  1. put a post in the car care secton mate, alot of serious detailers go on there. from what i have read, if the marks aren't to deep, can't feel it with your finger nail, should be able to machine polish out. they know best in the other section, will be able to tell you what is required.
  2. had the prodrive alignment done on mine a while ago, makes a difference. recently fitted alloy drop links all round and a whiteline 22mm adjustable rear arb. biiiiiiiiiig difference nice easy job too firms up the ride a little but nothing unbearable. got arb on middle setting, nice and neutral. when it does slide it all slides together.
  3. is it 600 or 750? just mot'd mine ready for the scorching summer
  4. fine looking wagon mate
  5. one of the first mods i done to mine was get rid of the gear stick gaitor!!. looks good.
  6. live average speed cameras going northbound, all the way to the booths. they are also planning to install them south bound over qe2 bridge. nothing in the tunnels though
  7. looking good mate, lights make a huge difference.
  8. for anybody who uses them, found out this morning the parts and servicing has now moved to the car sales on the main high street. bit of a pain to park there though.
  9. is your car an ra model or a model with different gearing. even if it was built up from scratch, shouldn't crunch between gears. you said on you first post the box was warranted, if that's the case, take it back and don't leave until sorted. don't take any excuses like poor oil or running the box in. if the synchro hub is in a good condition it should do it's job and allow a smooth crunch free change.
  10. hello mate, did they say how reconditioned the box was, was it stripped and checked or just an old box from a scrapped car with the oil changed. many companies idea of recon varies from a full strip and rebuild to wiping over the outside with a rag. if your not changing gear overly fast i would suspect a worn synchro between the gears which changing the oil will not cure, may only mask. find out from them the history of the old box and what the did to it before resale. good luck. if you not happy with the answer then take it back.
  11. camskill do new sensors for £89.
  12. they are your rear lateral links, as dazzler said, allows adjustment to camber angle, probably stiffer than standard links. tsl sell perrin items, the same sort of thing.
  13. fitted my front and rear whiteline alloy drop links this afternoon, just been out for a spirited test drive, have to say i'm very impressed, another worthwhile mod done to the wagon. just broke the news to the wife that i now need a new rear anti roll bar
  14. A BIG FOR WILSONS OF ROMFORD. DONE A CAM BELT SERVICE ON MY CAR LAST WEEK. NO PROBLEMS PICKING WHICH JOBS THEY DID AND WHICH I DONE OFF OF THE SERVICE SCHEDULE. VERY GOOD QUICK SERVICE. GAVE A 15% DISCOUNT ON PARTS AND LABOUR. MILES CHEAPER THAN MY LOCAL SUBARU DEALER. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
