welcome to the club, youl enjoy the big X in this weather! i no my dad is B)

cheers for the good comments guys im itching to finish the whole car!!! but its basically a oversized ice lolly at the moment :P Andy , how much you willing to pay :lol:

i do agree with the insurance thing , however i did have my bike insured when i first got it, and tbh wasnt worth the paper it was written on, so binned it off. the thing with if you had to have insurance , how will kids afford to pay for it?

why thank you gav :P megs tech wax indeed does have fillers in, its not exactly a very durable wax though, i do use it but only on 'customers' cars for a quick shine. if i was you id nip to halfords and get some autoglym super resin polish which also has 'fillers' in. then go over with the wax id also polish one panel at a time then remove straight away, do the full car , then in this weather i would wax the full car, by the time you have gone round leave it for 10 mins and remove with a fresh microfibre cloth. should do the trick , although as said, tech wax isnt very durable so most likly wont last long :(

huyton in liverpool :D

seeing as its winter and not much detailing/valeting happens i thought id share a quick go on my e46 titan silver . ive only done the bonnet as havnt had much time to do the full works. any way last week i decided i had a spare half hour and some new products to have a go at :D first job was as usual to wash the car (full car) after drying i clayed the bonnet using autoglym clay. ( im only concentrating on the bonnet by the way) after claying i used demon shine with a microfibre for a quick wipe up of any mess. then it was onto dodo juice lime prime with a DA polisher using a finishing pad. works in really well the lime prime, and a little lasts ages. worked that into the bonnet in roughly 6 sections at a time. polished that off then used dodo juice supernatural, left to cure for around 15-20 mins then buffed off, today i gave the car another wash then did another coat of dodo supernatural to leave this have to say myself im well pleased with the depth of the paint using the dodo products, well worth the money in my eyes :D any comments as usual welcome

were is it earthed to? also have you got the cables running near each other as i believe if there to close it can cause probs

welcome to the club :D

welcome to the club as said, we need pics :D

possibly? working now so all good, prob still look into why it was doing it though

problem all fixed took the battery off and gave it a good charge (24 hrs) all sorted, so putting it down to not having enough electric in the battery which the car was kinda telling me about, if only i new that in the first place! anyway, all fixed cheers for your help guys

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VAL ALL THE BEST AND HAVE A GREAT DAY/ NIGHT :D

cheers gav looks like #4 on this pic il take a look tomoz, im guessing if i take that relay off the wipers wont work? just need a new one?

as above, for a e46 saloon getting a track day car with a friend and the bmw is going to be the perfect tow car :D

ever since my battery died and i recharged it my windscreen wipers intermitedly (sp?) stay on, ive messed about with the wiper stalk but they wont stop any ideas?

hope so mate, got other things lined up to, so hopefully theyl happen, cant say much on that though, never no who is watching type thing :D

found out today im finally going back to work, after nearly 9 months of being on the sick!! story is 22nd march i had a second seizure about five mins before i was due to go to work, i worked as a mobile bodyshop, set up a full tent that covered the car , had extraction unit etc, good set up tbh. anyways , had a seizure on the monday morning, i had already had one the month before and was waiting for a MRI scan to see if anything was up. 2nd seizure ment a trip to A and E anyways were i had a 2nd seizure!! hospital did the scan early and found a 5.5cm tumour in the right frontal lobe of my brain (surprised the family i had one :unsure: ). i was then admitted straight to the walton neuro centre in liverpool, were my surgoen looked into it more, it was agreed to operate straight away due to me having two seizures so close together in one day. the op went ahead (thats not a joke :P ) on the wednesday (24th march). after a few more scans, and getting some nice epilepsy drugs i was allowed to go home on the friday, should of ideally stayed the weekend but all i could think of (while drugged up!!) was getting back home again so i could set my sights on being allowed to work, i support my fiance (emma) thru uni and have a two year old daughter (phoebe). anyway, slight prob with being a mobile bodyshop and working on my own being that i lost my license for a year :angry: after work actually supporting me well thru all this and still paying me it started getting to the point were i was getting told i was going to be losing my job!! after getting a friend involved whose a trade union rep, im getting a job in a office for our sister company. only got offered part time but im still going to be getting my full wage, only down side is , im in liverpool and the job is in manchester and i cant drive for another 4 months :angry: :angry: so its going to be a pain travelling but end of the day, im back to work :D
