Thank god those aren't Zed parts... still a few things that interested me though!

Got mine yesterday Chris, many thanks.

Watched it with the sound off... I guessed the music wouldn't be for me and as soon as I saw them I knew mute was a good decision. Too much poncing in an attic, not enough Zed!

As Katy says, a 40cm plate should easily cover the holes.

Oh wow... that is a touch "brokeback". Also, will it not be cold driving it when it's -30?

Looking good hensh! What wheels are you thinking of getting?

Nice video and some good driving! Got to love that Espace... the obvious choice for a track day.

BBK? I know he works in it quite a bit! What are you making?

PM sent. Was going to get some later in the year, but that price is too good to pass up... Even better than importing them from the US, so anyone else thinking of getting these will be saving a decent amount!

Isn't that an Exige? If it was me, I'd go for the Noble. The Lotus is nice, but how many times in your life are you going to be able to own a super rare British supercar? I wouldn't have thought the price of those will go down much, they may even rise over the next few years.

Our other car is a Golf (2.0 Diesel) and I really like it. It doesn't have a personality though, I could never love it. I'm pretty sure I'd also not love an R or GTI, but they are fantastic machines... if not particularly striking, but then I think their image is mature class and not boy racer.

I don't think your realise how Haydn works... Style 1st, function 2nd!

Nice! Any pics of the R5 GTT? Love those a lot!

I'm kind of hoping someone in the UK has stock so I don't have to order from the states, wait and pay stupid tax. Not convinced it still wouldn't be cheaper... But obviously the wait is a PITA!

Not that I know much about anything, but I thought Zed LMGT4's were 8.5J front and 9.5J rear? Obviously they made them in other sizes, so I'm sure you know better than me Ady!

Direct from the manufacturer? Probably more expensive, but you know you're defo getting the real deal?

Cheers ATTAK, that make sense. I'll probably just replace both arms and do the uprated bushes to be on the safe side... Shame it's so damn expensive for some bits of rubber and metal!

Probably a stupid question and one with a logical answer... I'm pretty sure mine need replacing... or at least the bushes do. Is there any reason to replace the entire arm or will just the bushes be sufficient? The reason I ask is that the uprated polybushes are about £200 and the arms (with stock bushes) are £500! I assume that the arm itself can fail? How would you identify this?

Hi mate how did you paint the part underneath the grill. Does it come free from the bumper or is it a case of masking it off? Thanks! I took the bumper off as I changed the side reflectors at the same time. You could definitely just mask it whilst on the car though. Just a few coats of Plastikote and it looks really good. I've had it done a few months now and there's no sign of wear.

Pre or post V8?

I wouldn't recommend Rutland Motors at all... The customer service I got from Sam was terrible. Ordered a 10mm fitting catch can which turned up 2 weeks later with 12mm fittings. No response from him for over a week, he then said he'd send a replacement with no hint of apology. Another 2 weeks passed and a 12mm one arrived. Had to get a refund via PayPal as no communication from Sam. Glad you had a good experience Graham, but I'd certainly be wary of ordering anything from them.

Really like those Haydn! How much better than stock are they and have the changed the brake balance or feel?

Play it and then get it when it comes out on the next gen stuff. I usually wait for the PC version, but can't this time as it looks too good and the PC ports are usually shite.

Well my build thread is not going to interest anyone in the same way that say Bizz's will. I enjoy being a member of this club and like seeing what other people do to their cars, no matter how small. Just because your car is stock or only slightly modified shouldn't prevent you from being able to join in. I hope people continue to post pics of their cars, even the stock ones!

A leather clad admirer maybe?
