  1. I went for Nest, because i wanted something that was more globally recognised, not developed by British Gas. The automatic home/away assist based on your phone location is great...you have to make sure the app is on everyones phone though I've also got a LightwaveRF system for lighting control. recently bought an amazon echo plus, which does have some home hub applications (it will control Philips HUE without a further hub) and will happily integrate with my nest and lightwaveRF dimmers. next you want to look into the IFTTT (if this then that) app for your phone...you can program, condition based subroutines for your Nest and other devices....for example, if the outside temp gets to low, like below zero, my nest automatically bumps the temp up by a degree to keep things toasty!!

  3. Good job...i had to mess around with mine to get it to all work properly....now its all active and has been for a year.....
  4. Now Sold.. Mods please Lock
  5. in all honesty, none of the products he tested were considered bad....even the last place was Megs Gold Class, which isn't bad at all
  6. 3 bucket wash for me...wheels first, always...nothing used on wheels goes anywhere near the paintwork. i also have Black Microfibres for drying the wheels after....so even when they are clean, i know not to use the black microfibres on anything else
  7. yes he does know this...suds is not the be all and end all...in fact one of his long term favourite is Bilt Hamber autowash, and thats not particularly foamy, but is very slick on the panels
  8. Jon is pretty well on the money for most of his product tests and reviews.....he is usually very thorough and sometimes when it comes to the overall winner of things, where its soooooo close between two products, he does have to get picky, and sometmes it is a stupid thing that separates the two , such as a packaging failure. he doesn't habitually use B&Q orange buckets for his car cleaning i believe!! he needed to do a lot of side by side "foaminess" tests and B&Q buckets are 0.95p .
  9. nice pics Dave, that my job for a couple of weekends time...full clean, and wax, and change the wheels over, plus I've also got to do the Offsprings car (FN2 CTR) , as he is working away (in the Caribbean!!, on a cruise ship!!)
  10. Chris, Have a word with Mark @SHEZZA he recently had some work done on his rear arches, and they did a superb job, and i dont think they used arch cuts
  11. Selling a set of Touring rims (and tyres). these came in my roadster when I got it and swiftly changed them for Rays. It was my intention to keep these as Winter wheels in place of the Rays. But now I have the Purple rims. The rays will go on over the winter So if you are looking for a cheap set of rims for over winter (they will need new tyres as currently fitted with a mix of ditch finders, 1 re04, 1 re05, 1 accelera and 1 Nankang NS20) if if you are bothered about the look they could do with a refurb but if not they are fine!! collection from Bexleyheath North Kent only Now SOLD!!!
