Seats look great Si.....but I'll admit to being a bit biased about the combo you've chosen

Always a pleasure!
Drive home was fun, I either need to shed more weight (the car that is!), or increase the power on my car, you were (gradually) pulling away from me

Yes they're good, maybe a bit too hard and slightly too sensible, but all the same a great all round tyre

Sorry, have been a bit slack on posting the progress on my car. Have fitted Genuine Cup 1s (thanks James!), KW V3s and almost finished the interior. Brake ducts and RS rear bumper section wait in the wings.

Spent yesterday at Autoglym's HQ and left with an extremely shinny 964!

Car looks great Si, the paint looks very wet, what did they apply to the paint to remove swirls etc?






Shame I missed out on the Eibachs, how is the KW kit?

Wow, the car looks fantastic and makes me think I need to get busy polishing! What did you decide on the wheels - keeping them black or going back to silver?

Yes has come up very well.
I think black for the time being, maybe silver next year.
Hope your car is going well

Makes list : Super resin....


I tend to have a mixture of Dodojuice Meguire's and Autoglym, perhaps i would get better results with the one brand?

Did they apply it by hand or via a polisher? As i wonder if i can get within 30% of that finish.

All applied by hand, I learnt a thing or two, very interesting day out. Everyone who works there loves it, all very keen and passionate about their product. Autoglym have been in the top 100 companies to work for, for the last 6 years, usually within the top ten.
