Ah, I'm still finishing my thesis for my Masters (due in September) then I am going to start on my Career Appraisal! Been in the industry since 1999!!! Makes me feel old when I think I have been working for 11 years! I'm only 27!!!

Are you a civils too? Hi

There is also the issue of floatation!

As a civil engineer, floatation is most commonly overlooked. You dig a big hole and make it waterproof, then when the surrounding ground water level rises, if a floatation design has not been undertaken the whole thing could effectively pop out of the ground. Seen it happen with empty swimming pools!!!

Make sure you get a chartered civil engineer to do a design for you!

(not pimping out my services here as i'm not yet chartered, 1 year to go for me )

Oh my word!!!!!!!!

we just got back from driving to france to go camping!

We stayed in a place called Le Brevedent and it was just south of La Havre. Beautiful campsite and well worth a visit!

check out the camping and caravan club for recommendations, there is loads of sites over there

Hey juggy! Hows things?

Have any of you guys had this?

A zed friend of mine just replaced his rear axle but my hubby read somewhere that it just needs a certain type of grease!

Any suggestions people?

Mine does this....noticed it straight away grrr

but then i am a fully pledged member of the OCD anonomous!

I just put it down to the hard suspension!

OK so i have seen a lovely blue 350z Coupe driving round Burton on Trent for about 2 months now.

Who are you?

I just picked up my 350z Roadster and wanted to say Hi!

Wow that's some seriously sexy welding!

Has a Mini Cooper S previously and it was a bag of nails! My recently sold Suzuki Swift Sport kicked its ass, was really nipp and was way more practical!

My next car will probably be really boring and be able to take baby seats...... stoopid babies!!!

In my dream land though it would be a TVR Tuscan....man those things are just pure orgasm! sigh!

Think mine pics and chooses when it locks..... i have on occasion witness it autolock, but i left it unlocked by accident when shopping in m'boro last weekend and it remained open for 3hrs.......... still not sure why or how it wasn't stolen, set alight or defecated in/on...?

You were seriously lucky there, I'm originally a monkey hanger so I know what its like round the boro!

Also he has asked me to get the "numbers" for the key, I presume that is some kind of programming?

Yes the code should be written in your service manual somewhere!

Thats a great link!

Wooo i am now a 350z owner! Get to pick the car up next saturday! Very very excited!

This is good to know, thanks

My insurance is due to go up from 300 a year to 600+ when i get my zed! never mind eh?

Haha this is a great thread!

Check with the camp site. some will allow you to post it over there to them and then post it back after! then you just pack light with everything else!

Edited to say: the tent of course!

go take it out and you will either still be undecided afterwards, in which case dont do it, or you will know for certain!

Parkers says 25mpg so i reakon with it would do 30mpg easily

Definately go for it!

I am going to look at a convertable on saturday....hopefully going to buy it
