[Southie]

Get a grip Edd, you've a cracking Nova that most on would love to own.
is it because you've wedding plans that are putting you on a downer???? Don't fret life's too bloody short ;)

Edit: buy your future wife an Easter egg and then spend on parts lol

[Edd]

How time flies, my wife says I never listen lol

Get the house how you want it to maybe sell on if your not happy, at the end of the day your Novas pretty much complete and you could always store it for a year... What's the rush in spending more money on it bearing in mind you don't often take it to shows, that ain't a dig mate btw.

[Edd]

I would like to take it to shows tbh, BUT our wedding anniversary is the 13th July, Billing weekend lol they need to change the date!

Plus my shift pattern don't help with going to shows, always seem to be working

There is still much to improve on with the Sport tho imo

That's what I have been doing today so feel your pain.

Also blew up the controller on my Uno wiper motor in the process which momentarily pissed me off.

[Plug]

well luckily ive not damaged anything yet! lol Got to put some more plugs on tomorrow mind,suprising how much you can gut out of a loom,

[Novasport]

Tyres back on the repainted three spokes but the tyre bead is leaking on one of them :(

[bazzap8389]

The lack of progress on my car over the past 6 weeks or so is starting to really piss me off.

[mowgli]

having a fun family easter do, with various relatives round... the phone goes.... a fairly close relative of the wife has died suddenly.
that really put a dampener on the whole thing.

[mk1nova_rich]

Was one horse off winning just over 3 grand :mad::(

[mowgli]

so in other words, you lost...

today, my wpyot was a run in with a cop. he decided I was using my phone, when I wasn't, and really didn't like me being uncooperative over it.. he was a right ar$e and was being aggressive, so I thought, feck it... 15 mins later, I drove off having been repeatedly threatened with being put in front of a judge but as the cop had nothing more than having seen me scratching my left ear, he wasted 2 people's time.

[mk1nova_rich]

Were you in the Nova?

And yes I lost but as close as you can get to winning lol

[Maddukeman]

U do get them ! Same thing over seatbelt in a e36 bmw, had a black jumper on, I could beryl see my belt, he said I was seen 1/2 mile away by another cop, so was 2 cops against me he said !, I pay £30 or £90 in court !

Can only pray he needs my for something one day :bullsht:

[Southie]

Today what's pisssed me off is this site...



... far too many decent builds and projects that make me feel guilty of getting rid of mine... 3 years ago :(

[bazzap8389]

^ Not thought about getting another one mate?

[mowgli]

Were you in the Nova?

And yes I lost but as close as you can get to winning lol

nova is sorn.....

[tommy8252]

Paid for a pair of digidashes 2 weeks ago for a bargain price of £60 posted, paid immediately via paypal. Not turned up in the post so pm'ed the seller (not from this forum) only to get an immediate refund.

I am not a payday loan company. Why allow my money to sit in your account for 2 weeks and only refund me when I chase you up?

I don't want excuses and apologies I want my cheap ass parts lol

[Jeff16v]

some of you may know I work in a hospital, got a text over the weekend to say a family friend had fallen down the stairs and was in intensive care over the bank holiday. i couldn't find out much as the family asked the ward not to give out any details.

Today i popped in to see him and they have performed a craniotomy on him and completely removed the left hand side of his skull. apparently he fractured his skull in three places and the subsequent brain swelling would have killed him without removing the side of of head. he was awake but his eyes weren't tracking together and I don't think he knew who i was.

the poor bugger lost his 9 year old daughter many years ago due to a terminal illness and both his sons have downs syndrome. his wife passed away last week and he fell two days before the funeral.

i went to visit him on behalf of my wives family and after briefing them of his condition, they didn't seem keen on visiting him due to the state he is in.

what the poor sod needs now is friends to support him and i hope they suck it up and go visit.

