I'll also be very interested to know what you're having done, Dave.

Full service even tho it was serviced just over 2,000 miles ago by some moody outfit that I will not name Twisted Evil

Gearbox service among other things with a list that is way to long to go in to.

All will be revealed when all the work is done but from what Craig has told me about what parts were used on the last service I am so relieved that I have taken it to him to service the car and even more relived I put up a fight ( with the very much appreciated help from Prop and my friend John who drove me the 100 odd mile trip to view the car ) to what can only be described as the most unpleasant private buy I have ever made Twisted Evil

But a big Thumbs Up to Craig for putting up with me yesterday going through all that I wanted done Bow down

Cheers
Dave

The other thing I didn't mention was what a pleasure it was driving my dream car the 110 miles to Craig's.

Its just a case of waiting to find out the total cost Big Cry Big Cry

And very relieved that he Craig hasn't found anything scary underneath the car Bow down Bow down

Cheers

With the list I have and yes privacy glass does come into it but as I see this being a substantial bill , well the face lift is definitely out of the equation due to lack of funds to be totally honest Big Cry Big Cry

Ok here is the run down on what is getting done

Limo Tints.

Gear box service

Main service

Coolant Flush.

Brake Fluid Change.

Rear Disks & Pads.

Front Disks & Pads.

Side Steps , was a no brainer really with back problems ... would of liked retracting but hey couldn't afford them Big Cry

Boot Lid Stays & Shocker.

Rear Wheel Arch Refurb.

Paint Rear Wing due to small rust spot that if it wasn't done would just get worse !

Paint Front Bumper due to damage.

Paint Rear Bumper due to previos bad paint job before I brought the car.

Detail Paintwork.

Fix Parcel Shelf.

New Number Plates as went a bit crazy and brought new registration Rolling with laughter

Hopefully fix rear Auxiliary Flap as it didn't close but don't know what the outcome on this is yet = update << cant be fixed without a lot of time striping out the centre consul , am a bit gutted but will just have to live with the fact that it wont close Crying or Very sad

Griffin Ipod conversion but don't know the outcome on this one yet = update << cant have this mod as the ash tray wont close with the Griffin mod in the cigarette lighter socket , yet again a bit gutted but will have to find a different solution but cant be expensive as have pretty much reached the limit on what more I can spend on the car , maybe a windscreen mount of some decryption to hold the iPod but as the aux socked is in the back of the car am not to sure what to do here Confused

Fix Part of Roof Lining That Had Dropped

As you can see I went a bit crazy ( already crazy ) but wanted it all done at the same time and Cam-Tech-Craig came highly recommended Bow down so was a no brainer for me and just looking forward to seeing the finished job.

Total cost Censored well lets just say I didn't anticipate what it was going to be but Big Cry Big Cry Big Cry

Looks like the loud exhaust will have to wait , if ever to be totally honest Big Cry

Would just like to say thanks to Craig for putting up with me because I will be the first to admit I am hard work Bow down but hey life has dealt the blows it has Censored

Hopefully will be all done some time next week Thumbs Up

Cheers

Dave
