Cheap / effective
« on: 06 May 2007, 16:58 »
Hi all Im new  :smiley:

I bought my mk3 a month or so ago its awesome :grin:

Apart from some 15" BBS alloys which my dad gave me, it's a bog standard R reg, red golf . Does anyone have any cost-effective suggestions that I can do to make my car that little bit more special :smiley:

Also, I wash/dry/wax-on/wax-off my car about twice a month, is it worth to polish afterwards?

Thankyou all :smiley:

I think it's well worth using that Shell top  grade petrol can't remember the name as just been drinking the same strengh stuff and a shot of Redex every once in a while

i haven't heard good things about redex. apparently it just smokes up your car and shouldnt be used if you get your car serviced reguarly (which i do) :undecided:
