Had 2 new front tyres fitted. Feels nice having grip again lol.
Was going to try a different tyre, but just got the eagle f1s again.

Why not add a little 3 mile jog to your gym trip?
I do so little miles these Potenza's are never gonna need replacing! They will probably begin to perish before they run out of tread lol

Cos I'd be fooked and just want to come home. Cardio isn't one of my strengths lol.

Well clever me ... when I was swapping over the innards of my remote key to the new case - I managed to break the transponder trying to remove it!
I found Burgh Locks in Bruntsfield, Edinburgh - so I popped over there this morning. The guy is brilliant, he said he could fit a new transponder and code it right there and then for £65. I asked if he could supply and code another flip key and he said yes, for £135. If I bought another coded flip key he said he wouldn't charge me the £65 to fix my original.
So within about half an hour I had 2 working flip keys for £135.
He is mobile too so can come out to you if needed. Highly recommended.

Cleaned my car with waterless car wash yesterday...... i was skeptical......... but wow. Anybody tried it ? Im a 2-bucket method man myself but this has just changed the way I washtook all of 30 mins and it shines more than ever ha
What product did you use Matt?
If it works like the things I've seen advertised, I'd be sceptical too, it seems completely alien to clean a dirty car with a cloth and some polish before washing it first.
What wheels did you get ?
It's called "Greased Lightning" can be had for £15 per bottle.
I urge you to try it, I was literally laughing my head off at how good/effortless it was.
Cheers Matt, will definitely try it, but waiting for a date for my mate to detail the car first.
As for the wheels, if I've got to wait, it's only fair you do too
!
the showroom spray stuff? ive got a bottle of it in the garage, its good stuff but i spray it on before washing the car with the two bucket method. Im too nervous to wipe off dirt without water, plus if you get it over your vinyl plastic'y bits like around the window and dont wipe it off well enough it leaves stain marks. I could see myself using it if the car was only lightly soiled tho, which is actually never in winter lol
I used the JML Mantis cleaner on my old Kia, looked great and surprisingly I didn't notice any scratch marks from it, but then I only used it a few times and the car was never very dirty when I used it.
It's just where some parts of the seats are wet and some are dry. Seat can be taken out in 20 mins, so easy as its only 4 bolts.
Hhhmm are you telling porkies Dan are you sure you've not been having some fun time with a lady

Talking of damp patches on seats![[:@]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/furious.gif "Furious [:@]")
I had to spend 20 minutes scrubbing and cleaning my passenger seat last night, as my little boy (who is currently potty training) decided just after climbing in to the front of the car upon arriving home, that it would be an excellent time to empty his bladder
Needless to say i wasn't very happy but what can you do. I now have one very wet, but very clean front passenger seat. To be fair i think he was more upset than i was
Kids eh
