I would like to get into detailing but mainly for my own car, however have no idea where to start. Is there such a thing as a starter kit to n00bs? Like most things these days, the market is flooded with products and advice. My routine now is 2 bucket wash with a wash and wax product, bug...

I preferred Old Blood and New Order to 2. The storyline is mental in 2 but it's still a decent blast. The scene with Hitler is hilarious.

I was thrown the keys to my last 2 test drives in the M135i, the 2nd test drive was the car I bought. Both garages were pretty relaxed about handing me the keys but then again they had my license and keys to my GTi so all was well. Found it easier to drive and listen for any bumps, creaks...

Seen this on the Maxton website, all gloss black and I like it. Think this is the route I'm going. Shadow edition grill on order, just need to find a local company to wrap the mirrors and canards.

Just seen this thread. Owned both a GTD then a GTI, thought about an R but made the jump to a BMW M135i. For all the reputation VW get, both mines had rattles that would send you round the bend. And if your looking for outright handling, a Focus ST would run rings around a GTi. Still very...

Its also an expensive fix when it goes wrong or is damaged. Talking from experience. Got to admit though the emergency brake feature works well on them at low speed.

I think I'll leave it then! Except the grill.

Gloss black then? The grill at the very least needs darkened out

M135i, had the car nearly a week now. 1 previous owner, 29k miles, auto, sunroof, sensors, power mirrors......and now my daily driver. Only planning to respray the exhaust tips and carbon wrap the silver canards, grill surround, rear defuser and mirrors. Wheels have also been given a full...

A nice subtle pop and crackle is fine, my M135i does it in sport and sport plus modes bit it's not overbearing. I suppose it's a bit antisocial but I do enjoy the noise.

Both manuals. Only issue I had with mines over the 3 years was the rear bulbs constantly blowing. Checked by Ford 3 times with no obvious fault found. Golf was easier to live with though, always thought the Focus was overly loud and never comfortable on a cruise compared to the Golf.

Very slow off the line, decent at 6th gear pulls at A-Road or motorway. Had a Golf GTD after the Focus and it felt much quicker in every gear in comparison.

I had an MK3 with Goodyear Eagle F1s fitted bit changed them to PS4s (front only) when I'd turned them to slicks. Night and day, PS4s are mighty. When the car lease was up the original tyres were still on the rear having covered 44k miles which I thought was impressive.

Thanks for your help.

Sounds a good way to do it, I'm guessing I can remove the PS4 as my primary through my online account without having to use that PS4? I'm guessing if I have any payment options for my account I should be able to wipe these off completely?

You cant say that. You'll start an N55 v B58 war.

Is there any way to have digital titles transferred into the HDD but for a new owner to play or do they follow the user account only? Getting rid on my Pro as I've played the exclusives and still prefer the Xbox One.

If it's a performance thing, both are mental quick for me anyway and I would have been hard pushed to tell the difference.

Well, it's only been 6 months with the Golf but I was annoyed every time I drove it as it wasn't the BMW. I've been looking constantly and got an amazing trade for the Golf in against an M135i (auto) this time. Was game for either 135/140i but 140s are demanding a premium since I last looked in...

It's the minimum I'm trying to work out :cool:
