  1. That sounds just too coincidental surely. 1. You'd have to randomly be close enough to notice someone's tax disc and it being out of date. Uncommon!

    2. There was an in date tax disc showing. Can't believe point 1 let alone seeing the windscreen and not noticing the tax disc or it being in date.

    Undoubtedly dodgy.

    Tell the police, and play out like your interested to sell to get him!

  2. I really feel for you mate, shitty thing to happen. I know it's cliché but try and tell yourself it could've been worse.

    Politely mention to a few neighbours. Many people these days push things to back of their minds unless prodded. No harm and then at least you know you've tried. Even mention at the end, ok well thought you might appreciate knowing to perhaps park differently, tighter, put winger mirrors in etc.

  3. That was amusingly written, I enjoyed that. I've read occurences of this before so the popo should be aware there's a slim chance the database isn't up to date, cover themselves from egg on the face and enquire when it was renewed etc.

    I've had some experiences with the police with the odd light being blown or running quite high contrasted amber. They've been pretty decent but you still think to yourself what if something isn't in order.

  4. This has happened to me twice and I haven't bothered to claim yet.

    I have reported pot holes on a good website which passes the info on, and guides on claims. www.potholes.co.uk

    That site did at least, suggest they often are a bit awkward and it takes awhile.

    Would receipts/quotes for your wheel to buy new, or repair not be required as well? Would certainly want to maximise it.

  5. It's an alloy refurb place balancing included in the price (immediately next door to a tyre fitter). The tyres are Goodride and didn't seem in too bad nick. He says one alloy they repaired a buckle, the other they've just corrected with weights. But I'm talking like 5-6 small silver weights on both wheels - looks excessive compared to what I've ever had on a wheel before.

  6. There's loads of T-sport wheels for sale lately, and it's been a bit of a learning curve for me. I bought a set for £180 that were seemingly refurbed. However the inside of the alloys was corroding, so I simply had to refurb all 4 at £260 (nice graphite colour now).

    Given some GT wheels have just been sold for £370, if they don't need refurbing with the odd buckle - then I'm left feeling slightly annoyed. Partially because the seller didn't really reveal the inner corrosion and that I've spent over £370.

    Certainly seems the deal maker or breaker is wheher you need a refurb or not. I've gotten 2 of my refurbed wheels on so far (collecting last 2 tomorrow). The tyres are fairly new ish, but they've still put loads of balancing weights on!

  7. I don't seem to have much luck with rear bumpers. I got minor damage to the oem which is £120 if I wanted it repaired. Then upgraded to a Fensport one. Whilst very sporty and low, a clip has come off it. It's slightly hanging and I don't want to lower with it anyway.

    So...there's an ideal oem one for sale collection only. Could any one do me a massive favour and collect. I will arrange the collection, pay for that and any costs, and be greatly appreciative of having helped a fellow member out. :-)
