Did you think they were all sitting in the campfield still, covered in snow with nothing but the car as shelter waiting for the winner to go and collect the car?
Yh obviously mate

Dont put cheapo stuff in it, diesel oil needs to be good quality with good cleaning agents

I refurbed the head on my C20XE engine, along with cleaning the tappets.
I found a Vauxhall receipt with my XE engine I bough and I think it was £200 for parts and £400 for lab.

A little while ago my mate drove into the back of me, after contacting his insurance (Liverpool Victoria) they advised me to TAKE PICTURES if the damage and send the pics to them. They rang me back immediatley saying they quoted it was Total Loss damage and that they can give me £3300 for it or I can buy the car for £500 from them (which I did). The next couple of days I had the check,which I banked.
THANK YOU LV! You were 100 times better than my previous insurers ( I dont know wether there is a NO name and shame policy but: QUINN DIRECT, E CAR INSURANCE and ENDSLEIGH DIRECT)
Also if it was a Total loss surely somebody should have inspected it (it could have been ANY car I took pictures of)and I should have sent my log book off for it to be recorded?
Cheers, Tom

I make number plates and registered to dvla; to sell to the public they needs proof of ownership and ID. The BS AU mark MUST be show in the bottom right corner and the only the supplying outlet who made them in the bottom with postcode. New charles wright ( font 'inventer') is ONLY allowed (hi line, 3d and carbon)This is a set standard so they are visible to human eye AND automatic number plate recognition camera's. I.e Specs cameras.(Pre 01/01/1973 cars are differant). If there is any confusion VOSA will have the final say not the police if it is roadworthy or not. I have never seen a pressed plate with a BS AU number on it; although it might have this mark, it does not nessesarily mean it is roadworthy, it just mean it was made under british standards.
The law was a MAXIMUM of £30 fine per plate but changed recently to MAXIMUM of £30 per plate and £1000 for something else and 3 POINTS PER PLATE. This is the same for displaying NO number plate.After sept 2001 the letter size decreased to height of 79mm width from 57mm to 50mm (to accomadate Euro symbol (excepct I and 1)11mm between characters and 33mm between groups.
There is nothing about maximum size of a plate ( std size is 520 = 111mm) If you buy a plate online and you ask them is it legal for uk road use they will almost always say no, they're being sold as a show plate etc.
It is not comfusing, your plates dont meet the requirements they are not road legal.
