    They should go on but they don't!

    My apologies guys, I never got any notifications that this had been replied too... Stupid tapatalk... It was resolved. The original bolts weren't long enough for the aftermarket wheels so I went back and changed the bolts I'd bought to ones that had "wobbly collars" and that resolved it...

    They should go on but they don't!

    Right guys I'm confused! My 197 currently has 17 inch standard wheels, M14x1.5 bolts with a 19mm hex head and a 60 degree wobbly collar. I bought a set of wheels to run while I refurb my standard ones. They are 18 inch with a pcd of 5x108. I also bought spigot rings (73.1 to fit the inner...

    Check your scuttle drain!

    It's one of them jobs that so easily gets forgotten but can cause such heartache when it goes wrong. I only bought the car in August so I'm still working through it, glad I decided to stand outside in the freezing cold on Sunday now [emoji23] Sent from my G8141 using Tapatalk

    Check your scuttle drain!

    So I was doing a full decontamination on Saturday. Happily removing leaves and grime from anywhere I could access before claybaring the whole car, I unclipped the scuttle panel and low and behold a blocked drain... wiper motors swimming, electrics doing backstroke, the odd water boatman casually...

    Things I don't like

    You lot make me feel so much better about my paintwork obsession. I swear, I tell people in work about how pe'ed off I am that I had to clean the car AGAIN today and they look at me like 'but has it still got 4 wheels?' These people just do NOT understand how precious our paintwork is to...

    Things I don't like

    I wouldn't mind so much if it was normal dust but no! It's plaster... There's lime in that sh*t, I was having kittens about my paintwork [emoji23]... Honestly think I've got issues... Sent from my G8141 using Tapatalk

    I have another one... Spending 5 hours detailing the car on Sunday only to do a late shift on Monday and walk out of work to the biggest bird sh*t you've ever seen on your bonnet [emoji34] Sent from my G8141 using Tapatalk

    Things I don't like

    Sitting in work, staring at my clio in the car park, watching the time tick away... Waiting... Waiting... Waiting to finish... Is it 10pm yet? [emoji58] Sent from my G8141 using Tapatalk

    Parcels

    It's proper frustrating! I gave up trying to get things delivered to my house, end up travelling to timbucktoo just to get it back. Now I get it delivered to work, the bosses hate it but quite frankly I don't care [emoji23] Sent from my G8141 using Tapatalk

    Lets talk about dogs

    I thought, since I'm new to the forum I should introduce my creatures too... Left back is Bonnie the Victoria Bulldog, 9 years old, still going strong. Spends most of the day (and night asleep) gets up for food and walks. Right back is Ro-Sham-Bo the Border Collie, 8 years old, ADHD dog...
