  1. Cracking edition well done Bob and Steve [Y]
  2. All that dirt and grit must be bad for the car from a mechanical aspect.
  3. You would hope they read and view these forum posts and learn from what people want.

  5. I'm trying to get 2 I know that's more than 500 <----------------------------------------------- I reckon it's 900
  6. Nice car Andy, very nice. Looks like it's mint. Even though I have owned a scoob for nearly 2 years now, what is an RA? (I should know [:$]) What are the differencies between your new lights and the STi Lights? What BHP will the standard RA be? Did I read correctly that you have an oil leak? Hope it's easlily rectified mate. You'll probably have just as much fun on the moped as you will in the scoob, Well for approx 5 mins anyway lol. Cheers Lee P.S I too saw the strange double take on your head in the photo, it's the Iris in the eye that shows up as a mouth, quite an angry looking mouth lol
  7. That looks very good. They will sell many if it looks like that
  8. I had the choice of buying an aerosol or a hand spray type. I bought the hand spray which wasn't that smelly and could be easily aimed correctly.
  9. I'm bringing all my Car Care Products with me, if you bring a bucket and find some water you can use what's left in the tin. I used approx half of it. You will need a rag that can be soiled. Hope the weather is as good as it has been today.
  10. Tell you what supprised me when doing the cleaning. I initilally set out to just spray the full engine and bay with the gunk then spray water over it all to rinse it off leaving a clean finish. It was only after trying that I found it didn't quite work like that. I ended up using a paint brush and spraying the Gunk on to that and rubbing it in to the engine. After a few minutes of the gunk being on the grease I used an Old Leather to wipe off the dirt. I hardly sprayed water on to the engine. I used a Paint Brush, Old Leather a Hose Pipe and a Bucket. The bucket was used to rinse the leather. It was a very manual cleaning process using the brush and Leather. Is that how everyone else does it? Cheers Lee
  11. I like the older vids the best.
  12. Lol Love to go to Germany, I don't think I'd get the pass out [] Good to hear from you Warby, not seen you for a while. Last time we met we were looking at TVR's! I used Gunk Ultra for the clean and Gunk Laqure Spray for the finish. I don't think I will use the Laqure spray again, it makes the bay look falsely clean. It looked naturally clean before I sprayed it on. It's on now and will take some time for it to disapear. I used Gunk as Autocar website said it was the 2nd best one to use out of 7 cleaners. Maguiars being the best. Halfords didn't sell that. Overall I'm pleased with the result, I think some of the metal bodies i.e Aluminium Throttle Body needs polishing with some metal cleaner. What I am very pleased with is the actual engine bay surrounding the engine, that has come up a shiney blue, take a closer look behind the engine on the bulk head.
  13. Just added some more vids. 15 more to go.
  14. I've just updated my website, it's not done yet and at first impression it looks much the same, it's the Video Gallery that has new videos. I have more to come!
  15. Well I've spent approx 4 hours cleaning my engine ready for this Sunday [:S]. My fingers are cut and my back is killing me but I think it was worth it. Check out my Before and After Pics:-
  16. I didn't think you had to these days with the tolerancies being so much better than the old days.
