Dealers always charge loads because of their excessive overheads etc.
You've got a couple of choices not tooooo far from you. There's JMS who I think aren't too far from London or there's Rentech in Portsmouth. Both are well regarded on here.
Belts done is good thing when buying but if it's...
Could be a bearing for the steering. Get the tracking done and take it from there.
Get another gearbox. If you've bought the one I'm thinking of, it came with a spare box?
Locking could just be a fuse. Tried a new battery in the remote?
Sounds like the handbrake cable is screwed. Does...
Oh I still cared about it. I saved every penny to buy that car, insure it (which was double the cost of the car), tax it, maintain it and buy stupidly big wheels :o
Love your projects dude. You certainly do have some knowledge.
I think it's brilliant how you just do things and talk about it like it's the easiest thing in the world. Swapping looms, engines, gearboxes.. No matter what it is, you just seem to do it with the ease.
But that's due to experience. That's how I drive now but it's certainly not how I drove my first car.
I had a Mk1 1.2 and I raced about like a dick constantly. But it was slow. Took forever to build up any speed so I was never going to be in much danger. We were all young once. All had our...
That would just make what Dan's done into hearts.
You got your Christmas tree up? Get your camera and point. Focus on the lights. Then turn manual focus off and twist it. Watch the difference.
It'll work better if you're a bit further away/have fast glass.
There might be an app within Cydia to do it. There's been people getting iPhone/iPad on to Apple Tv, so I'm sure it can be done to get iPhone to iPad.
Seems massively pointless though.
It's probably a write off, if you want to go down that avenue.
Book price I'd say is £3k? Something like that. Bumper, bonnet, light, grille, maybe a rad? The electrical things sorting. Add on paint/labour. That's the end of it TBH.
Why? Unless they write it off. In which case, it doesn't matter to you as you'll have a payout.
Do as fudgey said and fix it. Get the bits you need for on here, eBay, Clio breakers and then find a bodyshop to spray. This is the season for Cups to die, so you might be lucky and find stuff in the...
It's not good enough and he was happy to reply quickly when he wanted the money but afterwards things are different.
You covered your arse with PayPal so you won't lose out. I hate PayPal gift. I can see why they've created it but it causes so many problems on here.
If I'm honest, people constantly bugging on eBay is f**king annoying.
'Did you get my payment?' 'Has it been posted yet?' 'Did you get my email?' 'Please reply to me'
Couriers aren't keeping to those deadlines at all. It's the busiest time of year, which is doubling delivery times, add on the...
Yeah, emails will go to your registered account.
There's no username. It's just the account password.
Do you have an iPhone? Go to the app store and click to download something. It will show a pop-up box and ask for the password that matches that account. So at least you'll know which email...
