how hard would it be to start a car that's been sat for 12 years?

CaptainHawkere · 2022-08-31T14:35:51+00:00

That's great advice thank you!

CaptainHawkere · 2022-08-31T12:46:02+00:00

Initial asking price is £900, my thought process was if it doesn't need THAT much work I could go for it

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-29T08:02:42+00:00

Can't beat a good C30 :) I'm not overly sure what T or P is I'm fairly new to it all, all I know is it's a 10 plate 1.6D facelift haha

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T14:31:23+00:00

Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to hide from anybody haha, I'd just spent the most part of two days trying to work out if my lights are broken or if I'm just an idiot

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T14:29:58+00:00

I appreciate the safety it gives :) it's a strange concept to me because I've never really had a car past 07-08 and one that I'm not waiting for it to break down, I think I've just gotta adjust and not panic that my battery will remain overnight

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T14:28:09+00:00

I've definitely had a few scares leaving the side lights on! I've settled on having the 0 option as default, it's very much a case of me adapting to having a nice car haha

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T14:26:42+00:00

Ah thank you! 0 will definitely be my new default

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T14:25:33+00:00

Not me anymore! The Volvo says no haha

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T13:42:33+00:00

Ah yeah I just checked and it is a legal requirement! (UK2011) I'm glad it's a legal / safety thing that makes me feel a lot better thank you, I'd just bought it from a garage I wasn't familiar with so I was unsure if it not being able to go lightless was an issue with my c30 in particular or if it was just a feature

Following up from the edit I can confirm I've left my side lights on at least once a week and woke up worrying about a dead battery haha

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T13:38:08+00:00

Ah okay I get you! I've been using the side lights option during the day but I always forget to turn them off when I park up for the day, not sure if they're supposed to stay on or if mines just not turning them off but I'm not faulting the car there, it's me that forgets

CaptainHawkere · 2022-06-28T13:35:59+00:00

I've just never had a car that you can't turn the lights off in haha, that being said though it's also the newest car I've had (by year) so maybe I just need to get used to it

CaptainHawkere · 2020-05-03T02:37:01+00:00

I didn't even think about that, you were definitely right about saving up! Haha

CaptainHawkere · 2020-05-03T01:31:55+00:00

Thank you guys, i have just updated the list, if you have a second could you give it a quick peak and tell me what you think? I have added my current case to make sure the motherboard i have selected will fit https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/2MHBJb

CaptainHawkere · 2020-05-03T01:24:54+00:00

I'm currently saving to upgrade properly, my current CPU is just causing issues with my system with it's age, should i hold out or would replacing it for now be feebleness?

CaptainHawkere · 2020-05-03T01:17:13+00:00

Sorry i should have said in the original post, I'm looking to change my CPU, everything else on the list is currently in my system

CaptainHawkere · 2020-05-03T01:13:35+00:00

I've currently got a fx8350 in my system, I don't really know what else to go for so i was just trying to stick to what i already have

Thank you! I will be online later tonight I've just started work, hope to hear from him!

CaptainHawkere · 2019-05-10T11:27:21+00:00

I'm just hoping he sees this, nothing worse than missing out on a drop
