May 21, 201411 yr I had a Blue and Gold one before but just had Subaru in the middle on it's own with the two logos, I still have the 2 star logos and the S.O.C Logo it's the website address that I F@cked up.
May 21, 201411 yr Author Tested speakers and thank god I don't have to pull the head unit again, so one duff one only 8 months old so emailed manufacturer explaining how I don't have box or receipt and I'm disappointed in quality. They were only 40quid but hey. So email comes back saying take to nearest stockist (halfrauds) with a print out of correspondence amd they'll change them no questions :-D Thats what I call customer servive
May 21, 201411 yr I filled her up with a tank of 99 from Tesco. She how she gets on with that. Orange light had just come on and only managed to get 48 litres in it. Can't believe the orange lights either 2 or 12 litres. No idea how big the tank is :p Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 21, 201411 yr checked the voltage of my battery and again it's on 12.23 volts so it might be time to buy a new one...
May 21, 201411 yr No idea how big the tank is :P Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk probably 60 litres?
May 21, 201411 yr Not bad work that Gambit, looks nice as well. TJE, yeah it's a 60ltr tank. How many miles had you done? :)
May 21, 201411 yr I know you're looking at Autoglym, but a lot on here inc myself use Maguire's. The synthetic wax is really good as is the tyre gel, the drying cloth is well worth it. The wax (about £26 a bottle) is good because you can wax it, and when you wash the next time just buff it with a Terry towel and it shines up again like its just been waxed. Can't do that generally with the Autoglym. Worth a look anyway Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Meguairs all the way for me, except I use the autoglym super resin polish as it has the fillers in to help mask swirls and light scratches [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 21, 201411 yr You should try the ultimate wax from Maguire's my wife's car is nearly black and you get no swirls, it's really good stuff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 21, 201411 yr It's worth looking into other products beside halfrauds stuff, Poorboys, dodo juice and Bilt Hamber all come to mind they are all professional brands used by detailers and are often cheaper and a much better product. As my Halfrauds stuff runs out it will be replaced with Poorboys and Bilt Hamber products from around the net.
May 21, 201411 yr Been out for a great drive to the beach, had a walk and then drove home. Good couple of hours out enjoying the Sunshine as it's meant to rain for the next few days :(

As my Halfrauds stuff runs out it will be replaced with Poorboys and Bilt Hamber products from around the net. might have to have a look at these, always used Maguiars and got really great results so always concerned I'll try something new and it'll disappoint and i'll have thrown money down the drain.
May 21, 201411 yr I've tried the Bilt Hammer wax after reading a load of great stuff about it, but to be honest I don't think it's anywhere near as good as the Meguiars stuff I've got. Doesn't last as long, doesn't leave as nice a shine and is much more difficult to apply and buff off. Always found Auto Glym super resin polish to be brilliant too so not bothered using any others.
May 21, 201411 yr Author Do you have a wilkos near you ? They had poorboys stuff in one of he larger stores near me. Don't know if they were trying to get the brand in and keep regular stock though

May 21, 201411 yr I use a mix of autoglym and auto finesse.I do use poorboys bird **** remover though, which is pretty good.
May 22, 201411 yr Just off to take mine up the North West along a very wet and rainy M6. Can see the getting very dirty today. Might need a clean at weekend Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

May 22, 201411 yr Got a filthy car having been on a site in the mud and rain, got a cleaning job and a half this weekend. Still, popped into Halfords and bought a stock of Maguire's goodies to help with the clean. Wife's taking my car to work tomorrow while hers is in the shop. She's taking my baby [emoji33] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 23, 201411 yr Today I've mostly tortured myself on auto trader [emoji35] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk And today I've continued in this vein, including ringing a garage that has a Forester 2.5XT for sale, then ringing the Subaru dealer that has serviced it all its life for the lowdown.... .....think this could get messy! :o
