Turtle Wax's WAX IT WET! Great invention. I used to use it because it's a great time saver and with regular use builds up a great wax barrier. Anyone else use it? Id wash the car with a car shampoo, rinse it with water then spray Wax IT Wet and chamois.......great job!!! If I do use it...

Have just recently bought a cup and have found it great - handling is fantastic and feels more responsive than my 172ff. today was driving round a corner not particuarly fast and got the back right out, luckily i saved it but my heart was racing, really thought i was going to stack it has...

Couple of pics from Bromley today. Good turn out of Renaults of all shapes and sizes. Good to meet everyone who braved the weather. Very well organised event. Couple of non-clios too...

literally just about to go and colour code my car, firstly by rubbing down bumper etc, do u use the wet and dry paper with water or just dry. i need an answer please, anyhelp would be brill

Had some carbon vinyl left over so my son decided to do the front badge. Now I'll have to find that thread for removing the rear one.

Following a mishap with a slightly open window and heavy rain at some point overnight I have a wet drivers seat (172FF). How easy is it to remove the lower cover and foam? Self explanatory once I go out to have a look once said rain has stopped? Anything I need to be aware of in case I get a...

Looking to get some tyres on the front, what would you guys say that handles well and is good for the wet. I am currently using Uniroyal Rainsport, which is exellent but the tread didn’t last that long!

it appears that i have a leaking sunroof, i know this is a common thing on mk1's but how about mk 3's? ive taken the glass out, cleaned all the rubber seal, tried to clean down the little flood holes, woke up today to it just as bad, its on both sides on the corner of the sun visor and...

well what fun me and a mate had last night toook my 182 into a rather large open field and what can only be explained as mindless fun lol!!! lots of spinning round handbrake turns and generall mayhem lol car is neeeded a goood clean and was tomoro lol, but what fun i had heheh!!!

Just finished playing football and bottom of the direvway up to the 5-a-side was flooded. Anyway gone through slowly in second and tried pulling out still in second and then put foot down, it started picking up and then starts "chugging" and looses power. I put it up into third and it carried on...

Anyone used this before? it looks like a really good quality wax to give an ultimate wet look to the paint, which is what im really after.

Any other cup owners have mild steering issues when hitting high revs in the wet?

A mate of mine once told me that putting a car in the garage when its wet can do more harm than good. I guess its because the amibient air wont dry the car as effectively in the garage when it stops raining?? I cant see the problem if its wet as its raining, you then put it in the garage and...

192bhp Clio... Autocar testing 197... Williams Clio Cup Chris Harris' latest ride...

Hello there peeps my car was getting a bit dirty, so i got bored and washed it but i forgot my shammy leather so its still wet, went to my local industrial site to get some good contrast in the background.

hey people just in from the nightshift and i have too say its raining very heavy out there, just a word of warning drive safely

Anyone else? Post your 'in the rain' pics here! :approve:

Well i lifted off and naturally the back went light.lol. not very fast either around the island. What is the correct thing to do? I believe this would be a common problem in wet weather. I went to a car park to practice as I dont want to be caught out by silly mistakes.

But makes for some good piccys! Apart from Si, I missed all the CS lot, and got drenched taking some pics, worth it though. Did seem to lack something from years past. 200 odd pics are here - http://www.richtreen.co.uk/events/rallyday/index.html Canon 350D and a Canon 300mm f/4L IS...

Artic blue 182 in wetherspoons carpark in Moseley, south birmingham. On friday evening: Pic:

What's the finest grit paper you can get? I can only find p1500 in Halfrauds, can you get P2000 or 3000?

I was driving round yesterday and we had real heavy rain. Anyway this morning i have hoovered my car and found the footwell of the driver is absolutely soaking wet, well really, really damp. WTF! Anyone else had this?

was driving my 172 in the wet for the first time today and found it was understeering quite a bit, don't know whether it's the tyres (avon z 3's front and exalto's on the back) or just normal for the car? My old vts was a bit twitchy, but not as bad as the 172

hello i am after 2000 ,2.500 just need 2 sheets .

Roads are pretty much flooding here so I'm bored as hell stuck indoors, thought I'd pop out and get a few shots during a short break in the rain... Mondial shows up nice... and some overexposed B&W shots...

Someone posted a wet and dry guide in the past, but it was a bit long winded. Can someone give me a few basic steps on how to do it and what to use, please? Pics would be cool also. Purchased some 1500 grit from halfords today. Thanks

That is the question! I have basecoat on. Now to my previous knowledge I should not be wet sanding until clear coat is on? I have read conflicting views on here. Some people say wet sand after bascoat then laquer, some say dont even think about wet sanding basecoat, get the laquer on and then...

Well i spent several hours today washing and waxing my 182. It started raining half way through but i was determined so i finished it off. The exhaust looks and sounds the tits but it is deffinately restricting it so it is booked into prospeed for next friday to have a proper one made (well...

My brother's 1.2 '02 clio is taking in water somewhere and making the rear bench seat wet. Any ideas where I could check for a hole?!
