^Sex discrimination, I'm phonin' ma lawyer lol

They were bumping my premium up 157 quid for 3 points :dapprove:

Yeah Kenny theyre fine as long as youre standard with no points. As soon as you tell them youve hung a magic tree on your mirror they start getting snippy!

Update- Elephant have just phoned to let me know insurance has been refused because my car has EXTREME modifications (FK coilovers!!!) What a feckin joke these people are.

Correctamundo !! I just got this email from Greenlight: We no longer quote Renault Clio 172 Cup models due to our bad claims experience over the past 2 years (Numerous Single vehicle and loss of control accidents) We can still quote all other renaultsport models as our cliam figures on...

Lookin sweet big guy, kfc machine is finger lickin' good. :approve:

Got it finished yet? Get the pics up asap :)

Nice one Vince, I'll give them a go :)

Got my renewal through, and it didnt include the extra three points I picked up last year. I phoned and told them at the time I got them and it didnt make any adjustment to my premium. Now, all of a sudden, it is costing me an extra 157 quid? :mad: I also declared my FK coilies and they have to...

I'll have one in a GB.

Very nice buddy :) Standard cups just seem to look so high for some reason?

Nice :approve: Looks like they did a spot on job. Did you manage to get the other painted bits tied in with the repair bill ? ;)

Mine flew through last month also :) 6% braking force to the rear lol

Bloody hell John, I'm just seeing this thread for the first time now :eek: I must be on cloud 9 half the time. Glad your ok bud. Hope everything goes well with the repair. The stupid bint will problably get about 9 points up her hole for the driving off bit lol

'Tis a loovely bus that. Nicest flamer I've seen. :) Nice ride height atm. How's it handling just now before the setting up?

cups dont have the rear bias compensating arm. Next time you MOT it print this off and show it to him. (last page) http://www.vosa.gov.uk/vosacorp/repository/MoT%20Issue%2031%20-%20Apr%202006.pdf Should clear everything up.

I think my wee Garmin i3 is great. Always gets me to where I want to go, never let me down. It's good for driving unknown roads fast too, coz you can see hairpins etc on the map before they arrive!

Was heading towards either Tesco or Costco and the back was FULL of toilet rolls lol.

I see one on Haggs road all the time also.

Excellent pics. I would love to be able to show up at car club meet wearing flip-flops instead of waterproofs :D

^^ I've just noticed it's my fat-assed bald-headed self at the left of that pic lol :o

What car is that pic taken from? That is the coolest gizmo i have seen for a while :approve:

It's defo a bad earth and problably pish cable to blame. Make the earth wire as short as possible to the amp. give the earthing point a good rub with sand paper till it's down to the bare metal and make sure it's screwed up well tight. And, as said above, make sure the RCA's and the power lines...

I've been too lazy to butcher my brackets yet, cut away a lot of arch liner though, but I dont think the metal bulges affect me tbh.

Nice Chris, you could maybe go a few mm lower, but any more than that will compromise the handling. The front bumper bracket scrapes like hell also.

The bridge in the clip is the Kingston bridge so they must be from Glasgow or thereabouts. Dont recall ever seeing them before though (you're hardly likely to forget a gold clio badass bouncing down the road) lol I bet cornering on those things is like riding a fat bird on a water bed.

If the tester is up to date, he/she should know about the brake bias actuator arm, and piss poor rear braking performance. But if you take the VOSA document with you it'll be fine. Mine sailed through it a couple of weeks ago and was only 28 quid.

Not Arctic but almost:

Well done mate. The old "I'm coming down there to wreck the joint" threat never fails lol ;)
