Does that include reconning the inside of existing engine? What sort of stuff do I need? On my old Astra, turbo conversion meant new piston linings, pistons piston rings etc. is all this included?? What sort of power increases?? So many questions.....

I am currently with Norwich Union & its jus shy of £900 even @ 31yrs old, clean licence & 5years NCB! There's no justice man! Harsh fella, must be the postcode!! My bro moved into centre of Birmingham and his insurers slapped £300 on his premium straight away!! Barstards!! :twisted: :evil: ...

OK, not all the nutters have 'Site Admin', there are many others!!

Wrong again, it appears that even Rustboy Ammon doesn't have site admin, did he ever, or am I really cracking up

Possibly the only person I've ever heard of that buys a tubby for the winter

damn... that is defo very cheap but probably realistic at this time of the year.. sad to say... :cry: Does that mean they pick up in value in Spring?? Just wondering, coz I bought mine for £3000 last May, it's a 93-K, UK Spec T-Bar with 110000 on clock. Trouble is I want a tubby now, and having spe...

You can tell the nutters, they have 'Site Admin' under their name. Check 'Rustboy' Ammon!!

Would have to agree that N/A lacks the power in the dry. Number of times I've tried to turn 180 in a cool fashion and I've landed up heading straight on!!!!!
Tend to find I get loads of understeer, which really p1sses me off!! Must be a crap driver!

Have just insured with Norwich Union for £540 fully comp. Am 25 3yr NCB, live outside Birmingham and declared 3 points.

Could give them a go, they might quote you happy

Certainly cheaper than Tesco or Egg, but they weren't too bad either

Why not just get an MP3 headunit?? Can't honestly tell me that the i-pod can improve an already compressed format and make it sound better than it does from a CD. OK, the storage, but you can put pictures on CD, and much other stuff (maybe not full DVD's uncompressed), and if you keep 25 cd's in the...

Cheers for all the advice, will get it looked at ASAP.

Hi, That sounds about right, having taken it on it's journeyt, I am sure it's not the big ends. Cant get a recording as it's not overly loud. Guess I'll just have to live with it until I can be ar$ed to get under the thing, when it's warmer. Off the subject, but is the name Raistlin from a book by a...

Will try and get a recording at some point, I've got to take it on a 200 mile journey today, so I guess I'll find out if its gonna get worse. I've changed the oil twice times since I've had it (7 months and 8000 miles) though the level was a touch low when I checked it. Will bear all in mind and try...

Cheers JJ, Are you sure this is it though? I can rev the engine high when out of gear and it still sounds sweet, sounds more like some kind of vibration against the bulkhead btwn engine and cockpit. I have linked it to the gear linkage rubbing somewhere, but can't see where. Every so often I can't g...

I appear to have developed a knocking noise from the engine bay. If I had a normal car, I would say it sounds like the exhaust rattling on the rear axle, but it isn't. Anyone got any ideas? I have looked underneath, but can't see anything out of place. It's particularly bad when I am turning the eng...

Aye, it's really not that hard, unless some bright spark has glued the side lens' on
