+1 what were you thinking man?

GLWS mate. My car sounds ghey without the pop charger on now. If i wasnt poor id snap your hand off.

Finally, thanks Neil! I finally feel like part of the club now

I didnt know you had Si's zed mate?!

I didnt get a single welcome viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10180

Avon do the right size, and kumho too. Dont go to a 45 though, the wheels will look tiny.

They wont affect handling at all. Take the traders advice on 25mm or 20mm... If you are keeping stock suspension you should be okay with 25mm on the rear without any rubbing but if you have any plans for dropping it, stick with 20mm. And the spacers you want have integrated bolts, so you dont need anything extra. Takes about 1hr to fit all 4.

oops missed my 2000th post earlier this week Thats a fair amount of spamming in 6 months... It took me 2 years to gt to 2000 posts... although i read more than i post.

Been talked about quite a lot on here. I think our zed wins every time That said, i like the z4's and would love a chance to try one (just cos i like driving other cars, not because i want one).

'It made me buy it' -cream eggs have that effect on me... i cant buy petrol without getting '2 for 85p' Welcome to the club.

+1 -2 Jdm rear looks far better

+1. That is mega dave.

I have been doing that this last month... makes painful reading what i have been wasting in the past. Sound advice though.

There's your answer, women are always the issue when it comes to losing track of money The missus actually manages to save all her money (maybe thats it, she earns less than me, but ends up with more. ) Andlid - I have identified the £300 a month i've been wasting, and up until xmas i would have started saving that - but now my missus isnt working, that £300 is no longer spare. However, when she's working again, i wont return to old ways, and that £300 will be put to sensible use. volks.

Thought i'd lay this to bed now... I applied for a loan at 9%, and they came back offering me 14% Screw that. I'll keep the car, and continue with the original payments. I'll find a way of making it work. I've been trying to work out how people of a similar age to me can buy their cars outright, while leading normal lives. My story is: 1.Went to Uni, 19-23. I had 3 cars during that time, all lightly modded (so lots of money wasted on wheels). 2. Left Uni and got the Job im in now. After 2 months, i bought a £10k bmw - £5k cash/£5k loan. 3. Very soon after that, left home and started renting with the missus. Paying £600pcm in rent. 4. Having had the bmw for 11 months, i traded it in for the zed, losing £4k in the process (i.e. most of my capital. Therefore had to get a loan to pay for the rest of the car. 5. 2.5 years on, i've paid off over half of the loan now. During that time, i have not saved a penny. Looking back i've had a pretty stupid lifestyle... too many meals out, had a separate drift car last year etc etc. I've probably been wasting £300 a month since i've been in work. I guess i could have saved that money during that time, but you only live once and my life would have been boring as sh!t. So what am i doing wrong?

Hi all... I'll post this on here although i dont expect to get much interest One thing to point out - it is thirsty... have been getting about 18mpg out of it. For sale is my bmw 320i coupe. This was registered dec 1993 and is an L reg. It has 167k miles on the clock. It has 5 months tax and 11 months MOT. It has a very nice sounding scorpion exhaust on it too. I bought this in december as a run about but no longer need it. Despite the mileage it runs absolutely perfectly. I've had this as my daily driver for about 1k miles and it has been spot on. No problems or noises, the gears and the linkages are fine, and the clutch feels brand new to be honest. The bodywork is in excellent condition for its age. No dents to note, and only a very minor bit of surface rust in the boot lip where the water collects. Interior is very clean. It has Sony CD player, electric windows and mirrors (all working fine), front fogs. It has an open diff, but still drifts quite well. Certainly got enough power. I would keep it as a drift car, but im skint. £1000. Messing about in the office car park:

I had one up until about 2 years ago... i got it off eBay. Turns out you shouldn't revisit your childhood memories cos they're sh!t

Dont remember that Mike. This was my ultimate 80's toy - a prinztronic tournament 10.

IIRC it's an option on JDM cars but not on UK cars I think Nixy (among others) has the definitive answer Correct. Its a rare JDM option.

WTF is with that rear bumper?

You're joking man? I love your wheels!! They're probably my favourite on the forum. I love the gotz too but i dot think they go well with colours at all. silver, white or black are they only cars that can pull them off imho.
