Mrzed

Don't they just tick you off, got the same issue, high blood pressure due to a congenital heart condition I was born with and didn't find out about untill I was 43 and having a medical for emigration. BTW got the papers after full examination with physical health classified as A1. Not an issue, but get the same old irritation, blood test, I can go anywhere, three local hospitals or another surgery but that ain't the issue. I suffer with "WHITE COAT SYNDROME" which means hospitals, doctors surgery's, ambulances and especially doctors make me so anxious I could run a mile and therefore by disposition creates high BP reading so they kindly let me do mine at home and send em in. Saves grabbing the doctor by the throat and swinging him around. But blood tests I avoid and after a certain amount of avoidance asked the doctor if it was a legal requirement..afterall my arm, my blood and my permission at which point they gave me a disclaimer form to sign which absolves them from liability for the 12 months at a time as I consider that I feel great and have no issue...which I don't. Suits me. The more they dig the more they will find wrong with you and if it's so so important why don't they force every single one of us in the country to have these tests and then they can label us all can't they. Up untill the emigration medical I hadn't seen a doctor for any sort illness other than chicken pox since I was fifteen years of age and that was for a jab to go abroad. Then all of a sudden they are interested because they can peddle me some drugs and get bags of cash from the government and the pharmaceutical guys. Seriously you may think what are you whining about but what results would we get if the whole nation was forced to have a full spectrum bloodtest???? Why am I so special?? Excuse the rant... CRAP......ME BLOOD PRESSURE JUST SHOT UP.........MEDIC!!!!!!!

I've been looking for one of these for a long time without success but after seeing the price I think I can do without......I never realised they came at that sort of cost but could never find a dealer who could get me one. Too rich for my blood if it comes down a bit pm me but I think you have some gold dust there!!!!

Graphite grey looks really good, but dependent on the car colour, lucky enough to work for a wheel manufacturer who supplies OEM's and see the whole spectrum of colours especially for the footballer aftermarket specialisations. Sometimes it's the depth of finish and lustre that give the effect, my car is a 2008 and the wheels didn't need doing but had them refinished with plenty of lacquer to give that deep shine??

Leave him be....old wives tale... "Let a spider run alive and you surely live and thrive" I got one too!!!

Christ.....how many tyres to the gallon...?? Ive had a set of Michelins on my Honda that have done 38k and still no where near need replacing especially the rears..(Front Wheel Driver) of course but still 4.5mm on the fronts!!!

Well, advice please !! My zed just completed 9000miles from new on its original Bridgestones and to fair they can now officially pass for slicks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only 9k out of a set of Bridges, might push a few more miles out the fronts but seriously guys is this normal??? Any body got a clue where the best price for this item is, also most websites denote a (DZ) or (TZ) code or TL don't know what this means so any enlightenment would be much appreciated.....any good fitters,suppliers.etc.

Hey, Swirly remover, what sort of cost for a job like that??? I have Pearl Graphite Honda Accord Type S that could use some tarting up. I can polish, but geeze that's a good job.

Sorry to say been around long enough and it's not the first time I've seen it. Organised via Blackberry threads and mailshots...grim. Devil finds work for idle hands but it's an indicator of deep seated unrest in the UK, especially amongst the young ....sad ....no horizon for us let alone them. A sign of the times, financial gloom and policy that still falls on the side of the well off.

Poor connection, bad earth, when you get em out wiggle the bulb holders around a little before dismantling

Had the same decision, buckled and went for the 313GT, couldn't resist the bonnet bulge

Welcome !!!

I use BMW's own, it's real good, keeps them in tip top condition and specially formulated to keep that new car smell.......it works, I promise. Not cheap but not expensive either compared to the other stuff on the market.

Welcome I too am a Honda fan, got a Type S Accord which I have to add has been a absolutely superb piece of kit. Had it two years and put 40k on her and only replaced pads front and rear and had a couple of services. Use her for my everyday and love it. Hope you get a zed soon, they are addictive, you will not be dissappointed!!!

This may be a sensitive question but.........Are you a Policeman????

They **** me off too...just another tax on the motorist and all designed to catch you out. You set your cruise control and the next gantry the speed limit changes and you end up hitting the anchors at the last second to scrub of the mph. Just a nightmare. If the gantry has a camera mounted rear facing to the posted speed limit electronic display you will also notice lines incrementally laid out on the road behind the gantry if you are above the posted limit you will be snapped but think the rules regarding this are 10% and above the limit for prosecution....they are the most incideous form of law enforcement sold under the premice of road safety. I feel your anxiety. not like the old days when you used to get chased by a Jam sandwich..... at least there was a little sport attached to it

mmmmmm!!!! Nice .....How many steak horse power

I bought the exact same car only 2008 in March only difference mine has the rear park distance sensors and only 7.5k on the clock and bought it from a Nissan main agent.... I paid £16k and it came with 12 months road tax MOT and a bit of a warranty and Gap Insurance thown in for less than half price. So judge for yourself, I think they can command the price when they are this low mileage but you can beat him down a little I think....give it a go!!!

Curtains, pies, Lidle, who gives a crap now.....we have a result, the big guy is remaining in the fold. I prayed for the Lord to deliver his soul from the sale of his 350 and sweet God answered. He 's staying!!! It is one of the forums best pieces of work this week. Meanwhile back at the ranch guys, my misses has been looking at carpets.....Prey for me ...PLEASE!!!!!! who knows what lies ahead, she will be wanting holidays, hot water and the heating on winter and one of those new fangled automatic washing machines....HELP!! I prefer my work shirts beaten on a rock in the nearby river....

It's only 350Z he ain't got....toss pot, they are just the kind of blokes you love ....you know the type.. the ones that drink in Weatherspoons in the afternoon wearing Adidas tracksuits and brown brogues telling everone how they would put things right if they were in charge of the country. God Save Us From the Grunt!

Could you tell me where to get one of those fly's for the pan!!! Make a great xmas gift for the wife.

She ain't getting anymore curtains...learnt my lesson

ebay.com ...USA might find a better deal http://cgi.ebay.com/NISSAN-350z-Z33-03- ... 415bc1d15e http://cgi.ebay.com/NISSAN-350Z-FRONT-G ... 3cb4fea694

It's a issue we all have to face sometimes, what price your enjoyment??? You really got to be enthusiastic to run a big engine nowadays, I can at times remember myself having to sell my pride and joy because the misses wanted something frivellous like...mmmm.. what was it now... oh yes! curtains!! and a toilet that flushed and bed linen and a washing machine..!!!!! I gotta tell ya them things couldn't hold a candle to my dear old Pontaic, I wept when she went down the road...I wept even more when I bought the curtains. But all said and done a blokes gotta do what a blokes gotta do to keep the wolves from the door better to have nothing and be debt free than have a yard full of metal with no money for petrol. Sometimes it sharpens the interest in something else.

Intrigued about the illuminated z emblem......I like it but can I ask where it goes??? location ???

Mr Miagghi......great bloke ....POLISH ON!!! POLISH OFF!!! JEEEEEZ I must be a black belt by now.
