Shift gate is a good idea too, takes ten mins easy to do.

Traders on here can sort out what you need, for Oil there are Opie Oils and and I believe Zmanalex who I have bought Nissan oil from before. If you are doing the gearbox oil always worth adding a bit of molyslip as well, Zed gearboxes are notoriously clunky and molyslip will help alleviate some of the clunkyness.

Have done so Colin good call

Paypal does not offer buyer protection for the purchase of cars.

They finally came back, took over two weeks to get a quote and even then it was a case of ballpark but could cost lots more. Decided on another route. I have used TGM before so aware of what they can do, just a bit slow on this occasion, would rather go with someone who shows a bit more interest.

Yes the airbag should be off in the Zed if baby is in the front, danger to life if it goes off. Subaru or Focus ST would suit you - easily done to get them over 300bhp so you can still have fun without child on board, then become practical cars with child around...

Evo's need servicing quite regularly - if you are planning mileage in it with the baby expect to be in and out the garage frequently enough.

Try owning one of these when your little 'un comes along The wife had a Ford Focus, more than capable for a newborn and carrying all the gear you need - unless you or your wife have physical limitations, you do not need an SUV/4x4 to get one small child and their stuff around. I ended up selling the VX220 and getting an R33 Skyline, as above where you mention its two doors but as long as you are in reasonable condition its pretty easy to get the kids in and out the back, especially when they are little, you just squat in the footwell at the back with the seat forwards to put in and remove said child, it's actually quite comfortable Sensible money would be on a four door, maybe go for a Focus ST four door? We found the hatch back much more practical for putting stuff in than the saloon style boot as you can remove the parcel shelf to get larger items in (kids furniture, plastic baths, huge boxes with toys in which you will get for christmas and the like).

I can tell you which one is the aerial cable Aside from that, why on earth would someone do this? Maybe time to get a new head unit too whilst you are at it?

Good luck with getting all that sorted Adrian, bad luck in that it happened, good luck that stock seems to be intact. But still not a nice thing to have to deal with.

Yeah by all accounts he photoshops for sale ads and invents times down drag strips to put on his adverts

Both been up for sale for quite some time...

He did the roof on my Celica, great job too.

Tar remover or clay bar should aid the process worth investing in anyway if you don't have any as it helps clear front bumper of bits of crap it picks up.

Funny enough my insurer wouldn't reduce the premium for the dash cam, just that it would play a role in determining blame if it captured an accident.

Its not the value of the mod, its the likelihood that doing this will incur a theft or the like. But clearly you need to call the companies concerned to ensure what their web form has captured is what you intended to communicate to them about your car. When I put a gloss black wrap on the roof of my Celica first discussion with insurance companies was to take my insurance up £100 which was a 25% increase for example which I managed to negotiate down. I know its a pain and takes time, but phone calls will in general get you a lot further than entering stuff into web forms for a good price on modified cars.

Pretty sure there was a 'Cat D' registered car a 300zx for sale last year I saw where the seller had pics of what his ex did to it!

As Dan said ring them up - some specialists though wont be able to insure under 25, but worth trying anyway. Have a go on the price comparison sites to give yourself some benchmarks and make sure to put all your mods in (anything not standard is mod, even if it is wing mirror covers or the like you have to declare this) Prices of insurance are going up anyway https://www.confused.com/on-the-road/cost-of-motoring/what-the-price-index-means-for-you so it likely that you might be caught up in that.

Insurance job could possibly make the car Cat D by the sounds of it?

Sold - thread locked

Black looks like its on the outside, but surely would have thought if it was you could feel it. As above, try hot water to see if it shifts and move up from that i.e. Tar remover, clay etc. Cannot see how that could have happened inside the plastic?

Quite a few insurers will not be on the price comparison sites as they insure on a case by case basis and not apply generic prices based on online form submissions. So them not appearing does not mean they wont insure you...you need to call them direct.

As above, unless someone does the same job as you and lives next door its unlikely you can find something to benchmark against. Some people will have cheaper quotes some more expensive as Dan said but it doesn't really help. If its unmodified put it through one of the comparison sites and ring a few of the insurance traders on here in the sub-forum of Insurance and see what they offer you.

"Functionality" doesn't have that many Fs and Cs in?

Jeez, dun it go on! Not used the Imgur app but have all my photos stored on Imgur on my macbook so all fine. Mobiles will always have reduced capability, maybe send Imgur some well scripted feedback Dan...!
