  1. Same here I would have taken this if you could post it.
  2. Something stuck in the tyre maybe, I know you've checked but it's easy to miss a headless screw or similar.
  3. How much for the carbon shroud please?
  4. Had mine a year and a bit. Replaced the aerial for a stubby, Miltek and Berks,Facelift front and rear lights, 06 airbox mod, Uprev, Rays, new brakes, Z badges plus other little mechanical bits Plenum spacer and new map next.
  5. Four of my undertray bolts were solid and I cut them off.The others after a night soaking in WD40 came off ok.
  6. I used four bits of wood baton on the ground and just rested the bumper on those.
  7. I had one, superb cars. The only thing I ever had to do was a repair to the bolster on the drivers seat. With any vtec oil changes are vital for good engine health. Get one with as much history as possible regarding servicing. Usual checks for knocking from suspension components and rust on the bodywork etc. Steering should be linear and smooth as they used a hydraulic system not the naff electrically assisted system on the EP3 CTR. Avoid overly modded cars and do any SC or Turbo work yourself if desired.A good clean well looked after standard car is what your after.
  8. Fantastic result, every neutral tonight was rooting for them. Also very happy as an Arsenal fan to see Spurs drop a clanger. Well done Leicester
  9. I'm not sure about the Z but I had a bmw that did something similar. That was a gearbox mount.
  10. Yep I have had this ever since I bought it
  11. I've been lucky on the rust front so far aside from just under the wing mirrors always good to take them off once a year and check. This is also a known spot for the rot.
  12. Morning The rubberised strip at the top of my windscreen has started to lift off at motorway speeds. Once stationary I just push it back down but this isn't ideal. What is the best way to sort this please? Thanks
  13. Morning I have a Mercedes Citan van that's now just over a year old. For the past month I have been engaged in a running battle with Mercedes about a handling issue and getting it fixed under warranty. They deny there is anything wrong with it and it's been to two separate dealers! I'm convinced the nearside rear trailing arm bush is knackered as the rear skips left over road undulations and feels like it's toeing out or steering from the rear around right hand bends. No issues when the offside is loaded on left handers. Either they are incompetent techs or they are trying to avoid a claim on their collaboration with Renault, either way when it's wet it's b****y dangerous and I expected better from them. I have refused to collect the vehicle until it's been resolved but they are being very difficult. I've never experienced customer service like it and I've owned many Fords in the past

    Dyson car?

    Intake should be awesome
  15. Ironically the marina has more kudos than the Ital that followed it
  16. Saying all that it's apparent that there are reliable ones and the type I had lol Also I had a rather dated grey leather interior and should have gone for kiwi or black.
  17. Mine was a manual. Had the Vanos done, boot floor reinforcement.New clutch/ brakes. Serviced at BMW to schedule. Conti M3 tyres and even a full first aid kit under the passenger seat and a full tool kit on the boot lid I traded in a 330ci for it because I had M envy Every month something else went wrong and in the end I got rid because it just didn't have that wow factor I wanted.
  18. On a straight road yes lol. Stock brakes are no match for a brembo set up nowhere near.
  19. I do have a big soft spot for the 159 Similar front end to the Brera.
  20. I to feel your pain. Fitted new tyres last year then ran over several screws and did three tyres in one day!
  21. I thought they were billed as lardy and underpowered. Look nice though.
  22. I'm not going to list to many negatives here. What do I miss about the M, errm the adjustable seat bolsters and that's about it. Never felt much faster that's for sure.I know on paper it is but you need to wring it out in the upper rev range to really exploit it. The stock brakes were below par and the steering rack wasn't the best. If I was to get another it would be the run out CS version which addressed some of the issues.
  23. I lasted 8 months with my M3 before getting the Z