[bazzap8389]

^ Thats very sad. Fingers crossed he pulls through

[dgbnova#1]

Good god that's horrible hope he is fine in the end

[mowgli]

i hope he didn't plan to 'fall'. that man has been thru the mill. i also hope he gets thru it

thank you.


Good god that's horrible hope he is fine in the end
got to be the unluckiest person i've ever met.


i hope he didn't plan to 'fall'. that man has been thru the mill. i also hope he gets thru it
It hadn't occurred to me that he had done it on purpose. Honestly I'd understand if he had as it hasn't got a lot going for him. Been broke all his life. Spent all his money making sure his daughter had a real nice life before she passed away. she was a lovely little girl and never complained. He wouldn't look me in the eye when I went to see him and he is really down in the dumps.

He hasn't told anyone how it happened.


Thats mans had a hard time jeff you give him all he needs to get through this massive respect

cheers Fella.

well when the tanks empty it reads half, and when i put in 3 jerry cans i had a full tank lol,

Clocks are shagged i believe all i can think of tbh i should of just put fuel in on the way up there but it said half a tank so thought i'd be alright lol

Crap. This puts misfortune into perspective. No need to cry over a knackered engine or a dent in your rear quarter when you consider misery of this magnitude. Hope the poor sod gets well and receives all the help possible.

This weekend I found out the head gasket on my recently purchased VW Lupo is on its way out. As is the oil pump drive chain. Sounds like an engine rebuild is on the cards. So much for buying a seventh (!) hand car.

[jonn]

my piece of sh!t 1.8 astra coupe, it has been off the road for the last 5 months spent around 1000 on it trying to find out what is wrong with it. ecu, sensors. i bought a full engine loom and another ecu kit today for 100 and guess what the loom is missing 1 stupid plug so no use. between buying parts, loosing money from the few months road tax it had and buying another car and taxing that. the piece of **** has cost me about 2k

tempted to burn the lot and weigh it in for scrap and buy a nice bicycle!

[nova_niek]

I had to deal with an unbelievable amount of bureaucracy just to get a bloody picture of me in my car. Stoopid council workers don't know who does what and love to forward phonecalls to the point where I nearly exploded. Imbeciles.

I suppose the 6 deaths & 1 bloke with brain damage had something to do with it though......

What are they for niek

These plates are for a group of VW Lupo 3L enthousiasts.

[millworm]

Some genital drove into my car at a set of traffic lights damaging my rear wing and causing me to spill coffee all over my downstairs area. Then had the cheek to fly off down a one way so I couldn't follow him. Only then for the woman behind me that witnessed it all to start beeping at me to get out the way. WTF like the bloke just hit me she could have gone around. I didn't even get the plate, most of it buffed out but it pushed the wing in slightly so my wheels keep fowling on the inner lip even though they're rolled. Pissed isn't even the word. Rant over.

[novadave24]

did it happen to your nova ?

That's a ****£? of a thing to do the shi? House

you should go to the police and see if there is any cctv around were it happened mate that might help if there is .

[millworm]

I'm going too, just don't want her written off

[novadave24]

if they can find out who it is you could just say to the guy give me what it cost to get it fixed I done it one time when I got bumped

[dgbnova#1]

If it's not that bad I would not bother if you alert police and not inform insurance you run the risk later of a non disclosed accident could be problem later
if you notify them your premium will go up also just from telling them it's happened

Pain in the ****!

[Novasport]

Taking ages pissing about with replacing an extremely noisey speedo cable on the SR. It was a new speedo cable but it fell apart when I removed it and I got plastered in grease where somebody has probably tried previously to shut it up. Found a used one to replace it but it had the top of the plastic speedo drive thread sheared off inside. Was a right **** to get it out! Other than wasting about 2 hours of my life on that it has been a pretty productive day.

[turbojolt]

Told my manager a month ago i needed this week off. 3 times to his face 4 times on the phone and by text message. He has still got me booked in to work tomorow and now he isnt answering the phone. Ffs

[dgbnova#1]

He's gona have a job with no one to do it then
Id just txt him and email there is a mistake as I booked this week off months ago and I'm just reminding you as you will need to find someone to take the jobs you have me booked in for ready for tomorrow

[Andy]

nova needs welding,rear rail and spring cup.
halfway through the season so its not gonna look pretty lol
Bring on the reshell at end of the season

[Andy]

More grassing woes lol
Today was an absolute washout,a complete mudbath which was eventually lost to the rain which never stopped.
Managed one race before being abandoned.
Drove home in no t shirt like a badman lol

I'd heard you had a mint Sport sat in the garage lol

[millworm]

Now just found out I can't make billing. Great.

[nova_niek]

Bought a newish daily some 3 months ago. Came with receipts saying it had a new turbo, waterpump and timing belt fitted recently. Had the car serviced due to various little niggles. Turned out the so-called overhauled turbo was toast, the waterpump was leaking and the timing belt had seen better days. Had to have that sorted, along with a list of other unexpected problems. Had to pay £££ to get everything sorted. Bugger.

[Benn]

Nova running like shi*e.

This utter dog**** Benefits Britain our lass is watching. What a ****ing state this country has become thanks to government after government totally screwing everything and just handing it on a plate to every **** from under every unturned stone on the planet :mad:

[Andy]

The problem lies in the fact that for many people in various situations,work simply doesnt pay.
But then ya get the "well at least iv got my pride" brigade.
Pride doesnt pay the fukking bills though.
Its a sad state of affairs if dole pays more than a 40hr week.
Benefits should be just enough to survive.
I was always told if i wanted the nice things in life i had to work
NO.If you want the nice things in life ya need to scratch on,get housing benefit and grow gear.

[mk1nova_rich]

Seeing it more and more...the people who dont work have everything and me and our lass are both eorking and just scraping by with no luxuries

People nowadays have no pride and no shame either - was out in works van earlier and saw a piss head laid in middle of road. **** should have been injected with something the ****ing waster

No end to it, its only gona get worse

Every government is a total ****up (labour, tory, lib dem etc....) how can they possibly think they are doing a good job of things?

[Andy]

They have lost touch with modern life.
They havent a clue about the real world.
Like i say people on pancrack driving nice cars going on holidays for a fortnight,sky tv
Smoking gear drinking every day?! How do they do it?!
We couldnt afford to(not that we would!) and we both work.

[mk1nova_rich]

Makes me sick mate, something drastic needs to happen urgently...sterilisation of all these cunts for a start lol

People think they are entitled to the same things as working people

[nova_niek]

Having to go to work again after an excellent weekend at Billing, followed by a nice day off. Then again, at least I have a job so I shouldn't complain. ;)

[mk1nova_rich]

I still have a job...for now lol just at a company which is like mutiny on the Bounty. People leaving left, right and centre, workforce motivation is zero and the gap between shop floor and management is ever increasing

[Southie]

Up the anti and work harder, if there's people leaving then try and impress them more by getting stuck in mate, it can only benefit you... May even earn a few more ... Eventually lol

[Shamish82]

Well f*@ked up another pair of trousers and shirt doing my job cause people now a days are dirty disgusting bits of SH&t. Animals live better. O and had to bomb the car about 4 times :mad:

Trust me there is no reward for working harder there, it goes unnoticed. Set of **** in management cant see the place falling down around them. They still have massive wages and company cars while us idiots are scraping a living keeping the place going for them.

Purchased a carbon-fibre spoiler from Colin smith (novarallyturns out it's way beyond fitting absolute rubbish both the excuse that it's not been tryed against the car the lack of reply to my emails and the fact I have wasted money on something that should never have been sold on in the state that it's in also tryed to contact the manufacturer about it not that it's his problem after so long just for advice got nothing there ether piss take

Some pics see what you think

[Alex J]

sticker flex and tape will hold that down lol

[Benn]

The finish looks terrible too. Shame would be very cool. Prob get it to fit tho...

