Refute it again then? Get the garage to write another letter. But I bet it's the outcome of hitting a pothole. It happened on my 197 and I thought WTF it's failed... Then I thought back and I'd hit an unavoidable pot hole (on coming cars) and it appeared after that.

Yep. I don't intend on doing it myself. LOL.

Don't be sorry, like I said it needs a good PC. I don't think it's had a polish in it's life. Really dull in places.

I've seen it done without a jack before. It was fine.

Oi, this isn't a ***** your own car thread. I'm whoring mine. :cool:

Roffle at the weird looking camber in these photos. Looks nice.

LOL. I bought that one. Actually, it was still fine. But I drove as far away from anyone else as I could to avoid any salt being kicked up. Hoping it doesn't rain so it can at least stay clean for a while. :)

I read them twice! Cleaned surface, rub with card, etc. Peeled the backing off and letters wouldn't budge. :dapprove: I managed the 197 one fine so isn't teh technique. Fankies, Seb.

There's a switch on the lower section of the dash to the right of the steering wheel. That turns both the speed limiter and cruise control on (orange limiter, green is cruise control). Once it's on set your speed by pressing + or - buttons. To cancel it press O or push the brake. To resume press...

That's what I used to do with the 197. Mind something going in and ripping out the side wall doesn't sound like he could've driven much of a distance on it.

About the sidelights. Sirry. :o

LOL. Hi. TBH, I don't give a s**t.

Pot hole probably. Same thing happened to my old car. Just bad luck, TBH. I'm assuming the garage you bought it from also said there had been no curb issue? i.e no marks on the alloy, etc. Did you take pictures?

I like the way the exhaust sits. They had a silver one in where the tips stuck out quite far. Random.

I might change them if my hands will get through to them. We'll see. I can't be bothered to faff on with things. LOL.

I know. Lucky innit! I kinda want to keep it standard. I'm just concerned with keeping it in good condition. Paint correction and an alloy refurb will be coming up, as (as you'd expect) they're the originals and towards the back of the alloys there's a little bit of corrosion in places. That'll...

Yeah, when you drove it off the forecourt. Thanks peeps. It's satisfying having it clean. But it's bloody cold out so the cleaning is a rare occurance.

Well I've finally been arsed to actually clean the car. The Black Grey was starting to get to me, so with an afternoon off I decided to do something useful and wash the shed mk2. Looks lubberly when it's clean, but I think the previous owner has used a bloody Brillo pad to wash it at times...

Seb's is £918 list price. The 13" with the spec above is 1200 or so, IIRC.

Either try those links above, Seb. Or just reload your CDs onto the MBP.

^ True. I'm sure he mentions a reciept though doesn't he?

Didn't keep up with this... Is the old lappy completely fucked? You can't transfer off your iPhone songs, etc.

He's been offered money for it, the doyle won't get rid of it. I'll take his treadlines TBH.

Finicky, what can I say. I still don't have it yet mind. They're getting a visit tomorrow, LOL. :D This guy sounds more unlucky with cars than me, but he's not helping himself.

I don't think so from what Sir Dave said in an earlier post. ;)

This. Probably. However, he'd probably still sell it to some PLC who'll then get stuck with it. I'd rather he was an active member on here so that when he does manage to babbage it he can be publically flogged. Yep. Take it back. It'd be the first thing I'd do. And I'd abandon the...

Roffle at that video. Hi hobbit hands. -x-

Good luck. Indeed, needs must. Know how it feels to sell a car for a purpose. :( Hope it sells quickly for you. :)
