Just over 130mm, I’d be getting worried if it was lowered. I need the clearance as it’s my day to day car. 

Happy with the splitter, looks great & I can get on & off the drive. Ready for some sunny days now. 

There's a thread you might wanna look into. 

As far as 12k budget goes.. as long as it's been fully serviced and if you can get an extended warranty, I wouldn't be fussed about the mileage. I got mine with 40k miles, now 56k and it's sound Managed to get 3 years warranty as well (my car is 62 plate) so nothing to worry about. 
Insurance.. call, don't bother with online quotes much, 90% of the time it's cheaper to call. Adrian Flux, Chris Knott, Sky Insurance they seem to be popular options.

One from Sunday. Trip to Betws-Y-Coed and Conwy.

Another minor update, took the wheels to Lucas for us to work out why the 73.1mm spigots wouldn't fit. We tried a few different ones but none of them would go in which was a bit of a concern. Lucas's verniers wouldn't go inside the wheel so I headed home and found a local place that @Mark-in-Stoke had recommended a while back. I explained the situation and before I could finish he came back with a set of 73.1mm spigots and put one in right in front of me. I was surprised to say the least! I think that due to being sprayed a couple of times there was build up on the inside of the bore and that was stopping the metal Rays ones from fitting. I got some sandpaper and rubbed down the inside of the wheels and then the rest went straight in, no bother. 

Just to give some feedback, I'm pretty impressed with this. 
Even though it is half the weight of OEM, the shifts feel better as the shape of the knob is such that you naturally have more leverage when changing gear. You can also feel a bit more of what's happening with the gear change when sliding changes home.

Delivered already! Fitted at lunchtime, looks good.

Slowly but surely! Looking nice! I rate the tinted fog light haha 

Right then, now this threads back open I best update it.
My wife is a legend and bought me a Cobra resonated cat back for Christmas. I'd been waiting to sort insurance before putting it on, and now that's sorted it was time to get on with the install. Props to Chris Knott Insurance for making no extra charge for adding the exhaust, that was a pleasant surprise. 
So the car went on the ramp and I was anticipating the OEM exhaust to be a troublesome so and so to remove. To my surprise it came away easily, and it wasn't long before we'd got the Cobra in its place. The fit was absolutely spot on with no adjustments needed at all; I'd say the whole thing was done in 40-45 minutes. 



 
First fire up was lovely. Not too loud but a definite change to the exhaust note. Much bassier, with a little bit of pop on over run. It's much better now it's coked up and settled in, far quieter, though cold starts are still a bit fruity and not so good for my neighbours! Motorway journeys aren't uncomfortable despite the slight increase in noise. I do wish there was a little bit more snarl to the note from the cabin, but on balance I think it's a good compromise between being OTT and too quiet. Noticed a bit more urgency throughout the rev range, especially at the low end but I wouldn't say it's added a load of power. Couple of extra brake always helps though.  
 
Also since where I work we have a theatre space, we have coloured gels for putting in the stage lights. I came across some unusual gel offcuts in that it was a 'smoke' colour. So, I took a piece and offered it up to the reverse/fog light to see what it would look like. Much better. To my surprise despite not being held in place with any adhesive it's not moved and doesn't look like it's going to fall out any time soon either. If it does though I know that I definitely need to get it tinted, I think it looks much better. 

 
In other news, my CE28's have been sent off for refurb/respray. I managed to pick up some fresh stickers and cheap centre caps off Aliexpress for when they come back (hopefully tomorrow) and picked up some temporary rubber off another forum user. Just need to double check the bore measurements and then order some spigots and nuts from @Lucas@PartBox and then I can think about getting the springs swapped, wheels put on, camber bolts in and getting the alignment done. It's slowly getting there.
