Toni Gladding launches off the line Santa Pod 2005

[tonigmr2]

LOL, not sure. Engine builder will only commit to '300 hp and 300 torque easy'! That reminds me, another phone call to gee him up needed...

[Icsunonove]

'300 hp and 300 torque easy'!

Nonsense! If that's all it's going to produce I'll eat my hat.

That reminds me, another phone call to gee him up needed...

Give me his number, I'll give him a gee up with a boot up his backside!

I'm afraid I will have to take my name off the attendee's list, as the new owner will be picking the car up on saturday

Don't suppose there is anyone near me who has room for a passenger ?

So close yet so far away...

Fecking insurance company have now told me they won't insure a car worth less than £15K, despite it being £10K 2 weeks ago.

Got to find a new company now.

Oh Toni - I can't believe your bad luck!
After all the work that has gone into the car and effort re: insurance and values etc.
This is a real shame, but there are 3 days left for a miracle.... [-o< [-o< [-o<

Good luck with insurance - keeping everything crossed for you

[tonigmr2]

I can get it insured no problem, the trouble is I want an agreed value scheme. That's what is giving me a headache!

Ahh... i see
a cheeky plan would be to get it insured anyway with whatever company, and you always get 14 days or something to cancel policy. soooo....do that, cancel policy after pod, and then get the insurance policy you are really after. then you have that 'just in case' insurance in place for pod.

ps: have you tried Adrian Flux - they do highly modifed and agreed values. (bet you have already)

[tonigmr2]

...except if perchance I crashed on way to or from Pod I'd get book value of a few hundred quid, so I don't think so!!!!!

I've contacted several insurance companies - I am trying to get all my cars insured together as a 'collection' - let's see eh?!

[fazza]

Anyone else from the North West driving down on the Sunday morning

[tonigmr2]

Is that Fazza ex-stripey NA MK2??

Turbo eh?!

[Goto10]

I assume we can just randomly show up to spectate?
I'm meant to be swapping gearboxes in my Mk1 this Sunday but if weather is against me I'll postpone, my tubby could do with a good 100 mile (each way) run for its final stages of running in. (Spectating only obviously!)

Is that Fazza ex-stripey NA MK2??

Can't be, I don't see a page full of mods relating to extra lights and things that flash

Yes it is me and yes I've now got a turbo as well as the stripe.
