Anyone have an opinion of the Nulon additives?

Missus just forced me to buy one. I wanted to buy a low kay ZB Calais V but she wouldn't hear of it. She went and bought a new Mazda 3 SP25 same colour as yours but with black alloys. She liked the black alloys (so do I). I like the colour too.

Anyone with GIO? I've been with them for years but they are pricey.

Amen to that. Last year we had a terrible storm with big hail in Melbourne. One of my roof tiles split. I didn't know. In the early hours of the morning I heard something fall in the loungeroom with a sloshing sound. It was the plaster ceiling and it came down with all the insulfluff (I...

I have an ex Vicpol VF Evoke with the police suspension and brakes as well as (rare for an Evoke) blind spot monitoring and cross traffic alert. We don't do many kays in her...just getting to 57k now. We love it...comfy and enough go for us oldies. Just wish it wasn't black. Black looks...

Rotten b@stardos! Gut wrenching to lose a car that way. Brands like Mercs, BMWs and the upmarket European cars get put into containers with new keys and shipped straight to Lebanon where they are sold locally or onsold into Africa. The cars essentially disappear. It's not as if the cops...

I looked at a Stinger as well. I was really drawn to it but when she who must be obeyed heard the price that was the end of that. Same when I went to look at a 2023 Ford Escape "Vignale"... Her exact words, "It's a car for heaven's sake! We just want a reliable trolley with all the nice...

:D:D:D

Missus vetoed the purchase. She has gone and ordered a Mazda 3 SP25. I never win in this household! :confused:

Thanks Stooge. The two cars I am looking at are a 2018 4 cylinder RS with less than ten kay on the odo and a 2019 Calais V with under 20 kay. I love the Calais because it has the radar cruise control and the head-up display but the dealer wants north of 40 k for it and isn't interested in...

Hi all. I am thinking about taking the plunge in buying either a Calais V or Commodore RS. Both the cars I am looking at have very, very low kays. I already own a VF wagon but this new car will become our main buggy whilst the VF will become the shopping trolley...a role previously performed...

All plastics can be painted as long as the surface is prepared properly and the correct paint is used. That's how the bumpers are painted. I recommend you get the job looked at by a mobile bumper repairer (and painter) and get a quote. You could do it yourself but if you are a first timer you...

I'm thinking of buying a Calais V 2018 model. It has the HUD. Now I might reconsider reading this as the HUD was the main feature I liked.

Aliexpress is always emailing me with offers and, lo and behold, ANOTHER VF headunit, this time made by a mob called "Kunfine." https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004058608168.html

Thanks mate... I will go hunting for it.
