Car had check over and the results are.....
well apart from the odd coil here and there needing replaced, brake calipers, Hicas removed, Oil cooler rad fins bent, sump dented (previous owner grounded possibly), Centre propshaft doughnt broken ? (sussed the vibration from gear box). nothing sort of big big priced until........(advised) both rear inner sill's corroded. Big oil leak (possible rear main oil seal). now the guy has said the rear oil seal is approx 16hours labour and also said he reckons the sills been done once already so its pointless doing it again. I'm so stuck right at this moment what ya think? :headvswal

exedy paddle clutch on ebay.... what we saying, deal or no deal?
well it will be legit going thru paypal also they seem to use an ok delivery service but may well be best for signed delivery to cover your ass, but if it goes tits up then paypal cover it. You could possibly pick it up as they are in S. East london. They also got a good rating to at 99.5% I would trust it although I can understand the worry of it being a con lol.

A few problems :-S
cruise is normally straight forward to figure out so must be somethin wrong with yours. Yeah if anything knocks dont drive you will learn that one on any car. And the coil packs you can pick up at a fairly decent price so when it needs it do it or its gonna cost way more in the long run.

felt the Z for the first time properly.
Ok took the Z out for a lil cruise alot further than I did before when it decided to cough and splutter, but this time i had the heater on and I had no problems at all it went like a mofo and I never smiled so much before lol, but when heater is left off it splutters like made and starts clicking almost like tappet sounds. Has anyone had a similar problem to this? Sorry for similarity of previous post im testing things :hyper:

F.A.O. j1mmytt
yeah I thought she might have been due to the high0risk security alert with it being a bank office. Shes is defo pulling a fast one then, just mention that to the insurers and see what they say. They should be able to deal with it swiftly especially if you got hold of that witness also.

ok seems ok now, took connectors off and cleaned them, checked plugs and then noticed the air compressor belt gone lol. found out what the droning was also and it appears to be the propshaft so a nice amount of money to go but got the number of a guy who recons it all so gonna give him a try. :D

ok it quotes: "Private If you buy privately, you won't be protected legally if the car doesn't come up to scratch. It's up to you to ask the right questions and have the car thoroughly inspected before you buy." but on the other hand it also states: The only legal terms that cover a private sale contract are: * the seller must have the right to sell the car * the vehicle should not be misrepresented * it should match its description: o for example, if the ad states that there is a valid MOT, there should be a valid MOT. The part I higlighted is because he said it was still in Km's but I find out it was changed over in 2000 to miles once I get home and check through all the papers again. I am sure this was not there the time I viewed it over.

burning tapping droning.
Ok as mentioned before the gearbox drone is the same as it was and it deffinately the auto-box. Just had to use it to goto Citizens Advice Bureau (which was not open) to see what actions i can take against this man who sold me the car. Personally I dont think its a real MOT paper it has now as was only issued like 500miles ago and so much is appearing wrong now..... Well just about got it back home sounds like its only firing on 4-5 cylinder, bick lack of power and what can only be explained as an old old sierra racket coming from under the hood. Also when I got out I opened the bonnet and there is a burning smell coming through the vents and when I look at the side of the Turbo it looks like its about to crack and fall off.... Whos good with law as I cannot get to cab before they Shut :headvswal
