You raise a good point! 140 you say ... I didn't know they went that fast. I'm suddenly tempted to sort this out and try that. On my private road, of course Probably a query for the search function, but I assume insurance needs to know if that limiter disappears? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miko_supra Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 insurance never asked about the limiter on mine. it's supposed to be done with the speedo conversion. But for some reason only half the job is done on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Chips on the bonnet and one or two on the wings which I'm going to sort. Fitting a new skirt soon, the previous owner cracked it. Soon it will be perfect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2JG Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 1. two pin size dents on the bonnet, 2. driver side sideskirt cracked by previous owner, 3. passenger side sideskirt scraped by me in multi-storey car park. last time I was in one actually, 4. rear bumper is looking a bit dull and a few lines showing, needs a respray, 5. previous owner thought it would be a great idea to bond his mobile phone holder to the dashboard, can't get the fooking glue off!

Bobbeh Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Thorin said: Too many to list. Mechanically it's sound! Same here.. I have so many kerbings, stone chips, a few door dings and marks on the front bumper including a section where the paint has split and come away from it and problems with the driver door which looks to have had a repair job on it, done badly from previous work! Funny thing is tho, it still looks great when its clean and these things have to be pointed out to be noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
