Blue_Joe 0 Posted December 19, 2006 It doesn't actually do anything - just a toy so to speak. Wait till you've got sound and watch the adverts, you'll get it then! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted December 28, 2006 Will have to give Chris Knott a call.. my renewal is up soon and i'm determined to get insured with someone who can accept modified cars! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted December 28, 2006 Blue_Joe, glad it's getting sorted so simply! I'm sure it will be back looking better than ever before long :) Jim, I just renewed with Adrian Flux. They actually increased my premium to £490!!! It was £400 last year. However, after a bit of haggling, have got them down to £331. First they offered me £378, but they gave me another £47 off as CCGB discount! They're also not going to up it at all when I get the VR, and they're not gonna charge me the usual £25 admin to swap it over. Very impressed with them.

Blue_Joe 0 Posted January 9, 2007 So I picked up my rear bumper today after having the exhaust sut out repaired after being melted ages ago by the exhaust! Had 3 other modifications done to it, a couple are fairly common and obvious, can you spot them all???? I'm super happy with the way it turned out and can't wait to see the finished article! The rest of the car is coming along very well, just waiting on the few last parts to arrive (including sourcing ANOTHER bonnet - Thanks Parcel Force!!!) for final mods and then in for paint. Seeing how it is progressing and knowing all the plans - I can't wait to see the finished article! Will keep you all posted but leave you with these pics to be getting on with!!!
