    Black K11 SR in Stockton-on-Tees - anyone?

    Haha. I only ever see it in the early hours of the morning, so it might be actually a shed... Would it be incredibly cheeky to accost the owner and offer to buy it?

    How much difference is there between the 1.0 and 1.3?

    Had a look at the green one, IMO the "repaired sills" were nowhere near a good enough standard to pass another MOT. I'm waiting for a call back regarding another, it's getting some repairs done to it now, apparently. I've not yet had a look at any private sales, if I were to bribe you with...

    are people giving up on the K10?

    I still miss mine - I've had four cars since, loved all of them, but I'd love to have saved G226 TVS from being seemingly scrapped. :(

    How much difference is there between the 1.0 and 1.3?

    So far, I've been limiting my search to finding a semi-decent, cheap, 1.3. But, alas, finding one is proving tricky - so I'm thiking if nothing's turned up by pay day, to have a look at some 1.0s? I'm not expecting rocketship performance, but is it worhth olding out for a 1.3? Running costs are...

    new wipers

    As of, ooh, a week ago, Tesco were doing their wipers at half price, so the flatblades came to £8/ pair. Terrific things, but did take a right naff on to fit them to my Omega...

    How do you check the windcreen washer fluid level?

    Fill it til your feet get wet. Use as necessary until no water accompanies the sound of the pump. Refill until your only-just-dried tootsies get wet again. Repeat ad infinitum. HTH ;)

    *ambles in looking a bit shabby*

    Ey up all. I was on here aaaaages ago, when I had my '89 K10. After a brief foray onto the dark side, with a Corsa, had two Almeras, now I'm after a K11 for second car and missus' duties. I'll probably do my usual tricks of posting hundreds of messages in the first week, then going ot being a...

    Winter 29.11.2008 Ferrybridge Meet

    If it's OK, I'll put my nose in as a probable? Depends if I've got a Micra by then... or if I'll get shot for turning up in an Omega...

    Bump / dent removal.

    Always worth getting a quote from a SMART repairer, depending on the size of the damaged area... but in this case I'd agree, probably easier to get a full boot, if you can find one in a matching colour.

    Main points to look for?

    Apologies if this has been covered, I'm generally useless at these forum things... I'm going to look at a M-plate 1.3LX this week, just wondered if there's anything in particular to be looking out for - any points specific to this model year? I'm a mechanic by trade, so I know my way...
