What did you and your MK2 do today?

[holmefield]

Looks good, out of interest how much is the machine polishing costing?

£60.00 for just a stage 1 polish all over.

Getting ready to take mine for its second service at Western Seat, hope they are better than Arnold Clark !!

Also picking up my new FR badge for the front bumper

Not a bad price really.

Not a bad price really.

Hes been @ it 4hrs & it sparkles bigtime, theres still sone marks in the paintwork but mine would need a stage 2 polish and about 8hrs to get rid of some of the deep scratches...

Car done, snapped spring on back so needs to go back in under warranty.

Just puts a hold on lowering until fitted

If you're getting it lowered anyway then don't bother getting a new spring under warranty. It's highly unlikely you'd put the standard suspension on to sell the car! It wouldn't be worth the time/money to swap the springs to sell your used lowering springs for £50-£100.

Yeah that's true but on the chance of me not having the car long I'll wait a week or two to be done.

I do take your point.....

Personally I'm not a fan of any of them

 

[Crafoo]

Me either, don't think they suit the Leon.

New windscreen fitted. Does anyone know if the rain sensor is just clipped in position as it needs to be moved a little bit .
