| 07:38.25 | morsing | Leeds: Beer |
| 07:38.42 | Leeds | no, coffee (or maybe ice cream) with Zela a bit later |

| 07:42.07 | Leeds | no, she isn't |
| 07:42.37 | morsing | Photo? |
| 07:42.49 | Leeds | don't actually have one... |
| 07:44.14 | morsing | Nice |
| 07:44.19 | morsing | Leeds: Are you happy? |
| 07:45.08 | Leeds | so-so |
| 07:45.23 | morsing | Why did you ask about my cars? |
| 07:46.11 | Leeds | why haven't you got rid of 2 of them yet? |
| 07:48.47 | morsing | Because I can't do with just one car |
| 07:49.09 | morsing | I never meant to have 3 but the one I'm selling has caused too many problems to sell |
| 07:49.53 | morsing | Leeds: My brother-in-law just paid £1000 to have brakepads replaced on his Renault! Something I do for less than £20! |
| 07:50.01 | morsing | I just saved £980! |
| 07:50.08 | Leeds | no you didn't! |
| 07:50.14 | morsing | Stop this crap about having two cars! |
| 07:50.15 | Leeds | and why didn't he pay you £500 for it? |
| 07:50.18 | morsing | No I didn't what? |
| 07:50.40 | morsing | Because he's ignorant and also lived in Denmark. |
| 07:50.42 | morsing | lives |
| 07:50.49 | morsing | No I didn't what? |
| 07:51.14 | morsing | I have two cars because I can do the work myself and save £1000's every year |
| 07:51.34 | morsing | A full service is about £40 where my friends pay £300 for a yearly service |
| 07:51.52 | morsing | But I need something else to drive if it's something that takes days |
| 07:52.24 | morsing | And Big Red costs me about £30/mth i insurance and road tax. Not that much is it? |
| 07:52.31 | morsing | So leave it now, please? |
| 07:52.51 | cpufreak | morsing: why the fuck did he pay 1000quid for brakepads? |
| 07:53.23 | cpufreak | I paid less to get bigger disks (380mm), bigger callipers (6pot), and carbon metallic brake pads _fitted_ to my CSL.. |
| 07:53.24 | morsing | cpufreak: Don't ask! I don't get involved. If people want new cars and go to dealers with them, they're asking for it. |
| 07:53.45 | morsing | A friend in England paid £500 for the same job. Ridicoulous |
| 07:54.09 | morsing | Leeds: What was it I didn't? |
| 07:55.38 | cpufreak | my BMW dealer in the UK rocks, they do most stuff for free, or expense it to BMW UK |
| 07:55.49 | cpufreak | as they like having my car in |
| 07:56.09 | cpufreak | they were quite upset when I told them I was moving to holland |

| 08:56.27 | cpufreak | why is that bad ant? |
| 08:57.01 | bilarh_ | with reference to the brake discussion above, the subaru stealers wanted to charge me 400 quid on top of a 500 quid service |
| 08:57.27 | bilarh_ | cpufreak: you bastard ;-) |
| 08:57.35 | bilarh_ | with regards to the interesting work, of course :) |

| 08:59.06 | cpufreak | heh |
| 08:59.20 | cpufreak | bilarh_: how do they justify that? |
| 08:59.52 | bilarh_ | cpufreak: well, they were going to change the discs too, but that's like a 2 min job on each side once you have the wheels off and pads out anyway |
| 09:00.10 | bilarh_ | the discs are something stupid like 150 quid and the pads he wanted 100 for |
| 09:00.17 | bilarh_ | for rubbish standard pads |
| 09:00.28 | bilarh_ | so i told them to stuff it and bought a big brake kit for 650 :) |
| 09:00.48 | cpufreak | wont they do you a deal? |
| 09:00.56 | bilarh_ | oh no this was back in august |
| 09:01.01 | bilarh_ | i changed the discs myself |
| 09:01.04 | bilarh_ | and the pads |
| 09:01.26 | bilarh_ | it was a decent upgrade anyway... now running 335mm discs up front |
| 09:01.32 | bilarh_ | looks a bit more bling if nothing else :) |
| 09:01.43 | bilarh_ | and i guess the extra area might be good for brake fade |

| 09:50.37 | morsing | bilarh_: My 635 is a Highline Motorsport but this guy at work who's interested in buying it says he phoned BMW with the VIN and they say it's not a Motorsport, not even a Highline. He's talking crap. I think he's trying to get the price down. What a twat. He's saying BMW checked the VIN three times and it cames up as a standard base model. |
| 09:52.22 | cpufreak | whats the registration number? |
| 09:52.25 | morsing | Can BMW supply me with some sort of sales/build sheet do you think? |
| 09:52.29 | morsing | G758 FCK |
| 09:52.49 | cpufreak | No descriptive data is held by DVLA for registration number G758FCK. |
| 09:52.52 | cpufreak | If the registration is correct, continue with the check. |
| 09:53.07 | morsing | Continue please. The DLVA won't tell you though |
| 09:53.09 | antiphase | Maybe it's a ringer |
| 09:53.22 | morsing | antiphase: Ohh fuck off with that crap again |

