Re: Raising Car for Wheel Cleaning - Help

Thank you Senninha. Always a detailed, well-informed & well-meaning response & very much appreciated. Alas, will always disagree with your disapproval of red brake calipers 😁 This was exactly what I’m looking for. Only thing missing. What lifting/supporting equipment is best? Not wanting to ...

Raising Car for Wheel Cleaning - Help

Hello All, Before Spring I would like to remove wheels & give them a full clean along with calipers, arches etc. What process do you employ to do this? What equipment do you use? I have access to the information on jacking points under the car. Just wondered if you, for example, place two axle s...

Re: 20” Blade Carbon wheels

I've used FinishKare FK1000 on the rims of my cars for some years now, and I have been very pleased with its durability. https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/finishkare-1000p-hi-temp-sealant As with most things in the detailing world, the prep work is important. Giving the rims a thorough clean will pay ...

Re: Joining the F type ranks , any advice pls.

Hello Dave, Welcome to the forum. I own a base 2014 340 V6 Coupe which is also a weekend garage queen for drives to meets, coffee shops & anywhere for the sake of it! Personally, I’d go for a low mileage (lots out there) older model V6, then add upgrades/mods as the budget/desire allows. There’s...

Re: Potential F Type buyer - which one?

Seen a reaaaally nice Black F Type R on Jaguars approved used site, it’s right on the threshold for what I would feel comfortable paying for a car tho. Do they generally have any movement on price for used cars? Never bought a used car before so not sure what the rules of engagement are haha. Welco...

Car Garaged - Opening Issue

Evening All, My P&J is now garaged but I’ve developed an issue when wanting to wake the car up at the weekend. The car doesn’t seem to respond to me pressing the open button on key fob. Eventually it does & once out in the open it opens on demand. Anyone else experience this? Would proximait...
