Cracking day out!!
Funny you say that as i had a 991 GTS4 Loan car while mine was being serviced over the weekend.Slightly better in most ways but cost to change from mine circa £50k for 3 year newer car.
Might wait till they drop a tad!

I don't think Iron X will work as it's not iron fallout, I'm going to try a dedicated stainless steel cleaner or maybe some carb cleaner (in a bag, like your method) to see if that will shift it. Britemax's Metal Twins did a grand job the first time I used it but the tips hadn't had lots of baked on carbon deposits by then.
Traded my my Golf 6 2.0 TDI SE for a Golf 7 2.0 TDI GT a couple of years ago.
It's quick enough for me, got some nice toys and giving c.60 mpg overall, shall probably keep this one for a bit.
I needed something with 6 seats and a decent boot. . ..
so went for a honda frv
(just realised I have forgot how to attach pics lol)
Replacement for the Dino

Lovely MG!
A dark grey Jaguar XF
Slightly OT but thought this would be best place to put it....it's been doing the rounds on social media but for those who haven't seen it it's a place where jay Leno may be content...
Judging by the people posting here and their car love I think this could be our ideal home....somehow I suspect majority of wives may disagree though.... :encouragement:

A very nice house. Has potential to make it what ever want. But for me its fine as it is.
Could live with that
My house is just like that. A 1 room office centred around a 2 car garage.
Only the garage is full of crap and the garden contains a 5 bed winterised stone built shed.
I've been a track passenger in one of them, they are amazing. Hope the cops just wanted to tell you how cool your car looked!
This is currently off the road while I sort the accumulated odds and sods that inevitably occur after 180,000 miles.

Im so stuck in the last century. Think a Delta Integrale has to be on the shopping list...

Well it's technically illegal, but you'd think traffic cops would have much better things to do!
After 10 months in the bodyshop I've just got my GT4 back. The bodyshop presented me with a bucket full of rust & filler that had come off the car! Wheel arches, sills, front wing bottoms, door bottoms all cut out and replaced with new metal.

The car in front is an Alfa
(Although it wasn't for long.)

Added a four seater to the collection today & it makes me feel older than I am.
Having a collection of all 2 seaters doesn't make it helpful when you want to take the kids out!

Unfortunately it's one of those things that tend to really bug the Police, as a non conforming VRM plate can affect the ability of ANPR etc. Surprised you got a ticket though, often a Vehicle Defect Rectification Notice will suffice.
That's the problem with rats, anally retentive.
An unusually excellent weekend saw me driving these:

The DB9 was a pussycat, the R8 (V10) was rapid, the Gallardo was (ahem) VERY sporty but the GT-R was brutal!
I'm still shaking after the two passenger laps in the Ariel Atom!
By comparison my normal ride feels a bit pedestrian:

"Only" 279 BHP
Much more usable on our camera surveilled, pothole infested roads though.

And a beautiful, civilised automatic. They should qualify for tax relief.
Update for me:
Upgraded to a new BMW 335d (post facelift).
Terrific car it is. Sadly it's now back at BMW having an electrical fault fixed, so no current pictures.
Quite a substantial upgrade on my 62 plate 330d, electrical fault notwithstanding.
Not a patch on some of the lovely cars on here but loving the new car... Cooper S plus the Chili and a Media XL packs.

Abarth 500 great little car, for day to day. Going to get a new 595 Competizione when the latest model comes out early next year, with the new spec interior etc.
Today, for one day only, a 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air.
One happy Mr Curta.

Picked this up last night, my new weekend toy 3.0 SI Sport

Just been relieved of my company Prius and replaced it with this. Wouldn't have anything but a hybrid now.

I just could not find a classic 911 to suit my requirements, so on the rebound (via another Lotus, which I have now discounted) I ordered one of these babies for April 2016 delivery. Will be a long winter!

Nice Stuff!!
Just got back from Ingliston Revival, rain was a downer, but it cleared up.... kinda regret not choosing to get the 32 on track, but no doubt it would have been fairly sketchy putting the power down in the wet.
OH has convinced me that an F-Type Coupe is a goer, got a decent tour of one today, think I'll have to upgrade the 550-600bhp McDonalds Special.