| 09:59.40 | antiphase | morsing: Tell the cunt to get an HPI check done if he's interested |
| 10:00.14 | morsing | antiphase: What the fuck HPI going to do for him? He's questioning the model of the car! |
| 10:00.48 | antiphase | I'd have thought their report would have specified the type of car, which they ought to have determined |
| 10:00.51 | goibhniu | ufo: Poland for world domination ... hooray! |
| 10:00.58 | antiphase | I've never had one done though |
| 10:00.59 | morsing | antiphase: Not to that details |
| 10:01.01 | morsing | detail |
| 10:01.14 | morsing | It will only say 635CSi or something |
| 10:01.43 | goibhniu | ufo: are you talking about rugby or something? |
| 10:01.54 | ufo | goibhniu: football |
| 10:01.55 | antiphase | Well, if your registration document fails to define the precise type, I'd suggest it's a matter of opinion then |
| 10:02.32 | ufo | http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/6562527.stm |
| 10:03.17 | kjalil | is there a dvla link for getting info about registration numbers? |
| 10:06.09 | cpufreak | http://www.rac.co.uk/web/vehiclechecks/ |
| 10:06.40 | morsing | antiphase: How's it a matter of opinion? BMW sold different specs of their cars and a registration document is never going to say that. |
| 10:06.47 | cpufreak | morsing: it does usually |
| 10:06.50 | cpufreak | eg for my car, its an M3 |
| 10:06.57 | kjalil | cpufreak: thanks. i do have a list of job sites, but I don't have it on me right now |
| 10:06.57 | cpufreak | but DVLA have it down as an M3 CSL |
| 10:07.04 | morsing | antiphase: It's the difference between £800 and £8000 when selling this type of car |
| 10:07.17 | cpufreak | which is the same difference |
| 10:07.33 | morsing | cpufreak: On all my cars the reg. doc. just says Volvo 240 2.3 litre petrol, nothing more |
| 10:07.42 | cpufreak | odd |
| 10:07.47 | cpufreak | maybe newer cars are done better |
| 10:07.47 | morsing | It's never going to give model specific details |
| 10:07.49 | cpufreak | Vehicle Details1 for registration number CU04NYK |
| 10:07.49 | cpufreak | Make |
| 10:07.49 | cpufreak | BMW |
| 10:07.49 | cpufreak | Year of manufacture |
| 10:07.49 | cpufreak | 2004 |
| 10:07.50 | cpufreak | Model |
| 10:07.52 | cpufreak | M3 CSL |
| 10:07.54 | cpufreak | Engine size(CC) |
| 10:07.55 | antiphase | Get the conversion company to verify it then |
| 10:07.56 | cpufreak | 3246 |
| 10:08.09 | morsing | antiphase: What conversion company? |
| 10:08.19 | cpufreak | anyway |
| 10:08.22 | antiphase | Highline |
| 10:08.29 | morsing | cpufreak: Yeah, exactly. Other than what on the badges it gives you no details |
| 10:08.38 | morsing | antiphase: Highline what? |
| 10:08.56 | cpufreak | to answer your original question, if you ask BMW and give them the VIN they should be able to identify it |
| 10:09.02 | antiphase | It sounds like it's a factory-authorised conversion. Is that right? |
| 10:09.03 | cpufreak | based on build documents etc |
| 10:09.14 | morsing | cpufreak: I agree. He's lying to me or they don't have the record any more |
| 10:09.24 | cpufreak | no Highline is a german specificifation |
| 10:09.30 | cpufreak | on golfs it means the smae as GTi |
| 10:09.36 | cpufreak | its basically 'top spec' |
| 10:09.45 | antiphase | So it's not related to Highline Motorsport in any way? |
| 10:09.54 | morsing | antiphase: ? |
| 10:09.56 | cpufreak | motorsport, probably means it had the M engine out of the M1, and which was later put in the E29 M5 |
| 10:10.01 | morsing | antiphase: It's a highline Motorsport |
| 10:10.06 | antiphase | 10:50 < morsing> bilarh_: My 635 is a Highline Motorsport |
| 10:10.29 | antiphase | I kind of assumed that, since there is a company called Highline Motorsport, there might be some link |
| 10:10.36 | cpufreak | morsing: surely a dyno would prove its an M. |
| 10:10.42 | morsing | antiphase: There isn't |
| 10:10.58 | antiphase | That's a bit shit then |
| 10:11.00 | morsing | cpufreak: The Motorsport didn't have an M-tech engine (fortunately) |
| 10:11.22 | cpufreak | os yours isn't what was basically the original m6? |
| 10:11.42 | cpufreak | i.e the M635CSi |
| 10:11.55 | morsing | cpufreak: No - two different things |
| 10:12.16 | morsing | The Motorsport edition was only sold in the last year, i.e. 1989 |
| 10:12.31 | cpufreak | were all '89 cars Motorsports? |
