Sam.

Bristol close enough?

 

[ModMySam]

I was thinking a bit closer but nice to know there are people near me on here!

Shame you don't come here more often in the clio, would be great to have a meet up with everyone in cardiff/swansea and the surrounding areas.

 

[Oldtimer49er]

It's a hell of a way across from Bristol, bad enough having to do Swansea, usually go to Carmarthen at the same time, maybe next year in the summer, might get a run out over in the clio

I'm in Swansea, don't own a Clio though

I might be here a while haha quite a list, where did you get the tinted windows done and how much did they cost?

 

[Jaff.]

£140 because of the awkward back window

was a guy in town hill, don't know if he's there anymore though

Not a bad price overall, someone told me to try tint center wales

 

[Jaff.]

Not sure, I tried lots of different places but none of them were really that interested. I used him as it wasn't far from college and I left it with him for the morning

Thats fair, just been looking through your megane project thread - wow you really know your stuff! Thats one nice looking megane!

What college you go to?

 

[Jaff.]

At the time I was in Swansea college (tycoch) I'm working now but do day release to the same college

I was in gorseinon, working now been thinking about doing a car mechanics course

 

[Jaff.]

Cool. Car mechanics course would be pretty good but I doubt there's much scope for progression down here

 

[ModMySam]

I just want to do it for my own personal projects rather than get a job or anything out of it

 

[Jaff.]

Fair enough. Although I'd hedge a bet that you'd learn the majority of what you need to know by just cracking on with it and doing it

 

[ModMySam]

Yea probably, youtube is a great tool for learning same as this forum

 

[Jaff.]

This and another forum is where I learnt everything I could about my car. The rest was learnt from ripping it apart and trying to put it back together

i am lucky to have a good mate who is good with cars, and I'm a mechanic/sparky anyway so that helps

 

[ModMySam]

Thats pretty cool and also saves a lot of money! Want to fit some lowering springs soon, my insurance is so high at the moment though and wont let me have modifications till im 21 so if i do it i'll have to risk the insurance finding out..

 

[Jaff.]

That's up to you. Springs are easy to fit though
