Welcome to our new sponsor Lecatona, a brand dedicated to enhancing performance for VAG group sports cars, including SEAT, Audi, Volkswagen and Škoda. Specializing in High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) upgrades.
ThanksHoping to get it even cleaner when better weather comes (if it does in Scotland!)
lol, it wont...
Went out today with my bf for a shot of his new car as he has kindly put me on the insurance I really liked it, but it's just not a Leon!
Then we ended up going out for a drive with his Dad's new car, and ended up getting a good shot when a Steam Engine came past!
I know these aren't a SEAT but at least they are VAGs!

I know, we went all the way to Carluke to get my bf's one (the platinum one), which was a 340 mile round trip, twice!
And the Mk6 GTI is his dad's which I apsolutely love! Wish it was mine lol
Yeah they go pretty quick too. Would like one like your bf next but think i will be buying my 225r next year now.
The GTI is 207bhp.
Yeah, its a nice bodykit, I haven't seen much of them going about but maybe thats just me! Its the Caractere RS kit, and its got rep bbs ch 18s, which if I get my way WILL be on my cupra lol

Yeah, I just love them. They are only 4 months old and theres a small kerb on the front n/s so Im getting it refurbed for him. Im a perfectionist when it comes to cars, want them to be perfect lol. Decided on what colour to get your rs4s done in? Anthracite looks great imo

If i was keeping my car i was going to get them done in Anthracite,agree looks nice
Don't think i am going to bother now tho spending to much on it tbh. LCR next year for me,would rather get one of those then spend money on that
I totally agree with you Wayne, Im trying not to spend money on my one as really want a LCR. So must start saving!
Nipped down to Polished Bliss last night and ended up buying a fair few products, so decided to try them out today as Im on holiday from work.
This is the jist of what I bought:
So first step was a wash, using my new foam lance. Living on a farm makes it harder to keep your car clean, so I think I will benefit from this in the long run, especially using it as a pre-wash. I used Meguiar's Hyper Wash for this.
Next up, was to try and remove the tar from the paint, mostly on the tailgate and back bumper. For this I used Autosmart Tardis. Notice in the second pic the tar, although most of you will probably first notice I have lost the 'a' from my cupra badge. I have a new Ibiza mk4 'C U P R A' badge on order.
Then it was down to business!
Decided to take out seats and give the runners ect a good clean.
Gave the exhaust a clean using Autosol.

Now, onto the bodywork.
Firstly, I did my first ever clay bar! For this I used Meguiar's Quik Clay Kit.
After that, I masked off all trims.
Then I gave it a quick polish, using Turtle Wax Colour Plus in Red.
Finally, a wax. Never done a wax before either, for this I used Raceglaze Signature Series '55' Natural Carnauba Wax.
So, the results!
Please leave your opinions as Im new to detailing and would appreciate and advice/criticism. Here's hoping I can do better next time!
