  1. yea, sorry its late. what you just said.... thats what i was thinking. but i wasnt sure how much time i was allowed under 'temporary', and, if i would sell it in time.
  2. Ok take this scenario: 2 cars in household. One is SORN, car ''Z'' (no insurance). Other one has both me and missus as drivers, me as main policy holder. Car ''TT'' completing deal on new car tomorrow, car 'F', which means i need to take out a second policy on car F. Car TT is staying. Perfect, this works. but then how to i sell Z? The only option i could think of was to move the TT insurance to Z as a temporary 'courtesy car', like for repairs sort of thing. But that still poses issue of what to do if i need to extend it? I cant just transfer policy over to Z in full as that will require TT needing to be SORNED too. correct? Such a ballache. shouldve sold it while still insured!
  3. Hey guys, so my car is SORN at the moment, and without insurance (still has MOT). been on driveway for 4-6 weeks. just got back from an extended period overseas, so ready to sell the car to make room for its replacment. but, whats the best way of doing this? If i take out a brand new policy just to sell it, im going to have to either cancel it once it goes OR my replaceement (which is arriving very soon!) will have to also be uninsured, as i can only have 1 policy on the go? anywayway... waffling. so i want to sell a car privately, people will want to test drive it. Tax isnt transferred between drivers now anyway. but whats best way to insurace for a short period of time? Just got a price for a 28-day temp insurance and it was £300 more than last years annual (@ about £750!) wow. i seem to recall HPI doing a free driveway insurance with their check thingy but looking online that seems to be valid from a dealer only as it is asking for a code. thanks guys x
  4. met you in Bright InCarNation meet just a couple of weeks ago. forgotten your username possibly The Punisher? not sure. black 350z (or very dark purple) with like a purple and white 'waves' vinyl and high spoiler. we were sitting in traffic by Gravesend yesterday at 6pm. You had your window open, but did not turn around to TOOT, TOOT, TOOOOOOOOT of the car next to you..... that was me! lol.
  5. Admin. Please lock thread. Many Thanks
  6. *sorry. i'll go for Dan instead. easier
  7. cheers guys, Ekonda, i asked. its fine thanks for feedback guys. i'll amend it.
  8. Its about to go onto Autotrader + others. £10k is reasonable, isnt it?
  9. First post edited.... Available now !
  10. Change of job, moving to London where i cant park a car. Owned the car for 18 months (30,000 miles ive done!). FSH, its been to Abbey everytime since ive had it. There is a full build thread here: its not to heavy to read. i finished the build in 3 months http://www.350z-uk.c...print-complete/ Mod list: Performance Mods - 2006 Airbox - 5/16 plenum spacer - Cobra HFCs - Toyo Y-pipe - Cobra Non-resonated catback - Lightweight single-mass flywheel - UpRev ECU tune -Tuned for 99ron - Current Power: 272hp@hubs, 307hp@fly Engine Bay Visuals - Skull Green Flame Dipped Parts - Dipped Engine cover - Dipped quarterguards - Dipped strutbrace feet - Dipped Intake tubing - Sprayed ‘Z’ Core strut brace - Sprayed Slam Panel - Sprayed Battery and Fluid covers Interior & ICE - Full Pioneer system. - Pioneer iPod Touchscreen Double-Din Headunit - Custom ‘Z’ Background on the Headunit - 350w of speaks in the front - 240 watts in the rear - 1600watt Pioneer amp - 1200watt Pioneer Sub - Colour coded rear strut cover - Ice-blue LED interior lights - Carpeted boot divider Exterior Mods - Do-Luck front bumper - Do-Luck side skirts - INGS+ Rear bumper, with black diffuser - JDM Celica rear spoiler - Short 4†stubby aerial - Carbon Fiber B-pillars - Dark Tint all rear 3 windows. - LED side lights (Not DLRs) - 19†10-Spoke Bola ZZR alloys - 245/35/19 and 275/35/19 rubber there are a couple of items that need addressing: - The front bumper needs a respray due to stone chips galore. I would recommend going back to RT Performance for a proper colour match. - Front camber arms are worn and need replacing, was going to send into Abbey for this but can remove cost from price if buyer wants to do themselves / elsewhere. - Service is due as its on 60k, same as above though. I can do, buyer can do. We can work that out. - MOT to end of September. Can put on a new ticket on before sale if needed, i have no doubt it will pass. Same terms as above. - Sound system, plastic rattles. needs sound deadening never got around to it. Other than that, paintwork is pretty spot on. Tyres have all been changed in the last 2k miles. Currently 59,000 on the clock. I think I am the 4th owner, i dont have the log book in front of me. if anyone wants this confirmed i can do. HPI clear. >> Available - Now << I am taking part in the Z club meet of the Scotland tour. Which means ideally i would like to keep the Z for that trip, hence the available from 24th May. However, I may be persuaded to sell before depending on buyer and situation. So, some pictures from some of the meets. (When i get daylight tomorrow, i will take a picture of the front bumper to show stone chips. ) £10,500. Will listen to offers, especially if sold through the Z forum. I'd like it to stay here :- )
  11. general question, with Auto Trader being a bit pants compared to previous Hacon days. and also expensive to put up an advert, ebay has time wasters, and Piston Heads has joy riders. Owners club members dont need another Z, and dealers not wanting a modified car.... where would you sell yours? hypothetically... if it was an Astra it wouldnt be an issue.
  12. i've tagged this same bloke before... no answer. (ive done work for VM before and spotted him )
  13. mmm, casual bump? i thought someone might have piped up by now
  14. hmmm this is tricky.... amazing venue, but im a little upset that S.Seige (as an event) isnt here. if the organisers from last year are going to brands, then i think i'll do Brands. whats the general thoughts guys?
  15. cool. i know its a different venue, but is it the same organisers?
  16. When are people swapping out their OEM shocks, aside from leaks or MOT failures. im hitting 60k now, and its starting to feel a little sloppy on hard corners. the 'corner push' still does the nice one bounce though. couldnt find much on the searches. think it might me time for me to Coil Over.
  17. one or 2... i was thinking more of my bad eyesight
  18. ive been there and used them. they do a good job. for that reason, they are very busy! their waiting list was about 8 weeks when i went (12 months ago). just keep trying. i found a good email subject title helped. an email saying 'quote' wont help. try 'Quotation for Reg AC12 PDD with splitter' it helps them spot an email from someone who wants work, and someone whos bored and fishing for quotes.
  19. i get 41mg in my DE on a 65mph motowy run. (cruise control). at 70-75 its an easy 33-35mpg. around town, 25-26. thats with a remap. ive added pictures and a thread before. ive not made the numbers up.
  20. would you be happy to have it collected/sent va pallet?
  21. i seem to recall with just ignition,. that oil pressure is 0? no? when when cold, pressure is around or just over 90psi usualy (3/4 mark) on idle.
  22. A very American way of advertising. i'm not due to pay my automobile cover until fall. I will miss out.
  23. does the JWT literally attach to the end of the MAF pod?
