  1. Yeah button doesn't work either, physical switch locks / unlocks in the same way the passenger door does manually.
  2. Hey all, Recently when locking my car i noticed that although i could audibly hear it locking, the indicators were not flashing. After checking out the status of the car I realised that the drivers door was still unlocked but the car alarmed. Using both the key and the switch on the drivers door, the passenger side lock flips but the drivers doesn't, audibly it sounds as if everything is trying to lock. I can open/close the lock manually or by key with no problems. The issue appears to be somewhat intermittent at the moment. I was wondering if anyone has experienced this issue too / could point to the likely cause.
  3. Saw in the car park today, anyone from here?
  4. Just as I was getting off at junction 5, saw a grey 350z go past in the outside lane. Anyone from here?
  5. Took mine for a P3 + MOT today. All thoughroughly friendly and informative. Hoping to head back for a Cobra exhaust soon
  6. Hey all, Jumped in the car this morning and noticed a fast clicking sound coming from the passenger side. I played with the climate control a bit and could hear that the rate of clicking was consistent with the power of the heater blowers, kind of like a card in spokes. I'm pretty positive there is a leaf or something touching up against the blower fan. Have any of you guys resolved this problem before if so how accessible is the fan / squirrel cage in the blower motor to remove the intruder?
  7. Sorry I meant clutch to floor, car out of gear.

  9. I've had my car a couple of weeks bow and have only recently started to put my foot down. Someone casually mentioned the sound saying something like oh, that's a nice diff whine. Since becoming aware of it I'm hearing it more and more, mainly when up past 3000. The sound goes if I drop the clutch so I think it's more likely the gears. The only way I can really describe it is as if the car has a turbo, it doesn't overpower the engine sound but it's there in the background especially if the radio is off. My dad went out in car and just said it could be because you are sat over the gearbox, or perhaps a bearing on its way out. I just wondered ifs this sound relatively normal on these cars, or should I only be hearing the grunt of the engine during heavy acceleration? I can certainly live with it but don't wouldnt want to damage the car through ignorance.
  10. I drove from Birmingham to Somerset after work to pick mine up last Thursday, very tiring day but very worth it! Good luck with the journey / transaction
  11. Very Cool Ian! It's been very interesting to read through this thread and see how your car became what it is today. I may have to get a boot divider from you once I have gotten over this initial financial hit of car, tax, insurance etc.
  12. This. I just went to see the Castle but turned out to be one of the best days by far. Bought back a lot of fond childhood memories.
  13. I went in June last year, it was great fun. It rains pretty much every day for an hour or so around 4pm, good advice would be to wait this out as the parks empty afterwards. Other important thing is to make sure you get to the Parks early, you'll get as much done in the first hour as you would in the following four. Avoid Wet 'N Wild, it's so dated! Aquatica and the Disney parks are better for that kind of thing. Generally Disney parks feel less like uk theme parks than Universal IMO. As mentioned above I found this forum really helpful planning our trip: http://www.thedibb.co.uk/ If you are up for an eating challenge try the 'Kitchen Sink': http://www.tripadvis...do_Florida.html Also the Cheesecake Factory is an awesome chain of resturants, there is one a 15min drive away from parks.
  14. Thanks for all the replies, good to hear that they get an unjust rep. Very much looking forward to Thursday night now
