  1. Looks like apple are trying to break into the Chinese market by introducing a cheap version to flog to the Chinese to compete with android who now have something like an 88% market share of the smart phone industry.
  2. Contact the supplier, good year are normally pretty good, might just be you've been unlucky and its a bad compound mix.
  3. Just a pity about the driving position and no steering adjustment. Nice car though And the "Space 1999" dash. The digi dash rev counter was brilliant, especially on the track, far easier to read when pushing the limits and easier to glance at than any dialled car i've driven. it had a nice big digital speed readout and a nice big digital rev counter. worked a treat.
  4. Its a Marmite car, some love them, others hate them. Its been a real pleasure owning mine, its not as tight or as light as my old s2000, but Its the longest I've ever owned a car, absolutely love it.
  5. pretty much, the x150 is to the x100 what the 370z is to the 350z
  6. you have to remember the X100 series XK's (the one above) is one of the longest running production cars ever, started production back in 1995 as the XK8 the XKR didnt join the line up till 1998 and it didnt have a facelift till 2001-2002 and that was minor, its proper update the newer X150 (the latest XK's ) didn't come out till 2006. and they're still going. the 350z never managed 11 years in production
  7. it is as one of my good friends refers to it a "luxo barge" great distance muncher in good comfort with lots of gadgets, and classic lines its possibly why they've already started going up in price for well looked after examples
  8. looks like darrens, and if it is it will be immaculate and run superbly
  9. don't use the word front splitter, as that is a performance mod if its an actual wind tunnel tested motorsports item, what you have is a front lip, or front bumper body styling addition. that should put you back on the insurance list. although it sounds like you found a new insurer. best bet is to use the likes of sky insurance, or Chris knotts or Adrian flux etc, they are set up to deal with performance and modded cars and offer; in general a better and more comprehensive service, and you get to speak to a knowledgeable human being.
  10. Yep they are the jaguar wheel upgrade (one of a bout 5 styles) made by BBS. They are the 20" BBS Detroits, they take a rear Tyre of 285/30/20 and a front Tyre of 255/35/20. Those ones look to be in silver, I have mine in the rare oyster gold.
  11. I have a desk, but I'm so busy I never get to sit at it.
  12. Same wheels and colour as mine, but that ones an XK8 as there are no bonnet vents that I can see in those pic. Looks like its got the 6 pot brembo upgrade.
  13. Old slam panel wrapped fitted stickered
