  1. Awesome news Chris. Congratulations to you and your now growing family. All the very best for the future
  2. Something for the weekend Sir? http://hooniverse.com/2012/04/20/fastback-friday-porsche-911-bbq/
  3. Type LED bulbs in to ebay search, and there are loads that come up. In the description section it takes you to the home pages with all the info on including the info on the resistors
  4. Looks like you had a great time, thats the way to do it
  5. I would love to, but time & money are the key factors here. I need the liquidate as much as possible before the big move. But your right enough, I am still having some fun with it!! Saw a left Hand drive Cosworth on EBay for £24k yesterday!!
  6. Hi all As some of you will know, there are a lot of changes afoot for me, notably a move to Canada in hopefully the not too distant future. As part of these plans I quit my job last week and as such the company car went. This led me in to a bit of a dilemma which involved me having to buy a car, for the first time in some years. It had to be functional and sellable (quickly) and above all cheap!! So after much research I picked this up from Scotland on Saturday, I have been cleaning it ever since I interred .........the "SHED ZONE" Mercedes Benz 190e Finished in White 106k T&T'd until September Everything works on it too! It evan has all the tools & safety equipment & the first aid kit & loads of history £500 - Bargin!! Snow foam first, to see what's what! In not too bad nick, a few scabs here and there, but the paint finish was "matt" to say the least. So a full day with Autoglym's paint restorer & the two coats of Autoglym polish resin stuff! Day two: The interior was minging. There where some very suspect stains in there too. I was reminded of the Top Gear episode when they did a CSI on some old cars they bought Took all the seats out, and hoovered first. Then used a household stain remover, then a Turtle Wax carpet shampoo, finally re hoovered. Quite pleased with the results TBH. Tackled the boot yesterday. Some dampness in there to be sorted, as the spare wheel (with a brand new tyre on!) was very rusty as was the tool kit. So cleaned it all out and refurbished the wheel (a bit not OTT) and the tools. Not a nice job but pleased its now done Sorry about the picture quality, only had the iphone on me
  7. This thread may help you with the servicing question. As for the recall issue try another dealer if you are getting no where with yours http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=169&t=51586
  8. God damn it you beat me to this one.... I took my wife up the Oxo Tower for her birthday, but i think on refelction, she would have preferred flowers.......... I thank you...
  9. A Gentleman would never were brown using the old maxim "Never brown in town!" Now if you were were country apparel i.e. a nice tweed number, that would be different. For future fashion advice please click the link below. http://www.thechap.net/
  10. Great pics Will, they have a pleasantly surreal quality to them!
  11. Saw a lovely 370Z (private plate) on the M6 southbound around 4:30 yesterday
  12. There has been a fair bit discussed on the subject. Enjoy!! http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=39229&p=852597&hilit=showroom+shine#p852597
  13. Why was the sign in English not French/Flemish ? Great VT though
  14. Im in the same boat... and I agree... +1 I was recently approached and I went along to a recruitment evening. It was quite nice, like going back in time 120 years. But I just felt it was something your dad would do and I am not quite grown up enough just yet!
  15. They were originally, as they were based on a lotus esprit chasis, but for some unknown reason they raised the front end of them just before it was launched, which totally screwed up the handling. A lot of owners drop the front end back to how it was designed originally. Performance wise, they are slow as my lawn mower as they are quite underpowered. I think its something like 150hp for European models and 130hp for US models with all the extra anti pollution control on them. Renault V6 I believe
  16. Good job Paul so Pleased you got sorted its been a long road for you
  17. Waiting for my wife to finish straightening her hair, hopfully before Homeland starts
  18. Hmm, I think the TT is solely feminine. UNLESS... its a TTS 272 or the RS, the extra aggressive bumpers help, but the boggo standard TT with the basic small 5 star wheels looks... well actually rubbish lol It looks as if its aged already. lol Yes I think the New TT is less girly than the first one, and the TTS is more aggressive. The S3 would have been the chaps choice between the standard TT and S3 IMO The Zed is a blokes car, which my wife aggees with. She would rather have a Zed than a TT though
  19. Its been a long old road. deap breath. Good luck
  20. Classic line, tea has just come out of my nose

  22. If I was staying in the UK I would buy this in a heart beat. Now a very rare car and would be great to own http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3791689.htm
  23. I heard of this in Jan this year, a word of warning, the parts are not supposed to be any cheaper than you can get at a local dealer, but it will certainly make life easier, if you dont have the time! But we will see maybe they will change their minds, it also help dispose of part obeisance
