  1. Try West End Motors down Ward Place. Close to Siedles.
  2. Not all clay bars can or should be used with water as it will damage the paint. However 'Bilt Hamber' claims their clay bars can be used with water. I still use soapy water just to be safe. It really does make a difference when you clay the surface prior to a polish n wax.
  3. I use Xerapol plastic polish. Got it off ebay. Pretty decent stuff
  4. Hey guys! Anyone know why super markets aren't selling local beer? Cheers.
  5. Worth noting if this happned to the Maruti Swift. What crash rating the Alto 800 will be getting. http://www.worldcarfans.com/114110583846/datsun-go-and-maruti-suzuki-swift-get-shameful-zero-star

    Dear DCL, All these questions need to be discussed and possibly answered over some 'DCSL' Regards.
  8. The Grey area of customs duty is the only thing that's holdng me back. If I were to get Autoglym or a similar product from here it won't be that much cheaper. According to some professional detailing sites and forums this brand comes highly recommended. Rated higher than Klasse products let alone Meguiars.
  9. Hi guys! I'm planning on getting 4 items of Zaino car care (Zaino AIO, Z2 Pro, Z5 Pro, and the Z8 final detailing spray) products from the U.K. The total cost with air freight comes to 91.62 pounds exactly and the shipping weight should be under 2 kg. The questions I have are 'will it be an issue for me to clear these items once they arrive over here?' & 'Will I be landed with an exorbitant amount in duty in the clearing process?'. Any thoughts and expertise from members who are experianced in getting stuff down through ebay, Amazon etc.. will be much appreciated. On a different note. This is the first time I'm trying these products out. Any of our members already used or is currently using this stuff? Any feedback on this too will be great. Thanks guys.
  10. I know of a 2010 Sorento with over 150,000 k.m on the clock. It's used as a company car for plantation visits by a tea brokering firm. They claim the vehicle is still in great shape and nothing has been done to it. Given the fact that company cars are driven by many and tend to be abused and in this case run on pretty bad roads is a good testament for it's reliability.
  11. According to a guy at Prestige it's brought down as a stock car. They're quoting a cool 160 mil.
  12. Almost all powerful SUVs have speed limiters on for safety reasons. If you have managed to find a way past the problem once again I ask you. Please show us some proof.
  13. You think only you have been on a Discovery 4? Anyway keeping that aside, we all hear would love to see some video evidence or a snapshot of a so called 200+ moment.
  14. Wonder how you managed that when it's top speed is limited to 112 MPH (180 KMPH)
  15. No it has the revised duties. Only 2600cc and over has gone up from 80% to 100% i.e 20% all the others have gone up by 10%.
  16. LOL! http://www.lbo.lk/fullstory.php?nid=1264901633

    Avon Tyres

    MasterCraft is a decent tire machang. IMO better than Maxxis in terms of ride comfort and also wear. Was running Maxxis Bravo Radials on my Hilux and changed to MasterCraft Avenger GT and now on to my 2nd set. Vast difference between the two. Well to me at least. It's owned by Cooper tires and are very similar in sizes and tread pattern. They also happen own Avon tires in the U.K.

    That and the fact that the agents have reduced the local charges from 1.5 mil + VAT back to 1.25 mil + VAT. People who buy cars for around 10 Mil are mostly car dealers themselves. They then palm it off for around 10.5 mil. Not a bad trade considering their money wasn't tied up for 4 months. On a separate note watch out for soaring permit prices in the very near future as Unit#d Mot#rs are offering The Montero 3.2L DI-D version on the 25K + 5K USD permit. starting Monday. Lucky permit holders!!!
  20. Fancier JDM version of the 166 came as the 167. It came with the 3.0 L (5L) engine and a better interior and way more equipment. If your budget permits it's the way to go.
  21. You mean that GL450 which was used by the D*MO Chairman? If so what a bargain.
  22. Hi! Does anybody know how to make Opera Mini the default browser on a Nokia N8 running on Symbian Belle? Is it even possible? Cheers guys
  23. It's a very good car. But it is a little unsettled and uncomfortable on rutted roads IMO. I guess you have to pay the price somewhere for being able to go round corners much better than most SUVs over here.
