You don’t. Or rather, you hope the MOT inspector doesn’t clock it, or change back to standard units before the MOT. Or you just don’t fit them as it’s not 1999 any more, thankfully.

If you read the survey in its entirety, then some bits are fine like forcing manufacturer recalls, or ensuring safe operation of autonomous systems. However, the section that criminalises modifying is the one that needs to be chucked out.

This has been the worst example of it recently though, not even the “OMFG NEW SUPRA!!!11” was as bad as this. And that’s hardly a looker

What looks mean, the photoshopped wish-list grey one? What concerns me is how many of these photochops we’re getting so soon, because the base car isn’t remotely exciting enough to give people the wants.

Remember that’s US gallons, our MPG will be better than that.

Cheapest ones you can get your hands on then. Tbh I always buy cheapy discs, and then adjust my budget for whatever pads I want to run depending on use.

Do you read anything anyone says, or just skip a few lines and chuck out some random nonsense? At risk of blowing my own trumpet, I think you’ll find my logic and reasoning to be quite infallible on this. I can state with absolute certainty that you are incorrect, my dear fellow.

Like I said, it’s not as clear cut as it initially sounds. Plenty of wrangling between all three parties I feel, and this is where you find out just how decent your insurer actually is. Who is it, btw? You're kinda right in saying that liability rests with the insurer as far as the policyholder is concerned, but as far as the insurer is concerned the liability is with the garage and they may feel that they should not shoulder the burden of a stolen car when it wasn’t in their care and clearly parked in a non-secure location. At that point they may want their money before paying out to the OP.

There’s what is right in fact, and there’s what is right in law. The trouble is the car at the time belonged to the OP, not the insurer. No agreement had been made as far as finalising the claim was concerned, hence why this is not as straight forward as you may think.

Interesting question. Technically the garage is 100% responsible and will need to claim via their liability insurance, however I suspect that’s void as they did not have it inside their compound which I bet is a term of their insurance, so you’d be stuck in a fight between the insurers and the garage. Their insurers have no liability to you, so if they refuse a payout then you have to chase the garage via court with all the risks that takes. Your own insurer would be well within their rights to play hardball, but it’s complicated by the fact they chose where to send the car so have a duty to you. It’s a shame really, as that would be a nice way to avoid a claim and your excess, but hey ho.

Tbh if you totally stay off boost then you’ll be fine, just baby it there.

Disconnect the waste gate arms so you cannot make boost during the drive, reduces any risk to practically zero.

I mean if he does can we go round and key the crap out of it, to devalue it and make him learn his lesson? I feel that’s appropriate.

If you go FWD I will disown you.

I would imagine it also has a knock sensor, which helps.

I’m sorry, “Rayseng wheels”?!?!?? kinda lost interest in anything else he had to say after that! Front does look okay there, I’ll admit. Rest of the car looks gopping. It’s such an incohesive mess from the A pillar backwards.

I buy loads of stuff from ECP, regardless of car

Anything that complies to BS 7800 will do just fine, if we want to be pedantic about it. Which I very much enjoy

Pre-production seats, too.

98 only on anything earlier than a HR 350Z. Else you risk serious engine damage.

After seeing the photos, it’s what I did over my screen

*spaff*

The Z wouldn’t even see which way the Emira went. Unless Lotus sent all their engineers out for coffee and let the work experience lads and Mabel the tea lady have a go, what you are looking at is probably the finest driver’s car this side of… well, an Elise. The finance deals touted for these are spectacular too, I can see these selling out very quickly.
