IXELEVEN Posted 12January, 2016 Report Share Posted 12January, 2016 just reneged on what we has agreed last week. Didn't seem to bother them that muchDid you advise them that you where going to advertise it (or had advertised it) privately prior to consigning? Nice car by the way, a lot of red ones about though.

FAP911 Posted 17January, 2016 Report Share Posted 17January, 2016 Why do the backdate ZAG have unusual offset wheels compared to the SINGER variantsDo SINGERS have considerable mods done to the track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turboT Posted 17January, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 17January, 2016 Jeez T, all those pics by the seaside would make me a little worried about the rust factor ....ha - just an x-mas break, but does make you think about the whole aussi car thing. Is a 'coogee Carerra' as bad as a Uk import? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamr Posted 17January, 2016 Report Share Posted 17January, 2016 ha - just an x-mas break, but does make you think about the whole aussi car thing. Is a 'coogee Carerra' as bad as a Uk import?I would think about and insist on a PPI before buying a "beachside" suburb classic car ..... even for an everyday car .... has the same stigma about all the salt in the air.It wouldn't stop me from buying it .... just be a little more cautious. Probably not much in it, but the stigma ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastr Posted 17January, 2016 Report Share Posted 17January, 2016 I live within a good boomerang throw of the ocean. If you're mindful then your car doesn't need to suffer. The 'salt in the air' is a very real thing, but it's easy to avoid. 1. Don't ever leave your car outside. Ever. Washing and driving are the only reasons to have it outside. 2. Cover the car inside the garage. 3. Keep your garage closed. 4. When you wash, really flush the car with fresh water and dry it thoroughly.salt in the air is just salty moisture. It's heavy, and it falls downwards. If you cover your car and don't leave it outside, then it won't go upwards and rust out sills, exhausts and fasteners. Road salt is the opposite and gets flung up into the parts that can handle it the least.'country cars' have their own problems - dust everywhere and rock hard rubber. Only cars kept in cartoon bubbles are well preserved.anyone is welcome to inspect my DD which is not only a UK import but has lived next to the beach for 10 years since import. The only rust it has is on the fan retaining bolt, which was not coated for some reason. Cars which are looked after do not automatically have a rusty death sentence.

ELSPORTO Posted 18January, 2016 Report Share Posted 18January, 2016 I was winding you up T.But having said that I always give all my cars a good freshwater hose on the underbody and an exterior wash after they've been at the beach.Ankor Wax is a good product to prevent rust too ... a coat all over and underneath every 6 months after a good wash, polish and week of dry weather ...