[bazzap8389]

Nothing has been done to my car in months now, guy at the shop keeps saying "I'll be on it next week" and nothing happens. Proper sick of it now I just want my car finished.

[Andy]

exactly why I do everything myself.People just let you down.

[bazzap8389]

I would if I could Andy, I really don't have the knowledge at all for this 4x4 conversion

[Andy]

Maybe they dont hence the lack of progress?

[bazzap8389]

Nah he's done quite a few said the nova will be the easiest one he's done by the looks of it, just got lots of stuff on at the moment but sick of being told mine is next etc etc

[Southie]

The easiest jobs always get left till last in most jobs these days.

[dgbnova#1]

The finish looks terrible too. Shame would be very cool. Prob get it to fit tho...
Just a waste of money and the attitude stinks tbh very ****ing pissed off and I can attempt to make it fit but there will be no spoiler left by the time it's trimmed up even close and it's not like it will bend to suit

[dgbnova#1]

Nah he's done quite a few said the nova will be the easiest one he's done by the looks of it, just got lots of stuff on at the moment but sick of being told mine is next etc etc
Still nothing then

[Andy]

whose attitude stinks? the seller??

[dgbnova#1]

Yes bull**** he never tryed it out for size bitches about mm on things and builds his car in ounces so if he thinks I believe that crap then he thinks
1 I'm not gona be fobbed of with crap
2 accept he did not know
3 go away
he's wrong

[Southie]

he's wrong
Did you get pictures of this before buying it? Who made it in the first place btw??

[dgbnova#1]

Had a pic of it on the deck layed out it's impossible to see how it would fit and I had a feeling it was not the best finish but had enquired about the possibility of having that sorted so I had an idea it was

but never had a clue it needed 30 mm - nothing cutting out of it to make fit that's 75% of the spoiler on one side in the middle section
It was made at CM Comosites so I believe

[Southie]

It must have been a very very early product as his quality now is far far better than that tbh. Must have been a wet lay over the top than vaccumed as he does now.

[dgbnova#1]

It's old and was an overlay of an original spoiler so what you see is what's normally the back bit that's not the Problem I understand it's rough looking that can be sorted it's the fact it's been moulded around a spoiler not fitted to a boot so miles out

at the end of the day if it was wrong Colin should have gone back to Chris re it ages ago I got it last week and I got it off Colin not Chris so it's not his problem I would have liked some advice on it though if it could be re shaped somehow but nothing I'm assumed no

[Southie]

Thing is I suspect that spoiler is over 4 years old so the twill will be all over the place, it also looks to have twisted really badly. I suspect Colin bought it for a visual use though and not for anything else.
How much did you pay for it anyway? Probably cheaper to carbon wrap a SR spoiler for the same effect I reckon.

[dgbnova#1]

It's not an sr one it's irmscher 3 piece

it was £108

its somewhere over 12 months old Chris told me he was making it when I first met him used an original one to copy
its
been made twisted from the get go

[Southie]

It's older than that, got to be as I remember Colin sending him it. He made that when I had my old nova and I sold that over 3 years ago.

[Edd]

Full refund surely?

Looks a load of crap tbh

[dgbnova#1]

I've known Chris 12 months met him last year he's not the quickest at getting things done could have had it months but if it's 4years old 4 years !!!!! would you not be just wonder a little how your £160 one of carbon fibre spoiler for your bespoke car super light weight would you not look at it

[Southie]

I've known him far far longer mate, tbh it's not his concern now with it being a product he made ages ago. The condition of the product when he first made it should have been sent back by Colin if he at the time had an issue with it.

[dgbnova#1]

His last reply

Hi.


I never tried fitting it ‎on my car.


Best to speak to Chris Mallinon, as he was the one who made it.


