  1. Yeah I never got around to fitting them. I have the door cards / glass / window regulators / central locking mechanism / Denso door & window control module. I think that's everything you need. Send me a PM and we'll discuss a price ok. Cheers Chris
  2. I know it isn't as good looking as some of the other manufacturers but i was never one for style over substance. Its got a massive spec for the £8k price tag Alloys, air con, remote central locking, electric windows front and rear, electric mirrors, front fogs, ABS, adjustable height drivers seat, adjustable steering wheel, 6 air bags, 6 speakers, mp3 CD player with aux-in, 5 doors, plenty of storage, a decent boot, a 5 year warranty, £35/yr tax. I've driven one and it's a great little car.
  3. No sorry mate, they went ages ago
  4. I'm afraid my starlet is going off to the big scrapheap in the sky I've been seduced by teh government scrappage scheme and pick one of these up in 3 weeks. I'll miss my super Starlet but it's just too good an opportunity to miss.
  5. Jacked it up at my Dad's and found the problem immediately. I must have been pretty central on what I hit as all front suspension is fine. It has taken a chunk off the gearbox but just a fin thankfully (1/4" to the right and I'd have been screwed). It has scraped the cat (but still ok) and dented the middle section. It scraped the underside of my 'half-full' petrol tank (if it had gone through, metal on metal, sparks plus petrol, doesn't bear thinking about ). So far, not so bad. And finally... The back axle/anti-roll bar/wheel hub assembly was a lovely banana shape The back wheels we
  6. Driving to a party last night in the dark and the rain and I drove over something that went BUMP...Scraaaaaape underneath the car. It now feels like I'm driving on a skidpan and I'm constantly having to correct the steering to stay straight. Also my passenger seat no longer slides violently forward when I lift the lever, it's gone stiff. I must have really messed something up underneath for it to affect the seat rail alignment in the car right? I now have to find a garage on the Sunday before christmas that can have a look and tell me what I've done and then try to get it fixed for christ
  7. I made sure i got his...so he can do my service again next time How do you know, are you watching him? It certainly did mate
  8. Went to pick up my car after its service today and it took me half an hour to get out of there. The mechanic insisted on putting the car back up on the lift to show me all the things underneath that he can't believe are so clean :angry: I'm not normally smiling 2 minutes after parting with cash but I was this time. He just kept going, "Look at this, it's not even got any rust on it!" and "These normally have splits in them!" and "You can still see the sticker on that!" and "That still looks brand new and they normally rust for fun!" I suppose it's to be expected on a car that's done less t
  9. you need police bikes against something like that, the only thing that could match (and exceed) the acceration of the car. At least until they could get a chopper in on the action, you cant outrun them fookers ha ha
  10. You are a star mate, thanks for those, might be a while now before I get it all sorted but I can drill the door and have the wiring in place for when i source the glass. Muchos Gracias Amigo Monkey
  11. I will have to drill a hole in the door and car for the wiring to pass through as I convert my Sportif to Central locking and electric windows from the SR. I would like to get an idea where the wiring exits the door at the hinge and travels across inside the rubber gaitor to the car. If someone could take me some piccies, I would really appreciate it Cheers Chris
  12. Sorry I snaffled the crystals from Idrees, it does help only being a 30 minute drive away. Will hopefully have them on for the Huddersfield meet on Sunday. I think those protectors look pretty sweet actually, I have headlight protectors on my motorbike headlight and it they have been a godsend when my mates Ninja flicks up stones at 150!!! I have bodywork protectors on the front fairing for the same reason.
  13. I should be there mate 5) Monkey
  14. I saw it today mate, looks like brand new!
