That was with Flux. Is there anyone else I can try?
Fun starts after xmas. I'm not getting in debt for it.
Saved for the insurance now. Next up is £220 for Cambelt and Water Pump and Sump Gasket on the Calibra Engine.
Chassis Plates and Engine Bay Spruce up
Then get a fitting kit - Shazam!

Don't know how much they made that in Parts though. Cambelt kit is pricey, god knows how much for a water pump. Ecotec Sump Gasket and a couple of hours Labour.

Ohh, thought u meant just the cambelt, and ur doin the work yourself.
I paid -
£20 for cambelt
£38 for waterpump
Around £4 for sumpgasket.
All GM parts
Thats why I couldnt understand where £220 came from

give these a ring... 08448361248.
i dont know who the are but they just phoned me after i done a multiquote and i got a result from kwikfit for 1190 on a 1.4 sport 21 0 ncb driving since june 2005 and with the accident declaired.. well anyways i told them the result i got and the women took all the usual details and checked everything with the quote.. said she will see if she can beat it.. few mins later she come back off hold and told me 1090.. 100 cheaper when even 1190 is cheap anyways, so i asked how much tpft and that came down to 850.. the past week i have been getting quotes of 1300 to 1900 both full and tpft. i never listen to some of the people on the phone and always forget the names of the insurers but remember the price, as long as i take a refernce number and a phone number im safe lol
