Well when the govt suggested getting rid of 1p and 2p coins the TV Went mad with all the 2p machine owners complaining it would kill the seaside so somebody in London does not like them.

That annoying point when your half way washing your car and your next door neighbour starts mowing their lawn...

It was nearly a walking down moment.

Anyway car in the garage to dry down and Meguires ultimate compound on and off, ready for tomorrow for a clay bar, polish and wax. The joy or detailing... Trying to clean the car when the sun's not out haha.

Cheers

I am only talking about the outside as the inside need to be rebuilt over time.

You are always welcome to a ride in the old girl

Passenger ride in your car lol it takes a while though...ive not physically managed to do the outside and inside in one day without dying...
Just curious if youve had to top your oil up in your cupra r?

Deciding the next engined car i want

A 2.0tfsi cdl or the new cupra 280/90 with the tsi engine

My bwj was a bit oil hungry but had no blue smoke.

Only thing is the mk2 cupra unlike audi/vw/skoda which had a top up oil light

bagged fr , k1 rep , 19s

You sure you can confirm 36mpg... That's some serious numbers you're talking about.

This is true, you can walk round the pond whilst you wait lol

Currently I've been checking oil every week and not had to top up yet (full service done in October last year) I guess it's all down to body shape.. I had the cash to get a MK3 but went for my MK2 as I preferred the shape, that's what I like about this sort of forum as everyone is has their own little projects. This car has been solid since I got it.

Snap!! Got exactly the same tool bag for my detailing bag. Great addition.
Bargin as it's only £12 lol it seems great minds do think alike.

Indeed I am but maybe they are a little out there for me lol where did you see this? In person or just on the net? Got a few peoples opinions and it's currently 3 to 1 that are pro changing.
