Simon, where was your picture taken?

Here is a pic of my "Lotus" I took at the weekend

Would've made sense with the reg

Hi Folks, Following my shunt from behind last week, I thought I'd nip out to Kinghorn at Blackburn for a quote, under the impression that they were still the only place in Aberdeen that would do these sort of cars. Was told they no longer touch VXs or Elises, as they're a "pain." The chap said that ...

Tried some turtle wax original, tried to go quite gentle so as not to disturb the coating. Seemed to remove marks ok, but was dead hard to get an even looking finish

I've heard soapy water works well for cleaning them prior to waxing

Hi Guys.

What do you lot use to clean the alu areas of the interior?

I'm a bit apprehensive about using any products on it, but thought wax might be a good idea for removing marks and just adding a bit of protection?

Any ideas appreciated

I think it may have been a lady owner?

Can you not not "hide" certain topics so that only members can see the meets section, for instance?

Great alternative if you can bring yourself to drive a Vauxhall. Which exactly what is all about....I know it's really a Elise but...

I'm wimping out and putting standard RE040s onto the VX. Higher spec tyres would be wasted on me

Got price of £128 fully fitted for the OEM spec rubber from Zip Tyres in Peterheid, anyone know anywhere cheaper?!

Hardtop on, blue VX220 parked behind you on your return

I am no someone who cares for their vehicle so as to ensure its value is retained and they dont drive a shed, but I am planning giving the VX a good clean up very soon as I feel a bit guilty seeing it so dirty :oops: There are some light scratches that I was thinking about attacking with a cutting p...

Nice forum chaps :) I'm an Aberdeen VX-er ( :lol: ) who joined the Yahoo group to keep up with any Scottish meets (and trackdays once I have grown sufficient testicular fortitude) and servicing info etc. I personally prefer the forum style to the newsgroup style, it's a bit difficult to track thread...
