I'd start building him a go kart now if I was you. Me & my brother had one like the one below when we were kids which we loved... Probably get him an awesome electric one for similar money nowadays especially if you went for secondhand.

Look's like he's going to be running 20's on that bad boy. Make sure he keeps the TCS on until he gets used to the extra power.

Yes it does.

Don't think he's "impressed" anyone.

Yep agree. I honestly have no idea why he's so popular. I start questioning myself when guys like him make it so far in life. More recently with regards to James Corden. I wonder why I hate them when they're so loved by the masses!! Am I in the wrong?! Yep he's another one I dislike too. I think it boils down to the fact that over half the population are idiots so we just have to put up with what they like as the majority rule. .

It is a fair distance to cover really isn't it. Dodgy barstewards.

Maybe Ekona could present Top Gear I wish he was, ....anyone would be better than Chris Evans.

Video is set to private, ...think you just need to set it to public for us all to be able to watch (privacy settings).

You knew I'd love this Chris. Great idea, ....couldn't see the video though for some reason.

Pretty sure that won't happen to you.

^^ What they said. Welcome aboard.

Sounds like you're a little too into the Yaris already. I do get what you mean though. I know my Type R is supposed to be a "fast car" but compared to my old Zed it's so sedate I feel like it's a 1 litre. Been watching my MPG and everything. Don't worry, I'm not becoming civilised lol. I found when I had my VTI that it egged me on to rev and thrash it, so you're doing well to fight that urge lol. But then at the time it was the most powerful car I'd owned at 170 bhp so I'd probably do the same as you now even if I had a type R, having already owned a TZed. You feel like it's a 1 litre? Well mine IS a 1 litre lol. We should race. (not on a public road though obviously)

Insurance is a funny thing, not in the "Ha ha" way though. Tbh I think that sounds a little rich. I was paying £495 fully comp with Adrian Flux and that was for a heavily modified supercharged '03 Zed with 436Bhp. I'm 35 with around 11 years NCB, car parked on driveway over night (standard Nissan Cat 1 alarm/immob etc). The thing is though it will obviously make a big difference the area you live in, crime statistics etc for the area. I'd say just go on a comparison site to see what better prices you can get. If you haven't used one before it's really easy (takes maybe 20 mins). Just be honest, add all your details/car specs, NCB's etc and they'll then generate your quotes from hundreds of insurance companies based on the info you've provided at the end with the lowest priced ones first. GoCompare (my favourite one): http://www.gocompare.com/ MoneySuperMarket: http://www.moneysupermarket.com/?Source=GOO-004AEF26&Keyword=moneysupermarket&p=0&mckv=s0ER6q1q2|dc_pcrid_36543617942_mtype_e_kword_moneysupermarket_2764ri918980&uuid=a3189108-0471-4306-9b3d-0fe18f2fe094&Device=c&gclid=CNXN55W0xsUCFSkcwwodbxoAKw Confused.com: http://www.confused.com/?&mediacode=294&ADMYPPCTYPE=Non_RLSA&ADMYGENBRPROD=Brand&mkwid=s6356|17421_dc&pcrid=67479531656&pkw=confused&pmt=e&gclid=CLOr3ZX1xMcCFcSRGwodVCsIRA&loc=1007416 Let us know how you get on.

Look's fantastic. GLWTS.

Exactly. Nobody hurt which is the main thing & I'm sure you've learnt from your trip into the bushes. Good luck with the insurance company.

Sorry to read the engines thrown a wobbly but sounds like it's going to be so much better afterwards. Going to be such a long wait for you though TT. Try not to get too used to that run about car.

Adrian Flux is who I'm with and was the best price I got for my supercharged Zed. Since I've now sold that & am driving a Civic Type R when it comes to my renewal time I'll be using GoCompare, Money Supermarket etc etc to try and find the lowest quote possibly. I suggest you do the same especially if your car isn't modified much if at all. Also you can always ring Adrian Flux up after you've got your comparison website prices and see if they'll match it or even better it.

Nasty looking accident and glad to read you're alright Tuga. Don't take it the wrong way though (as that is easily done online sometimes) but I do agree with a lot of what Dan (Ekona) has said. Specifically the below..... It took me several "accidents/crashes" before I truly learnt that and I just wish now that I'd learnt it the first time. Hope you find a nice Zed again soon & it's even better than your first one.

Welcome aboard Matt.

Welcome aboard. Great looking Zed.

Welcome aboard. At least you'll have a nice drive back then if you do get it by the sounds of it.

Also I'm not a "brand whore" or anything but a decent tyre brand manufacturer I think is a must if you're going to paint the lettering white. I mean "Linglong Bestest Sporty Special" tyre written in white doesn't look quite as good as "Michelin Pilot Super Sport" does it now.

Can't they just fabricate something to hold the button/number plate lights out of aluminium or something? ...then stick it in place with said Tigerseal or similar? Really they should be able to figure it out themselves imo. I mean good on them for informing you of progress/problems etc but it's why you're paying them surely so that you don't have to figure this sort of thing out.
