The G Man

2013

I like the colour Agreed, it's not a looker

:lol: That's the funniest thing I've ever read What a laughing stock, he's a cluster of the first degree, brilliant hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahha! This is feckin great. The other woman that couldn't handle a bit of flack, leadsom?!? Environment hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahha! Loving Theresa May, class act, c'mon the Ming the Mercilesses' @Randy_Baton, I'm surprised that map isn't all red, man, this is priceless

Throwing this in the mix http://www.goodhousekeeping.co.uk/news/james-martin-top-gear-host My fav site, for the record

If we didn't need a 5 door hatchback for running the messages (Scottish, look it up), which I bought last month for my good lady, a good part of that £21k would have went on this, what a looker Chris!! GLWTS

Is it not ? Nismo doesn't have fangs, it's also got trim round the wheel arches, the bloke ^^ there got it right.

It's not a Nismo

I've mostly stayed out of this debate because of the abuse and provocation I received from the Scottish referendum debate, and, while most of the comments against my arguments were diatribe, it just isn't worth the hassle from the usual suspects (you know who you are), on this debate. I wore my heart on my sleeve and wasn't afraid to stand up for what I believe in. But I must say, and it PAINS ME GREATLY, Adrian and latterly -G-, have presented the most eloquent and thought provoking arguments and FACTS so far. Dust will settle, but the average Brexit leave voter, IMO, had no idea what they were voting for. The Brexit Brigade had no idea what they stood for, immigration, not immigration, better laws for workers, more jobs for Brits blah blah blah!! As Bockaaark posted, where's the 'right, we won, here's how it's going to work' £350 million a week, pales into insignificance compared to the BoE's £250 billion straight away!! to allay the markets, what a crock of sh1te, the mostly uninformed leave voters backed, IMHO. Well done Adrian and -G-,

Actually, from my RX8, 370 GT, 370 Nismo, putting them back to stock was a pleasurable experience, no purgatory, just a pleasant change. It actually, on all three occasions, nearly made me change my mind and keep the respective cars. They're not that bad stock, just slightly better with a pen aftermarket on, probably just massages the ego rather than making any of them fire breathing monsters. Once you get the *** * ****, it'll be interesting to see if you change the exhaust, given the similarities.

Try Asda, no kidding, their prices are very competitive, that's where I'll be looking once my P Zero pieces of @*!# are line locked into history

Don't think it cost me that much when I bought it new Good luck with the sale

This is true, David Attenborough told me himself

No mate, I own the house next door, one of my daughters lives in it . Had a neighbours lad, 24 year old, round tonight to have a good gawp, took him for a wee cabbie

, thanks Humpy, someone has already used that phrase

Update on some additions, FRPP Track Suspension, 23MM rear, 25mm front spacers, Big Worm Graphics Super Snake stripe and side GT Stripe, Diode Dynamic LED Rear Side Marker Lights, Steeda Bonnet Struts all fitted in the last couple of days. Geometry done by Automek, full fast road set up. Some pics Before After

Oh yeah the motorist

We need a Donald Trump Well, some well considered arguments in this discussion, mostly by the 'in' crowd. But the voting in the poll would suggest that the 'UKIPers' amongst us would win the argument if that was replicated nationwide. However, my thought on that is that as a car community, it is almost inconceivable that our swing wouldn't be right of centre. Hopefully, the electorate of the south, will see more sense and vote 'in'. It's probably the only thing that's going to stop the Tories from continuing to rob pension funds, be that state or occupational. Secretly, well not a secret anymore , I hope the UKIP trend continues in the south, just the tipping point to create the wake up needed to constitute a radical UK rethink (waits for the anti Scottish Nationalist flaming, subsidy junky nonsense ) Whatever happens, the idea that the UK will return to a 'jumpers for goalposts' society will never happen.

You're welcome

Half the price though Keep us informed

I've had two 370s, one a GT and one a Mk1 Nismo. What a lot of people don't realise on here with regards to the Mk1, is the suspension set up. Superior in every way to the GT, a different class over a 350. I did some basic suspension mods to my GT, a set of Eibach Pro's, had an Akropovic Evo true dual exhaust, was UpRevved, but the Nismo would smash it all day long on twisties, fact. (Ask Gstraw on here, he couldn't believe it when I gave him a cabbie, he has a 370 GT) You will get a lot of negative opinion about a Nismo on here, from some that have never even driven one, never mind owned one. The servicing on a 370 is inexpensive. As a track car, I've no idea, but if it's mostly for track, get a stripped out MX 5 like Ekona has, you'll have more fun. As Ebized has said, as for a fast, fun and well equipped GT, it's in a good price bracket. One or two things about a 370, the road noise is pretty bad, not enough steering wheel adjustment (only up or down, no in or out) and my Mrs always complained that, as a passenger, it wasn't the most comfortable of, erm, rides It is a looker, gets loads of compliments and attention and the equipment level is very good. I've no real idea on a Porsche or TT RS, no doubt very capable cars, for me, now a 'redneck', they both have an image problem in my eyes. The Audi, because the company that produces them are cheating bast3rds, and the Porsche, if not the right one, is a wannabe statement. You won't wring a lot of extra oomph from a 370 without spending serious cash and going FI, but as was mentioned, unless you're getting one really cheap, it might be the wrong car if you require that level of power. Anyway, good luck in your search, buy one off a club member, it'll be looked after and not at a dealer premium.

There was a nice Mk1 on here recently for a fiver under £25k

Absolutely, the FRPP Track Pack takes it down an inch or so, having a couple of other bits fitted to suit the pack and a 'fast road' geometry set up, sway bars set to the softest to start with Lustre Nickel is this seasons new black

The convertible, if you were to get another one, is a stunner with the roof down, just get one will, it's a no brainier for the money , and, next year for 2017 registered cars, the VED is cheaper

Unfortunately he got the "Custom pack" which is why the wheels and window trim are silver/chrome, shame really as they look very aggressive in black - but it's not my car so I'm glad OP got what he wanted Still insanely jealous, over a year away from placing my order still -.- Not unfortunate mate, it's what I chose . I don't mind darker wheels, the Nismo wheels were a lovely colour, not too dark. Black wheels is something I've never been keen on. It's an individual thing I will be adding the odd, darker accent soonish and getting the plastic splitter, sills and rear diffuser painted, just matte black nothing too abnormal. I'll post pictures as soon as I get the Track Pack on, just waiting on some front camber bolts at the mo
