second time i've seen that 19 on ebay in 4 months.

that car used to belong to a guy just up the road from me in Essex.

the body kit is not really a one off either, it's from prima racing

F2 front and rear bumper but the ebay one looks to have a slightly modded f2 front bumper, spoiler is from prima racing too.

Fair play to him, the workmanship looks good but what I'm planning to do will augment what's already good about the car's looks.

I ain't planning to go too OTT with the bodywork and as for the engine conversion well.....that's up in the air at the minute.

Funnily enough though I have got my eye on something at the minute, just waiting to sort out the fundage and maybe by this time next week I'll have a new motor!

But don't hold your breath - I ain't!

Standard PH1 R19 16v front bumper would look much better.

Bit of a cheeky one tho, reg'd as a 1.4 but is actually a 1.8 !

He says its down to the owner to declare the change to DVLA? Well he's the fucking owner at the moment.(DICK!) Rolling Eyes

It's people like him that force our insurance premiums up each year when they have a crash and find out there not covered by their insurance!

PEOPLE LIKE HIM SHOULD BE FUCKING SHOT!!!!!!!! Evil or Very Mad

ferk off.

I have had a few cars where the engine capacity has gone from 1l up to 3.5 but never said anything to anyone about it.

No point in being up tight about it.

Its like people that say I have a 2 litre, well I have a 980cc with 248 bhp WHOPPEEWOO!

yuo don;t get a payout. The insurance is void on the car but whatever you hit etc is still covered.

So does that mean They'd be driving without valid insurance or not Chris?

Forum Moderator Joined: 02 Mar 2004 Posts: 19978

invalid but you have 3rd party cover

this is how i have been led to belive it.

seen a few cases where its been brought up in the courts

Site Subscriber Joined: 13 Oct 2004 Posts: 4722

wont the driver with the uprated motor still get convicted?

or something or another

Site Subscriber Joined: 11 Feb 2005 Posts: 2929

My interpritation is that if your insurance is invalid then you are in effect driving without any. Thus you can be charged with driving without valid insurance.

Happens to my guys all the time.

However I'm not a lawer nor a police man so I could be wrong.

might be different under scots law but they are in effect insured only 3rd party even though paying a fully comp policy due to incorrect vehicle details.

Would be good if that was the case. Seems a lot more sensable then letting insurance companies screw the 3rd party.

can you possibly feck the fully comp and tft and just get the car insured for 3rd party and fire than ???????

i am trying to find a wway out of fitting an alarm you see Wink

I don't think thats an option mate.

have you got an alarm to fit?

if not I've got a spare Cat 2 Toad imobiliser if you need it?

or are you just trying to find a way out of having to fit anything?
