    Or I might have mixed them up. There is a difference though.

    Did they sell bora estates here or in the uk?
    I know you could get a golf but always thought the likes of the above were golfs with a bora front end so a bolf!

    I was only looking at those two the other night, on TOC was it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,224 ✭✭✭barone


    yup,on toc


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,925 ✭✭✭GvidoR


    all of the above

    It looks like a Golf estate, so it must be a Bolf.

    Golf with Bora front = Bolf
    Bora with Golf front = Gora

    I am thinking to do my Bora as a Gora...

    Only makes sense, lads. The front end takes the first letter.

    Nothing like a bit of Bog. :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,925 ✭✭✭GvidoR


    Great job, although it should have been more like €15 - €20

    It was €8 for 500g of P38, €14 for a 500ml rattle can of my colour code, €6 for lacquer... thought that wasn't too bad and i'm a tight **** :pac:

    Things must be tight when two of you are discussing whether the job should have cost €15 or €30:)

    Either way it looks a hell of a lot better than before.

    The ST is polished and read for Donedeal - said I would fire up a few pics of it.
    Got a good wash and polish. :)

    Hope they are at the right angle and that, am no expert with a camera :D

    They sure are. You have to eat noodles for a few days after an expense like this.

    Not 3 bad, yopster. I see you've got red calipers for extra 25 KiloWatts.

    BTW, the bonnet isn't closed properly :D

    I'm no expert either but I think the photos are excellent although maybe the last two are a little too far away for a donedeal ad.

    Car looks great btw

    Picked this up today, S60 D5, fully loaded. I'll take some proper pics, and go mad with the Back To Black, over the weekend, this was taken in midday sun at the M4 services.

    FFS - for your plastic trim, you're wasting money with back to black or any of those silicone sprays. Get Gtechniq permanent trim restorer from www.cleancar.ie and you'll have those trim pieces black for years to come without having to do it again every week ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,034 ✭✭✭goz83


    Back from the paint shop today. Used to be baby blue with white roof.

    I'm all in favour of things that require minimal work. :D

    +1 on the gtechniq stuff!

    here's a before and after on mine from last year. Two applications on the strip above and none on the little circle piece.

    Will definately get some of that. Do any retail outlets stock it, or is it online only?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,238 ✭✭✭Ardennes1944


    cleancar.ie its expensive and when you see the bottle (15ml) you'll freak out, til you use it :D
    One bottle has done all my old cars trim, my current, and 2 other cars and theres still some left, no need to re-do.
    Only thing is....the plastic will be so dark you'll have to get a DA then to make the paint as black ;)

    I bought it from cleancar.ie. T'was delivered quite quickly. I don't think any shops carry it.

    Be careful not to spill it!!! I spilled the last half of mine. It's so small and quite easy to knock over.
