Try Race-glaze, I bought some at Donnington last year. It's cheaper than Zymol but just as effective. Dead easy to use as well. www.raceglaze.co.uk

I've spent many great holidays in the Republic, Horse, esp Kerry but also Galway.
However, on the last trip (July - Aug 01) it was raining when we got to Dublin airport & was still raining when we left there 2 weeks later, having rained everyday in between....
But we've been in September & had hot beach weather!
& enjoyment of the craic is not weather - dependent.

Nah, mate, working tomorrow - hope you have a safe journey & a good day out
Does anyone have any views on the best body & leather care products? I've never tried zymol, but it seems to have many devotees on the various BMW websites that I've visited.

All gone very quiet again, like an awkward conversation on a first date! Anyone from down here off to Donnington tomorrow?

I've just changed my 540i Touring for an E46 M3.
I'm still a bit stunned.
Its certainly a pleasant change not to hear a V8 roaring faster than the car's moving, thanks to the steptronic torque converter.
But - can anyone explain the SMG gearbox....?

Ron, at last a bit of sense to stop this degeneration. I'd love to come to the Bristol meets but unfortunately I'm restricted by two things; I work shifts and chances are I'll be working at the time of the meet. The other is a trip to Bristol is a fair chunk of my 1500 mile a year limit for the insurance on my M5. Depending on the outcome of my attempts to change cars I'll hopefully get there one day.

When you get a hole in your sock, what happens to the material that used to be there?

bloody good idea johnny. i think the south west forum is the most quiet here. wessex region have a regular monthly meet, maybe we could join them for a day? or arrange our own (and more local) meet?
