I didnt start using Autoglym at first on my car. But one time Halfords had the 3 for 2 on it I bought some and I've used it since and I'm not going back to anything else. Gives really good results with not that much work tbh.
Agree so easy to use cant get on with much else, seems autoglym is best for the way i clean and polish my car
got some parts fitted today
Managed to fit some of the parts ive had mounting up, with a break from the rain today i managed to fit my rear spacers and the powder coated valve cover, also got pics of my seat sport strut brace and jetex filter,

I had conical wheel bolts with my Cupra wheels. I am sure they took conical ones... Maybe I'm wrong though, but I would check your wheels to see if you had the wrong kind to begin with.
BTW nice looking car! Look forward to seeing what you do with it. Did you buy the strut brace new from SEAT? If you don't mind me asking how much did it set you back? Looking for one.
I had this problem with the bolts on my previous car. They had to be conical but the guy who mounted the new rims didn't use conical. That caused play on the wheel and hub, and in the end when I heard it and tried taking out the bolts, 2 bolts snapped off in the hub. had to buy a new one...
so yes sort that before driving

Then why do you say that he might have had the wrong ones to start off with??
The bolts on the car originally might have been the wrong kind... Therefore the new bolts might be right.

good show... I was hoping that was going to be your action! too many kids on here these days who'd "just try it"
Talk to Bill @ Badger5 - I think he does bolts for about £12
