Re: Member / Stake-holder?

Interesting point - I would have assumed BBO has a membership fee? Then I would feel I would have a case for complaint in that what I paid for had changed (refund) . As Paul points out we have not paid here so our only resort is to vote with our feet . And in fact that is how businesses live or die ...

Re: Best Polish For Metallic Black Paint

R222 is considered a high shine (show) polish for all colours but is very short lived, if you enjoy waxing your car you will like it. :D However, CC is absolutely right cleaning and polishing is what will make it pop. My advice as a Jet Black owner is not to drive it after you clean it (err no probl...

Re: Condensation in headlights

Modern led lights generate very little heat unlike older filament type lights which are basically heaters and good at drying out whatever they are in. The lights on my new Cayenne are all led and I see most of them misting up to some degree. I would hope that come the warmer weather it should be le...

Re: Condensation in headlights

I'll look forward to their reply - I was with your thinking when it first occurred, but a walk around the OPC compound and it is a common thing to see in all models. I concluded if it were a problem they would have fixed it. As it occurs on the aerodynamic/cosmetics cover and the Xeon/LED units are ...

Re: The 2017 Red Tractor

I went for an old favorite at the back of my detailing cupboard - FK1000P. Once Machine polished it will have a Gyeon Cancoat put onto it. This lasts almost a year so the car will get a polish once a year and a new coat of ceramic. It's easy to do at home and give an amazing shine, much more than t...

Re: 992 C2S Cabriolet

☹️☹️ Continuing the first world problems theme, I’ve just been told my car in indeed in Sheerness, where it will stay for another 3 weeks. No transport movements to dealerships from last night. That is disappointing news :( ... You will be fully conversant with the operation from the on-line manual...

Re: Refused Extended Warranty, non Porsche part !!

I guess you've found out the hard way that non-standard parts mean that in Porsche's book. That's why I had the mini dealer fit the non-OEM tow bar before buying the car, for the same reason as you, even an OEM mini retro fit is a crazy price. Guess they don't know how well it's fitted or what softw...
