It’s not hard if it’s a good nice car. If it needs a repair cert (bent sills,rails or rust) I wouldn’t bother, by the time you buy it,revin it, repairs and repair cert you could have got one with a reg and wof. 

If the seller isn’t the last registered owner can be an issue, but if it’s not reported stolen get the seller to put something on paper then you can go to a justice of peace and get them to sign a declaration of ownership and your sweet. Had to do afew times  in the last year,they seem to be getting picky on it

I havwnt fucked with one, but the ID.4 and ID.3s weve had have been great! Couple things i hates were 'base' model (all we could get on launch and still 90k!) didnt have keyless entry, cunts! and i dont like the capacitive buttons on the steering wheel personally as they have swipe functions etc, so if you go looking for a button by feel, you change your mums hair appointment in your calendar on your phone if you're not careful. Im sure it'll get second nature if you owned one and dailied it, but i only did one trip in it really and i wigh it wasnt like that.

Not sure how much of the other ID range made it into the buzz though/

they look fucking cool though! But i'd also test drive the EV.9 as that also looks fucking sick!

Cheers we going back next week the dealer organised different ones to look at. I don’t like the panorama roof and the big screen kinda shit but that’s all cars these days.

Yeah they spendy but same price as Toyota vellfire van, I like the red/black ones

Hey @Ned what’s your thoughts on these?

Ive got the wife kinda talked into trying a ev again after the ipace issues of 23.we test drove this one today and im really impressed 

If towing a lot get paj I had one done 400,000 ks, towed 7 meter boat sweet and race cars everywhere like a tank 

Just found a kit on yahoo that turns these into pick ups

Hybrid ones suck, the fancy probox is a succeed 

My first one was 5 speed 1300 fwd with nos and went well. Second was 1500cc 5 speed with a blitz supercharger kit fitted, very disappointing 

They do a Mazda one to but only seen them in 2wd

@hood cheers, next mission is to cut a S cargo up so it lays frame and stick it up on a pole as a sigh

It gives the full Datsun experience, just sits in a shed and slowly falls a part

Ha ha no worry’s

The deck is pretty small in that thing, about the same as most double cabs, which is less use than a Prius. 

My real man spec yn85 has a much digger dick 

 

 

Deck. 

 

I hope these come here in hybrid or ev. They have nothing in them, was told a radio was a option

I’ve found leaks that started all the way at the front of roofs and tracked all the way down to the back. It could be any where. It could even be leaking through a bolt/screw filling the tubes up then dumping it out when parked in deferent ways. I’m not a fan of that liquid rubber and my old work wouldn’t touch anything that had it on it. Some sealers even react to it and you get a weird slime between them.Pressure testing only really works if you can seal everything up and get it to a decent psi. 50% of leaks are shitty sealing jobs, s/s screws into Ali is also a problem. Get some pics of how the side trim sits and a pic of the out side of leak so I can see what’s around it. 

You want the sealer to have nice smooth edges more like a rubber gasket.

edges like this trap crap and will fail faster

edges like this don’t just do the bolt holes. Go out to the edges, stops flexing and stops shit getting under ii

I do camper/boat upholstery and this is a shit job, trying to find leaks in things like this is a nightmare. 60% of the time the waters tracking from somewhere. Treated ply eats ali fast (turns to white dusty shit) and becomes a nightmare. Pull what ever you can off easy,clean really well the get sealer under what your putting back on. Putting sealer on like you have in second to last pic won’t seal much.clean the shit out of what you going to seal and use gloves.

I’ve used otahuhu chrome platers  in Auckland afew years ago to do some Gloria bumpers, wasn’t cheap but did turn out really nice

A real mint blue 2 door 4 banger 3 owners sold for $21,500 just before Xmas on trade me, there was a 2 door one for sale at the Kerikeri car show in march with a nice rb conversion and he got $30k

Ive got a F120A-II F11 sitting round doing nothing - it can go to a good cause as I could use the space, and it would be a good home for an A12 if it loses its.

This is the conversion I want to do in my figaro
