Will370z

Very nice, congratulations

I would have made a scene in the showroom making it clear to other customers what the place was like and taken my money elsewhere. God if thats their attitude when they are trying to be nice and sell you a car just imagine what they would be likeif you had bought it and found a problem and taken it back for them to fix. Id go elsewhere.

Congrats on the purchase, pm 4releather im sure he will be able to advise as to what you can do to fix the leather

They will be sticking those in the tate modern stew, nice work lol

Think on the bright side, at least with your car the water filters outwards, on my old roadster it used to filter in and soak the passneger footwell

Keep up the good work, must pop down one day and check out the green beast in person.

Car looks and sounds great, bet you had a fun evening there

Not me honest gov

Looks great as it is mate, but of those colours gold seems to go rather well. Wouldnt go for dark wheels as they get drowned out at the rear

Welcome to the club, good choice for a 370z you will love it good luck on the hunt. Wow hey, i gave that drug up years ago. Was an awesome game though, some epic moments. Now guild wars 2 is just around the corner to get me addicted to mmorgs again

Im really liking those photos, watch out guys i can see we will have a calendar contender here

Welcome to the forum and good luck with the car hunt

Updated original post with more info. One thing and this is most probably bleedin obvious but if you do go down the contracting route make sure you get advice on how best to minimise tax. It makes a huge difference.

Its a tricky one, the safety of a fixed income at a guaranteed place of work is nice and safe but its not going to earn you the big bucks unless you own the place. The contracting is bigger risk but bigger rewards. I've got friends who have moved into contracting for the money then others who have moved out of contracting because they never felt any ownership sense of pride for the work or projects they undertook as its a mentality of get one job done move to the next. Some have left for this, some wanted more security. Others stay because they love the cash. I guess if i was in your boat i'd make a list of pros and cons. see which wins. Then consider the risks more, is this likely to be a one off job, what if no subsequent contracts come through, could i easily get a permanent job again. If you can take the risk and have a back up plan if it goes wrong in the worsst case scenario then you have at least prepared yourself. Saying all that im a firm believer in the fact that you only get one shot in this life so don't waste it, if an opportunity comes up you should take it (addmittedly difficult if you have other responsibilities and ties). If you dont you may alwasy look back and wonder what if.... and thats never fun. 7 years ago i had to make a similar ish decision but the other way around. I was in a well paid job but hated it. I really wanted to change but risked giving up a fantastic career, great money but hating what i did. I saw an old chap sat on the tube who was looking at me and i thought, if that was me in the future looking back at me now would i think " i wish i had done something different". So i did, i quit my job and went back to uni to start again and do something i really liked. Yes it wasnt fun having no money for a while, and all my friends continued to progress and buy nice houses, cars etc but in all honesty it was the best decision i've ever made. It was a risk but it paid off and now i love what i do. You only live once, dont waste it i say.

Happy birthday

Congratulations

Totally agree, i like the look but those back lights just dont do it for me. Sat in one at goodwood, Very comfortable inside too, even for one of my size.

See neos post that got in just before yours

Looks like that rear spoiler could do with some viagra

Sounds perfectly normal to me. Mine did it but we can have a listen on saturday to check.
