  1. Do you have any paint left on your car Mart? Should be down to the gunmetal anytime now. Thats the nicest colour of primer anyways I agree, red oxide is a little '1980s' for me.
  2. Avoid Megs Metal Polysh etc as it cuts. Basically I'd get a good sealant on and then wash often with a mild shampoo. Topping up the sealant as often as you can. The main thing you want to avoid is stone chips or kerbing on a lacquered rim, once the water gets in the wheels need a refurb as it can't be polished out. I'm sure Tim at Envy Valeting will have great recommendations and products for the job.

  4. Depending if you want to fix it or make them disappear..... The likes of Auto Glym Super Resin Polish - most people have a bottle of it lying about - can be used to remove a lottle of the scratches and then will fill the rest. It's easy to use and does work well.
  5. Are you using a lower quality camera than usual Tim? The finished images don't look as sharp as they normally do..... The images aren't showing the best of your work if I'm being honest. I know exactly how it will look (regularly using Jeffs on a solid white car) but the finished pics don't look right. Maybe it's the lighting in the building!
  6. It's very common. 1st to 2nd when cold should be very slow for smoothness and ease of change.
  7. This one is ok...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCL6xXzyiTA&feature=related
  8. I used to have two. Don't now though. Anyway, I didn't condemn it. I was just ensuring that the OP knew the consequences.
  9. It is possible however it is illegal. A fine can be issued and also if they decide to they can reclaim the reg number.
  10. Zed is in the background! Zed again... Crap pics though!
  11. Alright Spoony! The black edition comes in two colours, black and Quartz grey. The quartz was exclusive to this car. It also comes with smoked wheels, a nice dark red leather and calipers.
  12. Yes, exhilarate in Scotland. They actively encourage you to enjoy yourself as long as it's safe to do so.
  13. Torrential rain, people getting in and out..... I think EVERY car would steam up with that.
  14. This has come up before. Now, I believe if you have to ask then you're heart isn't in it. Go for the one that gives you most wood. If you analyse it then you might aswell give the voucher to me.
  15. I wonder if the wheels belonging to 'Mega' on that thread is the same ex beemer owner Mega that's a member here.....
  16. Normally with braided lines and fresh high quality fluid the car would feel amazing...
  17. I ran a group buy on them a few years ago. Looks like they don't need the business these days!
  18. Do you not need the PAC thing to make the Bose amp work correctly????
  19. Does a 318i have power in the first place???? [/unhelpful] I know there are a lot of knowledgeable people on here however would this be best answered on a relevant BMW forum?
  20. Search on here for 'Jockland Hoon'
  21. If you can sell the other parts too then maybe more....
