Good to see there's a fair bit of interest, will get onto Clark and see if we can get a price

I've seen a string of pretty funny Tesco mobile tweets but this just takes the cake/biscuit

just noticed them, dropped this blackberry 1 to many times I think! Hehe, seems ironic that as it breaks it gets purple spots on it

Have a look here, this might help http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/56481-kenwood-ddx-4028bt-rear-cam-install-%E2%80%93-superguide/

Not enough to pick up the Jag? Also I was thinking about this. Are you ever actually lifting the full weight of the car when jacking? Surely some of the weight it transferred to the inside/outside/front/back depending on where you lift from.

Also 350th post above ^^^^^ go me

Looks like a pretty good job for £6. Also what's up with your camera, there's some odd black patches/purple marks in the same place on all the photos

Added you to the list as provisional Flexib

Love it. This guys humour is spot on. Went on to read his review of the GT86. Possibly my favourite quote about the car

Posted in group buy, just waiting for approval.

Ill get on that to give us an idea of interest

Just for reference - this the one? http://www.costco.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/cos_8,cos_8.5,cos_8.6.1/107255

Wouldn't know where to ask to be honest. Any tool traders on here?

Wow. how did that not get picked up before they produced it :lol:

Oh yes, I've been following your LS350Z thread. Will have a look

Good to know. Was leaning towards that one as there's a machine mart not far from me

I also have a million blocks of wood of all shapes/sizes which get used for propping up various bits of car never thought to park on them!! The ramps are good temporary solution actually while I decide on what to get. At the moment the 350 I just have to move around the drive until I find a dip that lets me get the jack under and the 106 I have to jack the rear then the front which is annoying if everything you want to get at is at the front

Cheers guys - Will fork out the extra for an Aluminium one then and maybe ask nicely for some shiny new axle stands for Christmas I expect I will be told by this missus this is a boring present but what does she know.

Im looking into getting myself a proper trolley jack since the Halfords jobby that I keep borrowing off my Dad is now too tall to fit under both my 106 and my 350 Happy to spend decent money on one as I know it will get a lot of use but wasn't sure if it was worth going with a light weight aluminium one or a regular (steel?) one. Lightweight would be easier for me as I don't have a garage to work on the car in so it cant just be wheeled over to the car (will be stored in the shed and dragged/carry it across my gravel drive). On the other hand I've read people don't rate the aluminium ones because of their strength? I always use axle stands when I work on my car so the Jack is never the only thing taking the full weight so does that really matter? :wacko: These are the ones I've been looking at at the moment Aluminium Jack 1.8 Tonne http://www.sealey.co...uiredresults=16 2.5 Tonne http://www.sealey.co...uiredresults=16 2 Tonne http://www.clarkeint...nsmission-jacks Steel Jacks 2.5 Tonne http://www.sealey.co...uiredresults=16 2 Tonne http://www.clarkeint...nsmission-jacks Any opinions/advice greatly received.

QFT.

Not the best but here's my attempt at option 1 which I prefer on your car personally. Ignore the white lines, I was being lazy with the editing

I'll spend anything from a couple of hours for just a wash and spay detailer to 6-8 hours for a wash, polish, clay bar, wax, wheel sealer, tyre dressing and cleaning the inside so I think your just as bad as the rest of us

Not keen on that look im afraid, will make the brakes look tiny too. Shove a big brake kit on and you might get away with 20's
