Right, car might well be off the road for the next month or so to save some cash :undecided:

I need to check that I can cancel the insurance renewal (pretty sure there's a 2 week 'cooling off' period?)

Basically my g/f has a fiat 500 which is sitting on the drive doing nothing and she has a new job that she can walk to. I can use her car to get to/from work for a couple of months which will save me some cash in fuel and give me some time to get my insurance renewal money together and not pay for it with a credit card.

I'm still in 2 minds about it at the moment but it seems the logical thing to do at the moment :undecided:

Seems like a good plan apart from leaving yours sitting around uninsured. :smiley:

More like this:



Back to the golf though, I got bored of my carbon wrapped parts inside the car so decided to start wrapping the door grabs and radio surround in brushed aluminium vinyl:



Then decided I was sick of the cream rear view mirror:

That looks  :cool: :cool:

A little more wrapping:



I just need to wait for the rest of my vinyl to arrive so I can do the ash tray and cage surrounds :smiley:
