UK Retailers Listing

Lowejackson, as this thread is getting a bit long now, is it possible for you to edit the opening message with all the latest info of what to get where? There are several new links spread over the 5 pages.



I'm not saying update all time with latest offers, just the basics of products 'XYZ' available from 'ABC'. It would save looking through the thread repeatedly and possibly missing something.
 
I was thinking the same thing. I will make time during the week. One unexpected advantage of all this is the making of a mini UK forum.
 
hmm, that would be a good idea to put forward...add a section in the forum for British....as in to help us discuss products found in the uk... know wot i mean?
 
While I don't think it's a bad idea for all the UK guys to have somewhere to chat, I do seem to remember the whole thing about having a UK forum was brought up earlier in the year at some point. The final outcome if I remember correctly was that we'd all have our own little area and not come and play with everyone else so it was decided that it would not happen. I think that this thread is of great help to all the UK peeps and top work to Steven for taking the time to put it all together but, I have to say, I think I agree with what David said earlier in the year and would prefer not to have a UK specific forum.

Is there a way that a sticky can be put up and only a mod can add new things to it? Or could someone like Steven have a thread that only he can update as more info is found? (like what (tnoy66 has suggested) It's for all our benefit in the end so I hope it doesn't seem like a negative thing what I'm saying.



Phew! That was a lot of thinking... I'm off to bed! :D
 
The long road ahead of us....If we're at something, otherwise just wasting time with this EC thing....



Like if on Autopia we had a Florida forum, an Alaska one, :(



Why not make it an Euro forum at least, or Euro suppliers.... Or even Euro Autopia??



We will never get nowhere :nixweiss

We do design for print, but i can put you in touch with printers if already have a design or artwork, if not we can sort it out for you.



Both the 306 in the avatar ( weekend car ) and 205 daily driver



I use a combo of products



Meguiars Bodyshop Range - swirl free, handpolish



Pro Range - #26, #7, #20, final inspection.



P21s/s100 gepc and wax



An the whole range of Autoglym - resin extra gloss, tyre dressing etc



Blitz wax



Dr Ok chemie wack Shampoo and carnuba wax



EF Clear Pearl QD ( show use on the 306)



Most products i buy in the uk, autoglym from Halfords, Meguirs direct from them. Blitz from frost, Wack from Iauto. The s100 from my local Harley dealer.



Previously i imported in the s100/p21s and EF from autodetail and properautocare.com. I future i will be using alex for the P21s, leaving the Eimmen Fabrick QD as the only thing i need to import.



As for towels i use microfiber tech MFs that Nick ( atr) kindly got for me.
 
woohoo u back on, i reckon u use the internet at work instead of home.



Well from previous experience, wot would the cost be to print a logo of that size in Red and Black
 
Sorry mate, yeah limited net access at home.



Will look into it for you dont really do £Â£Ã‚£Ã‚£ side of things.
 
Sorry guys - got to temporarily hijack this one to say.



WORLD RUGBY CHAMPIONS - YEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!



Tip to ALL sports fans worldwide - never, ever watch a game like that, whatever the sport, with a 4 year old in the room. Not only did I scare the **** out of my poor little girl but near enough bit through me lip to stop swearing.



Anyway, great match and sorta made up for the 48 hours' solid rain which stopped me getting anywhere near the car which is now filthy again.
 
Indeed, didnt make it easy for themselves.



Managed to do wheels and arches on the 306, and wash it on sat before it rained again. 205 is trashed tho :(
 
Too true Rich!



Looks like I've got a busy weekend coming up - mine needs sorting (hopefully picking up Megs cordless polisher this wk), my girlfriend's Ka needs some TLC (although I'm hanging fire til she gets the dent uin the rear 1/4 sorted) and her boss wants his Merc ML looked at - gulp! only ever done family's cars before now so this is a real challange for me.



We had heavy rain near enough non-stop all weekend so no chance of getting near the car anyway. I did give it a quick wash & QS Thursday afternoon so not so bad I guess!

Lowejackson, you can click the "edit" button in your first post and edit it to include all the other good sources/vendors that have been suggested in this thread. I think tnoy66's right that having most of the vendors "up front" would be helpful.
 
OK, I have updated the front page, if I have missed anything let me know.



It is probably a good idea to write a thread on getting a PC into the UK and how to make it work.
 
Thanks LoweJ, just a small point with the Mezerna link: I've tried e-mailing twice & faxing to enquire about pricing & availability, but to no avail. Looks like I'll have to ring them but they can't be that interested in business.

I should be able to supply more information shortly. I also tried phoning but could not speak to Andy (the boss?), anyway, I received an email from him on Friday so now I can start to ask the questions about pricing etc.
 
Cheers LoweJ re Mezerna (let me know)



If I get time I'l right a piece on the PC as I bought mine from Coastal about 6 months ago & have used it several times now
