Its the classic sports and car races+national kit and performance car show at donington park this weekend(30/31 august),entry is £15 on the gate....seems like a bargain for all thats happening.Me and the mrs are going on sunday,anyone else up for this...would be good to convoy down.
 
Looking to get some bits sprayed on the car:

Bonnet,
bumper,
both wings,
mirror caps

Also got loads of dents I need pulling out. Can anyone recommend a decent bodyshop around Tamworth? I know of Ultimate car solutions, thats about it..

Cheers!

What's insurance like then? How old are you? (If you don't mind me asking)
I'm 17, been driving for 8 months and iirc I payed to avoid a black box as I go out to work at awkward times and it was about £2600 to insure standard

Fwark that's a lot! I started driving at 20 so I missed all this haha, the 182 was £1200 when I got it, 1.2 was only £900 :)

17 is a tough age to get a car that doesn't cost the earth though lol!

Yeah the Clio hasn't been a bad car just its rather awkward to insure but I couldn't get much cheaper without going for a van

Well he's a mechanic and knows his sh*t, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend him... What's the issue?
Non starter, bit of an odd one though as its weak spark on all 6 cylinders but a, unable to trace any faults in the wiring

cheers mate I will give you a shout if they aren't on by then. I just don't have the tools to do it here, or the space.

Just following on from the Evo Triangle thread here....its terrible when you have money sitting waiting but when you ask friends,garages for quotes and they either come back too high or just make you wait two or three days...grrrrrrr.
