Well anyway, I own a Toyota Glanza V as a lot of you know. It has been stripped out of all carpet, rear seats, trim, spare wheel, stereo, speakers and aircon. Weighs around 880kg or...

Hi guys
I want to relocate some gauges, turbo timer and boost controller etc, but unsure as to what type of garage I should be looking for.
Im in the N/W lads if you can recommend anywhere?
The first picture below is how it currently is, but I will be ordering some carbon fibre and 3...
OK, theoretically, lets say you have a bump, but decide mutually to not go through insurance.
You get a few quotes, seem a bit high and the guys says
"Fook it, was my fault, but prove it, I aint giving you no money and not going through insurance"
Is there a limited time you have to claim...
If they exsist!? lol!
Basically, renewal is middle of June, and I have a few mods to declare on my Glanza Turbo.
So people, could you please advice on some companies that are good for young drivers on performance cars with mods!?
Thanks all.
Hi all
Just thinking, people do so many mods to their cars.
Aftermarket filters, zorsts, sideskirts, colour coding, spoilers, lowering, rims, bucket seats, gauges, BOVs, dumpvalves, uprated intercoolers and then the rest of the engine mods, SURELY people dont declare these extensive list of...
OK, I am thinking of selling my Clio and have a question:
I want to sell my Clio and then use that money towards another car, but what if I dont find another car? Should I tell my insurance company I have sold it? Or will they cancel my policy and then i will lose my no claims for that year?
I...

Would use it only for track days and the odd drives etc?
Anyone insured one of...
Hello all
My car is going in for its 36,000 service and I have lets say 3 options:
1) Renault dealer. £270 excluding VAT !
2) Independant garage, still get book stamped.
3) Buy the parts myself and then get a garage to carry out the service so that I can retain Renault parts.
So, where can...
Why do they do this? Why cant you just leave a big deposit and then pay off the rest monthly?
Have been looking at some deals on cars and they are over 3 years with a last payment of £3000+, I dont have money like that laying around.
How have others got around this, etc? Or are you all rich?

Hi all
Finally got my cup spoiler this morning but the garage have already colour coded my motor and it should be ready tomoz.
Anyway, Ive took the cup spoiler to be painted but they said they wouldnt have time to fit it.
So my questions are:

And what...
This is coming up in around 1,000 miles.
I was wondering if anyone has a list of what they actually do for this service?
I went down today for this but the parts/service department was closed.
My warranty has expired so is it worth going to the dealer at £250 ?
