*waits for danny to say the tree popped out of the tarmac*

yeah them trees, cant do nothing once they have jumped out into the road

I've beem on Metro power and they still haven't activated me, do you know how long it takes? how do you get it 'individualised'? Did you just let out some of the stuff in the sus to lower it?

[danny2009]

have you not recieved a activation email ?

and yeah you can let fluid out to lower it but it isnt reccomended, although i did it just dont let too much out as the front sits lower than the rear and they are linked up front to back so you let some out of 1 side it lowers the front and back

individualising individualises the suspention so it gives it a more stiffer less body roll ride.

the proper way to lower it is here ...

No i've not recieved a activation email, takes the p*ss. Yeah saw that on there but i didn't really want to read all of it lol, prefer pictures myself but looks like i might have to.
What was the damage to the car then? you got any pictures?

[danny2009]

write off mate i stripped it then scrapped it

Piks for you

thats obviously not caused by the crash.

lol, someone wasn't going the speed limit . What you got left of the car then? I can't seem to find a 114 GTa anywhere that i like and 3 door. I want either BRG like your one or the dark blue colour, same as "Pandy" off MetroPower.

Also could you tell me what is the difference between the 100 and the 114 as i can't seem to see a difference nor find anything about it on the internet but there must be a difference because why would there be differen't models.

rover 100 is the model of rover the 14 bit is the engine rover 11.4 rover 11.1 ect rover 100 usually is a 1.1 and a 114 is a 1.4, there hard to come by in good condition mate even mine wasnt the best and set me back a bit

[danny2009]

and it was a national speedlimit by the way

[G-baby158]

Oh ok thats cleared that up for me, thanks.
How long was it before you got a activation message on MetroPower? I still haven't got one.

Also who was you insured with and how much was it? As when i get one it will be my first car and would of just passed my test and need to know a ball park figure.

[danny2009]

it took a good month or 2 to sort it out took ages :/.

and it was £950 fully comp for me through co-op insurance

[G-baby158]

Thanks for all this info though, really has helped me with like knowing whats the difference and that.

[danny2009]
