I thought I would post some pics of my car, i've only had it for a couple of days and have just finished giving the car the full cleaning treatment!

Washed with Meguires gold class shampoo

Then all done with the meguires 3 stage treatment (Paint Renovator, Polish then Caranuba Wax)

Its come up really well, although a couple of scratches etc that I didnt notice before. Also after looking at the pictures I have noticed that I really need to get rid of the horrid wheel trims that have come on the car!!

Hi,

Your car is looking very smart; I agree the wheel trims let the car down massively. I would get the standard Peugeot ones put on it. I am sure you could get them off eBay for next to nothing.

or if you have loads of money get the standard Peugeot alloy's

What is the car HDi/petrol?

Thanks,

Andy

Shiney Shiney, looks good. You have got to bin them wheel covers their just nasty.

Nice veiw from your house too

Hi,

thanks for the responses, I have bid on some new trims on ebay and going to phone up breakers yards tomorrow. They look worse the more I look at them!!

Tell me to mind my own business if you like,BUT,those tyres(all) look to be massively over-inflated,almost solid looking....must be a hard ride,they just dont look right....it's like the car is weightless.

HI,

it is probably because he has used tyre shine, or maybe they are over inflated. You best check that matey

Andy

Nothing to do with tyre-shine;there is no perceivable tyre deflection on the road surface,even on the front,given the front loaded weight.....this would cause only a small amount of car to road contact,poor steering and rapid wear to the centre of the tyre,apart from an abominably hard ride.
If i've got it wrong....sorry,it looks like a model car sits on the table.

Very nice

That would look great with a set of the later 16'' alloys, and a Chrome strip under the grille, like this:



Hey, isn't that Maguires wax hard work eh? I nearly gave up when I did mine

The meguires is very hard work but the results make it worth while, The tyres are all brand new, I had them put on on Saturday, the day before I cleaned it. I have checked the pressures and they were a couple of PSI above recommended. I have let a little air out now and they are all to the recommended inflation now.
