  3. That's good to know, the newer retailer to consumer process from my understanding is still the similar even after the manufacturers warranty period. Contact retailer, if need be submit independent report (in this case to prove the fault was present at the time of purchase) to request replacement, refund or repair. It's a shame fall out over hopefully a relatively small fix and a shame Iain has the hassle of remedying the faulty part himself. Clearly the fault was present at the time of purchase. Ultimately if this threads helps others in similar situations then it's no bad thing.
  4. For sale a pair of arguably one of the very best UHP road tyres available. Continental SportContact 6 265/35 R19 XL FR (98Y) *with rim protector Condition: New *10/10 Reason for sale: Surplus to requirements, as decided against a square set up. Price: £290 collected for the pair BARGAIN as these retail around £200+ each. Sheldon B33 in the West Midlands, very near the NEC.
  5. The Sale of Goods Act offers protection against faulty goods even when the manufacturer's guarantee has run out. The act says goods must last a reasonable time - and that can be anything up to six years from the date of purchase. 1. Contact the retailer 2. Get an independent report 3. Commission a repair: Ask the retailer to repair or replace the goods. If the repair cost is disproportionate the retailer can offer a refund of the original purchase price, though probably not a full refund. If the shop makes life difficult you can ask go to an independent repairer and reclaim the whole cost. Make sure they provide evidence of the fault. https://www.theguardian.com/money/2006/mar/25/consumernews.howtocomplain Faulty goods replaced or repaired You have the right to get faulty goods replaced or repaired if it's too late to reject them. You can state your preference, but the retailer can normally choose to do whatever would be cheapest. Under the Sale of Goods Act, the retailer must either repair or replace faulty goods 'within a reasonable time but without causing significant inconvenience'. If the seller doesn't do this, you're entitled to claim either: • a reduction on the purchase price, or • your money back, minus an amount for the usage you've had of the goods (called recision). If the retailer refuses to repair the goods, and won't replace them either, you may have the right to arrange for someone else to repair your item, and then claim compensation from the retailer for the cost of doing this. You have six years to take a claim to court for faulty goods in England, Wales and Northern Ireland; in Scotland you have five years.
  6. Looks real nice that, when the time comes I think I would opt for a 265/35 rear tyre to add a tiny bit of stretch as seen up front.
  7. I'm not entirely sure, but hopefully someone will be along thats had a similar experience with resolve.

  9. From my experience depth and gloss come from a polish or glaze, then a wax or sealant locks this in under the guise LSP. Id recommend Auto Finesse Triple with AutoGlym Ultra HD wax https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/auto-finesse-tripple-all-in-one https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/autoglym-ultra-high-definition-wax
  10. If Carlsberg did Zed updates Lovely work and subscribed to the new exhaust too, which HFC's did you opt for?
  11. Lovely to see a fair amount of UKDM footage too
  12. Nice work pal, looks a stunner for the new owner.
  13. Look smart!! I fancy a pair of singles for my 350z.
  14. £250 if wheels need a refurb & tyres are soon in need of replacement, £450 if wheels are in great shape and tyres are branded with 6mm+
  15. Japspeed K4 with the rear resonators cut out and a pair of flexi plumbed in prior OR HKS.
  16. Looks fabulous, will all four tips smoke?
  17. Very much worth replacing the clutch slave cylinder, clutch flexi hose and fluid change as first action for a sticking clutch.
  18. Best set up is meant to be the Motordyne ART pipes with XYZ y pipe, which has the option for straight through, resonated silencer or HFC. Then choose a look of y pipe back you fancy.
  19. When there is a status change, ie a change in the curriculum it's not unreasonable to ask for the back up to show it's needed. When the technical guys come out of the wind tunnel and present their new front wing will increase down force without any impact to drag. They are asked to present their data to implement change against the old front wing. Crude example, but the burden is on those wishing to implement change not those who already align with the current fixture. Semantics aside I've asked a very reasonable question, to which I've heard waffle mixed with delays and ultimately a question to my question. All of which build its own picture, in the words of Peter Jones - I'm out.
