smudgedon Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Went to see this today, lovely example and it's got a few little bits like rear wipes removal, carbon lip on the bumper and carbon air flow thingy under the bonnet Any info would be great Quote
Neilp Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Would help if we could see the side etc to see the wheels and stuff Quote
smudgedon Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 Sorry Neil I'm on my phone Get another picture later Quote
Ricey Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 the only one I can see thats close is this - may have had roof/spoiler/wheel mods removed prior to selling? viewtopic.php?f=26&t=26361 Quote
Ricey Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Yep - if you look at Dominiques first post that looks very familiar. Not got orange side reflectors in the bumper either. Quote
Ricey Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15543 This is it when it was stock......bet its been stripped prior to sale (apart from the odd bit) Quote
smudgedon Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 Nice one ricey Any idea if it was looked after? tonnes of history with it Quote
Stew Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Nice one ricey Any idea if it was looked after? tonnes of history with it Why don't you PM the ex owner of the car........ Quote

Just becuase they haven't logged in - doesn't mean they've not been looking through active topics. In addition to that they'll also get an e-mail to let them know they have received a PM as all users do Quote

BulletMagnet Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Last car I saw her in was a black Porsche Cayman S The front bumper reflectors are wired to the indicators Quote
Chilli Red Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Dom sold her car well over a year ago. She looked after it extremely well, but i think she sold it by px for her porker. If it is her old car then for about three years it was very well looked after. Quote
HaydnH Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 If it is Dom's car then it's had an Uprev at Abbey as well according to what I can find on the forum. Quote
spursmaddave Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 If it is Dom's car then it's had an Uprev at Abbey as well according to what I can find on the forum. No guarantee it still has it though Quote

Not actually removable item unless you have the hardware and software to do it with I couldn't see any evidence that Dom sold the license in the part out thread, anyone know if Abbey keep a log of engine/chassis numbers in their Uprev license database, assuming they have 1? Could be worth having a word with Mark to see if you can confirm the car is the same one and whether it still has a license. Quote

Not actually removable item unless you have the hardware and software to do it with Yes but the license is saleable isn't it and that is most of the cost Almost certainly it is still on the car but it can't be taken for granted that was my point... If it has then a nice bonus and I doubt the dealer would even be aware Quote
smudgedon Posted July 8, 2012 Author Posted July 8, 2012 Would the uprev make the exhaust note a bit louder due to the extra power? Was certainly a bit beefier when i gave it a boot on the test drive Quote
spursmaddave Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Would the uprev make the exhaust note a bit louder due to the extra power? Was certainly a bit beefier when i gave it a boot on the test drive A plenum spacer would which is common to add with an uprev. How many Zeds have you driven, the uprev makes the throttle much more responsive :wink: Quote

How many Zeds have you driven, the uprev makes the throttle much more responsive :wink: Driven a dozen or so now but the last one was about a month ago so i can't really remember what to compare it against Didn't look for the plenum as i didn't know it may have been uprev'd, what's the plenum look like? I noticed that some of the earth leads had been changed i think, they were a sort of bronze/gold colour rather than the usual black i think Can see them in the top left corner of this pic i took Quote
Ricey Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 The plenum is the big cast aluminium chamber that the air intake pipe goes into. You'd struggle to see if its had a spacer put on I think. That does look like an aftermarket grounding kit. Quote
smudgedon Posted July 8, 2012 Author Posted July 8, 2012 Well thanks for all your help and input guys, reading up on the car it seems to have been well looked after From my drive yesterday, bodywork is immaculate, interior is very good and the drive is superb Fresh MOT and service from the dealer, and they now have 200 of my English pounds as a deposit for me to pick her up next week Quote
