  1. OK, guys and gals, when is it this year and what do you get the old dear, and the SO from the kids? I'm personally hoping its after my pay day which is 28th March. My mother will get flowers and a card (I fixed her car for her but dont think that counts). Its my SO from the kids I struggle with. What do you all go with? Jay
  2. Here I am standing corrected . On a side note, I've bought a couple of bits from Tarmac and have never been dissapointed
  3. Thought mines but looking on tarmac site, that has the metal arms holding it to bumper, or am i being dense?
  4. I think they use something similar to clean tanks (the armoured kind not water). Possibly used to get corrosion off good metal, as they paint buggered off leaving metal, I think the same happens with rust. Could be wrong though. Certainly not for water fights lol
  5. Check tarmac sports, pretty sure they have the one you're looking at. On their shopping list its down as the GT style splitter.
  6. I enjoyed it more than i expect, but i fully agree with mammoth about James just being sat there for so long barely being spoken to. In all honesty I wasn't a fan of the celeb spot on original TG, always felt like filler. Id much prefer to watch the reviews and challenges. The news was OK as long as the news was interesting and relevant.
  7. If its got lots of history and looks well looked after, I think you'd be fine. That's what I got, and I've had zero trouble so far (touch wood)

    My New Car

    Yeah we see it a lot here. Corrosion to exhaust brackets but exhaust in tact, and the older ones had weeping sumps. But yeah, you'd expect better for a brand spanker.
  9. The essentials for all Zed owners, bird poo remover wipes and fuel money. I may have sunglasses and CD's too.

    My New Car

    Very nice. If you intend on keeping it I'd advise undersealing the sump pan and brackets that hold the exhaust to the body. Besides that, they're robust little cars.
  11. Company car is pretty frugal it does 300 miles on about 15 quid and any business miles can be claimed back, that's about a weeks driving. The zed? About a tank of super a month.
  12. In a really sexist way, along with 500's, I always check who's driving a mini.
  13. I agree about modding Dan, and with me it was clear cut but the garage was less than happy. It didn't go to court with me, but they'd also mislead with the original advert.
  14. I returned my first t sport corolla fir not being fit for purpose after a month. It was a family run business in Coventry, at first it was just one guy, half an hour layer there was 6 of them. Got my money back though.
  15. If you buy a new or used car from a dealer and experience problems with it, you have some statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. The Act states the car must be “of a satisfactory qualityâ€, “fit for purpose†and “as describedâ€. (For a used car, “satisfactory quality†takes into account the car’s age and mileage.) You have a right to reject something faulty and you are entitled to a full refund within 30 days of purchase in most cases. After 30 days you lose the short-term right to reject the goods. You’ll also have fewer rights, such as only being able to ask for a repair or replacement, or a partial refund. In fact, you’re legally allowed to return it up to six years after you bought it (in Scotland, it’s five years after you first realised there was a problem). But it gets more difficult to prove a fault and not normal wear and tear is the cause of any problem.
  16. emoticon was supposed to be a B with a )
  17. If it all goes wrong you have 6 months from purchase where you can take the vehicle back for full refund for not being fit for purpose. The garage must legally A) repair and make fit for purpose, or Give you a full refund. I always go for the full refund as the garage will most likely do the fix as cheap as possible to see out the remainder of the 6 months.
  18. I dont like my wife driving the zed when im sat next her, let alone a youtuber
  19. My uprev is 41 a month, not sure how that relates to the HR, just know its more than the pre '06 plate. Ignore the coming tax changes, they only apply to brand new cars.

    Stubaru BRZ

    Nice. The wife wants one of them and they drive lovely. We settled on the zed until one of those is a bit more affordable.

    Poor zaffy

    YES!! But my kids will trash it. Thinking Qashqai.
  22. Very nice, very tidy. I light the headlight film, and Im just finding you some nudes of myself to send...think a slightly shorter chewbacca
  23. Its the same with alloy wheel theft. Unless you have expensive decent wheels, it just doesnt happen. Which causes me great annoyance when the locking nut has been overtightened on a standard set and the mickey mouse key (usually peugeot) breaks.
