Oh yeah sorry forgot to do that! Will do it asap. I think the bhp would go up to about 225 the same roughly as a cupra, megane sport etc although don't quote me on performance figures etc.

My insurance was £1460 for a 19 y/o lad with 2 years NCB so it doesn't look too gd for an 18 year old but have a look and c wot u get. They wont insure me on it but i could technically do it without them knowing lol. They allowed my induction kit for £90. Is there nothing on the trader?I got mine from a trade garage in Birmingham. Probably paid too much for it but it has low mileage! Wot colour anni u after?Seen a few on flea bay recently. maybe worth a look?

You could do it and not tell them. But, if you are involved in an accident and someone dies, and they find out you have remapped your car and not told them (which they will), the phrase "being in the sh!t" doesn't come close.

And thats y im reluctant to do it. Also if i have a crash and want my car repaired, they won't pay out. Mind you, from previous experiences they never pay out anyway!

Microbunny,

As promised I have taken a couple of photos of the plaque. Im not sure how well they'll come out but I can take some more in daylight if needs be. Hope this helps.

p.s. excuse the state of the car its not normally that untidy!!

True, but it also depends on the type of crash and how bad it is. They don't check the ECU on every car that crashes.

Hi Jon
thanks for the pics they were fine and very useful so thanks alot  :smiley: the number looks fairly low on it but couldnt quite tell what number is your car?
plus your car didnt look that untidy to me but it was dark!! its not as bad as mine at the mo as im waiting to get my door fixed and they will give it a full valet after that so hopefully that will be in about two weeks i cant wait to have two normal doors again with no extra corners  :wink:

Hi Jon
my number is 1725 which is not a bad number but i would have liked one of the first 1000 but never mind im just happy ive got the anniversary edition! :smiley:
thanks about the door i cant wait for it to be done either because i hate the thought of people looking at my car and thinking it was me who did it (and as im female alot of people would think that!!! :wink:)