Regards


Colin

I never once said it was I did ask his advice as to if I can do something about it but got no reply

As you see that was the only reply I got though

I did not purchase it to sit in the shelf in the garage and yes it should have gone back from Colin but instead he sold it to me now I have something I cannot use and in no way sell on

[dgbnova#1]

And. That means nothing though as all he's saying who made it.

Not sure what your getting at ?

At at the end of the day it's crap it was made wrong that's more than evident
it should have gone back straight away that's not my issue
i asked for a refund from Colin and return within 2 days of having it that is the only reply I have does that explain it better

[16xe_chris]

It was overlaid years ago and I have no knowledge of how it's been stored, kept etc.

i made this in my tiny garage and I've been in my unit over 2 years already!

It's down to Colin and yourself tbh and Chris really has nothing to do with it that's what I mean, that product was made a long time ago as I've said.

Hope you get something sorted though as this has naff all to do with me.

[dgbnova#1]

I have no problem with you over this Chris I never got it off you never said it was you who made it till I was asked my problem is it's now mine it's absolute crap and I wanted to return it days ago
I did send you the pics of it and asked advice you never replied but was not asking you for anything more than that I never got it of you and at the end of the day I wanted it for my car
As to dates it's not important I never raised that ether

Yes as I said above
you asked who made it did not mention chris till you did

[Southie]

I asked who made it to see who made it, obviously with you saying CMcomposites and me knowing about the original year it was made I thought I'd help out for you, I don't know Colin so can't help out at that end for you sadly.

[dgbnova#1]

Yes I knew it was old my problem is with the recent sale/purchase

[Iain]

Paypal dispute. Argue. Return. Refund. Smile.

[nova_niek]

Citroën BX predictably failed its MoT. Go to order parts, asked for pricing, got told "naah it's not too bad". Then when I collect the lot (rear disks and pads, a lower ball joint and a couple of rubber bits), it was about £100 more than anticipated. When I got home I discovered one of the rubbers was the wrong one. That from a bloody Citroën specialist! Oh and the effing ball joint refuses to come off, despite giving it hell.

This morning we had some torrential rainfall, the garage roof decided to start leaking like a proper bitch and the VW Lupo sunroof was leaking as well. Just bloody great. GRRRR.

*EDIT* the lower ball joint has come off, courtesy of a local 2CV specialist. He used a special socket (Sealey SX027) along with the mother of all air impact wrenches and hey presto - job done. He fitted the new lower ball joint, all FOC. This man has earned himself a new customer. :thumb:

Wtf thats ridiculous :wtf: its not like she is driving or operating heavy machinery that could result in serious or fatal injuries. I'm guessing they are covering their arses insurance-wise, but how badly does she actually suffer?

[mowgli]

Wtf thats ridiculous :wtf: its not like she is driving or operating heavy machinery that could result in serious or fatal injuries

doesn't it involve lifting large weights either on bars or on a machine?? having a fit whilst lifting something could be quite dangerous..

as for the £186, that is unspeakable.. write you your mp about it, or better still, go to a local paper

She probably has about 6 fits a year on average, so not as bad as some people, never be able to drive tho

The classes she does are yoga, some form of soft kick boxing and water aerobics, this is what is comes from they think she might drown, always goes to the gym with her sister tho and she knows the score, never been a problem for years mind

and yeah £186 is a full piss take

i mentioned the local rag but she wont want the bother of it all tbh

[mk1nova_rich]

Pretend to be Romanian or Slovakian...you will get the letter for nowt lol

Have they given a reason why its suddenly an issue?

[Edd]

someone she used to work with now works at the gym and happened to 'mention' it

wouldnt like to be her when the mrs bumps into her next lol

on the other hand things like this piss her right off as it hard enough having to live with the condtion every day as it is

Which should I look for then as I'm back to square 1 now lol or should I use the machined astra ones in my shed?

[Benn]

Who machined them? Do they know what they are doing? THe reason they break for is cause no one machined a radius in the bottom surface for the bearing to run in...

LFM did good ones iirc.
