I tend to use Aurelia Bold gloves, they seem to last quite well and don't tear very often. The obvious downside is that they are nitrile so they can make your hands a bit sweaty.

BRB, having a special man moment ;)

Looks great, these still look good now unlike some of Mercedes other efforts. And don't even get me started on the direction BMW have gone in!

I've got the SpotClean Pro, very pleased with it to be honest.

I've have yet to find a BH product that is not excellent tbh. The Autowheels I think is the best bleeding wheel cleaner in the business (that's bound to trigger someone lol)

It all depends on your user requirements. 1. Do you want big thick foams to tout on instagram? 2. Do you actually want something that loosens and softens dirt before your 2BM wash? If you are after 2 then the best I have found so far is Bilt Hamber Autofoam. The best thing is its just as...

The vehicle was 6 years old at the time with around 58k - I bought it at 5 years old with a 1 year approved used warranty so this was to continue this coverage. I thought they were having a bit of a giggle so I elected not to take the warranty.

Check out South Main Auto on YouTube - he has some very good diagnostic vids, including dealing with NO COMM situations which is what yours sounds like due to the scanner not being able to read the modules. Its probably a stupid bloody sensor that has gone dead short and pulled the whole CAN...

I have found AF Tripple AIO to work quite well on the wife's white shopping trolley. Even goes on nice with a DA :)

They wanted £1200 a year for the top tier warranty on my C-Class shitbox. The only thing that has gone wrong with it has been the usual injector seals which are excluded from the top tier warranty anyway lol. I've just put the money in a savings account (well a little bit less).

I am actually gobsmacked they want nearly 3k a year for the top tier warranty. That tells me they have zero confidence in their product.

Pretty sure there was a thread on pistonheads a while ago about a guy with an M5 and a warranty direct warranty. Believe it went to the ombudsman when he tried to claim as they didn't want to pay out in any way, shape or form.

I used to enjoy browsing the used car section for shiny things I cannot ever afford. The update has made the used car search absolutely awful. Very badly laid out, minimal info and seems to be only one picture of each vehicle. Very poor IMHO.
