  1. Nope didn't contact, just got the letter when I got in. from 2009-2010 apparently. Is it greedy I want more? lol
  2. Oh heres to add to that then I run 30miles a day to work in total. 15 there and back and whatever driving inbetween, friends, shop whatever... Averagely ill spend currently on fuel about £150-180 on fuel a month. How much is a good estimate of 350 fuel a month for this sort of daily driving?? *expects this to be sky high* ...and yet if im not driving like a hooligan..(all the time ) apparently people gettin 25-30 on cruises? ...don't always have to overtake someone on the way to work lol Wonder what Tranquillbass spends (if you see this, im not being cheeky and nosey lol) cos I see him kickin about in his and i dont think it short distances he does?
  3. Ok, So my car failed its MOT due to wear n' tear ball joint, fracture this n that... still cost me cash to fix it n pass, which digs into my savings to pay my current car off so I can trade the full thing in for a Zed. Rather not put more finance on finance if you know what a mean. so.... what came in today.... "I am pleased to tell you that you are due a repayment of incometax for the year shown above...... A cheque below is attached for the sum of ... £644.97"... BOOYA! Not quite enough to pay it off (£800 more needed, which shouldn't be an issue over a month) but every big bit helps!
  4. Don't worry, I have. Tax... its over a year a couple hundred more for a 300 upwards not gonna kill me. Insurance...I've enquired..its dear... but so is the strippers...and I didn't mind that on my m8s stag Put it this way... I don't get paid a huge wage, I'm not rich... but I don't have any real commitments... so.... have a guess where some of the cash will go AND... ive had a helping hand....via the tax man.. (thread in the OFF TOPIC section) lol
  5. I really want a silver one and failing that... if its a good deal ill go for a grey but, i'm not brave enough for...say... ORANGE lol Still a bit expensive though monthly wise cos i wanna do it over 3 yrs. Sometimes when I look at some of these on the net i just wanna go F%*K IT! and buy one.. and cost myself more money than needed. (did that with the coupe mind you... 5 yrs..never again).
  6. Thank you! I knew it wasnt right lol. It is a classy colour for the zed ill give u tht, i jst like a bit more... Shine lol. Hadnt seen any pics b4 i went to see it so i thought it was azure lol thanks again!
  7. Someone go out and push on there bonnet.... lol
  8. Looked tidy, got to see it without it being valeted first. So as it came... Dusty but thats it. about 33K or something like that on the clock. Amazingly no scrapes on the inside grabs... you know the rubbery feeling ones (aka the only one on the drivers) always have scrapes from rings and stuff... gets on my nerves. Watch what your doing! ... i may buy your car lol . Discs and pads all good, no lips on em really. Tyres seemed ot be good. Just the colour really... bit.. conservative. (says the guy who likes silver but hey...it shines in the sun lol)
  9. Had a look at a 313 Midnight Blue today, not sure about the colour.. doesn't stand out I think. And the white leather looked good but I can't help think...somethings gonna happen to that... lol Guy "said" was traded in for a 370Z, from a guy who works in the oil rigs... is it yours? lol (situated in Livingston Nissan... and quite tidy if I may add! - Also had a private plate on it, assuming that would come off as its prob the new 370 owners lol). One thing that caught my eye thats never done with others ive looked at. the bonnet. Its tight at the front, looked shut properly but... half way up each side looked a bit... up, like it just didn't quite go flush. and when you push on it the bonnet went down slightly. Is this me being paranoid (check next time your out lol). The sides half way between the lamp and window, push on it... does it go down? Or should it be tight and not move at all. Random one I know but... worth asking. Cheers!
  10. Leave it be. Even the crappiest of Zeds attract more of a price than that. Plus, horrendous wheels and ...auto.
  11. Roads are good! Especially on a sunny evening Just watch out depending what bit of road your on, theres some tight corners..and some big drops lol...
  12. +1 to previous comments. You'd go for the 313 (or perhaps 300) -lights -Slightly diff front bumper -INTERIOR (silver makes alllll the difference lol) -Better colours (even the silver looks goood) -Revier engine (I'M TOLD...) lol Just looks newer. The clear lamp 276's starting to look a bit ...old dare I say it. You'd be amazed how subtle changes lift a car...
  13. Yeah a noticed the background seemed a bit...blurry/faded away... in a nice way lol. Just taken with a Samsung Galaxy Ace smartphone thingy.
  14. I've found with most cars (mine included) sit below 3000rpm and it'll keep your fuel nicely. Round about 60mph. Or less at 2 and a half. With the big engine in the Zed i'd assume it'd happily sit at low revs in high gear without much of an effort... And I know I don't have a Zed but trust me...this 2.0 weedy thing has shocking fuel economy for its power. Average...25-30mpg...a good bit less if you want it to be lol Yet a Zed can do this.. just...and its more than double the power
  15. I kinda skimmed the middle pages, so please... forgive me lol. As I see it this post lays out an interesting challenge to anyone who likes to go to things such as...Crail etc lol. A bit of stock 276 v 300 vs 313 would do nicely . I'd be interested in the results as I'm eyeing for a 300 lol. 313 if I'm lucky and the dealer doesn't feel like bumpin; me too much
  16. Two of my favourite things... cars and scenery (what?... I'm old minded for my age ). Very nice!
  17. Very nice, love the discs
  18. Yep there certainly is! You don't even have to go far, there were loads of people out just using their cars and bikes. Saw an F430, 911 GT3, loads of bike groups, TVR classic group of some sort ... and the inevitible knob in an impreza in too much of a hurry lol. I cruised down to Moffat then a bit more get up n' go on the way home
  19. I've got a nice panoramic one...but for some reason it doesn't show
  20. Out a run to Moffat the other night, superb little run.
  21. Shotts turnoff on the M8. The truck behind you before you turned right to go up the hill... I was sitting behind it lol. Looks good in the sun! My m8, who I give a lift to work laughed as immediately upon seeing it, I switched the CD player off lol. Sounds gooood.
  22. Very Nice! I have a question!.... Your stubby aerial... Is it a solid one? Prob gonna be one of the first things I look for when I get mine..well Ill prob order it in time for pick up lol. I did this with my coupe... took the stupidly massive TV tower off and replaced it with a solid metal one. Basically came with a female part and so is the cars... so cut a bit of screw rod down to size to go into the car and the aerial nice n tight. I keep seeing diff ones, whats the best one to get? (metal solid preffered...and that works as an aerial!) lol Cheers for any help!
