your a very bitter chap arent you STIshrek? just let it lie chap, yes this is my car and im very proud of it, i think for the sake of scoobynet and the good name it has we shall just leave it at that.

cheers nezz10 for your comments,i do have the hole and need the bung! damm its loud?! HKS it is then!

Alberick

yup; let's leave it at that, unfortunately I receive email notifications for each reply on this topic.....

Still your car is awesome&&

StiShrek

not bitter just sceptical about what you claim

anyone with any common sense about insurance would smell a rat

filled out my details on the direct line website and made myself 21

came back saying unable to quote

used my age details and came back with 900 quid

so you only pay 100 pound more..yeh right

not bitter just incredibly sceptical about your wild claims

At the end of the day it's an awesome car, I know because I saw it yesterday. It really does stand out, and following Dave you notice all the jealous looks the car gets.
Re. the wheels, they look good in the flesh, and are a nice wheel, but 17s or 18s may look a little better - but the colour/style is spot on for the car. Depends whether it's gonna be used for proper driving or posing really. I am sure someone in the know would pay a good wack for those wheels, enabling Dave to get bigger ones if he so chooses, and maybe have a little bit extra to get that rear fog light sorted What a mess :lmao:

Cheers for the exhaust anyway Dave - Shell will now be giving me the VIP loyalty card, as opposed to the standard one I had before - have just been hammering it all day - I just love that exhaust

great thread dave, can't beat a bit of banter

so we've all agreed to disagree about the wheels onto the exhaust, just to throw another make into the ring, how about an Apex'i N1? they have TIG welding (don't know about HKS), the angled exit and they also have a bung if needed

'would any insurance company touch a 21 yr old with 3 points on a 300bhp jap import regardless of your postcode?'


No chance. LMAO 21 year old/3 points and pay a grand insurance on a Jap Import??? Think you live in Cloud cuckoo Land. Maybe daddy's car but not yours Chappy. Please explain Floppy chap as I'm so sceptical too.

It stand out because it has Rays Engineering wheels on it....but what do you know..?

Popeye P1

'It stand out because it has Rays Engineering wheels on it....but what do you know..?'

LMAO this thread gets better. I've seen better looking standard UK cars than that. e.g.Peccys. Those alloys do nothing for that car. Sry to offend but i always do. What external mods has it got? Not even a front lip spoiler.

I'm more bitter drinking a pint of Tetleys. LOL

Dave,

If you ever 'give in' to the urge to get bigger wheels, drop me a mail and I will make you a sensible offer on the wheels!

I think they look fantastic!

Do it Flops!!!

Popeye, Shrek what cars do you drive?

A P1 and STI ? as your name suggests or another make?

Alberick

Is it a standard UK car then, i thought it is a Type R, meaning that it is not "standard" UK.

Of course there are better looking cars out there, but who else in the UK has (or even knows) those wheels....and not everybody lives in the little "Scoobysport only" world...

And, err, no you didn't offend at all....at least not me.

floppy dave, fancy a set of 17' gold S'leggeras against your wheels? :-))

Popeye P1

'i pay a grand and im 21 with 3 points lol ! me win next question? thats through direct line, very good ! must live in the right area eh?'

We're waiting Flops. I've tried too and they aren't even quoting me for a type R(posh area too). Did you're mama tell u never to tell porkies.

LOL at a literal translation. Ok it should have been your(smart ***) Anyway I'll explain

Mama=mum
porkies=lies

DO U UNDERSTAND NOW? LOL

StiShrek

'no bitter individuals posting on this thread eh'

I cant believe that everyone else swallows that he pays a grand at 21 for a type r.

plenty of stupid individuals posting on this thread if you believe that!!

even my girlfriend said 'no chance!'

why lie??

floppy dave

Top car! glad that you are happy with the wheels, I think they look good.
As for the other 2 who have nothing better to do than have a go at other peoples cars, you really do need to get out more.
I was under the impression that this forum was for like minded people to share experiences and expertise about one of the best cars that money can buy.
Floppy Dave had the ***** to put up pics of his car and ask for advice from people in the know, give him a break!!

I am fairly new on this site, and as a Scooby owner I was looking forward to discussions with fellow owners. However the tone of some of the contributions to this thread is not pleasant.

Can we please get back to sharing the thrill and pride of ownership in our cars and stop the bickering?

I vote that this thread be closed.

StiShrek

perhaps you own the car but you dont have insurance?

from the trouble i had getting insured on my version 5 i know for a fact that at 21 (with 3 points and not even a full no cliams bonus which i have) they would either deny you a policy or charge you a ridiculous amount

just dont like being taken for a fool

StiShrek

and pete (whoever you are????) this is not getting unpleasant...just a debate

Popeye P1

Floppy Dave can u explain please? OK its you're car but there's no way u get insured for a grand. LMAO

'exactly, i know 2 people that post on this site who have both seen this car, so what exactly do i have to achieve? id like to know, any sujjestions?'

All we'd like to know is how u get insured for a grand at 21 on an import? Please explain not dodge the question?

Floppy dave, for ****'s sake, can you send STIShriek and popeye a copy of your insurance contract so that they FINALLY SHUT UP...

or

continue this debate in the Insurance forum, the mods will surely be happy to see a post in there....

maybe he's 3rd party F&T like me, costs me around 300 quid a year, just don't crash it!

'maybe he's 3rd party F&T like me, costs me around 300 quid a year, just don't crash it!'

They won't insure a car 3rd party fire and theft over a certain value.

Alberick

That is all sooooo interesting.....

Hey magnet, didn't you notice that the car is not the topic anymore...we're talking about floppy dave and his insurance issues
