Thats before buffing :)

Sweet, did a best offer and got one with a code for £35. Waiting on the keys arriving this morning and hopefully getting it done today. Also ordered some new floor mats to replace the horrible Halfrauds blue chequerplate pieces of s**t the car came with and a new gear gaitor with plastic...

Cheers, just keeping it as OEM as possible for quick resale when the time comes.

nm, found out here it looks like it's a straight swap http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?111579-Radio-CD-tape-player-detials-FAQ-etc.

Did a full detail (minus paint correction) to the wifes A3 this weekend past. Ended up being over two days as it got dark before I could finish on the Saturday. Biggest problem was cold fingers!!

I don't really need a banging sound system or much functionality as it's just a wee run around until I pass my test. But wanted to know if it was a straight swap out from the OEM tape player to an OEM CD player? I mean the keys are a few quid on ebay and there's a CD player with code on ebay...

Try Tardis, you can get it on eBay pretty cheap. Just spray on, leave to dwell for a little bit and then wash off with a hose.

Swirls are caused and accelerated by bad washing. You're going to get swirling over time but if you're doing it correctly compared to Johnny Polack at the local £5 wash and vac or a person using a grimey sponge then washing properly will reduce the effects greatly.

See if you can pick up a snowfoam lance and use that first rather than jetwashing. If you're just jetwashing you will 'push' the dirt around on your paint and make it worse. I would also recommend that you do wheels/arches/tires before you TBM on your paintwork. My usual stages Snowfoam Rinse...
