Your ZS looks sweet mate. Can't quite see properly but did you colour code the handles, strips and the backs of the wing mirrors?
I go to this body garage who have done loads of work on my previous cars so going to get him to do it.
Ye it just the facelift. Gearbox is nice and the car is quicker than expected. Really happy with it so far. Can't wait to get the strips and door handles colour coded and then going to get some really light tints.
you might be able to get more than you would selling it.
I had a 52plate 172 with 60k on the clock. If i went by the book it was 3.6k and i could see some were selling for 4kish tops. They offered me 3.6 i said i wanted 4.5 and we agreed 4.3.
make sure you say how much your mods were and...
Didnt know you are supposed to get a like for like car. when someone went ito my 172 her insurance inspected it and they got me a hired car which was a 1.4 corsa lol. now thats boring. but at the time i didnt care.
If you go through their insurance directly and it's not your fault you don't pay any excess. if you go through your insurance when its not your fault you pay excess and then later have to reclaim it back.
Gutted for you mate. Know the feeling
Some of you may have read I had my 172 written off whilst parked up from a woman going into it from behind. Got my payout from her insurance and had to look for a new car. Really wanted a 182 but as i am moving out thought it was a good time to downgrade to something which is a bit cheaper to...
The exhaust problem is common on 182's. just get an aftermarket one as its cheaper, look and sound better imo. As long as you look after it and keep the services up to date you shouldnt get too many issues. Just usual wear and tear. You'll likely get a cv boot split at some point which is common...
blackfire tyre gel is awsome stuff. I always found dressing the tyres one of my best parts of cleaning the car. Quick, easy and changes the look straight away.
I rang up about it on my insurance once as was going to map the car and they said it would cost an extra £70 quid. Don't think i would have added it on tbh.
Anyway i went to rs tuning to pay for it £350 and then pulled out as my timing belts were out and it would be pointless. 2 weeks later a...
cool i see. As the time i send the vin and that i'd have bought it and would be too late lol.
Also read you get free 7 day insurance cover if you ring up and get an annual quote which you dont have to get. Do you think there is a catch? As this would help my issue of trying to transfer the car...
sorry to bring this up again. But if i did it online do i get the results the same day? And that's it.
as i have read you then need to supply
VIN (chassis number
V5 Registration Document serial number

It's kind of on hold. I basically have till wednesday to find a new car and my policy will then run up till august. If i dont get one by then it automatically cancels and i have to start a new policy.
I just dont want to ring up today and put it on and say i dont buy it i have to let them know...
im 24. Yeah she did mention i could ring saturday and put it on even though i don't know if i will buy it. As i'm sticking with the insurance company I can just say i didnt get it if i don't i guess. They only open till 2pm saturday lol so can't do it late evening.
as in next Wednesday. They said all i need to do is state the cars details and it's done as i have already paid the full year.
Yeah might try find someone who can drive another car. But it's a right pain. How can they be shut on a weekend the idiots.
I have till wednesday to find a new car and transfer it onto my policy as my last one was written off.
Now i am viewing one on sunday. 3 hours away. However HIC insurance are shut all sunday. How am i meant to drive it back.
Any one had this problem
tbf they not all bad.
My brother bought a corsa for 2.5k on tpft and 1 year later someone set it on fire. He went through his insurance and they offered to pay 2.8k! so he made money.
I bought my 52plate 172 on 30kmiles for 5.5k 3 years ago. A month ago a woman went into it whilst it was...
Ye if she paid for it giving all correct details she will be covered! Most insurance companies wont rebate if you have around 2 months left. I would let the insurance run its course and just dont renew and look else where that way she keeps the ncb's going.
what car she got for it to be 2k? I...
