Bit of an impulse buy realy but what the heck. Dan16v gave me a ring asking if i knew any one that wanted his engine, a few hours later i had put a deposit down! Checked out the insurance today and got a quote for 800 fully comp, which aint bad considering im guna be 18 with one year no claims.

Fair enough! Bargain!

Im 18 and paying ?454 tpft with 0 NCB, 0 claims, 0 points and ?0 excess and on step dads insurance with CIS!

1.2 Engine No mods declared!

So I'm thinking that i am changing to my own insurance fully comp and with mods! Then getting an Sri engine!

on the subject of insurance, i got a nova 1.4i and paying 750 fully comp with LV, was wondering if i put on a cat 1 alarm, is it likely to go down much ?

Yeah i know wot you mean, to be honest im a bit worried myself about having all that power under my right foot! I was looking at the radar scanners in halfords yesterday, you can get them for ?99 now, maybe a worth a while investment! can you spray the engine cover in normal spray paint or do you have to have a heat profe paint? i m guna spray it the same colour as the car.

Alrite cheers, is that the gut DT is working for? Might take it over there during the week then. I need to get the ball rolling on this conversion and have it in by july, no point hanging around! Has the engine had a cambelt change?
