i have a 2000 plate 1.1 saxo for my daily drive as well.


Oh dear it's not the one I sold is it? Worst car I ever owned, terrible thing.

And yes, slightly jealous that you got to build and drive such a nice car at such a ripe age!


Yes Jammy I suppose it was terrible having to wait until you were 22 to own a Cerbera.

what do you mean ny engineers report? is that simiar to sva or vic?


Insurance companies sometimes require you to get a report carried out on the integrity of the car when you do any kind of re-engineering of major parts. De-seaming is major work that deals with the most structually important details of the shell and completely re-works how the shell is held together so they might well ask for a report. I wouldn't know what sort of engineers carry out these reports as I've never had to do it but I guess that the insurer could give you a list of names.
