Miggs Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 HAHA RESULT, just got a call back from the insurance and they are now coming round to my way of thinking, his exact words were, "i have done some more research since we last spoke and to be fair they are more in the top end of the price range we discussed, with that in mind if you can get some cars that qualify the criteria of your current vehicle we will be happy once reviewed to make a payment to you for that value" well i'm off to trawl the websites looking for a new car :D :D :D :D :D 1
Miggs Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 green leather? yeh seen that, i'm determined to get a saloon, gonna see just what i get first and then see whats about, is that white one yours?
Miggs Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Well, to go with the somewhat good news I had today I'm now back to the bad luck I attract, took the kids to school this morning in the subie as per, stopped off at the bank to get some cash for the plumber coming round, comes back and nipped to euro car parts to order some bits for the wife's car, came home all good, goes to the car at 2.40 and just as it's about to fire it gives a tiny pop and goes to just the starter cranking, a few attempts and nothing just constant cranking, runs across to the neighbour to borrow their car, gets kids, comes home, cranks subie and a little stutter like it's gonna fire then back to just cranking, buggered if I know what it is and even more buggered if I'm gonna mess about in the torrential downpour Sent from my Nexus 7
Jay762 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 As you were rear ended check the petrol pump is working - the connection may have been jarred loose?
savage bulldogs Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Glad to hear you're making better progress with the insurance company fella :-) Not so glad to her about the scooby misbehaving :-( Any joy with finding a suitable replacement ? If not I'd chuck a wanted post up on a few forums ,as you can check some of it's history by doing a search of the previous posts the seller has made ;-)
quit Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 green leather? yeh seen that, i'm determined to get a saloon, gonna see just what i get first and then see whats about, is that white one yours? No just saw it mate while searching for parts My old white one there is pictures up on here
Miggs Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Jay, I wasn't rear ended it's just a scrape on the rear door and quarter, it happened boxing day and has been driving pretty much every day since so I don't think it's accident related just bad luck related lol Savage, I've got numerous cars saved into the laptop and on eBay but they are a wide spectrum in price, until I know exactly what I'm getting money wise and when I don't want to be messing sellers about if I'm not in a position to buy Matt, I've not looked in the pics section to be fair, I'll have a look when I get a minute Sent from my Nexus 7
Miggs Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Just went and had a nosey lol couldn't resist, is it still looking like the bottom pic? Sti roof spoiler, type r splitter and the Sti spats? Sent from my Nexus 7
Jay762 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 aahhh I see - dont know where I got that idea from then
Miggs Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 If your owt like me I skim across a lot of words when reading things and piece together the bits in the middle, you may have read, hit back boxing day for example, I did think fuel pump to be honest as it's that kind of not starting symptom, left a few mins and it will just catch like it's about to fire then just crank, as if there's a touch of fuel in there from being cranked if that makes sense, I have some bits to do to the wife's car tomorrow and weather permitting I'm gonna have another look at mine, gonna check obvious things like spark and fuel first then go from there, sods law I've just got a new insurance policy for 12 months and I may not be able to use it again lol
