My insurance charge £20 a week, but I'm sure theres a limit as to how many times it can be used (otherwise everyone'd just insure a shit car and temp insure a nice car to save money) lol.

I insured my mates track audi like 10 times throughout the summer for trackdays / when my car was f*cked and they had no problem with it. £15 for the week with admiral.

That's a bargain! Get an mot and sort the brakes you can. Easily get a grand for that.

It's not even worth fixing tbh, the petrol gtis don't go for much these days, especially in silver. Would be a good breaker though, as long as condition is alright after all those miles.


The guy that I may have got the HDi from has decided to px it now as he's been offered £750 for it! Not bad considering he was gonna scrap it lol. Ah well, I'll keep my eye out anyway. But just as i thought it was warming up for car work.were aparently gonna get colder weather and snow again. Oh, and its looks like I'll be losing the ground I'd have used as my nan is going into an old lady flat, so that means I'd have nowhere to break/fix another car now. Ever get the feeling everythings against you lol. :roll:
