If all mods are declared I can't see the problem tbh.

It's a standard question when taking out insurance, and insurers aren't stupid - they share information via databases. At least TRY to cover your tracks man!
But all my mods are declared, thats what I mean about why does it matter that i'm listing my mods?

All my mods are wrote down on an A4 bit of paper which I fax over to the insurance company..

Fairy nuff, just the cloners to watch out for then.
In answer to the earlier question: No, I wouldn't be happy about £150 a month extra, but if I presented a list of mods to my existing insurer that increased the power by almost 40% over standard, I wouldn't be surprised.
Anyway, best of luck with it - it's a nice car.

Yeah there is that, but everyone has pictures of their cars on the internet with the number plate showing..

I dont think people should clone my plate anyway tbh.. I dont bother with MOT or Tax...

Joke!

It wasnt the mods that made the insurance high.. Well I suppose it doesnt help but I just changed the cars over and left my mod sheet from the ZR with them..

Basically the ZS is listed to have the same mods as my ZR..

The only things that arent done to the ZS at the min are lowered, tinted windows and a remap.. Thats not illegal is it? I just thought for ease id just let them use the same sheet my ZR mods were on instead of having to edit it for the ZS then keep ringing up and adding stuff?

But yeah if both ZR and ZS were standard the ZS is £300 more anyway so thats where the £150 a months come from..

Had a few ignition barrel problems..

The rollers bearings kept dropping in the way..



So I had to flick it up with my key..



Put the key in a wriggle it about a bit..



Before it would go in! Got really annoying after a while.. Specially in the dark!



But iv now sorted it!



I gave the metal a little twist and out come the bearings.. So I pulled the bottom metal part off as well as it was a bit sharp..

Doesnt look too pretty but it got rid of the annoying problem!

Sorted!

How much would you all say my ZS is worth?

My mate is positive I could get £1700-1800..

Im not so sure.. I was thinking more £1500?

Not that im wanting to sell but if worst comes to worst with insurance I might have to
