Looks spot on. Can't really be your first one surely???

Chanel No. 5? Perhaps a more masculine fragrance for Stanley. Boss bottled or chip fat and cigar smoke?

Cool choice for a "sensible" car

If you can afford it, you're passion about it and you'd be happy with it - buy it! It's not about "are your current photos good enough?". If we all thought about things like that we'd own Micra's (to get from A to B ) instead of Zeds and eat corned beef for the protein instead of steak.

I dremmelled out the door grills, it's thick sound killing stuff, which helped the sound a bit. Not sure doing the same for the tweeter grills will help, as it's so cloe to your face? Could it make the sound even brighter? Best results I got in the end was a long time playing with the fader and the EQ and the levels and the crossover on the amp. If I was going to do something more, it'd be more dynamatting.

Brought my Tarmac tee on tour, today in Baton Rouge, Louisianna. First stop of the sportsman's tour was the gun range and second stop was the racetrack. Tee shirt performed admirably and I not only won the karting but broke into the top 10 lap times. Race proven

Just got the roof up for a while on account of some Alabama Hot Rain (34c) and thought I'd do a little review of Florida, as we've just left, and I can relax without being bettered by wind and scorching sun Miami was good, expensive and touristy but well worth a visit. Miami Dolphins game ruled and the cheerleaders and are a different level of hot. The view of Downtown Miami from South Beach is tremendous at sunset. Got to put my Tony Montana shirt on and drive round like I was in Scarface and see the sights The Keys were terrific, again touristy but it was cool to see the overseas highway and Hemingway House and generally hang out. Tampa was great, much better than I expected, quite cosmopolitan compared to some places along the way Busch Gardens was brilliant and I got to see a parent screaming swear words at a child (Brits as well ) The Camaro SS has been great fun, not the most nimble and the sound is hugely disappointing, but it's a great cruiser on highways and the AC is freezing (thank God). It felt like a big car until we got to the South and pulled up alongside an F250 truck!!! Naturally in this beast the thing we've seen most of is gas stations! At 18mpg with two thousand plus miles to cover we do a lot of fill ups, but it's only £45 a tank so far in gas stations I've seen: - A man spark a fag - Pigs feet for sale (as a snack) - Someone asked me to say hello to the Queen - Cheese flavoured popcorn - Peanuts served in a bag of water I got to stay in the world's worst motel in Gainesville (video to follow, if I ever find wifi again) and also see a College Football game (Gators v Wildcats). See a gator up close. Ride an airboat. Found the Blackpool of USA (Panama City Beach). I've eaten all manner of burgers (Wendy's is the best so far). I'm still hoping to fire a gun and go fishin' and go to Medieval Times! Biloxi, Baton Rouge and New Orleans next.

I'm in Tampa later this week, wonder if they'll have any 6s left, could be a good price. I'd like to see the plus in the flesh, but not really sure if I need an iPad replacement

I get what you're saying Dan. I felt the same way about going to Cristo Redentor in Rio (I'm not religious it was something I just al ways wanted to see, for as long as I can remember) it doesn't have to be rational It's mental that a smartphone has more computing power than everything they used to send people to the moon back then, and I just use it to browse the forum and send messages

Where was the moon? Must have missed it. I was too much excited by the shuttle

Picked up our Camaro SS rental, had a drive over to Kennedy Space Center [sic] good fun so far, I remember it being a bit more impressive last time out, but that was before I owned the Zed Sadly not orange Seeing the space shuttle was amazing! Saw 3 Zeds too, two nicely modded 50s and a stock 70.

Unlucky, way to lose 25bhp At least it's not ginger

IIRC the terminal/plug needed some modding with a Stanley knife when I did mine, but it's not a rewire, more of cutting a bit of plastic off.

I can't complain about the Cosworth ones I've had.

Wow, that looks flawless. Do you own a steadicam?

I've always fancied some contract work north of the border, should be years of it.

Not sure about the black bits, the rear or front lights and the rear wheels look too small, other than that I quite like it

I've got one of these waiting for me at an airport tomorrow, super psyched. I hope it's that colour beautiful. GLWTS

Scotland can use the pound, but if Westminster doesn't go for a currency union, it would be giving up any input on fiscal policy and the ability to be a lender of last resort (think bank bail out). Countries like Ecuador and Panama use the US dollar, but that means they have to run at a surplus and have no control over exchange rates or any ability to print money. Long term it can't work, but short term it could whilst they figure out a plan. However, the interesting question is whether Westminster will actually follow through on it's threat to refuse a currency union. The Euro is a shambles of an idea in itself, how on earth vastly different economies like Germany and Greece can be treated the same is something I've never understood to be at all workable. The alternative of having a Scottish currency is it would be extremely volatile, with no credit history and no one would really know what it was worth and if the people shat their pants and started withdrawing all their pounds out the banks, all hell would break loose. Imagine if your bank rang up and said to you, "We're converting all your life savings to a new currency called the **** please don't withdraw it all in sterling now, try not to worry, it might even be worth more". It'll be extremely interesting to see what happens to currency if Yes wins. I'd guess a currency union, but it's a bit of a gamble to make with everyone's money north of the border.

Place looks a bit shabby for a Zed owner.

This looks like all kinds of fun. Binning it on the ring should be a badge of honour

A zed would have entered the living room rear end first

Does it not trigger the alarm simply because NATS is still armed, due to not using the remote to disable it?

Please don't be a good price...

You sure he had Mrs in the shop? With chat like that he might have just had poor luck on grinder.
