Agreed, crash bar definitely needs replacing.

WIM in MK? They are very good, they did the setup on my MX5 for me and it was very well done.

I partially agree with Alex. Unless you get on a dyno, you'll never know if they've added power at all and that certainly wasn't why you fitted them, was it? I would declare no power gains. I would however declare everything, BUT that depends on what they're asking for. If they ask for everything that doesn't come with a standard car (Admiral group do this) then you must tell them about the GT pack extras. If they ask for any non-factory fitted mods, then you don't. Read the text, follow it to the best of your ability, and if in doubt just disclose everything and let them make the call.

In theory it's not a bad idea, although given how the site works with archiving threads now I wonder if it would just be easier to create your own set of bookmarks within your browser. You could then sync that across all platforms, if using a decent browser.

Blimey. What the hell is up with those pea shooter exhausts?!

Easily done Colloquialism :p

If you have access to a Torx bit, remove the steering wheel. At the very least remove the battery and/or pull a coilpack. Basically anything to make it really awkward to steal.

Heat, every time. Working in the cold sucks balls. Mate used to have no heating in his, and it was awful. One electric heater later and it's bliss.

I think you're missing my point still matey. You will still have 8 years, but if the letter of NCB they give you only says 6 years then you can only state six years on your next policy. Your next insurer will only take what that letter states, so it's important to clarify the maximum NCB they will confirm. When you say you have a panel filter, I assume you mean an OEM one? Not changed to a Cosworth one? And an Uprev could mean a huge change with eSure, as you'll be increasing the power output with an engine remap: Definitely worth checking first.

8 laps should be plenty I think, what day are you doing it? Just wondering if you say it's great then I could still book myself in if we're out there

I looked at doing one of those experience days too, at Daytona when I'm out there next week. Like you say though, hellishly pricey and I just couldn't justify the cost. How many laps did you go for? My best mate drove one out there many years ago, said it was amazing. Enjoy fella, I'm sure you'll love it

Arsenal still need another midfielder to cover Ramsey and Sicknote Wilshere, IMHO. Plus another utility defender to cover the back line, plus a keeper... Chelsea look to be the complete team this year with Fabregas and Costa. Citeh will do well as always. Man Utd could have another difficult year if the team don't adapt to LvG's style of management, but then I think it's pretty similar to how SAF ran the team so maybe no issues there. I'm hoping Spurs will do better now they've had a year to bond as a team. Liverpool could be okay without Bitey McBiterson, but will rely very much on Sturridge & Old Man Gerrard to carry them.

Ooh that last pic isn't flattering

Lol pwnt Seriously though, ITV coverage is dreadful. Why any one would choose that, I've no idea. I could live with the adverts if the overall programme was good (Sky is a perfect example of this), but ITV offer nothing. I get that Adrian Chiles is supposed to be giving us a more relaxed and casual 'mates in the living room' approach to punditry, but he tries just that little too hard for my taste.

Sorry, maybe I was unclear on the wording of carrying over NCB. You may have 10 years NCB which eSure accept, but then when you come to move on you find they only give you a letter stating you have 6 years NCB. Not uncommon, may not make a lot of difference, but it also could do and could well be frustrating in the future. They may charge you £45 now to add the exhaust, but what if you decide to change the air filter? Or the brakes? That could be another £45 each go, if they even accept them. You could also find yourself speaking to a call centre monkey when trying to describe things on your car, and that can be very painful. Of course, they could be perfectly fine and it might well be a bargain, in which case go for it.

Don't just look at the cost, look at the overall policy. What are the opening times? What is the excess? Courtesy car included? Reviews from other customers? Glass cover? How many mods allowed? Any kind? Cost of admin fees? How much NCB do they let you carry over?

^^^ Exactly. Fronting is illegal, adding an older person as a named driver is not.

Pretty much. Also, Germany win the Hot Wags award. All absolute stunners

Lol playing Happy whilst Messi looks miserable

Just test drive for an hour or so, I would imagine. Maybe more if you pay fuel.

Get one of the small rectangle ones and stock it to the left hand side of the number plate mate, that's what I did with mine.

So, European teams can't win a World Cup in South America, eh? Great job Germany, best team in the competition won.

Independant dealer. Basically, anywhere selling one local within your price range that you might buy.

Stunning finish. Worthy of winning it.
