Re: Meguires Vs Autoglym

Some good suggestions coming up here. Does that Natty's Blue stuff have a tint or is it just the name?

I've heard tinted waxes are just a gimmick and give no real difference over regular stuff.

Signature quote?

Is that pure carnauba stuff or synthetic? The pure stuff is a b1tch to get off isn't it?

Re: Meguires Vs Autoglym

I may just do that. But with the price of Megs stuff I think I'll finish off the NXT first!

Any chance of some pics of your half and half?

Re: Meguires Vs Autoglym

I just started a thread on detailing too. Must be the weather :) http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?p=1503251#1503251 I'm a big fan of the Meguires stuff. Ultimate Compound followed up with NXT wax has always worked for me in the past but I think I need a proper single action polisher to get...

Re: LEEDS area meet

I've heard of that. Didn't realise it was a regular thing though.

What time does that kick off then?

Re: NW May Meet: Sunday 19th - bit of a run out

Just coincidence then. I thought I was going to be forever segregated to the back of the bus as the light blue minority!

It does make for good pictures though. Something for future meets maybe? You're not alone in your OCD Martin!

Re: NW May Meet: Sunday 19th - bit of a run out

Is there a reason why we seem to have been colour coordinated in the convoy?

Is this a meet thing I'm not familiar with or just a huge coincidence?

Re: NW May Meet: Sunday 19th - bit of a run out

Good times. Great to meet you all and thanks again for the bulb Roger (I'm rubbish with names so if it's not Roger then I apologise!)

Had the camera with me but didn't get anything good really.

Here's a short clip of the arrival for what it's worth!

Re: What's it worth? MR2 Rev3 Turbo (LPG - Rev 5 Looks)

I'm not a fan of any body modifications really but those side skirts great.

It's a bit too yellow and importy (insurance) for me but I would agree around the 2.5k mark to the right buyer.

Re: [Mk2] [NA] I am a dipstick

According to my grease monkey I've (apparently) got one on the way. I think it must be coming the long way around from Japan though!

I guess mine must be plugged then. At least I hope it is, I've done over 1000 miles without it!

Re: [Mk2] [NA] I am a dipstick

The whole tube is missing.

Is the concern about leaks? I haven't really looked to see if the hole has been plugged or not.

Re: [Mk2] [NA] I am a dipstick

Why not? Is it that something may have dropped into the sump?

My car didn't have a dipstick tube in it when I bought it and have been driving around fine for 2 months now. (I've got one on the way though obviously)

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Brake Pad and Disc Upgrade

But... but.. they're so pretty :cry:

Maybe I'll just go OEM and spend the change on petrol. I don't need any extra performance anyway.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Brake Pad and Disc Upgrade

I'll be putting some sexy Black Diamond ones on mine soon. Just a shame the contact area doesn't stay black.

I haven't used them before but they have pretty good reviews around the net and don't cost the world!
