  1. No, I've never been out in one either, just going on what I've heard and read, and looking at that interior it looks far too comfortable
  2. Yeah, it does doesn't it prefer the DC2 also, more hardcore

  4. Cheers Thanks mate Ride is pretty good out on the main roads feels smooth as standard, back roads are a bit more bouncy though, especially the unadopted roads where I live
  5. Think I'm gonna need to wipe myself down after looking at that GTR lamb wool mitt are great, but you have to remember there is no cushioning like a sponge so you could make swirls if your too hard i do like them though i follow up with a full wipe down with a sponge after wards I never wash too hard, let the water do the work but I get what you mean
  6. Cheers buddy, yours looks pretty good for a wash only, (got some good reflections) I spent about 4 hours yesterday and finished off this afternoon. First up Autoglym custom wheel cleaner sprayed on and left for a couple of minutes, then agitated and rinsed off with power hose. Whole car rinsed with power hose, then washed with meguiars ultimate wash & wax (fancy one of those lambs wool mitts, any good?) rinsed again and dried. Then I went over the bonnet, doors and bumpers with the G3 scratch removal cream (stunning job on the bonnet). Then Meguiars deep crystal polish and put back to bed as it was getting dark. Today I went over with Meguiars deep crystal carnauba wax and cleaned the glass with clear vue I think it's called had it for ages and it does a fair job. Must admit I only go at it like that 2 or 3 times a year normally just a wash, wax, wheel clean and glass. Glad you like it
  7. There you go Shame the sun was going down, it was flipping like crazy in the sunshine this morning
  8. Just adding a couple of extra shots after a mega cleaning sesh
  9. By hand and it was bl**dy hard work, went on easy enough but getting it off took some work had to go out half way through to get another tub of elbow grease This one is not meant to be for major imperfections and seems to have done a fair job, just used it on the doors bonnet and bumpers.
  10. It's interesting how much work goes into some of them but amazing what you can do with not that much effort. I'm just trying to get rid of swirls, scratches and minor imperfections, just bought some g3 fareclear stuff gonna give that a go at the weekend, was going to give wheels a good going over too but just bought jonnyricers chronos so will wait till I get them off and do them properly How's yours going? got any new products?
  11. Bit of both, it's a good site some of it is a bit beyond my level though
  12. Ford Fiesta Supersport http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=239410 You've got me into this now James
  13. That's a great result, 17 more than standard, nice one
  14. Thanks guys I could be very tempted actually, so if you want to tell me how much I will give it some serious thought, although I may be killed for it, but what's life without a little risk Bang on James 55mm all round, makes me quite a lot actually
  15. How can anyone buy a car like that and just leave it for 2 years to get like that
  16. Thanks mate Yes, everything coppered up
  17. Finally a complete suspension upgrade MGzs shocks with eibach springs (cheers to Weetec for the springs) plus zs arb, all makes a massive difference, turn in so much better + less understeer = Here's a couple of before and after shots: Plus reconditioned rear calipers and new mintex pads, one side seized badly, check out the difference in the pads and finally a massive thanks to Jonnyricer for fitting it all last night you're a star mate
