Hi to all, i,m finally back on the internet after having a lightening strike in the street at the end of June! I met several of you at Billing on the ,Bahnstormers stand. Nice to put faces to names. I had sent some messages to some of you prior to the lightening strike, so unfortunatly, that is why I had never replied to you. unbelievable how much you miss having the inyernet, and I,m not a very big user of it, do my bits for the ,Bahnstormers and use this site for its usful info and part with anything I,ve come across. Thanks to all for your patiance and understanding. Keith B

I did mine by removing the complete unit as it was so much easier that way with a bunch of bananas for fingers!

thanks to all for the welcome. gave mine a mop over to go to enfield pagent, looked quite nice. waiting still for an insurance payout for paintwork damage done by some ignorant painter who covered the car in white primer, pink primer and red gloss spots. they go well on a dark green pearlesent finish!! :-

Hi to all on OOF. I am a "bahnstormers member and have been for 11 years now. I have tried to register on here before but with no success. The site looks a lot differant to how I remember it, looks good. i will be at Billing this year on the ABS stand. I have a 2000 2.5 diesel elite estate on an Opel badge, had it 4 1/2 years now and still love it but do miss the fun of the GSI carlton I had before it

The grille does look very series 3 senator. Would it look even better with an Elite boot spoiler on it?

Ultimatly, I would like a white VXR 8.but a yellow or red Monaro 5.7 would do fine although the partner is not to keen on the yellow!

General Car Chat / Re: which polisher ?
« on: 18 June 2011, 11:55:08 »
It does depend if you use the right polish, but it has bought up all cars I have done with it nicely, just needed to finish off by hand with a good quality wax. I used rubbing compound with water then the farecla G10 after before washing off and waxing or resin polishing. Do test areas first so you get used to it as it can be easy to go through on an edge

I bought one from Toolstation. it looks similar to a 9" angle grinder but they only spin at about 3000 revs so they dont burn the paint off. Machine mart may do some thing similar
