Standard aerial that actually gets reception ftw.

That's not confirming anything though, is it? Just that they will insure your car with the mods on, not that they are covered like for like. That said, I don't know what you asked them so I'm sure you've got it all covered, you're not as daft as you look matey

Lol

It's all down to practice. When I first got mine I crawled in and out, nowadays I can fling myself in and out with ease.

Dude, chill! If you've been on here that long you know we're only playing! That said, if there is an issue with the car (i.e. previous crash damage etc) then it would be beneficial to publicise it here, so that future owners don't get misled. Not saying you've done anything wrong at all, we all ditch cars off at the dealer in less than perfect condition sometimes, just it's nice to have a history of Zeds.

£18K sounds a much more realistic fee for writing a 370 off! Sounds like the best idea to walk away.

Realistically if a superbike decides to take off and it's not on a motorway and no helicopter above, then there's pretty much zero chance of being caught.

Whatever floats your boat honey

I swear to god that if the OP doesn't come back and let us know what's happening, I'm gonna have to go postal

^^^ Best post in the entire thread. Road parasites is an awesome term!

Ah, I see what you mean now Tbh, I have no idea. I started to write something out, then realised it sounded like complete b*llocks so deleted it I guess that's why people are paid far more money than me to make sure stuff works. In theory, as long as you keep names separate then it'll be fine. What happens when Joe Smith sells a car to another Joe Smith, I've no idea!

You'll be fine. You will definitely get a CEL unless you have O2 sensor extenders on the pipes.

But if they want to, what's the problem? Out of all the things to pick on cyclists for, their choice of clothing doesn't seem to be a big one.

I'm guessing the system won't care how many people try and tax a car, so long as it is taxed. More money for them, I guess.

You ring the automated phone line and pay for tax that way.

I disagree. If it gets you in the correct mindset, then it's worthwhile. A normal t-shirt and shorts might not encourage you to push harder, but wearing the 'correct' gear might well make you beat that PB or go the extra mile, literally. For a lot of cyclists, especially those at club level who do take part in proper events but who aren't pro, it's no different from the people on trackdays who wear the proper gear instead of jeans and a t-shirt. If you can afford the best, then why not? No harm in it.

Come on chaps, give the guy a break: He's clearly got the right intention here, and tbh is posting in probably the best place. Perhaps the title could've been better ('Owner of MY0* coupe/roadster M9 CAX please read'?), but fair play for coming clean.

Time, more than anything. I will miss not doing it myself, but these days I'd rather drive it than faff around fitting stuff. Must be getting old, I reckon.

And that link is based on an actual car, so imagine how much more to create your own and add the running gear...

What do they do at the moment?

Mate, not being funny but you've no chance at getting something decent for that money. Unless you can design your own space frame via CAD and have an idea of suspension and chassis design so it doesn't handle like an utter pig, as well as being able to complete everything from painting to wiring to interior fitment to IVA stuff then £25k would be wildly off the mark. Even vaguely decent replicas based on actual cars (albeit ones with four pots) are coming in at around £20K minimum. For a design and build package for that, I would guess at a near doubling of that at the very least. Maybe I'm wrong and maybe I'm miles out, but I certainly wouldn't think that £25k is realistic I'm afraid. That said, it's a good idea and if you can do the entire build after the space frame for that cost then massive fair play to you.

£40k no chance. Closer to £140k with options, if they ever make it.

Every now and then I'm correct, I just don't tend to make a habit of it Glad it's all sorted for you mate

The only recent Audi V12 is a diesel, so probably not the best for a Lambo replica Total budget for the build?

Long term I guess it'll save the government money, but there's a huge cost element to setting up a new system. Never mind we're all going to pay more VED because everyone keeps buying low emission vehicles.
