Can anyone recomend a polishing/buffing machine thats up to the task and is reasonably priced??

Yes,those are the ones and thank goodness for this forum!! My lack of knowledge certainly shone thru on this particular issue :-( I've not followed the link yet for the group buy but whats the deal re price/postage etc? CHEERS FOR SAVING ME BY THE WAY LOL!!

Has anyone else seen the replacement steel arches on offer on ebay? Anyone had any experience of them? The guy wants £60 a pair- is this a fair price??

Hi Stu, I've found this set up on ebay Ford Fiesta ST 150 MK6 calipers,discs and pads with hel lines (would have posted the link but I'm tech crap and don't know how) apparently the discs have been skimmed and not used since. Any good?

I have a T reg 1999 puma and would like to do this mod as frankly, the standard brakes are crap! Are there any stipulations when sourcing calipers/discs off the ST to make sure it fit's mine and is this mondeo servo upgrade thing a good idea? Bear in mind i know nothing bout cars- I've always...

Hi Dal, the ones i was checking out were black with red stripe around the outside but same style. British made eh? sounds more promising but my guvnor on the buildings purchased some 'british made' wheel barrows recently and they were fu*ked after one weeks use so bit hit or miss

The company is called wheel base and the alloys are motion 2. I've looked all over their ebay add and there doesn't appear to be a web address apart from: wheelbase_alloys_direct Let me know you're views....

Cheers for the response- bit of a misunderstanding though! These wheels are brand new, advertised on ebay.

Can anyone advise if this brand is any good? I come from a biking background so my car knowledge is basic/non existant. There's a set i have my eye on on ebay under 300 quid and they look just the ticket but I'm asking the question- is this too cheap? When you see brands such as OZ where u won't...

Is there a specific year 206 wing that needs to be used??

I hear a lot of talk about soundproofing!! Is it really worth it?? I'm getting JBL replacement door speakers fitted along with my 12" kenwood sub/amp (no bootspace :grin: ) etc and I'm thinking if i go to all this trouble i may as well perfect it! Any advice or tips folks??

Funny you mention brakes- they're shite! The brakes on my housemates Puma are shite too!! Are there any cost effective fixes people??

Just picked it up tonight and drove the 60 odd miles home- what a car, love everything about it,bear in mind it's the fastest car I've ever driven!! Gonna have to watch my driving/speed! I could get into a world of trouble lol......

Had a nightmarish couple of days trying to sort insurance- I've earned my stripes as it were. 15 years plus unblemished motoring behind me both cars and bikes. I've been getting quotes up in the £1000's!! I was on the verge of getting my dad to insure it and put me on as a named driver, ffs it's...

Gutted!!! bloody insurance companys won't let me use the ncd from my van or bike and I've just been quoted a grand!! F**king ridiculous, Im nearly 40 with a clean slate!!!

Thanks for the insurance feedback- looks like that £290 quote was ok then. Doesnt make any sense- my Gsxr 1000 sportsbike will do a ton in first with a top speed of around 170mph yet only costs £250 a year to insure. Go figure??

Nice one. Cambelt done at 52k and the lady owner informed me that the mot inspector was surprised at how solid it was underneath compared to the usual puma rot so all good news. Guys, Insurance company recommendations please??

Evening all- Just put a deposit on a T reg 1.7 today, i think it's a thunder, not sure. It's mint inside and out with 82k and fsh-£500 is this a good price people? I'm a performance bike rider normally but i borrowed my housemates Puma and was hooked. Such a good crack to drive. Are there any...
