  1. Looks good bud, always wish I had held on and not got the birdview, its ok but I could have done better.
  2. Whatever you do will have been done before and probably will be done many times again mate.
  3. Go blue, I have a black one and they are a lot of work. Check throught the posts for points to check. Best of luck and Welcome.
  4. Think you need to review your guest list. If you are quick you can probably catch in depth analysis on BBC 17 or whatever. If not it will be repeated. Ahh, Top Gear Re-runs,
  5. get thee behind me satan! Least with Windows you would have somewhere to throw it out of if it doesnt work
  6. Sibierski again, should have made him captain but cant take it from Stevie G. Bring on the Blues
  7. Possibly the worst designed car ever, a TR7. Pop up headlights failed numerous times. Three cylinder head failures. Not a shock. Take a marina gearbox, an overworked 2 litre engine. Cobble them together and call it a sports car. I used to share it with the local garage 1 month with me, the next with them.
  8. Deserved to win anyway, well done.
  9. Best of luck with it, bloody technology
  10. If I had bought a camera it would have cost more than the car.
  11. And to summarise all this good advice Nixy, its a matter of what the car cant do, once you know that you will be fine. Until you have seen how far you have to go to get it wrong you will still be wondering. In the early days I accidentally knocked off the ESP and tried a simple right turn onto a town road. Took a few seconds and a bit of rubber to work out why I wasnt moving.
  12. Are all the cars in Chesterfield ZEDS
  13. Sounds like you have got the special version... A timeless classic!
  14. And only get a Kuro if you love polishing and are prepared to vacuum the road before you use it.
  15. Used to be the learning curve, buy what you can afford and keep it running. Also scary to remember the distances I used to go in them. They were all great at the time apart from the TR7, really still do hate it. 6 points for speeding and 3 cylinder head gaskets blown. My father also had to tow me back from Doncaster to Barrow with his Marina. Took 8 hours and we didnt speak for weeks afterwards.
  16. I hate being a passenger in a zed, only done it a couple of times but it s the hell out of me.
  17. Hi and welcome to the Forum mate. Very impressed that you have the patience to wait til September. When you get it you will see why. Great car. Then again as everyone else in Chesterfield seems to have one you can get a lift on a Zed anytime
  18. Triumph 2 litre Vitesse convertible. And for the thread " what was the first car you wrote off" Triumph 2 litre Vitesse convertible.
  19. Northbound on the M6 near Tebay, nice wave for a change. I was in the Kuro roadster.
  20. Think I may be too late on this one so... Welcome back, hope you had a great time.
  21. Sad really, should take the car down there where it will be suitable. I drive an L200 ovr there. Glad you liked it Johnathan, cant beat a quiet day in Potros!
  22. There are some advantages of living in the North then
