I am driving around with them on now if anyone wants to see them.

Steve - I am up for some road legal tyres. Are these performance gen purpose or just for the track? I am away for the weekend, and you know I am up for some new rubber soon that is versatile and roadworthy

Will give you a call early next week. (if they are already sold then I understand)

finally got the car fixed after the ladder incident.

one question though, why the FFFF can't smash repairers polish a car without swirling the XXXX out of the paint? you'd think they'd know how to do it properly....

take it back and get them to do it again, and not by the 15yr old apprentice

can't be F'd to be honest, and don't really have the time or inclination either. Will just spend a saturday doing it myself when I get chance.

Hi Micky D,

Have you tried using this awesome product called Zymol. Its pretty awesome on rejuvenating dull paint and also masking/ridding of nasty swirl marks on your MCS. Have a shop in Aus for Zymol Destiny wax. Its a tad pricey but well worth the keeps if you want immaculate color saturation and shine.

LOL... i know your post was in Aug but i figured i'd log onto MINI2 after months of inactivity. Hope your MCS is ok now.
