  1. £300 gets you into 2 stage correction money so youll be looming pretty sweet by the time its done. Equipment wise if you want to do it yourself youll probably need that amount to get the basic kit but it wont get you to the same finish. Zed paint is very thin so its worth having a paint depth gauge if you plan on cutting deep. Im in cheshire (and just about still a trader for another week or so i think) if you do need any professional help (booked out until mid may though) Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  2. The only reason it holds more water is because its not got any super/hydrophobic protectant on. Be careful using wax though as its been know to cause issues with ppf Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  3. Youll find as the speed gets taken up itll balance out and feel more comfortable. As with most things in life you get what you pay for. An expensive DA will be better balanced etc but will never give the results of an rotary. A rotary however is a dangerous tool in the wrong hands. Youll struggle to strike with a DA.....youll far more easily strike with a rotary (especially on Zed paint which is notoriously thin) Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  4. My knees and ankles are too knackered to train but i usually do HellRunner once a year (half marathon mud run) and occasionally the Chester half. Never found i got any faster and actually found no training but increasing fags and booze actually helped quite a bit (may of been the fact i was hitting the gym 4 times and week and playing footy 3 but im putting it down to fags and booze) Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  5. £260 quid for an oil drop fml. Lookers dont know their arse from their elbow with zeds either. Our mechanic at CBM automotive in sandycroft cares for a lot of zeds since ove introduced him to the group and with him looking after Revitups stock as well. You should try him for a quote.

  6. As per usual ill recommend a Maserati Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  7. Its real leather rob but all modern leather is to an extent fake. Old Analine leather was the actual hide you were looking at with dye on it. Modern leather is a fake grain with a flexible pigment for colouring and a lacquer on top. Its non porus in the conventional sense so conditioning it is either not possible or very difficult (depending on who you speak to). Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    My New Car

    The detailer whos prepping it showed some photos of corrosion on the suspension components and drive shaft yesterday i think. Shocking for a brand spanker. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  11. IBTL. Not used that one for a while 😂 Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  12. Chris serviced one at our place last week. Im sure he was sent the wrong belts twice by Euro 'anypartforanycarexcepthepartswedontstock' Car Parts Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  13. Please please please step away from the rattle can and get a blow in done by a decent painter. Dont waste your time mate Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  14. Round our neck of the woods Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  15. Performance might be better, but not fuel economy. https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/coldweather.shtml This is why i clean cars and leave the mechanic to fix them 😂 Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  16. I think id rather fork out for ppf than risk a paint shop doing a good job 3 or 4 times. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  17. Totally agree with this ^ Enjoy your cars otherwise they become stress not fun. Parking is such a huge emotive issue in the work place its not true. Especially when folk wait years for a space. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  18. Fuel economy if anything should be better in cold weather. Cold air is more dense meaning bigger bang. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  19. What brand is it. Surely its got a 12 month warranty? Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  20. I built a fort and we got twatted on red wine. Winning. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  21. Biccie had one as Graham said Dan. You know what he's like with cars.....nearly as much of a nerd as you so im sure he'll have a wealth of info Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  22. Id hazard a guess what you've done is bought an import that was registered in 2009 but manufactured in 2006 Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  23. He must of chopped it in at a garage somehwre then. New guy seems a nice enough lad. Likes his cars by the looks of it. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
  24. Off topic but a bloke keeps coming up on my FB as a suggested friend. Took a look at his profile, local lad, 5 local mutual friends and theres a zed on there with the bonnet up and some tidy looking hydrodipping. I thought bloody hell someones done a fair job on that. Then i thought.....hang on.....I did that!!! Its your bloody old car! Picked it up from a garage in Wycombe. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
