  1. Or how to pass the attitude test?
  2. Erm, why would you ring the insurer?As long as you've answered all the questions they ask truthfully, then just buy on line. Then the price quoted is the price you pay.
  3. No. Luckily, my link is though
  4. That's the correct link then.
  5. That just leads to a page full of stuff with the hashtag #fraudmuch. Is there anything specific I'm supposed to be looking at?
  6. You certainly can, although obviously it depends on what data the car is putting out as to what it will show
  7. Sorry, that still sounds sarcastic, I don't mean it to be! Genuinely well done for getting a great price for the car, that's good going matey.
  8. Scary thought. But yeah, surprising what a well-written advert will do.
  9. Agreed. Also, pay the extra and make sure the engine builder supplies all the parts you need: That way, if anything goes wrong it's 100% down to them to fix and you don't get the hassle of "Well mate, you supplied the parts so they must be the problem..." that can happen.
  10. Thinks that low mate, i sold a jdm 03 for £1k more than that in std condition. Then you did well, or the other guy was a mug
  11. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ELM327-WiFi-OBD2-Car-Diagnostics-Scanner-Code-Reader-for-iPhone-iOS-AND-Android-/251760321498?hash=item3a9e15a3da:g:fXsAAOSw2XFUkX3U Get that. 100% works, in conjunction with Dash Command.
  12. Somewhere between £4k-£5K I reckon.
  13. Genuine megalols :lol:
  14. Yeah, heaven forbid you'd actually want some passion in your car ;) It does suck though. Can you not simply transfer your order to a different dealer?
  15. And just imagine how useless they'll be when they've actually got your money...
  16. The last thing I would do is get a 370, unless you're absolutely in love with them. It's just not that different to justify the much larger expense, and IMHO definitely not in terms of the drive. I also wouldn't get the HR. Again, not enough of a difference unless it's a car you're gonna to keep forever. Nope, I'd either mod what you have now or get something completely different. But that's just me.
  17. It's very easy to predict: If the driver doesn't change, and the road doesn't change, and you've added weight in the worst place, then unless you're capable of defeating physics the outcome will be a slower car!
  18. Then there's no reason the OBDII readers shouldn't work... What ones have you tried? I use a cheapy £10 wifi unit from eBay China, then Dash Command on iOS. Works perfectly across all cars.
  19. And that grip will be blunted by the extra weight, so you'll actually be slower.
  20. More grip when using power to exit a corner yes, but slower steering inputs into and out of the corner.
  21. Perfect, thanks bud. Makes sense, and I trust your working out lol. Btw, I meant cooling not cooking!

    New car time!

    Definitely believable! In a perfect world, we'd all drive V8s I reckon.
  23. JDM car, by any chance?
  24. Silly question, but would a thinner rad not be less efficient than a bigger one? Coming from a plumbing perspective, a bigger rad always gives off more heat which in an automotive application is what you want, more heat removed from the system. Or are you assuming the bonnet venting will make a bigger difference? Not being picky, more trying to improve my understanding of cooking systems
  25. Swap coil packs around until you find the duff one
