Re: Not going fast around roundabouts no more !!

My combo of Klasse All In One polish, and Collinte 476s always brings up a spotless shine.

A solid way of getting rid of the fade would be to either buy or employ someone to run a machine polisher over it. A detail normally cost around £200 (same price as the kit), but this would completely rid ...

sure its not ovni yellow, usual common colour for the cupra r

because there is no lacquer on the paint then obvious i good polish will bring it back up, but if there are panels that are still very shiney then they have all been damaged and painted with a solvent and lacquer so they wont fade ...

70k is an awful lot for a clutch, (What engine du have?) If it's not that I'd seriously consider one, (For the GTi) GSF do a SACHs clutch kit for under £90 delivered - Quality price. If not GTi, then I think the options are broader and cheaper, not 100% sure though.

Anyway as I said it's likely ...

Just done over 70 what?

If it was the pedal box, you'd feel a creak in the clutch as you depressed it. A generally harsh or scatty feeling clutch will relate to the clutch itself or the cable more likely.

Has it had a clutch change before? If so when, if not what's your milage?

sorry tim, meant ...

Are HID's out of the question? If not you can get a set for less than a 100 notes and look the nuts.

IF they are you could get some philips highvisions that give 80% more light but without changing the voltage. Havent had them on my car but heard they are really gd but nt as gd as HID's ...
