I'm sorry but I think that sort of behaviour is absolutely disgusting. Any member found partaking in such disingenuous and deceitful activities ought to be banned from the forum.

The only person I would trust with my cars in the London area is Darren over at Magnum Performance in Enfield.

That's awesome. Is it your daily? I didn't realise these had air suspension, for some reason, I always thought that generation ran on standard suspension, hence the question about the ride quality... interesting...

Well, whatever you're doing seems to be working; it looks fabulous! How's the ride?

That is lovely. The paintwork looks immaculate, I am slightly jealous...

You're absolutely right, I was thinking about its value if it were to be sold privately.

No problem bud

I may have one coming up for sale soon.

Erm... I've never advertised or sold brake calipers on here, or anywhere else for that matter... you must have me confused with someone else buddy.

Let it go, let all the parts you don't need go...

As it's unmolested, it'll be worth a little more than a modified one I would think...

I'd probably go for the 7200dab, personally. Nice motor btw.

Numb joke; Scooter is a parts hoarder!

I would personally advertise the items on the forum first and consider taking reasonable offers from members, then advertise any unsold items on Ebay after a couple of weeks...

Same order; 1- please note the break in the middle of the sentence by the use of the word "or". These small, but fundamental, details are absolutely key in defending, or indeed bringing about a successful claim, sadly, these small details are more than often missed, to the elation of the other party! 2- bit early for dinner...

Good luck!

In the same order; 1- I have quoted the wording exactly as it appears on the government website. If you have "checked" elsewhere and you are happy to take the risk based on this unverified source, then that is entirely up to you. 2- this is clearly a very subjective position as not everyone will agree with your assessment. In fact, I find the lack of recalls in the aftermarket sector more worrying than the abundance of it with the manufacturers. As for your quality control argument, this is also an area the aftermarket industry falls short whereas manufacturers will likely have many layers of QC. In any event, you appear to be happy to take the risk and that is, again, entirely your call.

In the same order; 1- you will note that the limitation of "public roads" does not apply to the first part of that excerpt. I.e. "You MUST NOT leave a parked vehicle unattended with the engine running(...)" Turbo timers and any similar devices are also illegal to use whilst the car is left unattended. 2- the key distinction here is, when you drive a car, you are likely relying on the R&D and workmanship of the car's manufacturer, whilst choosing to rely on an aftermarket component doesn't come with the same level of assurance.

Indeed.

And everything I aspire to be...

In the same order; 1- your insurer/broker may not have voided your policy as the advisor on the other end of the phone is unlikely to be an underwriter and may not understand that unattended stationary idling is an offence under section 42 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 ("the Act"). The Act enforces rule 123 of the Highway Code, which states "You MUST NOT leave a parked vehicle unattended with the engine running or leave a vehicle engine running unnecessarily while that vehicle is stationary on a public road." It is also usually an implied or explicit term of any motor insurance policy that the insured party must observe and comply with all the applicable laws and regulations of their particular jurisdiction, breaching this term will almost always result in a voided policy. 2- relying or choosing to rely on the integrity of a few electrical components is entirely your prerogative; however, it is not something I would personally recommend, especially considering the severely adverse consequences a simple malfunction could cause.

The 7200dab unit you are contemplating is a truly fabulous bit of kit, you will really struggle to get any better than it for under £1000... does it need to be a single DIN unit? There are some really good deals to be had on some of the high-end double DIN units at the moment.

The Ebay sub £100 units are Chinese imitations, most likely.
