Very nice, and extremely clean! you should definitely keep those alloys on, they're the best look for the 9N and 9N3 IMO 8)

Amazing shine! How do you manage to get so many punctures?
I'm sure I've seen you mention punctures in at least two other sets of tyres Jeff!

mc iver 9n - the 12 step clean has been done 3 times now too, so its building up nicely

beezer diesel - yeah mate, got punctures in the previous tyres on the comps and my monza's previous tyres too, im sure someone is leaving me mines :(, as for pic quantity, just get a bit snap happy

tim - cheers mate, they will be back on soon enough, just want to get a new tyre not get it repaired first

I have some of the collinite wax. I've got the one recommended for darker cars though!!! Have only used it once so still finding out how good it is but i'd recommend making sure its still light when you come to buff off the excess!!! When it got light i'd missed loads of places so it was then i bit of a task removing the wax!!! :oops:

tesco car park pictures - if you cant beat them, join them - every little helps

and white gti polo - no you cant, as the polo gti uses fabia calipers and carriers, not golf4 ones, so you need new calipers, carriers, retaining clips, hoses, pads and disks to to the change
