SOLD genuinely gutted

Thanks guys, I know it's probably a quick and easy job for someone who knows what they're doing.... but sadly that's not me. So it would be a case of buying all the bits, paying someone to do the work, and being even more out of pocket than I am currently. It's my daily and I'm constantly busy, even evenings and weekends so it's not something I could attempt myself unfortunately. It either sells as it is or not at all, I'm looking to free up some funds by selling, not put any more into it. I can't justify spending any more!

Really? No interest at all?

absolute beast! best of luck with the sale.

Nice one, thanks guys.

cool, thanks very much for that. easy fix? I'm not very mechanically minded!

alright guys, this weird thing started happening yesterday evening.... I've had the car for 2 years and the temperature gauge has NEVER gone above the half way mark regardless of driving, sitting in traffic on hot days etc. However, I was driving home yesterday evening and it suddenly started climbing and heading for the red mark, then it dropped just as quickly and stayed at half way again. Same again this morning on the way to work, drove for 5 minutes then dropped my son off, it rose quickly and got towards the top again so I turned the ignition off for a few mins then on again, temp was st

Still for sale guys! I really want it gone to free up some funds, make me an offer, worst I can say is no

Yeah all good, never had any issues with it and it feels super smooth at any speed.

new rear discs and pads going on today - ID-Workz drilled and grooved discs and EBC Ultimax pads.

cool thanks fella, will put an order in tomorrow....

Glanza sailed through its MOT a couple of weeks ago but the rear discs were flagged up as an advisory. Can you guys recommend uprated discs and pads that are a straight fit? Cheers.

New battery fitted last Wednesday.

Thanks dude but I'm after something like a Touran, and I don't want to put any more money than I get from the Glanza sale into my next car. No idea to be honest, you don't see many big power autos around. sorry fella not looking to break, it either goes as a complete car or not at all.

almost forgot... also had a brand new Powerflex lower gearbox mount fitted last week.

update - new MOT (rear discs were an advisory, will be sorted in next few days) oil and filter change using Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 10W-50 Ester Fully Synthetic Engine Oil electrical gremlins sorted (rear lights, dash, number plate illumination all fully functional now) cheers Mike.

Hi Guys, Electrical gremlins.... car in question is a 96 P reg Glanza V. Headlights are a bit temperamental and only main/full beam seem to work (no side lights) also they are meant to be HIDs but don't seem very powerful. Dashboard has stopped lighting up. Rear lights - only the brake lights and indicators are working, lights and fog and reverse have all stopped. Any ideas? My mate found a lighting diagram online somewhere a few months ago which suggested it was all down to one fuse, but I can't find it now. Cheers.

PM sent, thanks fella!

Right, last time my car was on the RR I was told there was excessive engine movement due to a worn lower gearbox mount. I called ID Works today to order a replacement but they told me Powerflex don't make a bush for auto cars. A member sent this info to me earlier.... can anyone confirm that I can use something else (such as a manual bush or a bush for LSD equipped cars) please? Thanks. I have a glanza auto its not LSD but on the auto the bush is bigger than a manual gearbox mount, I'm not 100% on this only that the LSD bush might fit the auto mount, when I was looking for one an eBay selle

Ok, I know I'm going to look really ignorant here, asking questions about my own car which I've owned for two years..... but does anyone know if it has an LSD and if so, is it standard or aftermarket? There was no mention of it on the original for sale advert, I'm about to order a new lower gearbox bush and I need to know what's what to get the correct bush. Cheers.

jayc... are you the guy I spoke to in the Shell garage last weekend?

Engineers report from Quest Motorpsort, after it broke down last year and they sorted it all out for me. this was completed at the end of September 2014 and it's been perfect ever since: "Received car in a non running condition. On trying to start the car it was very apparent that there was a compression problem. 1. carry out compression test , found pressure of 45 , 0 , 60 , 150 psi respectively from cylinder 1 on wards. 2. carry out cylinder leakdown test to determine if the problem was head or block related , cylinder leakage was 75 , 100 , 70 , 20% respectively from cylinder 1. 3.

yeah very good, apart from the blip mentioned above! all got sorted though. I need something bigger and more practical. yeah everything was sorted by Quest Motorsport last September, it's been fault free since! strictly selling as a whole car fella, no time to break or be left with a rolling shell that nobody wants!

Don't motorway miles count then? driving is driving. I'm obviously not saying that a spirited drive will return 300 to a tank, but when I drove the car back from Newcastle to Essex, I got around 300. Cheers.

just tried them all and they were fine for me, took me straight to the pics... do you have to be a Flickr member to see Flickr or links or something? no chance, it's going complete or not at all. cheers anyway. around 280, thats what it made on TD's rolling road after the conversion anyway. near enough it's all detailed in the build thread (search Project Impulse Purchase) but I'll find the info from Quest when I get home and post it in here.
