  1. the hotel are right, its not their responsibility. But give the local plod a call, report it as a hit and run due to the fact the person fled from the seen of the accident. They then have the authority to see the cctv and will be able to get the plate and track the person down!

     

    use the police, its what you pay your taxes for!

     

    but sorry to hear it mate, hopefully will get sorted soon

  2. one of my mates got an asbo for powersliding his ariel atom round a roundabout late at night!

     

    it seems a right shambles as i'd ask what training the people who reported it have? are they IAM? are they ex police? if not, i'm not accepting it!

  3. Make it obvious to them, If they break it they buy it! even get them to just sign a bit of paper stating this.

     

    I personally wouldn't go to the hassle to arrange fully comp insurance on a car that i'm just going to see and if i like it give a deposit and return to pay rest and pick it up later. As unless its 100+ miles away and if i like it, i'll drive it home that day.

     

    I'd only let them out in a car if i was in the passenger seat and they knew the above rule. Also maybe you drive them to an industrial estate, or carpark. Gives them enough space to check they fit with the car. There is no need on a test drive to go hooning down country roads. Read a review of the car and check it can handle country roads, then test drive it to check you and the car feel comfortable together.

  4. 11th is my big day mate no can do sorry

     

    aww come on irfan, thats not really an excuse!! :boxing:

     

     

     

    1. Neilp

    2. Jay (depending on rota)

    3. Stephen

    4. Gibby

    5. Cragus (should be good for this )

    6. Paulie (transfered from other thread by Neilp)

    7. jacr87

    8. D13vyl

    9. scotZ (Sandy)

    10. Adam (maybe, depends if i'm back in Glasgow for the week before)

  5. a caterham is quicker 0-60 than a lot of supercars but top speed is lacking.

     

    i'd class hyper cars as anything daft and capable of over 200mph

     

    some things i'd agree with "souped up" as the astra vxr (especially the ring version) is quick as fook same with the clio v6.

     

    reliability is also something to consider. I'd say tvr is a supercar over a sports car cause they are seen more in a garage being fixed than on the road.

  6. As from a police officer friend,

     

    Undertaking is legal, may be a slight grey area depended on the officer you deal with.

     

    Their is no exact law on "undertaking" as above it is just the act of overtaking slower moving traffic. Similar to filtering on the motorbike.

     

    Be wary though, as above also stated. If you were to weave in and out of the traffic then you are more likely to be booked for dangerous driving, or driving without due care.

     

    It is all in the way you do it! be sensible, and you'll be fine. do it like a tit and be wary of the blue lights.

  7. where have you been lurking Adam ???

     

    Irfan my garage / workshop will be out my back garden...you do remember how big that is right ?

     

    i will put adverts in all the usual places today and see what feedback i get and if no ones interested at this point i will proceed with the super charger and sell it next year

     

    all my supercharger parts will be leaving the good ol USA this week :evil:

     

    Paul

     

    I've been lurking in the background occasionally checking but not posting much, going to try and start posting more now thought.

     

    If you were really wanting to get rid of it, i'd say stick it on strathy cruise as they all seem to have their jaws on the floor when they see it!

  8. i'd be interested in meet 1 and 2, meet 1 i'd either be on the bike, in the wee clio or need to be somones co-pilot. Means i can find what good roads are about here, as all i've found so far was a brilliant road about an hours drive away, taking me all the way to the borders and a short one from acklam to stokesly.
