If I see any Ultimate Speed screen-wash in LIDL, I'll post on this thread. Meanwhile..this test may be of interest to some.. https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/accessories-tyres/65265/best-car-screen-wash-to-buy

According to some on HUKD, the Prestone smells of fish!

I bought 4l of Prestone -10C for £2.50 from Tesco recently, but they also offer 2l bottles of "Extreme Performance", supposedly good for down to -23C for £3.50. https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/287525988

Toyota Celica Red Markeing material
Kev 16v replied to kalashnicov's question in General Celica Discussion
Amongst my collection of Celica literature, I have an eight page A4 size brochure on the Celica and MR2 "Red" editions from March 2004, and a 12 page version covering the Celica "Red" and "Blue", plus MR2 "Red" and "Chrome", from September 2004. -
Mmmm, maybe I should get an Umberella, ella, ella, ella.

Good Celica TSport Garage/Mechanic Staffs Area Please
Kev 16v replied to mikewb's question in General Celica Discussion
I can recommend someone, but you're looking at 50 miles each way, about 70 minutes drive away from you up the A38. -
It's not uncommon on the Gen 7 for the hinges to break. I've seen quite a few advertised with the flap no longer flush. Another thing worth doing before the short days and long nights, is cleaning all interior glass.

Why do you need to carry tools in a Toyota? Apart from things needed to change a wheel in the event of a puncture..torch, first aid kit, and waterproof jacket only.

1) Lubricate Fuel Flap Hinges 2) Top up reservoir with winter screen-wash 3) Grease Locks 4) Replace Wipers 5) Check Tyres for tread depth/nails & screws/pressure (which will drop as the temperature falls) 6) Lubricate Brake Slider Pins with silicon grease

So..who is up for a thread listing items that would benefit from some attention, before Frosty the Snowman makes an appearance?. Hopefully a lack of apathy is shown, and a few of you take the trouble to contribute JUST ONE item, making this a worthwhile thread I'll "kick off" with something that can easily be forgotten.. 1) Lubricate Fuel Flap Hinges

You'll still be able to buy E5 for a long time yet.

Thread resurrection record?

Painting Replacement Brake Calipers
Kev 16v replied to bazz54's question in General Celica Discussion
I think you mean "damned", Sly. There's no need to remove the calipers to paint them if using a small brush. Just make sure they're cleaned thoroughly first. -
Painting Replacement Brake Calipers

250ml of Hammerite Smooth at £5 a tin. Two coats, leaving a period of several weeks (to fully cure) between coats, applied using an artists brush. Being able to apply a thicker coat than using a spray type like Foliatec, leaves a smoother finish on the casting. Loads left over, allowing any "touch-ups" to be carried out as required. -
Came across this page on Toyota GB..apologies if it's a repost. http://blog.toyota.co.uk/the-toyota-celica-history
