    Engine : Z19DTH

    Year : 2005

    Default Best DA package

    ive got a budget of about £120 and want to get a DA was looking at a standard das 6 as i can get a bit of a starter kit, what you guys recommend, a das6 pro on its own and build a kit up (and where would you recommend getting it from) or a das 6 starter kit with all the bits (if so which one and from where)

    also what cleaning/detailing bits would you buy from halfords if you had £50 as ive just got £50 halfords vouchers for my birthday

    I like the look of that machine and nearly bought one when I was on the hunt for a DA a while back. Alex at elite car care does the same machine at the same price and throws in an extra pad. He will also answer any questions you have about any products your interested in or have already purchased from him. Top notch service at elite.

    ive got the pro .and i just sold my da 6 to a friend at work for what i paid for the pro . though i did throw in some old pads /compound to get him started . James i found that you just need a couple off pads ( i use hex ones ) . i would get down and see Ginge as he is not far from you and have a play on his and see , built a kit that way . khalid

    From halfords: Megs wheel brush £8.99, Megs soft buff 2 pads (Yellow and black) £13.99 Each.

    Then I would get a DAS6 (standard) for around £90 and get a menz sample set of polish for £30. You will then have the only 2 pads you will need for your car and 3 polishes for varying defects.

    The kits are a little pricey and do not come with enough polish in my eye's for your price range.

    James if you decide that your going for some along the lines off what Ginge recommends. ive give you a couple off older /still off use pads free ,ive also got some menz i could let you have some /to try . as for halfords im sure you know some one with a trade card so you get even more for your money .
