Yeah, you'll notice I had the driveway done to keep the missus happy for the last set.... I'm not sure if I can justify/afford spending a grand on wheels and tyres for a trailer Very Happy

It's actually really good fun to drive now - more car like. I suppose people would be disappointed in that but it's my main car so I want it to be a confortable drive.

I've had the exhaust replaced and I'm looking to get the intercooler sorted in the new year which I reckon would make it smoother.

I've also dynamatted AND had a noise killer sound proof kit fitted. Pics to follow Smile

I honestly don't know, but it means I don't have to wax it any more Smile It looks like that every time I wash it!

Question What's a glass coat?



GLASSCOAT utilises technology designed for use by NASA within the Space Industry.

The main chemical in GLASSCOAT is a form of ceramic liquid glass that hardens into a coating which prevents oxidisation and maintains the new car look of the vehicle. The glass based coating gives surfaces water repellent properties and a smoother surface on paintwork, which allows any dirt to be easily removed.

The chemistry of GLASSCOAT reacts out to 6-9H pencil hardness, whereas waxes, reactive silicones and acrylic polymers achieve the hardness of rubber cement the hardness of Glasscoat ensures excellent integrity to the paint coating, protecting against wear and degradation from the elements.

Glasscoat ensures new cars retain their ‘just new’ look and revitalises the look of pre-owned vehicles. Dirt is easily washed off, ensuring that treated cars also stay looking cleaner for longer. Deterioration of your paintwork normally associated with acid rain, pollution, solvents and road salt should no longer be an issue. GLASSCOAT'S advanced technology formulation ensures that dirt and grime are easily removed from painted surfaces. For those who like Welsh Mountains and narrow boats have a look at my videos and photos at..

Thanks gilarion, I was going to Google later as I was busy with the horses. I do like the sound of that Thumbs Up Not worth driving all the way to the UK for that alone however. Whistle Now what else can I have done whilst I'm there? Very Happy

That's actually not a bad price considering what it takes to do a proper paint correction and glass coating. I'm assuming the interior got detailed as well. Let's see it!

Agreed, had to be done though. It was awful! Had to get the rest of the house and back garden finished first so I don't have to worry about skips wrecking it.
