Hi guys. Been a busy few weeks so not been on for while! I've been thinking about replacing the Clio, and amoung the current selection of contenders is the E39 M5. Yes, I know its a BMW... Wankers, no indicators blah blah etc, (I'd say the same..). They are a very good car, in all areas, and...

Hi, Just after the best product/ways to remove soot build up on my exhaust. Im running a Yozzasport so its quite noticeable, it hasn't been on the car long and makes it look really old. Builds up quick too! Any good exhaust cleaners anyone know of? or is it just a load of elbow grease? Thanks.

Hi Guys, I've used various products over the years but what do you find is best for cleaning your alloys? Like my old Cup, i find the wheels on the Trophy very fiddley to clean between the spokes but am reluctant to spray with some of the chemicals i've used on regular alloys in case it takes...

Has anybody used this products? If so, any thoughts?

Need to vent! A couple of days ago I drove to the gym and parked in the quiet car park (only 3-4 other cars in it) as I'm paranoid about door-dingers. I come back out to see a still almost empty car park apart from some genius who decided to park their beaten up sh!tty Honda Accord within...

Briefly introduced myself in the newbies section last week. A week down on the ownership of No 427 and all is good. However someone has attempted to machine polish the car before me owning it and has made a right mess of the paint work, holograms and swirls all over the place. Marks left...

Here we go.. My original plan was to buy a 182 and upgrade the seats, suspension and wheels. But when I worked it out it was slightly cheaper to go all out and buy a Trophy. Number 214/500 42k Miles, FSH, MOT, Tax, VERY good bodywork for the milage, Ran smoothley, and a decent price. Yesss...

hi everyone, just after some help/advice really with regards to cleaning. after the t was purchased it was taken to a professional valeter as I could not clean the car because it had traindust(?) all over. When it came back the results were good. it has since had quite an extensive clean and...
