+1 with regards the tram lining, test drove one before I bought the Zed, it was the car I was going to buy until that point although maybe "tramlines like a slag whore from hell" maybe not be strictly accurate, I thought it was worse than that Seriously, it was the one big thing that put me off the car, best advice I can give is test drive it asap, the "M" might be better of course Kiss my weiner! Based on the fact your talking about a better handling , faster, torqueier car, than mine i'll put it in some perspective.....its as fast as a zed, better equipt than a zed, handles better than the zed, easier to drive than the zed, cheaper to run, some would say better looking and just as well built. That said the zed pisses all over it but still its a real nice moter for the money. I'm well happy with it. Bad points; - could do with some sound proofing in the doors - tramlines like a slag whore from hell. - bonnet is so long you could land a harrier jump jet on it. - alloys will be or will soon corrode (good excuse for a refurb though) Aside from the zed.....best car I have ever driven (and that's only because I've got rose tinted glasses for the zed)

I didn't want to post this in the Zmanalex appreciation thread as I think this warrants a bit more attention. We all know how efficient Alex is when he's providing us with Nissan and Nissan related goodies but I wanted you guys to know that when things go wrong he's also a top banana Some of you will know that earlier this year I had an issue with a flywheel supplied by the "in stock and good to go" wizard, sorry Alex, couldn't resist Anyway, to cut a very long story short Alex has been fighting my corner with the manufacturer by badgering them with endless emails and phone calls. I'm very pleased and grateful for the professional and forthright manner in which Alex has battled on my behalf which has culminated in a very satisfactory outcome. Thanks Alex, it was above the level of customer service we often come across nowadays and I am a happy bunny

Merry Chrimstmas peeps Peace and goodwill.

Right you lot, this is Joy's Great Nephew Ashley he is now 7, six months ago he could walk. Unfortunately he had a cancerous growth on his spine which was detected too late. Now he is paralysed from the waist down and is undergoing chemo. He is such a cheeky little live wire, even now with what he his going through. When they gave him his wheelchair the first thing he said to his big brother Connor was "you're not scooting that down the path on two wheels on my chair". Their dad Craig is a British soldier and the army have been absolutely brilliant converting the house for Ashley and as a family they are so together. I have it on good authority that nothing would make the boys happier this Christmas than for as many people to watch their vids on You Tube as possible, so please go and have a quick peek, it won't take long, won't cost a penny and will make a young family very happy indeed. Thank you. Ashley:- Connor:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIyPlkdZ ... uHR1WCF3D6

Bitter and twisted!!? Me!!? let it lie Graham, let it lie

Thanks buddy, that's exactly what I keep thinking

And no blood was spilt in courier land

Forgot to mention this yesterday when these were fitted, when my tyre place were balancing the wheels all of them were under 1 gram out

Here you go Jim, this will help me get the car a tad lower Another offering from the fair hand of mrs glrnet, is it any wonder I'm the weight I am?

You know the answer to that one Think I just need to get used the new look first and see how I feel when the Brembos are refurbed

I got a set of Vreds (this week), they were 19's not 18's though, try tyremen and camskills, got the fronts from one and the rears from the other, hope this helps

Welcome from an equally excited 58 year old, and I have had the car 18 months!!!

Sorry buddy but it's a

Here's the ratio of anti freeze to water guff:- http://www.ehow.com/how_2188874_mix-car-coolant.html

Think I might have to speak to Darren ref his set up

You b*gger

How much is yours lowered Bob? Did I just ask that no more mods, no more mods................................

No, but I did this gammon joint, when I say did, I mean prepared not eaten You could have made a few with "Z's" on ..... or have you eaten them already

Well they're on and I think they look And yes, I know the car needs cleaning

And today..............mince pies

It very much depends on the level of protection you want, check what the anti freeze manufacturer recommends, you should find details on the container.

Double result

Happy Christmas mate

At least you'll be in your Zed Everybody, together, deeeeeep breaths and relax
