Car insurance probe
fortunatly now ive turned 25 the zed is much much cheaper, but i was paying 2k a year for a 1.6 suzuki when i first passed absolute madness! and im still being quoted 500 odd quid for a 1.1 fiesta sdp only with 4 years no claims.

Car insurance probe
i may cause a drop for 6 months butr nothing long lasting or worth its weight. same as all this black box and camera buisness within afew years they will be the normal prices much the same as tehy are now and those without will pay a premium for not having it rather than those who having making a saving. sorry to be a cinic but car insurance esp for the young is a simple riff off, use it you wont get it again and dont have it you will not get it again so your forced to pay out huge sums for a car tahts worth squat only to be legal, and then if something happens you still end up pulling moneyu out your pocket from massive excesses etc

Whats the next step for my Zed?
bolting bigger tubs on a 20 year old block is probally going to prove false ecconomy. so you would ideally be looking at a rebuild before pushing through the 450 barrier etc. you may well get a good gain with biogger injectors and intercoolers allowing you to run higher boost safely without risk of det. however you are going to be running damn close to the usefull part of the turbo, ie it will be running outta puff. you could hit 400 on bigger injectotrs etc 370 odd would be the limit without doing further upgrades to the supporting system.

Vauxhall Astravan trouble
alot of vauxhals have maf issues, simply unplugging it and resetting the ecu, will often point it out at fault. is it an early one? i know the early ones had an issue with diesel being sucked up via capiliary action into the ecu. causing them to drive like a bag of crap, until they die on you. both of my mates that had them had this happen and its why i didnt buy one, amogst other personal reasons.

how to mod the ac fan to a cooling fan?
air con is dead rich, just blows hot air at you no matter what settings you input. it also does this on econ. i think the motorised valve that closes down to control the water tempreture has had it, however its behin dthe dash and i cant be arsed to go fishing for it just right now.
