Welcome aboard!

Great result! It would be interesting to know what had happened to the engine as it sounds (hopefully) a rare case

Saw him at this years Reading, without too much knowledge of who he was to be fair and loved his presence and music. My whole house is converted. Might see if I can get tickets!

Its absolutely awful news; I'm a Manchester United fan and much like McAllister & Scholes, Speed was one of those players who got on with it, was incredibly talented, intelligent, pleasant and a great man. He seemed to have everything going for him and indeed heading in the right direction. RIP Gary and my thoughts go out to you and your family.

Interested in seeing your pictures Darren, my seats are like new thankfully but my brothers RX-8 needs a few cuddles in that department

Welcome aboard! I'm sure you'll love her!

Good review, intelligently written and pretty much covers what I've always thought about the olde oil burners.

Welcome, choose any year, I'd always take a mint 04 over a ropy 08 and a good 08 over a good 04 - you'll know when you find one, thankfully mine was the first one but I'd advise on looking at a few.

Had a few looks, the first was people thinking me and my girlfriend were probably a little balmy, it was day 1 of getting her and driving back so were on a natural high anyway, we had the iPod and BOSE really loud and were singing along like two idiots, a few people went passed laughing. I've also had alot of passengers and little kids waving at us so they've always had a wave back. I do love this car!

Welcome to the forum

My friends got a MK1 TT and the back is very special indeed. It still has more space than my FD RX-7, that was absolutely obscene with the lack of space there! You couldn't actually get a football into the area your butt was meant to go into

Well complete bull is very different Personally I'd be very wary of the rear seats and would be inspecting them, mind that said I'd just not buy a zed if I wanted 4 seats as it seems pointless!

TBH if the seats and seatbelts have been fitted securely with correct mounting points I don't see whats so funny about this? I'd sooner fit 2 rear seats if I had kids than sell the car, can't see there being any leg room though?!

Belts need tightening for sure. Best to get it done, while its impossible on this car I had an alternator belt snap on my 306 mule which took the cambelt with it. It hardly squeaked and looked fine before hand to my annoyance as well. French rubbish!

I've used fasthosts for the 3 sites I'm helping friends with, not sure how the prices compare though as they're all on basic £6 a month packages. Their support has been superb though!

Looks identical to mine, other than the flagpole Nice motor!

Love this album, was gutted to miss them at Reading a few years back

Welcome to the forum! Those do seem good quotes to be fair, named or own insurance? When I was 20 and living in rural Wales I was paying £1200 for a 2.0 Prelude, didn't mind though as I loved that car Hope you find the right Zed!

Not seen that one around these parts but I'll keep my eye out for it; theres another tit(anium) near to where I live here as well

Welcome to the forum! Nice Supra! I had a Supra TT before and found the move away from it easy to be fair - mine was an auto though and I hated it despite it being a lovely looking motor. I did move to an S2000 which I loved, the sheer driver involvement, feedback and revvy engine after being in the big old dead but fast barge made me really - sadly had to sell that due to moving and a new job and I've just got back into a good car now, the 350. I can honestly say its the best car I've ever had! Fun to drive quickly and at 75mph on the motorway with cruise also has the decency to return an astounding 34mpg

Sadly its all down to cost: Charge for a cycling awareness course = "but we're saving the environment", "why do we need to pay", "I'll drive instead" Don't charge for it = another 10p a litre on fuel to 'recoup' the cost.....

I use fast hosts to host my domain and a few friends business ones. Never had an issue

Ditto

As someone that cycled to work nearly every day last year I can say 100% that there are arsehole cyclists and motorists. I saw one cyclist nearly get hit by a car and proceeded to kick the driver mirror on the way past. Now you'd think fair enough, the car was turning around in an office junction on an industrial estate and didn't see the cyclist as he was making his reverse move back onto the main road (parked cars both sides)..... sounds like complete driver fault and partially is, however..... there is a designated cycle lane that would have had the cyclist off the road had he chosen to use it, it actually runs parallel with the main road and pavement and away from the danger, long story short, the car driver went after the cyclist, completely cornered him at a round about got out and a fight ensued. 2 others and myself broke it up who had seen the whole lot and all said the cyclist was in the wrong for not being in the cycle lane, not having the perception or vision to see the car turning and then kicking the mirror off. The closest I came be being knocked off was a car over taking me on a 2 lane road to then fly across the front of me into a left hand turn, I was doing near on 20mph so another 5 seconds behind me wouldn't have hurt. The most apologetic person I came across was a while back, I was in a cycle lane going down a big hill, at the bottom, queuing traffic. A car in the traffic decided to let another car on the other side of the road out and as he turned he went into the cycle lane, I had to brake hard but the lesson was to look for cars in opposite junctions in the future. The driver was massively apologetic but both agreed it wasn't really anyones fault and had a bit of a laugh with him about it. The short of it is, if people left with plenty of time and not last minute they'd be in much less of a hurry and probably (god forbid) enjoy their commutes and be less stressed, making less mistakes and annoying less people
