  1. Looking good Bounty! I spent 4 hours washing mine last Monday, with the intention of not driving it all week. Pressure wash off all big dirt Wash with megs shampoo and microfibre sponge Dry 1 coat of Dodo Juice Purple Hays Wheels cleaned using Dodo Juice Mellow Yellow Wheels waxed with turtle wax wheel wax 8am Tuesday morning - 10 pikey builders turn up with jack hammers and 2 tonnes of sand to rip up and replace my next door neighbour's drive. F*ck So i ended up driving it to work all week, and even had to take it out on a business trip, so i've ended up doing 300 miles in it, which id normally do in a month. So i gave it another clean tonight... just a quick rinse really but it was nice and easy... and a top layer of speed wax. The car's now fully loaded and set for my 4am departure... tyre pressure's checked, wheel nuts torqued ready for the track. ***Reminder*** anyone with track time - fill in your indemnity forms now to save you doing it in the morning. Bring your paper part of your driving license, and bring some tape to stick the track session decals in your window. I nipped out to take a few pics when i was done, but it was already dark so they look naff...
  2. I was going to use it on the outside... i stuck it to my rear quarter panel and it was nice and firm... went in the house to get my car keys... came back and it had fallen off and was on my driveway...!! So... i wont be using it on the exterior
  3. Now thats a blast from the past...! I used to have those pics saved on my old PC as inspiration for when i got a zed!
  4. need a video of this in action i think
  5. 7 now, ah man...!! dont whine lol i'm coming all the way from scotland pmsl and get up on saturday morning at about 6.50 Exactly, im coming down on the Saturday from near Manchester... ...i'll be the one sleeping in my car all day.
  6. Has anyone seen this yet? In firefox, right click on a webpage and choose ‘inspect element’, then from the bar at the bottom choose ‘3D View’. The forum looks great!
  7. Hi all, My mate at work is 28, but only passed his driving test 11 months ago. He's got a 1.6 litre 2005 Fiesta, and for his first year of insurance he paid £5000!! He had a bump last summer, so has no no-claims, and the cheapest insurance price we can find for him to renew is £2500 for this year. His job description is 'Account Manager', and he does approx 20k miles a year (12k business use). We've tried all the comparison sites, and we've set his voluntary excess to the maximum. Can anyone recommend any other tips on how to get his premium down?? Or any other insurers that specialise in new drivers? His renewal is due on the 13th May so we need to be quick!! Cheers.
  8. +1 Square rear plate looks more aggressive... plus it's a more authentic JDM car
  9. Yup, me too. Just get a set bought man...!
  10. I always wanted a 350z from when they first came out when i was 17/18... i always used to buy them in the Need For Speed Underground games, Gran Turismo etc, then i got on when i was 23.
  11. I had a quick play tonight... camera mounted on the passenger window with a suction cup. Was quite late and going dark though so forgive the lighting. Im very happy with the wide angle view... able to see out both the driver and passenger window in one shot I will rotate it a couple of degrees to the right though next time so i get a more even view. The only down side is the passenger A-pillar is right where you want to be looking at the horizon. Maybe i'll try it out on the boot window tomorrow.
  12. Ok, a crap picture, but yesterday i washed and waxed my zed with a bit of Dodo Juice Purple Haze... picture doesnt do it any justice, but hey.
  13. Ooh i've just swung it to 3/4 view...! End the poll now!!
  14. Yep, picked mine up from the store today - very happy with it! Thanks OP! Suprised how big it is Only disappointment is how short the power lead is... i cant put it anywhere that i want.
  15. Whats that now, 5, 6 sets of rims you've had?! Looking very though
  16. I read yesterday that it's just one quick press to turn it on, and a long press to turn it off.... maybe it's turning it on and cycling though the first setting for you? Although i think mine is just the GoPro Hero HD, not the '2' so could be different.
  17. Wow... looks a lot better doesnt it. I got mine out of the box today and charged it up... and figured out how to turn it on!
  18. Cool, cheers. I'll look forward to the video. I was going to go out and try mine today, but i washed the car this morning and now it's raining Im going to try mounting mine on the passager rear-quarter window.
  19. If only the rear of those DB7's hadnt dated so badly, they would be quite tempting now. But then for that money i'd rather have the current shape XK as it's a beautiful looking car. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p
