NFC to ACCEPT Contactless?
Hi guys and girls. Been a while since I've been on here but I'm after some help and always found this place a useful source of assistance! I'm after an app or something similar that allows me to request and accept a contactless payment using my mobile phone. This is for personal use, not business. T...

It's been a while.....
Evening all. Haven't shown my face on here for a while. Not because of anything bad, just drifted away like a lot of people do. I've still got my Coupe Turbo and plan on getting it ready for spring, although that might be tight with my first baby due in 8 weeks! I'm still in the Rover scene though -...

Were there any issues with police/insurance after? I can't imagine the insurance company willing to pay out....

Re: Is it me, or is this place getting really quiet?
Well I'm still well in the Rover family. I still have my 220 Coupe Turbo and my new ZT CDTI. The Coupe has taken a back step while I get the ZT to a perfect standard because I need to use it for work every day. I think longer serving members are just getting bored with the 1 question newbies asking ...

Since buying my ZT I have been browsing and posting on a 75/ZT forum, which is so busy it's untrue! Then I come back to here and it's dead....apart from the usual questions over and over again about fitting a bigger turbo or making a ZR faster by a 17 year old newbie.

Re: Since when has Royal Mail been so expensive?!
I use myhermes. They collect from my house (I leave parcels on the doorstep when I go to work) and have never had any issues.
It's about £3 for up to 1kg, and the maximum is £8 for 15kg. Not bad at all. I've sent spoilers for less than a fiver.

Calipers need a good clean but £50 for a pair of 282mm calipers with carriers and drilled discs is a bargain.
Let's just hope they are ok when they turn up.

Re: Anyone ever been incorrectly done for speeding...
You say it's a private plate?
I used to know someone that drove with a private plate that wasn't registered because 'it looks good'.
Maybe this car owner wanted the plate you've got so had it made up anyway.

Anyone been caught out by the new tax-insurance law yet?
I know we discussed this a lot last year, so I thought a quick catch up was in order. If you missed last years numerous threads, the law states a taxed vehicle must be insured. This makes it difficult for genuine people that buy a new car, swap their insurance over, then sell the old car. Cashing th...
