I always had this problem with DIY lacquering, I think it needs to be left to cure for AGES.

Sorry? I wasn't joking. Plenty of members on here willing to lend a hand etc.

Should have bought that Kev. Would have kept the colour scheme going. Love the plate mate, very unique.

I love the colour, that's a nice plate and the exhausts look great. All in all, looks awesome.

Fit 'em yourself!

That looks so damn tidy. Insane for a car of that age. Proper distinctive looking old hatch, awesome.

As true as that may be, I'm not prehistoric.. :o

Guy drove off. Parked next to a TTRS in the services, went in, came out, TTRS gone, scratch on car. Tosser. It's only very minor, but it's on the drivers side so I see it all the time. Will be being fixed.

Light graze to rear wing on the other side. It was TT RS! I picked the fucker because I thought they'd be careful!! I need to talk to that bodyshop of yours, see what it can be sorted for if a PC doesn't make it disappear enough.

That must have been very light footed. I manage to get that in the z4 when only motorway.

If you mean "has anyone else hit it whilst I wasn't even in it?" yes actually, but it's very minor.

It depends upon age normally now, but given that he has a v6, a ph1 and this seat, I think he may be older than 25 ;) (I could be wrong).

I heard a story once, where someone was really stuck with regards to taxing a vehicle... I heard they asked for a digital copy of my current insurance policy and then change the registration before printing it out.. Just a story mind.

No you cannot drive it as the car has to be insured for what you're talking about to be in force. You can try your current insurer and check to see if they'll add it one for two weeks, this often works out cheaper. Alternatively, temp cover websites, just google temporary insurance and the...

Personally: Phone him up, explain that his cover is only third party and doesn't cover the damage to your car. Ask nicely if he is willing to pay for the damage he's done. Make it clear you'll get a few quotes and go with the best one as you're not trying to con him out of anything...

Just remove it entirely, looks better and it's not essential anyway. Shame some people can't respect others property though :(

"Cheap TVR" he says... four new tyres later...

Well my bosses aren't here, so I figured tonight would become now. Popped down to the grasshopper meet Saturday (I figured I'd better as I organised it ;) ) A few took some photos: Good variety of cars there, I gave Tyler the keys and I jumped in the VX to compare, the verdict is that...

It is, I peeled it off yesterday and found two things... 1) The underneath one has cracks all around the edges 2) It actually looks better with the black badge due to the VERY monochrome interior. To us "BMW people" it may look a bit china-spec, but it actually suits it IMO. Cheers mate...

Re: My A1 (to be) Thread That looks lovely Laura, really nice. Give it 9 months and you'll sell to buy a z4m.

That looks bloody lovely, shame about the gearbox, but it's lovely all the same. Can't believe you got rid of the 197 though. Genuine question, aren't you at the point now where you have to register yourself as a trader to the DVLA? Isn't it a certain amount of cars per year?

I'll look for other car friendly pubs out in the country, I'm sure there must be plenty. I only found this one because I went with the mrs and family and there was a meet going on down the back! Next time a nice big table could be booked without an issue, but numbers would have to be 100%...

Nice pics mark, good to see you too mate.

Last time I went to TW, we went bowling!

182 rear bench matches perfectly?

What's there? i.e are we just going to be standing in a car park?

If you want to ask anything mate, feel free. As for qualifications, I think it's like a level one, level two type thing. I haven't done any yet, but will be doing one soon just so I'm "officially" qualified.

I'm going to be having a go at the zed electric window switches later this week. I've done bits before, if you don't get it too hot and over stretch so that it doesn't try to retract and eventually just give, it's easy enough to work with.

Awesome. The seats make it.

They actually look OK in black, also, black wheels ALWAYS look better in person. Personally, I prefer silver but it's your car.
