Whats the best polish for our trophys? I mean stuff we can put on, not stuff that has to be done by a pro, and lasts a while?

I thought I'd post this up here for people to just be nosey at. I can't take credit for the write up, but have a read....:cool: The pictures honestly do not do the car justice now imo. The paint feels so smooth it's unreal. I haven't felt paint so smooth on a new car in all honesty...

My car is Capsicum BLACK at the moment and i'm feeling a little guilty about it after seeing all the sparkling trophies on the site. Can anybody recommend any decent detailers in and around south east London/Kent/Essex areas? Think i might get it sorted in the next few weeks!!! Cheers...

Gritted my teeth and ventured into the cold today,,,,,bucket in one hand..sponge in the other, the aim..........Top make No 190 red again after one dirty weekly drive to work! :idea: half way through and my hands were starting to drop off so a coffee and a pic were in order and after a big...

Want to keep the Trophy looking good. Think my car's had permagaurd recently applied to it (only had the car a couple of weeks). Anyone else had this done? How often do you need to do it? Any other tips for keeping it tip top? Thanks, Karl.

Hi all, Just noticed the other day that my discs were VERY uneven. There are a lot of groves and this has made the braking squeek and braking hard very untrustworthy. My question to you knowledgeable people is whether it's simply a case of replacing the discs & pads or is there something...

We came out of a friends house last night & the beading on the car looked great, so tried my best to bag a couple of decent pics. Not bad considering she hasn't been waxed for almost 3 months :wink:

I'm selling my excellent Technics SL-DZ1200 unit to help free up some cash as I don't use it that much these days. I first bought this late August 2006 so is under a year old and is still under manufacturers warranty. It is in excellent condition and has very few surface marks. It has been...

Can anyone recommend a good wheel wax? something that lasts a while [-o<

Steve's old Trophy is quick, but got me thinking who has done the most mods to their Trophy. If you want to add to thread just summarise with approx cost...

Sold my Trophy yesterday :( And so i needed something as a short-term car until my new Meggy arrives which is gonna be a few months away yet. So rather than be sensible and buy a cheap diesel, i opted for something to deliver some fun and stumbled across this very tidy PH-Quick. We bought it...

During service noticed inner edges of discs had rust build up, so do i replace with stock items or different?? Can get standard set up for £140. Don't want anything too agresive or wheel lacquer eating as i use car everyday. On CS they seem to rate 'green stuff' amongst many?

Got the car ready for FCS just thought id treat the arches + suspension + wheels in and out! also engine bay and inside thought id take a few progress pics and some dark pics!! took a while :? also a nice Maguirs gold class coat of wax to keep the rain away...

i've never clayed a car before and wasn't confident enough to try it for the first time on the Trophy. also i wanted the paintwork correcting - especially on the bonnet. so i decided to get it done professionally. after looking around on the web i selected Gary Funnell from the aptly named...

...after 2 weeks of owning my car its stopped rainning :lol: Just got back from work, sun is out and my clio is absolutely filthy - actually so bad it looks quite good :? However, gona give it a good jet wash and polish today so that its looking spick and span ready for its trip to the...

Ok, this may sound a bit random or stupid. But how does everyone dry their cars after a wash and what products do they use to do it. I have my car permagarded and want something to get her nice a dry after a rinse. I have never been a big fan of the shammy leather but maybe its cos i bought...

Managed to somehow drop a Zymol kit into my belongings when I left my job at Porsche last week.....so spent today applying it. Nice results I think, although God knows how a 911 buyer can pay £499 for it......total outlay today, Nish...hehe.

With the start of the summer weather appearing it was time to get the Trophy looking good again. The previous owner obviously had some kind of fascination with car washes judging by the swirlmarks in the paintwork :roll: Having never PC'd a car myself I opted for the slightly lazyboy...

Whats the best price for a permaguard treatment and does anyone have any complaints bout it?

Hi Just like to say a big THANKS to Graham at stockport for the superb job he did on mine yesterday. The screen was that clear I thought he'd taken it out :shock: :lol: Got lots of "wow thats looks clean !" on motorway journey home (tup) Well worth a visit.

I wasn't planning to do this detail so early on in the year but a friend needed some photos for his new business and I acquired a new camera for Christmas so thought this weekend was a good opportunity as any. The weather forecast looked workable despite a shower on Saturday afternoon that...

Decided to try and give my wheels a thorough(ish) clean today. They have brake dust in the corners where the spokes join the rim and the odd stain from what I can only assume is wet brake dust coming from inside the wheel. Anyway, the car was permaguarded before I bought it - do they do the...

Saw these on Ebay and thought i'd post the link (have a look at the sellers other items too), if people still want keyrings it might be worth contacting the guy - a little piece of carbon fibre with the Trophy logo would be pretty cool.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-renault-CLIO- ... dZViewItem
