    Best way to clean the cylinder head

    Il have to dig out my old bottle of armoural tomorrow then. I used to use this stuff all the time on exterior plastic trim but found the Autoglym plastic stuff was better as it lasted longer. I guesss its like most things when cleaning If done on a regular basis it gets better each time. Paul

    Best way to clean the cylinder head

    It's a tricky one as the texture is really ruff so my metal polish creams don't work. As you say I think a brush is needed but what chemical liquid to use as I don't want to damage it in anyway :-/ Maybe an alloy wheel cleaner might work the one where you brush it on then leave for a little...

    WRC 2017

    Completely agree Locke. Only annoying thing for me is the lack of TT coverage on it as I only have Freeview I only get itv highlights. For me though the old school wrc cars will always be close to my heart watching them in my younger years but still today it's a great championship along with...

    Clio 200 FF with Cup Pack - is this a good deal?

    Totally agree that's the one of the reasons for modding is we all put a stamp on our own cars.but I'm glad mine didn't have the Recaros as I'd still be searching. The pic above is of my TT fitted with the Quattro sport interior, the Recaro seats were as solid as they get and was so difficult...

    Clio 200 FF with Cup Pack - is this a good deal?

    For me I'm 6ft 2' 15st and although I fit in them ok there just not my style. Plenty of vxr's running around with them and imo there just a little bit over the top for these cars. I can see there appeal if I was into track day cars I would consider them along with other suitable options to get...

    Clio 200 FF with Cup Pack - is this a good deal?

    That's crazy! I must be in the minority then as I prefer the standard seats with the renaultsport logo on. Surprisingly they hold you Nicely in the seat too. I'd only want bucket seats in a car if it was a race car lol! Paul

    Looking Fresh

    Agree it suits the tailgate nicely. To be honest I was surprised just how exspensive a genuine cup spoiler is! Coming from Audi and there crazy high prices I thought Renault would be a refreshing change for cheaper parts. Paul

    Looking Fresh

    I like the fact it looks more subtle than the cup version. Is it Oem? You can't beat black after a fresh coat of wax, looks awesome.

    Removing the centre silencer box

    :french: Nice!! :-). This is the problem I always have with modding my cars part of me says keep it standad while the other half knows my love for all things Motorsport and wants that sound or look, Just don't want that drone sound some have.

    WRC 2017

    Awesome video clip! Love the WRC. Blown away by the sheer talent and car control these guys have. Beats F1 any day. I also love the way the cars look with the wide side arches and spoilers. One of the reasons I love the cup spoiler give it that Motorsport look. Paul
