  1. Not sure Will, we had a mini meet the other weekend... I think Darren was talking about something early in February wasn't he? So when are you getting your upRev
  2. We will have to get a bigger venue for Surrey meets soon...
  3. lol dont worry man, it annoyed me for about a year and a half. i got it tight from all the boys when i posted this up And quite rightly so
  4. Thanks Greg, top man I checked the fluid when the light first came on... I have absolutely no technical knowledge I am just hoping that maybe something is loose or covered in crap...
  5. out of curiosity, are you related to Liz Vicious? eh, no, sorry to disappoint but not related. dont be sorry... be happy! thanx, she's a bit well, less said the better, whatever floats guys boats and all that, good on her but it wouldn't be me. i aint in my teens, ginger (and would like to point out that red heads are fine and many of my mates are of the red headed type) and don't get my bits out on the tinternet! UNABASHED is this what does it for you honey??? tut tut tut will be interesting to see if Stu sees this and rushes to my aid! hee hee!! na! he knows i can give as good as i get!! xxx p.s i can see this getting shafted to the green room........... I think the Green Room is the best place for shafting...
  6. Cheers Alex... if only I knew where the Control Unit was Haven't had any lights since Friday and used the car everyday... very strange
  7. If you are not going to change the exhaust I would maybe go for a Pop Charger, it will loose you a tiny amount of performance but sounds fantastic I have heard the 'prob not going to do much' thing so many times on here... isn't that right Graham
  8. I was tempted, I have a lot of CF on the interior but decided that is where it will stay, not going to put any exterior bits on. Trouble is where do you stop? If you put the Mirror covers and pillar covers then the door handles will look odd...
  9. Sounds good to me I just had an upRev last Friday, had the car a year and done all the bits I wanted to. My only advice would be don't rush to get the upRev done straight away, get the car how you want it first, intake & exhaust and then get it done Personally I wouldn't get it done straight away as you will maybe not appreciate it It's well worth getting done though, car feels so different Hope to see you at our next meet up
  10. Don't tell him, he is a stalker too late Just don't show him anything shiny and you should be ok... So what have you got on order from Abbey
  11. Welcome and congratulations on buying the right colour Zed The Surrey area seems to be good for meets and lots of friendly owners, they let me tag along even though I am an outsider
  12. Thought I would post this in case someone else has had the problem... Anyone know of the positions of the sensors, maybe just something has come loose as the problem is only intermittent... ABS, TC & Slip light all come on and when Mark @ Abbey ran the code it was C1142, he hasn't seen it before and googling has only shown up a couple of links all a bit vague...
  13. I might print him off this thread tonight at work... don't like him much anyway Might not print this last post though
  14. To be fair I think you got a very very bad one and he seems to have got a decent one It just reminded me when he said about it...
  15. No Ooops blown my cover Don't worry I am a lurker not a stalker
  16. As Neil says I would do a search on here you will find lots of bad fitting posts... you get what you pay for
  17. Got to love all that torque though I think the interior is ok, although the elephant hide is a bit hard and nasty
  18. Really hard to tell listening to them on the net... Personally I would hang fire until you hear some in the flesh, unless the back box is actually hanging off
  19. He said he quite literally filled his pants thought he had killed it
  20. Congratulations... Hope all works out well Orange is not my colour either but as long as you love it don't worry about what anyone else thinks On another note you are just round the corner from me I'm in Mottingham
  21. That's not bad, have you looked at a Scorpion? You might want to wait and get a complete system with a Y Pipe too as that gives the best results overall Personally from what I have seen / heard Japspeed stuff is the bottom end of the market and a Zed deserves a bit better
  22. lol no one is cool with the kids here unlike CS . 25mpg is about right. I get about 29mpg but at drive at night at 50mph on the duel carrige way but round town and a little bit of 50mph mixed in 25mpg sounds right. Without starting another war IMO its worth it to fill up with 99ron as you will get noticebly better mpg. How you going to drive it as in id imagine its your daily but on motorway, round town or both? Who were you on CS? I'd use it as a daily. So 20 mile commute each day. Done fully on B roads. My M3 used to average 26mpg on that route so i hope the Z will do roughly the same. Should be about the same, depends on how much other traffic there is on the B Roads My commute is 18 miles each way and I average about that, but mine is all dual carriageway and motorway but it does include the Dartford Tunnel
  23. Sorry for some to drag this thread back up.... But a conversation at work last night reminded me of it... One of the guys Dad's has an almost new XF, which to be fair he loves and has not had a problem with... until my friend updated the firmware on his iPod, got in the car, started it up put light on etc and while it was idling plugged his iPod in... and... the whole car died Apparently the AA were called and something was reset and all is good but what a brown trouser moment in your Dad's expensive new pride and joy
