  1. Almera owners clubs? There was a joint meet posted in North East that had a heap of Nissan clubs listed including a couple of Almera ones.
  2. has a Zed superstore and is located just outside Perth. It has to be your first port of call! So where is it you reside then? I'm thinking Forfar, Montrose or Laurencekirk.....
  3. I do think the LPG calcs are very flawed as it doesn't take into account running on petrol to warm up etc. This makes it a bit more exensive but savings will still be there. Sometimes you have to buy a car that is more sensible for whatever reason. Running costs, number of seats, amount of finance, boot space.... so on so on. It's life and it's part of what being a 'grown up' is all about.

    19"/20" Wheels

    Maybe it'd help if you described what you're looking for.
  5. I'd go 360 challenge stradale over 430 scuderia i think. Choice of any modern Ferrari and I'd probably take a 599 though! The 355 is still the best looking V8 Ferrari I can think of and would have to 'up there' on my wishlist though.
  6. Maybe extra urban but I doubt it would get that in the real world on a combined cycle. Loads of options out there at that money. As usual though I'd go Japanese.
  7. Maybe didn't correct the pressure to take into consideration the load? Agree though, tyres will have to be good!
  8. I'm sorry to hear about the bad turn Stephen. It's a tough time for everyone around your dad I'm sure. I honestly don't know what else to say just now.....
  9. Plenum spacers and a good intake / exhaust combo work well. I'd look at these first!
  10. Over 35mpg you might struggle with a decent sized 4x4. Something like a CRV might meet your requirements though.
  11. The 355 is still looking fresh today in my opinion and is still one of the most beautiful cars in my lifetime I think. We need more pics Dave!

    My new shed!

    I'm sure it was a joke. A shed can't be more than 2k. It's the rules!
  13. The Scottish Government is lobbying westminster just now to cap the price of petrol. The fuel duty would vary depending on the oil price. They reckon it won't affect the net amount taken in by the government however I'm unsure how good the Scottish Goverment is at maths....
  14. I wear pink all the time. I like it and that makes me more manly than those that won't wear it. I'd drive a car that. As has been said I'd prefer it without the pink paint but leaving the wheels pink. It's cool! I have those skirts on my car, discontinued now unfortunately. I'd accept offers though!
  15. Probably Nom Nom Nom after biting your hand off!
  16. I worked at a petrol station and some of them used to shoplift something chronic even the wee kids. I wasn't going to challenge them over it though. To be honest a lot of them were perfectly nice and polite. We had more trouble with 'toonsers' that were total scumbags to be honest. The money they had in their pockets! And the car deals..... They used to meet people and buy £10k vans and £20k cars in readies.
  17. As I said the first time I saw that - They are missing 'issued from Shell PR dept.' at the bottom of it. The small profit on the price of fuel at the pump goes to the petrol station owner.
  18. Sensible option I think. Generally cats don't like citrus either so putting lemon peels or something round the car might help too.
  19. As someone who is currently organising a wedding I must say I'm inspired. My future wife however doesn't share my affection for traveller chic....
  20. I'm a simple man. All that goes through my head is cars, motorbikes, girls, beer, other things with motors and wheels and finally gadgets. That's about it.
  21. Jt1703 got a pearlescent white wrap. Looks great! I'd go for something different if I could, Have a search for David Yu's GTR. It's wrapped metallic purple and it looks awesome. in fact To me, that looks AWESOME!
  22. Most 350Zs would be worth bout 10k so I guess that's the deposit!
  23. My mate bought that car (with the wrap removed) It was black underneath and ended up doing the wheels and exhaust black. Looked ace. http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/s ... =batmobile That was it after our mate Clark got his hands on it. edit - I lied, the exhaust tips were done black on the superleggera he bought afterwards. My bad!
