Hi folks. Finally got a replacement zed! Picked it up on Saturday morning. First chance I've had post, been too busy tinkering and driving. She's really polished up nice. She's a '90 Import NA Manual in metalic black with leather.

 

This may be useful to some of you, my insurance was with Norwich Union Direct. I found them to be very quick with inspection, negotiation and payout. Agreed a sum that has allowed me to buy a car that I think may turn out to be better than my first one :D although it took some shopping around!! Hope I'm still smiling come renewal time.

 

Feels good to be back. Can't grin wide enough! Think its time to dig out a cheque for 20 quid :rolleyes:

 

Oh yes, hello to the other two black zeds I've seen in Whitley Bay this weekend if you're out there.

Excellent news.

 

Just out of interest what sort of quote did you get from them ?

Hasn't anyone ever told you its rude to speak with your mouth full? :p

quote for premium was £650 - not the best I know, but used to be really bad for car crime around here. Used to pay about the same for my 1.8 scirocco!

 

as for replacement value, they were looking at stuff on the autotrader website - the same stuff I had printed out in front of me. They started low, ~£1600. Once I had convinced them that my car had a working autobox and healthy engine (mentioning that I had a nissan consult report helped) we settled on 3700. exactly what I paid for my new one.

another NA in the group, good man, quality choice :D

 

Hope you enjoy her.
