What is a sports lid and cap?
About £300 too much for something that looks like a Max Power accessory

These are also very good and are what I use. Also good propped up against the wall to protect car doors in the garage
-
Ebay price? With the issues stated I think 300 to 500 is realistic

Yea I'd just use a couple of pieces of wood. Free and easy. Unless you could apply for a dropped kerb?

That Meguirs stuff is really good. I use it to remove dried watermarks and shine up if the car gets caught in the rain or is dusty but not dirty enough to wash. Smells good too lol

I never use WD40 for anything anymore. Simply because the cans always seem to run out of propellant before the other contents have run out. GT85 seems alright, is cheap and has always worked ok for me. I haven't got time for data sheets and analysing the contents lol
for tough stuff it gets used with a hammer and a blowtorch too

Hi Dan
I'll be after a classic/limited mileage policy on the celica in January. Do you have a direct tel number? Can PM me if you like. Ta

I work near Morley. I'm a relative newbie to west Yorkshire. Moved up here from Sheffield but grew up in Derbyshire. Got a suprise when I told insurance my new BD postcode! (were not actually in Bradford but just on the border and fall under the BD postcode) what a hole Bradford is. Lol

Heated washer jets and screen on my daily which helps
-
States -5. Good enough for me for general winter and spring use at that price

5 litres for £1.99 in Home Bargains. Can't go wrong

I've just got a mondeo for a daily driver. That's a 2005 but only got 65,000 miles on it. Rear passenger wheel bearing had gone on that. It's got steel wheels on at moment and when I took the wheel trim off that wheel it's got a really big dent in the rim. Part of me thinks that can't be a coincidence and probably didn't help!

I used to have a couple of 2 stroke sports bikes. Love the smell!

The keys is good prep; getting the final primer flatted properly and finding a good paint shop to make up a good match paint using quality cans. U-POL is the clear lacquer I used, good stuff
-
I repainted my rear spoiler, the top half of both front wings and the corner of the bonnet due to lacquer peel. Cost me about £30 per section in materials, if that. Got a good finish from cans.
The process is in my build thread with pictures too.

You beat me to it! I was going to suggest that. Mine has a Toad AI606 fitted and kept going off when I first got it. I disabled the ultrasonics using the same method and it's been fine since.

Depending where it is exactly and how bad you can respray part panels with spraycans and get a good match if you do it properly and use good quality spraycans filled at a good paint supplier

Pic number 4 the large pipe just goes onto the bottom of the intake rubber if I'm thinking right
-
I wouldn't worry about rusty brake pipes being an indicator, mine went but the underneath of the car is solid
-
Yeah I tried sanding and polishing the patches but it didn't look much better. Ended up just respraying bits

Leeds is about 90 miles from me. But if they are good at what they do, I could always consider using a courier...
They're very good. They re cut my diamond cut ones that were old, chipped and furred up. One of the few that actually do the cutting rather than farm it out to someone else. I had a look round and they had some lovely painted and coated stuff in they'd done. I'd recommend

With cross bracing (noggins) that would be fine.
I still wouldn't trust that. No way

Axle stands I just bought the Halfords ones when they were on offer. Plenty good enough.
Position under the subframe at the rear and main chassis rails at the front. That's what I do on the gen6 anyway. I wouldn't trust the jacking points on the sills.
what have you done to your celica today...

What is it with all the sand or dirt in the rain lately? Noticed it more as cars aren't being used as often
