the bonnet is straight and rusrt free. there's a paint run that needs sanding out though, I never got around to it :oops: if you want it you need to grab it quick 'cos I'm waiting to hear back from the scrapeprs to find out when they're coming to collect the car.

Hi. Did you get my message about the throttle body, plenum and tvis system? The tvis is the main one as mine doesn't work.

Cheers

ah, didn't realise it was you who bought it. it was sent first class on thursday. hopefully it will arrive asap, if not i've got the proof of posting so will have to stick a claim in with Royal Mail but they won't do anything for 12 days I think, as it could turn up in that time.


A full working week now and it hasn't been delivered - hoping it gets delivered ASAP doesn't seem to be working :roll:

But walking to work all week in the snow was fun....wait...no....I'm lying.

It was posted, I have the receipt, what more do you want me to do about it? Royal Mail will not do anything about it until it has been missing for a few more days.

I'm not going to bother with any more bits, I've got better thigns to dow tih my spare time than go through all the hassle for a tenner here and there and have to put up with people who want everything, for nothing, yesterday. car is going at 9am tomorrow and all the spares I've got in my spare room can go with it. I've got my shiny silver one, I'm happy with that :mrgreen:

I'm sure everone appreciated your stuff from the car :thumleft:

Yes - royal mail is very slow at catching up. I guess if its not sorted by monday then it needs chasing. Maybe chat to each other re: this via pm, as it takes the thread OT.

He didn't reply to mine so good luck. Think he's spat his dummy out, hence:

Thats a bit harsh, as he was giving free bits away. Basically i read it as he CBA to do anymore - fair enough. Esp , as the car is goign monday. I don't blame him if he dosen't reply with that attitude towards him.
I appreciate there is an issue with something posted out, and a good enough reason for him not to bother with any more due to the hassle.
I am hoping that the postage issue will have resloved by itself on monday.

chill peeps

lol just in case anyone was wondering what I meant by deal with idiots, I should have added impatient to the list!

car is now gone by the way. The reason I didn't get back to you about the heater matrix is because I wasn't sure if it made it into the "keep" box or the bin so i was going to have a look for it first. sorry for not getting a reply to you within 3 minutes of you posting, but funnily enough, I don't sit here all day looking for requests and then run straight outside to look for things, I have a job and a social life.

Tom: bonnet catch not available sorry, it was still on the car I'm afraid.

there was no dummy spitting, just a nice big sigh with me saying "oh well, b0ll0cks to it, I've got my silver one" :D

P.S heater matrix will go on ebay at some point, you would have been welcome to it but I need to the money to buy a new dummy :-#
