Not specific to the 350z, had anyone bought or used one of these kits? Couple of mates have had punctures gone to a garage for repairs and they've plugged it and sent them in their way. The repair is similar to what the AA and RAC etc do for members, treated as a permanent repair. I bought a kit for emergencies and the other morning noticed the wifes Nissan Note N/S rear tyre was flat. Screw dead center of the tread, so used the kit and thus far it's been fine. Cut the plug a bit proud of the tyre, so it would wear in a tad and blew the tyre up to spec. Will buy another kit to leave in the Zed now. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00ISFHBWE/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=A66GM1OKAU2KN&psc=1

We use Driver Transmissions in Birmingham at work.

Ello n welkom

I would first check the door switches on the b posts. Then carry out a window auto up/down reset.

Think it's fair to say non of us know for sure, only our residential youtuber @vroom811 would know what's what

Plus it's passive income, doubt it's cash in hand payment. Bank transfers wouldn't be too hard to audit from a taxable pov.

Dunno how much 500k views earns, maybe a couple thousand.

I said a company like this could easily pile tone of money into R&D and create fantastic wax it wet product. Each to their own and good job stores are filled with different brands.

Someone stepped up and paid it otf for Ricky.

Arranging meets/events are a thankless task and does take effort/planning to not waste everyone's time. That last note won't have the desired effect. I like a few others have been arranging meets for years and years on this forum and previous clubs, paid or not paid you get no shows. The same goes for christmas parties, meals, drinks nights, birthdays, weddings etc For a total no show to a space limited meet, the next time they post interest for a space limited meet #reservelist

Exactly 12 month's ago I'd said this could easily happen, only brand snobs slate companies like turtle wax.

I can see the post timeline police coming lol

That's lush

Ultimately he hasn't hurt anyone and isn't bad person *understand no one has said he has. I also doubt he's after anyone sympathy. He's documenting what can happen during a vehicle finance agreement. Anyone who has modded a car on manufactures finance is no different. Hundreds of thousands of car guys and girls watch his content finding it entertaining. Having personally met and spoke with Ricky at a Midlands meet he held, he's a sound lad and I challenge anyone to show first hand experience of anything other.

Turtle Wax huh? must be well rubbish

Its like it you bought a set of wheels and tyre for £1800 on finance and after a few months decided you wanted to get the wheels refurbed in a difference colour, nobody would think twice. Its the same the for cars, yes not yours until paid off but evidential mods//alterations take place. Poor example I know, but in principle the same. I think its a tough call, has BMW sold more M cars due to LLF? Possibly a lot of owners would say yes, the channel had influenced their decision over a similar spec Audi, Nissan, Jag or Merc. Are BMW happy with the extra sales, yes but no. Still could all be fake news???

The VQ series was a Nissan designed and built engine, Renault used these as a customer, not the other way round.

You can mod a financed car, like what Litchfield and Mountune do for Nissan, Porsche and Ford - yes what Ricky did was wrong and his close friends should have had a word. This won't have been his first financed car that he's modded over the years. Dare I say it most financed performance cars get modded, like I said it's if you get caught. He got caught that is the only difference.

Looks good Build thread........

Lots of people in the comments above don't get YouTube, it's a business. Not all shop owners own the premises. They're not classed as fronting, it's business. Most corporate companies lease vehicles not buy them, having cash tied up in a depreciating asset. If a car costs 15k in depreciation during the first 3yrs, and leasing or PCP for the same car for the same term costs 10k and you have no intention of keeping it, why pay the extra?..….... People that own their car outright with undeclared mods aren't in a advantageous position should a claim be needed.

Could be a slight leak from the overflow pipe. I think if there was anything untoward with the cap, you'd loose a lot more than a few drops of coolant.

Topic isn't how folks fund cars, its modifying cars on finance.

Our cars are with www.startrescue.co.uk been with them for a fair few years now. Seem decent value and used them only the once on our Note and service was good. Think we pay £99 for 12 months cover on both cars, home start and UK national attendance/recovery.

The same should happen to anyone who modifies a finance vehicle, most likely will be in the small print. This is just a landmark case for all the bank owned vehicles that have their arches cut for rocket bunny kits. Ricky does nothing more than probably a lot of other BIG power tuned vehicle owners. Its all fine until you get caught.

'sir did you remember to treat my wheel different to batch of the other 10 sets you did that day?" "Yes of course customer, I told the lad and he made sure to run the oven at a lower temperature for longer after all the other wheels just for you"
