  1. Mixture of Dans advice from me..........do not ignore them - engage - dispute - argue and then attend court if it gets that far. Never, ever admit liability and never ever get angry. I'll tart any emails or letter you want to send up for you if you want me too - I'm not any sort of legal counsel by the way......just a professional pain in the arse.
  2. + 1

    oh cock...

    Do zed's have a 'hub carrier'? I did the same thing once and I knackered the hub carrier.
  4. That sound very good value mate.......Priced to sell but that to me is a total 'no offers' price
  5. In the plus side (or down side depending on how your breads buttered) at least you're not going to have your salad 'tossed' by the B wing 'daddy' Big Bubba.
  6. +1 with Stew on this one.......just because its popular it doesn't mean its not sexy.
  7. Bollocking Fine Points Insurance claim End of.......if you're unlucky
  8. While you at it get the wheels refurbed and hand the refurber the new tyres to save on fitting costs then as sarnie said get the price back up!
  9. Boo hiss! I want after pictures! Me likey seeing broken things being fixed
  10. Looks like RHD to me
  11. Dry carbon finish can be done as well to give people a rough idea, the piece above would be £250 (primarily because it's such an arse to do), with the gear surround/upper dash combo being £200. So £450 for the whole central cabin section. Door switch covers would be £50. To put it in perspective that's hundreds of pounds cheaper than the RSW kits (If you can get them) which don't include the centre console (I.E the biggest part) for something that doesn't look stuck-on. That.........is some good value right there. Excellent work mate
  12. Is it not the same with anything like this though? Why is an import worth less than a UK model........not really any proper explanation other than it just 'is'. Maybe it was owned by the Jap Stig or maybe it was wiped with a diaper for the first 5 years of its life. Maybe a car was stolen by a smack rat, thrashed, smashed into kerbs, filled with normal unleaded (the horror!) or maybe it was stolen by a professional car theif parked in a heated garage whilst waiting for George Adedguengo to come and pick it up. One doesn't know so it leaves an element of uncertainty.........therefore its worth less. Problem is if you apply these theories to normal UK car's you'd never buy a car again because lets face it if Zeds are in the price range where scrotters and 19 year olds can afford them then anything can happen........not to mention the people who are rich enough to own one and not give a @*!# so they thrash the balls off it and couldn't care less. In summary..........its worth less just 'because'. Provided you payless and expect to sell for less who cares.
  13. Yes but thats not quite the same as some crackpipe chasing smack rat spreading his aidsy little mitts all over the car whilst smashing it over kerbs and other general twatteridge. Surely the insurance would cover it or write it off then? Why because there are sack rat germs and it been thrashed over kerbs and the like? Doubt it personally.
  14. Saved me five minutes of typing
  15. I bet its something ridiculous as well. I love the A6 for some reason
  16. Yes but thats not quite the same as some crackpipe chasing smack rat spreading his aidsy little mitts all over the car whilst smashing it over kerbs and other general twatteridge.
  17. Literally unbelievable. Having taken the odd shot in the bollocks as a goalkeeper over the years this defines hard in my opinion. Lets just really put what has happened into perspective........ Ruptured defined 1.(esp. of a pipe, a vessel, or a bodily part such as an organ or membrane) Break or burst suddenly. Burst knacker and played on!!!!!! Strewth!
  18. Pay retail and be convinced........the sound will make you wee with delight.
  19. Why? Sorry but just because you can find one or two cheaper examples doesn't automatically mean the car is overpriced. Look on PH and autotrader, the going rate for this age and mileage is between £6500 and £7500. Yes it's at the top end but it's hardly 'way overpriced'. Also worth bearing in mind that although you never get the full value of mods, it does have a pretty expensive HKS exhaust on. Annoys me that because someone saw a UK car once for £5500 that's apparently what they're all worth now and anything else is overpriced. /rant DB Fair play I actually read the listing wrong......I thought that was just the first bid not the asking price.
  20. Mucho kudos
  21. Ossum! Already getting on for overpriced IMHO

    My Volks are on...

    Very nice
  23. He might be dyslexic!!! This is true, I was feeling a little mean back from work. Now I'm mellow Doesnt stop you using the spell check facility on autotrader though! If your Dyslexic it might! He may not have been able to read it! Just like he put down the wrong figures in the price:) Is there one on here? good shout!

    Mileage

    Ffs! Ok so a clutch is a bad example my point being that a car with 100k nonwithstanding the 'bullet proof' engine has other parts that are going to be worn after 100k.....if your buying on a budget and looming at high milers just to be wary of this fact. There are bushes, arms, bearings, gearboxes, clutches, hoses and other assorted crap that arre not going to last forever (like the engine can) and can still mount up to a whole sack of cash.

    Mileage

    I know but my point being its all well and good buying a car with 100k because the engine is sound but dont expect it to be large cost free (well comparativly.....spending a grand on a new clutch is a lot to me
