Cayman update

WazzerM · **Posted:** Mon Apr 29, 2013 10:53 pm

For those who were interested it looks like we've worked around the legal route (just) having agreed (reluctantly) to share the cost of an engine rebuild / fix. Yep, it's gonna cost us a few quid but when we came close to handing back our Cayman we realised that losing the car wasn't what we wanted. We'll come out of it with a dent in our pocket but with a car that'll be better and more future proof than before as JMG will be doing the work and taking her on their maintenance plan (we hope). The legal route ain't entirely ruled out should it not work out but we don't anticipate needing it.

We look forward to having her back on the road with a full compliment of frunk capacity (ie. no 5ltr oil can in there!!!)

Cheers to all those who chipped in!

Glad you've reached an agreement, the legal route has only one winner sadly.

Feel for you having a bill like that.

Glad to hear you're making progress, shame its costing you, but at least the job will be getting done properly at JMG

Yeah, and we'll be one of the first in their new premises (if I can find it!)

lots of folk on here happy to purchase all that oil you've been stockpiling Wayne :wink:

Glad to hear you're staying with the Cayman and I know you are going to get lots of enjoyment from it

Good to hear you making progress.

Right, she's at JMG's new place. I look forward, in 3-5 weeks time, to letting her loose on some oh so very long roads (just need to start saving up!)

Hi Wazzer
For some reason I haven't received any forum updates? same happened a few weeks ago but I thought it had been resolved.
Anyway, its good to hear there's now a light at the end of the tunnel and the Cayman will be back to its former glory in a few weeks time.
I'm sure JMG will do a fantastic job and the nightmare of the last few months will be a distant memory!...................the good weather is on its way!

Good luck and keep us posted.

John

John I removed the post as things were getting a bit dirty. Yeah, just a few weeks to go - though a few quid down

Hi Wazzer,

Sounds like you have had a rough time. What was the problem?
Glad to hear the problem is getting sorted now mate.

Not long now until my bores are no longer scored. Forgotten what she looks like!
