  1. Maybe your's could be one of the small ones at the bottom!
  2. Thanks i have emailed it over for the calendar Good! That has to be October's picture for sure!
  3. I spent about 15 mins drooling at that too... It would literally take up our living room wall. This on the other hand I need in my life: http://www.costco.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/cos_1,cos_1.1,cos_1.1.1/142976 Absolutely ridiculous!
  4. What Dan said... Go and look at some and stay well clear of Curry's (When you actually buy one) as there are loads of deals to be had online. Toshiba's and Samsung's are the way forward. I've always been a bit of a Sony whore, but they aren't as good as Tosh / Sammy at the moment and are certainly more expensive in a lot of cases. If you're a Costco member, then one of these would do the job: http://www.costco.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/cos_1,cos_1.1,cos_1.1.1/156939
  5. Sorry to hear that mate. Someone reversed into me last year and it left a dent in the plastic rear bumper... I didn't think you could repair plastic without a filler then respray?
  6. Don't worry about it, probably just a cold call. I can't see anyone going to that much trouble to steal a 350Z, it's not new or exotic, so not really worth a planned burglary.
  7. New shaped Boxter, new Cayman or 370z... one of those will be my next car... If I ever get tired of the 350 that is.

    Plenum spacer

    You removed yours? Don't you supply your own though? :confused: He removed his inferior quality one and replaced it with his own. I also have one of Ian's and it is top quality!

  10. There's a few on eBay, but they are well over £250. They don't seem to come up for sale all that often.
  11. I wish I had a 370 to put this on! GLWTS BTW any pics of the Merc you'd be willing to share?
  12. I've not heard of the failing due to extreme cold, but they definitely get worse over time. You can get them re-gassed or replaced, not sure about warranty? Mine are on the way out, but am managing with the "2p" trick to pop the boot up.
  13. A Zed in Bristol! That won't go down well with all the hippies!
  14. Loving the build so far mate. This is the first time I've actually had time to go through the whole thread. Like Dave says, you haven't hung around! Wish I had the time and cash to do this!
  15. Hah, I work for BT (and I may regret saying this, I'm not sure) but if any of you ever have problems with a service BT is providing for you (personal, business, phone, TV, Internet, whatever...) just let me know. There are some cases where we can help gee things along a bit if you're stuck with a problem and aren't making the progress you'd like. (There are also some things where it's illegal for me to help you because of the way BT is regulated by the government so I can't help with everything, but I'll try my best) Free BT Sport? Good luck with the exam mate!
  16. Silkolene? Silkolene is Fuchs now I think? I'm sure he's thinking of Royal Purple... it's not well known, but is supposed to be good?
  17. Are you talking about Purple something or another dearie?
  18. Absolutely. I suppose though, if you don't want that to happen to your family, don't drive like a ***** (Not saying you do, just meaning that he is the only one to blame) Any child that see's that won't street race, I'd put money on it. You could say the same amount smoking or eating certain stuff, driving in general, flying or even stepping out the house. But you don't think what if i die and leave my body out. . to a certain degree, you're right. Smoking causes your family to watch you die slowly (In most cases, not all obviously) and so does eating everything you can reach so it's not too dissimilar. Driving in general and flying etc, yep, you don't think about it. I guess what I was meaning is, do something exceptionally wrong and you deserve anything you get. Doing 80/90 in 70 yes it would be really extreme and excessive, however 150 in a residential area deserves anything you get. I'd far rather his family have to see it than the family of a child who was playing in his garden when a car came bowling through the garden fence. I agree with you but I think he most likly got caught up in the moment. It's not thr first thing that goes through your head. What I find scary is the fact the picture didn't shock or phase me as think as it should have. I'm not a racer or anything but I thought seeing a dead man would shock me more. Sadly, I think we are completely desensitised to this sort of sight, maybe it's just me, but I have seen worse recently on the 6 o'clock news. I'm not saying that's it's not horrible, it just doesn't shock me. Whilst in Vietnam a few years ago I saw a massive pool of blood with someone's detached foot in it after a scooter vs lorry accident. Although it was pretty surreal, I wasn't at all horrified as I've seen televised autopsies, Jodie Marsh and all manner of other vile operations from the comfort of my sofa. If it stops one innocent person from being killed or injured then maybe it's worth it?
  19. If in doubt, leave the car at home. I drove from Sussex to Leeds earlier in the year when we had really bad snow, so much so that the M1 has 1 lane closed. It wasn't that bad until I got to the bottom of my road, some 250 miles later when there was no visible tarmac and the car decided that it didn't want to move. I probably wouldn't have done the journey if it wasn't vital and to be fair there are probably less than 5 days a year where you absolutely couldn't drive the car at all. Winter tyres are definitely an option, but then I'm not usually worried about my ability to stop or handle in bad conditions, it's usually worrying about people who don't drive any differently from normal when the roads and conditions are bad.
  20. Sorry to see this matey and I hope you get it sorted! It's sickening that more and more people will just drive off after damaging someone else's car...
  21. Eibach ARB's would be pretty badass!
  22. Dave were you in Rawdon / Leeds a few days ago? I saw a Zed with some 7 series wheels on? I'm sure it was a Silver with dark wheels.
