Sorry to see this, looks like she took it like a champ. Glad you're all good. I imagine the whiplash from a rear ended is pretty hefty? Don't know whether it was better or worse to see it coming

For any of the comic book fans out there, I saw the trailer for Batman v Superman when going to see new Star Wars* but have I missed something? Superman is, well err, super. He shoots lasers out his eyes, super strong, super fast, can genuinely fly and defeated three other Supers in Superman 2. Batman is a man in a very elaborate fancy dress costume. He'd last all of about 9 seconds in a punch up with Superman, even with kryptonite knuckle dusters. I mean, he could barely overcome a man whose superpower was speaking unintelligibly. *I enjoyed new Star Wars except for the learning to use a light sabre in 5 mins, to a level that would occupy a sith for more than 10 seconds. And Leia/Fisher was awful, they'd have been better off leaving her out.

It's been posted a few times, so there's some good reading on washers here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/71560-pressure-washers-and-associated-goodies/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/84389-best-pressure-washer/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/59045-best-snow-foam-lancepressure-washer/ And another good one here on lance: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/84321-what-a-difference-a-snow-foam-gun-can-make/ Nilfisk and Karcher always seem to get decent feedback, the Karcher I've got is coming up on three years old and gets used most weekends, still battling on though it occasionally fires up the motor for about a second for no apparent reason If it dies I might go for one of the fancy ones Dan keeps mentioning (I forget the name). Whatever you go for, make sure the lance you get has fittings that marry up to the brand of pressure washer (and leave the free foam guns you get bundled with the washer for cleaning the patio )

Hahhahaha, just goes to show they're everywhere Stop the world, I want to get off

I've been burgled twice with no fish bowl, only murdered once. How much does insurance pay out for stolen recovered vehicles that are worth 25% less when sold?

Get a sign made up for the bowl too, you know, for burglars - CAR KEYS HERE

You probably did, but didn't realise. Fast & Furious is a remake of Point Break - undercover guy goes to work for the crims, falls in bromance, etc. They just swapped surfboards for 10 second cars.

Don't tempt me - I've not used the BAN button yet

That spoof probably won't be far off it It's yet another tomb raid of your youth/childhood, first they ruined Star Wars, then remade Point Break with those F&F clowns, then Indy, then Superman, Total Recall, Robocop and now it's Ghostbusters. Bladerunner is coming back around soon too. Thankfully Back To The Future has to wait until Zemeckis is dead before they can butcher that and update it with a Vauxhall Ampera instead of the DeLorean. There won't be one single line in this new release that's as funny as this simple throwaway from Bill Murray I'm not against remakes and sequels as a thing, some are great -The Magnificent Seven, Heat, True Grit, Godfather 2, Aliens to name a few but 99% are awful. I suppose at least it means there'll be something in the cinema that won't involve a comic book rehash. Man, I'm old as ****

On an azure, for something classy I'd go Polar White, but if I was going show car, Mandarin Orange.

I thought forest gump prevented goodfellas from getting the oscar? Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk Not only did it beat Pulp Fiction, but also Shawshank.

WM FTW!

My scorpion mid pipe did the same thing. Took the W brace off and modified it with a hammer to make it a few millimetres thinner in the middle where it was touching, painted up the area where the paint had come off during hammer modification and re-fitted. No more rattle

The Oscars stopped being about "The Best" anything when Forest Gump beat Pulp Fiction to Best Picture and Christian Slater said it best in True Romance. "You know, Lee, most of these movies that win a lot of Oscars, I can’t stand. They’re all safe, geriatric, coffee-table dogsh!t, y’know?…All those a55holes make are unwatchable movies from unreadable books. Mad Max, that’s a movie. The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, THAT’S a movie. Rio Bravo, THAT’S a movie". FWIW I think she's right to have a pop, if only to upset the Oscar people and get them to look beyond the latest Spielberg/Ron Howard/James Cameron "epic".

When the Zed demands cash, she usually asks for a lot, but hopefully it's not that often.

If I were you, I'd get the SGS struts on there and never worry about the boot decapitating you again. The few pence for rubber washers and the penny trick shouldn't break the budget and you'll have fixed both issues for less than £60 (that's as cheap as fixes get on the Zed). You can always remove some weight using this guide - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/71353-how-to-wiper-removal-delete/ The boot weight/damper is a fair chunk of weight and the wiper arm and motor might shave a part of a KG.

The pop and the fall are different problems. When you open it, the struts aren't doing anything to assist the pop, the angle is all wrong for them to lift the boot open at that point. If it's coming down on the back of your head once fully open, go for some new struts, they stopped it for me nearly 3 years ago and it hasn't happened once since. To fix the problem with it not popping open enough, search for the penny trick on here but suggest using rubber washers not pennies, as they are more friendly to the paintwork. You can buy new poppers (which I've done in the past) but they only cured it for a matter of months on my Zed.

I think it's been taken over by the Ashley Madison crowd, but there you don't have an affair with someone you used to fancy at school, it's just a random

Definitely "did"
