If both cars were parked up next to each other, I'd probably take the keys for the Clio is I wanted a 'fun' drive, as its so nimble, its awesome fun! The Golf however is a much better allrounder, and with a few mods, its a pretty potent weapon tbh! It's remapped too, so is running 314hp...

Have you taken your plate off it mate? I swear I saw you on J11 the other day? I've thrown a few K at the Golf and am happy with it now - it easily matches the Meg for handling and is a fair bit quicker and not quite so dull, so it'll stay for a while until I see what is happening with me...

Me again :D:p Today I had delivered some lovely S3 calipers, which have been refurbed in red and included R logo covers, DaveB1970 J-Hooked 345mm discs and everything else needed to get them working on my Golf Edition 30. The standard set-up on the Edition 30 is very poor for the performance...

Oh yeah! Be good to see how a proper camera compares to this thing I've got tbh! Get some shots of the Golf too maybe? Getting new brakes on Thursday, so maybe after they are fitted?

Hi Arran, it's the one in Walsall... The RCD510 is the touch screen head unit thingy - no sat nav, but looks loads better than the piece of crap they put in as standard :)

SteBurns! What's new?

Nice one, be sure to get some pics up! If you are free one night, I'll come try my new cam if you like, meet at Tesco in Dudley :)

Sorry... more pic whoring! Edition 30 Golf... Sorry for all of the pic whoring, but I'm impressed with my new camera, so took a few more pics with it tonight and thought I'd share a few of them. My car is a bit dusty tbh and needs a wash really, but isn't too bad... DSC00183 by RussZS...

Glad you were happy Luke, thanks for the feedback. It's a great combo for the money! Was Tardis okay in that bottle?

I'm not sure tbh :( I can't get over how good it is for £370!

Me again! Having more of a play with my new camera and I must say I'm astounded by the difference between this and my Pana TZ6, particularly with taking pictures in anything but natural daylight. All pics were taken in Auto mode Car was washed today and topped with CQuartz ReLoad. I...

Basically, prep is key this time of year as you want your wax or sealant to bond properly, so that it lasts as long as possible. Ideally, something like clay - cleanse - protect I have recommended a few people lately go for Auto Finesse Tripple to cleanse then top that with Collinite 845...

You won't get better than Jay@Miglior tbh, if he's close to you, then I'd check him out.

Roy, you should be on commission! Lol! I wouldn't recommend getting the swirls corrected at this time of year, especially if you don't have access to a pressure washer easily. Brown Bear is right though, you're best off at least using a pressure washer at your local petrol station (don't go...

What car and colour is it? Albi R27?

Great work, very sharp finish indeed!

Definitely worth doing these days, given how much road salt gets lamped down, its nasty stuff!

Paint for 6 months, glass for 18 month to 2 years! The wheels, probably 3 months or so. Ideally something like GTechniq C5 is needed on wheels, which lasts 1 year+, but at £30 or so, most people don't want it done...

It's getting nippy out there folks! This morning saw me spend 4 hours or so decontaminating, then protecting the paintwork on this rather nice VW Scirocco 1.4 TSI. The aim of the day was to clean the paintwork as best as possible in the time given and lay some protection down for Winter...
