Also looks like it's missing at least 1 of the roof strips for some bizarre reason.

Best strategy tbf, can't win against an internet mob, give it two weeks and everyone will have moved onto something else.

Anyone got any experience with these type of home blast cabinets, waste of money or surprisingly good? https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/heavy-duty-blast-cabinet/ https://www.sgs-engineering.com/ssb100-shot-blast-cabinet

Haha all in good time, crawling underneath cars in the winter is a young mans game.

Enjoying the thread very informative photos! Don't suppose you remember the part number for the oem lines?

Hot hatches should be naturally aspirated.

Guy this morning sent me an "urgent" email at 6ish, I'm out on site so it auto replied saying please ring if its urgent. He just sent me a reminder email asking if I'd seen the first one. 🤦‍♂️

No I'd take him to court like a normal person...

What a stupid thing to say, it's a car ffs.

Makes me laugh all the ones commenting stuff about "beating him up" look like a light breeze would knock them down.

If the police are investigating the other guy for burglary and assault it suggests it's not so clear cut. Seems strange he would allow them to keep the car for 18 months if there wasn't a genuine dispute from the garage.

Ah so it revs fine but doesn't move at all? If so look at your driveshafts or the gearbox for failures.

Engines gone pop?

Gave it a quick clean yesterday to see what it's going to need bodywork wise and get some protection on the paint. Seems to be in really good condition, going to need some paint on the rear bumper, a few rusting stone chips touch ups and the usual filler cap fix. The spoiler also had a bad...

True, but it’s big jump financially and time wise hiring people, so I can appreciate why people don’t do it.

Planning similar myself soon, What paint did you use?

Word of mouth, It was 5 mins walk from my house.

Mate had his plates cloned after sticking pictures up on the web, saving myself the hassle.

Once I’ve flogged the cat out of it, will be effectively a free car too. :ROFLMAO:

Picked this up today for £400, 55k miles on the clock but it hasn’t moved in 5 years. Started almost straight away on the key to my surprise, sounds like the water pumps knackered and the rear brakes are seized on so had to drag it back. Plan is minimal mods but renewing everything so that...

You will need a piece to match up to the olive joint on the cat, or cut it off and weld on a sleeve joint.

What’s the £500 for it’s £115 on the dvla?

Just take a trailer test it’s pretty easy to pass, All you have to do is reverse it into a parking space, drive down the road for 10 minutes then unhook it.

Those of you with 4-5+ cars how are you dealing with insurance? Especially for cars that are going to sit on the drive for a while getting repaired, don’t get much use etc.

yes, But you can also get at it underneath by removing the wheel and arch liner.

If you haven't got any leaks then a seized rear caliper can also cause this.

Subsribed on the tube. Tho a first glance I thought it said minstrel motorsport, which I thought was a bold move.

Not really related but I'm sure I saw someone fit a set of porsche 3 pots to a clio, but possibly I dreamt it.
