Hey guys, I've been looking at cleaning products for the Recaro seats. I've got a good leather cleaner + Autoglym interior shampoo, but I'm looking for a specific cleaner for the Alcantara and also a brush. Can anyone recommend anything?

Am wanting to spend a day on 007 in the next few weeks, a kind of 'spring clean' that i put all of my car through in Feb/March, especially now the roads seem a bit tidier after all the kacky weather. I valeted professionally for 6 years, but that was about 5 years ago now so i am a bit out of...

It was a lovely day today. So the car got a wash - but the new aqua dry is rubbish. I've always used Auto Glymm aqua dry but it seems to be made of a different material and they've put holes in it too. It's nowhere near as absorbent as it used to be requiring me to go over a panel 3 times and...

I know a few of you are into it on here, I was wondering if any one can suggest any decent routes around the Lakes. I've been to Ambleside for a walking holiday but never MTB up there... Any thoughts!? Cheers!

Just got the car about 3 weeks ago, number 272 and I am a happy man. It's in great nick, drives like a dream and certainly packs a bit more punch than a 1.2 polo... One thing I have noticed is that the paintwork in and around the renaultsport lettering on the boot lid is looking a bit grotty...
