Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** £1800, really? :/ just seems a lot to put into it if I'm going to sell it, if you get me.

quick question regarding selling my car..... hi, going to sell my 52 plate 172cup (79k miles), will tax and mot it prior to selling. Only "problem" with the car is that it needs a belt change/dephaser pulley........would this affect the sale price or not. How much would people think it's...

cheers guys...as for tidyness...its average I guess, theres a tiny dint in the nearside back quarter, and the front bumper is getting resprayed next week so hopefully will look mint in a couple of weeks :)

so how much would you sell it for.........I'm useless at this selling malark.

cheers Riley. How much would you say it would be worth then, 52 plate, 78k, I will tax and test too? Thanks

haha I can imagine!!!

Not sure tbh mate, maybe a diesel or maybe just a cheap runaround. Interested in the cup?

Hi, I'm thinking of selling my 172 cup. It's currently in the body shop as an old fart bumped the bumper but it needs cambelt/aux belt/dephaser pulley and a service. I'm just a little unsure whether to pay odd £600 odd for the above to sort it then sell it OR sell it as is? Thanks Tom

have you a pic of a 197 wheel mate? Tom

Mines booked in at NW Performance for Thursday for the same thing plus a service, engine flush etc mate..£570 Give Ryan a PM / email Tom

ahh I see.....good for getting a healthy tan then? haha. Cheers for that...just wondered. Wouldn't need one to see my swirls ha ha just wash it!

maybe a noob/daft/stoooooooopid question, but what are these used for?

cheers!

ok cheers fella.

ha ha I like it. Cheers for your tips toby, will look into it maybe next week. I don't mind budget wise so long as I'm doing it properly and can see inmprovements :) Thanks again.

what about a "how to" or instructions on how to do most of the above...sorry to be a pain btw. Cheers, Tom

I tried the 2 buckets last time I washed it, noticed a difference in the car and a huge difference in the soapy bucket lol, cheers.

Hi, I'll be honest...I don't really have a clue on car detailing. I wash my car and occassionally use SPR on it then I think "WOW..look at all the scratches etc" Can someone please help me in what stuff to use i.e. clay, wax and gloss? I had a read this morning and it seems to be like this...

verrrry nice

have you got a pic of that mate, just had a look my self......debating whether to do it or not :/ cheers

Your best bet is to find some spares fella or buy them already carbon wrapped. I got a front one from Chris Powell.....not sure if he's still doing them. Then that way you still have your shiny ones. Mines on a blue 172 cup but can try and get a pic up later if you want mate?

cheers Si, I will try that at the weekend too! :)

not yet mate no, will try and find out this weekend! Will let you know what I get....

mines doing a similar sort of thing mate, I just posted a new thread before. Dunn mentioned taking it to get full diagnostic check to find out the problem..... just to let you know :)

Cheers, where is a tdc sensor? and I think it's definitly the dephaser then. Although might be the other way around.....noisy when cold, not as bad once warm (whilst driving). Any ideas on a specialist mate, I live in Barrow in Cumbria.... Cheers

Hi, my car seems to occasionally not start (only recently), sounds a lot like a diesel, and just is running a little "off" to me. I don't have much experience with fixing cars but after what I've been reading I think it needs a set of plugs, also cambelt/aux belt with dephaser pulley too...

Cheers fellas...

ahh I see... Cheers Dave. Could you recommend what products to use with the machine in order to get rid of swirl marks/small scratches...? Ta

or... am I better off using the Ketrel DAS-6 ? Cheers

Can anyone recommend this to a "first time polisher" Thanks, Tommy
