  1. i bought alloys once which turned out to off been in a crash, think on was buckled and the other had a flat bit in it
  2. mine has similar probs but only when cold and for the first couple of miles, goes away quite quickly and drives fine i know my coilpack or leads are a bit dodgy as when they get wet they spark where they shouldn't
  3. i'd actually rather drive the cav with stick on vinyl tbh
  4. oh right, i'm with you now :) Sorry folks
  5. what i don't get it how it removes dead bugs and poo? surely your just rubbing poo all over the car till its thin enough not to see?
  6. i bought that revell one for £26 only a month or so ago, i see some are still on ebay so unless they have been made obselete very recentely i would imagine they still availiable
  7. i know, i think i've spent about £200 since getting the corrado :lol: and its not a feather duster, i'm told its a meguairs high class whoopie doo microfibre made up to sound good cloth :lol: basically it wipes stuff, quite a thing don't you think? i only really use a few bits too, wax should last a year and there's no point polishing it anymore.
  8. i went out and could only find a meg NXT speed detailer, i assumed that was the same thing so bought it
  9. is it too late for my last minute entry?
  10. am sure i've seen scirrocco models for sale too
  11. there was a big thread about this somewhere, i bought one thru the website mentioned in that thread
  12. thats really gash :lol: its like putting stone wheels on a scirocco imo
  13. quite near me, i may try and see what he has
  14. well at least i think its leather? are some fake leather then on the back?
  15. every inch of my seats are leather?
  16. how is QD used? thats another thing i don't really know, but the odd bit i've heard about it makes me think i should get some
  17. sounds like you bought one with all the common probs, i spose thats ones way to make sure you don't encounter them :lol:
  18. thats what i was told earlier, that theres no point in dc2 then srp, i was just trying anything really :lol: i'm hoping its just a case of too much product on my dads car, am going to try again at weekend. i think the stuff on my car is from bad machine polishing that the previous owner/bodyshop did
  19. as for the poo, it won't budge, looks like a hole in the laquer almost
  20. i posted this on detailing world this morning "lastnight, i tried to get rid of some bird poo marks on my dads new audi, and after i'd finished am sure i could see hologramming (i only did half the bonnet, so i could the difference) and the side i had a go at, looked weird now in the light, am quite worried, my dad ain't noticed yet. what i did: -wash -clay -megs scratchX applied with megs foam applicator (yellow disc) -Megs DC1 applied with megs foam applicator (yellow disc) -Megs DC2 applied with megs foam applicator (yellow disc) -Autogylm resin polish applied with the megs even coat applicator (white furry block) -then collinite 915 applied with megs foam applicator (yellow disc) all removed with a megs terry cloth, yellow thing am i using the right stuff to apply these products? and what has lead to hologramming as i have it all over my car
  21. rear lights really suit it, am not normally a fan of smoked either :)
