  1. SOLD for £10,370 (just for all the daft people offering me 9k) - Mods please can you lock the thread? Thanks, Toby
  2. Final price drop - £10500
  3. Last price drop before it goes on PistonHeads. £11250 ovno
  4. Still for sale. Price drop to 11.5k
  5. Ins Co have kindly removed the false and incorrect CAT-D flag from both HPI and Experian databases for me! Car is now officially HPI clear. :smthumbup Ran another HPI check myself just to make sure (below):
  6. Exactly what I did. Loved my Z but just wasn't usable power out here in the countryside. Anything you want to know about my Evo, just ask mate. ðŸ‘
  7. Following a kind member of MLR (thanks mate!) pointing out to me that my car is currently listed as a CAT-D write-off - I have realised that it is (obviously I hadn't HPI checked my own car SINCE I bought it). This is an administrative screw-up by my insurance comany at the time (who've also currently been insuring me since with it not listed as one). I have contacted their complaints department and insisted they remove the 'flag' from the HPI database. Below is a copy of the letter they sent me back in 2012 which confirms it was NOT written off. I'll reply again to this post once I have confirmation from them it is now HPI clear (as it always should have been). Hopefully this hasn't put too many people off - car will be HPI clear before sale! Insurance companies - it's not like we pay them!
  8. Surprised by lack of genuine interest (though I guess maybe no one is posting questions as my ad is fairly comprehensive?). Still for sale after a week bump.
  9. Underneath and obligatory (real MR proof shot):
  10. Interior Pics (guess I know what the max post size is now = 10000 characters): Thanks mate!
