  1. saw that one, was on there for a month or so. Good catch, exhaust is £3,000+ alone. There are nismos that been on there for 4 months.... Enjoy, I still got my tails which is as loud as I need. probably get a 67/18 with less than 5k miles lol The rear wing was well done, good touches
  2. You should do some driving videos on the passes, scenery is impressive. Obviously be careful
  3. lool crooks, Nissan didnt do this. Thats surely illegal. Depreciation on my Z was all of £200 pound albeit paying 18% interest. Despite the interest I didnt feel the car is a £40,000 pound car. So I went used. Total would have been £33,000 on a near new car. Still 7k less than £40,305 pounds for a new one. But still the fact is you're still paying 7k in interest!
  4. If you lose the wing and side panels and maybe put wider arches instead I think itll be okay. Maybe lose the roof scoop. Slightly for todays market.
  5. It can pass for a Japanese car. Slightly overstyled but still looks decent. I dont think theyll keep the side panels that doesnt look pedestrian safe
  6. lol looks better than a supra different category but still
  7. https://www.topgear.com/car-news/hot-hatch/watch-out-civic-type-r-new-mini-gp-get-300bhp 3000 Track Tested JCW to be released rated at 300bhp using a 4 cylinder engine. They are aiming for a faster time than 8:23 on Nordschleife. They have some work to do as the type R does 7:43. Not bad at all.
  8. Went from 350z. Had a civic beforehand. Thought about it for all of 4 weeks then bought one. Same goes with the 370. Went to see it at the show room then 2 months later got one. 370z was much smoother for me. 350 had a better seating position
  9. I watched the Top Gear Review where it caught fire. Its the same engine as the megane and detuned. Im sure its a good car. But 50k is steep for what it is. Steep for me anyway. Overall steep for a 4 pot 1.8. When the initial hype dies down. We'll see if there's any depreciation. Some say it will hold its value at 50k. I started to find Chris Harris annoying lately. His 992 911 review was as boring as he sounded. Hes full of cliches and a badge snob. Kept reminding us it was a Renault or at least theirs no Renault badge in sight or the makers say its not a Renault. Its used parts from Renault good to know and so on and so forth It seems a good car regardless of badge
  10. Unsightly.....man o mannn...reminds me of high school when the Design Tech teacher used to ask do you think this design is aesthetically pleasing. The answer is Hell No!! Lessons to be learned from this one I think. Z4 looks better. This is overstyled and busy.
  11. Yeah the APR makes it almost as expensive as buying brand new. With that APR a used TTS at £26k would be 34k by the time you finished due to interest. Then you look at BMW 24% combined on some used M2s lol. That takes it to 43k on some cars costing 32k. Right now the TTS are holding value well. But like the TTS and TTRS gone before (MkII) they will eventually depreciate into the teens Better off putting a bigger chunk and paying HP for 2 - 3 years. IE £15k then get rid after 3 years when it really starts dropping due to new mk4 shape I used to laugh at PCP/HP too. Then I thought who cares only live once. Get what you want! I did see one 1st week I bought the Nismo. He was stuck staring at me while doing 20 mph. But I had tints so he couldnt see me and sped off.
  12. the large ducktail spoiler and single vent front wing look good. That along with nismo rear diffuser/back bumper would be my ideal. See 370 isnt dead yet! Large Ducktail by them as well?
  13. what about the Alfa 4C? slightly out of budget though.
  14. The Z will be a lot more rewarding to mod im sure
  15. As far as I know hes got a few bolt ons and tune. Fast Intentions exhaust, down pipe, carbon shaft + ECU Map plus some other bolt ons Claims to have made +160 whp and +200ft lbs over stock with tune and covered 10,000 miles Not bad for a car that weighs 1850kg. I think he wants to reduce the weight next. 600 bhp I think
  16. This can happen anywhere. Its probably due to economic reasons! A spate of claims, low uptake on insurance, many reasons.
  17. Follow me on Instagram Dreamer1566

  18. so what's it going to be? Not much out there that doesnt have huge repair costs or some issue or another. Have too live with whatever shortcomings your choice may have Mustangs do look good. The V8 sounds crazy. A rev off between that and the E92 M3. Something from the heavens
  19. jheeze.....and 145 in a 70? Would expect 9-12 months for that and a night in the cell. Depends on the day. Maintenance, what about an HR 08 09 as suggested earlier
  20. Saw that one this morning LOL. Seen couple ads where people are getting banned. Probably been ragged to the hills. The ad stated he had another project car. Interesting. Call and ask for the original plates. These guys and their private plates, messes up the whole process during sale. I had to wait 10 days to tax my 350z. He should change the plates back to originals now if its actually for sale! MOT history check and HPI from reputable site. See what hes been up to.
  21. pot luck with that. Extended test drive and just listening to the engine can help determine what state its in though
