No I'm doing summat with the national trust at the mo...can't remember what its called though

Well done Chris, I'm amazed nobody else came in. You got a good deal fella. Enjoy

Yeah, will be cleaning them up next week, same with carpets, halfway there with them lol

Always difficult to capture, but this is the sort of effect the sun has on petrol blue, they always look better in the flesh

Right sun is out and gold is coming through on the resprayed bonnet, happy days. Will get a picture on of the bumper as only half needed doing, see who can tell which side

Also again, its now on eBay and reserve has been met already, so it will be going, good luck if anyone is bidding

Also...anyone that's owned one will tell you it looks different in any light, so its rare that the car looks the same on every panel anyway, if that makes any sense lol

To be fair the sun hasn't shone since it was painted, but it looks good to me, and body shop were happy enough to do it. If we get any sun before it sells then I will let you know

Yeah the carpets need sorting, and some general cleaning, its on the list with back brakes and MOT...cheers felka

Thanks

Chris, mine is now sorted and just put on piston heads today. Have a look if you are still interested. The price has increased, in accordance with the work done. Regards, Tony

Alright guys, My priorities have now changed, so you will find my petrol blue on eBay with a no reserve starting price of £3,500. Grab a bargain. Cheers, Tony

No...have dropped to 4.3k. Still available if you want to view. Thanks

Mine is on for 4.5k if anyone is interested

Hi all, Just a quick update. The ombudsman have come back to me and have rejected my claim. They agree with the glass valuation. I'm no expert but they say that glass take into account the racing blue colour, even though the screenshot they sent me simply says blue, so I'm assuming it could be...

It would have been nice to speak to guy who valued mine, but I wasn't allowed, just told to go through their call centre. They have simply offered the value between glass and cap, and they were never going to do anything else.

its funny Ashton's as the insurance sent me their blurb with their final offer. Said I should complain to the legal ombudsman if I wasn't happy. I did this and they advised me to go to the financial ombudsman. I then did that. I'm currently going through the financial one, but the legal...

I guess the reality is I have followed everything the insurance company has asked me too. I always wanted a standard car which is what it was. They wanted trade prices, that is what I gave them. I'm very encouraged by what the ombudsman has discussed with me so far. I can't go into too much...

Well I hope they also went to the ombudsman. They wouldn't accept private ads, only trade. As you say a total waste of my time.

Thanks, I have took a screenshot of it. It should all help as evidence

If anyone does find a similar car for sale then please point me in the right direction as I'm using them as evidence. So far I have one from motorcraft for £4,200. And I have an email from the company who sold a one which just said price on asking. They were happy to say they would have sold...

Just as another footnote. The V5 turned up, the postal date was the 20th Jan, I have a paper trail saying they posted it on the 3rd Jan. Total morons.

She was...thank you

Thanks Louis..I do want it back. There is a long way to go, but technically it is still my car.

They were powder coated by DTM..supposed to be anthracite, they are the originals is all I can say. Still not sure if I will get it back. I have asked insurance if they plan to charge me for storage while the ombudsman sort it out. They haven't replied yet. No doubt some grease monkey at their...

Hi all, thanks to everyone for their wisdom and advice. The final offer from the insurance was £2,440. I have dismissed the offer and taken it to the ombudsman. Hopefully justice will be done and nearer to £3,500 will prevail. I'm posting the only two pictures I have, as a mark of respect and to...

I have sent them 7 quotes, all between 4k and 3.2k, but they aren't really taking any notice. All the ones I sent them are bog standard silver or black ones with higher mileage and crap service history, and not full fat. Can't do much more but go to the ombudsman. But in reality I shouldn't have...

I would happily recover it, but no option to buy it back so far. I am going to fight the insurance company over this, ombudsman here I come
