Nice one Gav.
Thought I'd give the hack some love, and its second wash in almost 11k miles

Nice work, Kyle. What snowfoam and wheel cleaner do you use?
I swapped the front and back wheels over on the Fiesta today, which should hopefully solve some traction (or lack of) issues.

Dragons Breath on the wheels and some PH Neutral stuff, both from ValetPro.
I gave my snow foam lance it's annual clean out last weekend, stripped it all down and soaked the filter in some iron-x for a while. It's done it the world of good, getting much better pressure and hence foam through it now, need to keep on top of it really.
Never use the dragons breath stuff (it's just an iron-x alternative) on the Lotus wheels normally as they don't get dirty enough, but the Seat ones were a right mess. Didn't even need to touch them after rinsing it off but now all the puddles are red

Had an annoying rattle from the cat/middle silencer, got the garage to open them up and most of the cat fell out haha.
Not had a chance to drive it yet but hoping it has cured the reduction in power and ability to rev that it's been having.
EDIT - It has cured the problem, car actually shifts now but has uncovered a slightly slippy clutch, god damn BMW's.
