  1. You could always stick one of these on... http://www.grillcraft.com/applications/ ... spx/2/487/
  2. Wrynose is an interesting drive but for me there are too many people on it with too few passing places and far too many blind single track corners! I love Kirkstone pass if the roads are quiet and Honister pass can be fun too. I'm looking forward to driving round the lakes a fair bit this summer.
  3. Agree 900% with you there mate Thats why I want to open a cake shop - its my plan to take over the world with cream buns When do we start Excellent idea! Stan, you can be in charge of Production. I'll be in charge of Sales & Marketing and Martin can be responsible for delivery and being on call!!!!
  4. Selling IT Solutions has gone the same way Stan. More and more often I talk to customers about cost reduction, headcount reduction, meeting "Green" targets, providing better service for less money... Oh and we'll do this by changing your IT, but don't worry too much about that... Personally, I find it moire interesting to talk about business transformation with my customers than about IT. IT is so boring!
  5. The only stupid question is the one you don't ask...
  6. Its probably worth pointing out to new users of the forum that all the JDM and UK cars are made in the same factory by the same people, so overall the build standard is identical.
  7. Yes Martin, I can understand why that would be annoying. I can turn my phone off if I really don't want disturbing.
  8. Coo do you remember the days before mobiles when people only got in touch with you - when you turned up in the office!! Mobile devices - modern evil, just ditch them, never a moments rest! I disagree with you there Stan. Mobile working has improved my quality of life enormously. I work from home a lot now so I don't have the M62 hassle that I used to have in my previous jobs (1 hour in the morning to travel 16 motorway miles to the office and the same coming home at night). I work in sales and as such my productivity is directly related to my level of activity. Now, if I have a 2 hour car journey to go and see a customer I can use that time to make calls, sort out problems and ultimately make more money for both my employer and myself. The ability to work freely, wherever and whenever I want means that if I decide to check my messages/emails at lunch time while I am on top of a mountain in the Alps, I can. This for me is a benefit because sometimes, especially when I've been working on very large tenders/contracts, I'd rather still be able to influence things than be cut off for the week I'm away. I can spend 6-12 months campaigning with a customer and if it turns out they are going to be making a key decision while I'm on holiday, I want to be able to be contacted... Especially when the commission payments can be big enough to buy a new Zed! Do you not get any personal satisfaction knowing that what you've been working on is helping your employer to meet its business targets, targets that are tangible and that are undoubtably underpinned by the efforts of people in jobs like yours? Maybe its just because I'm a salesperson... if someone sets me a target/challenge, I just want to hit it or over acheive it and doing that gives me my satisfaction (OK, the commission is good too ). Anyway, that turned out to be more of a rant than I intended, sorry...
  9. 5. The ESP switch doesn't say ESP, I think it says TCM or something like that. 6. The radio might not pick up UK stations, unless its been modified or swapped out for an aftermarket unit.
  10. Hi Gary, Whereabouts are you based, this might help with recommendations. Also, what on earth did you do to have all that go wrong?
  11. Jeez, you've definitely made the wrong choice, Zed's are rubbish! Only kidding obviously... When I was looking I was considering the S2000 or the Zed and after driving both, the Zed was definitely the one for me too to the site too

    +1 If it was fuly opaque, I'd stick it on the front winscreen just in front of the rear view mirror.... I hate it when the sun comes through there
  14. I have no idea how well they perform but they look pretty cool
  15. Personally I don't think there is much of a premium to be had for new one's over "excellent" condition used ones. If People are selling good used ones for £400 with decent tyres (i.e. with a bit of life left in them) then I think my offer is fair. You should take it Martin
  16. Interesting. I too don't care much for dyno performance figures, for me the on the road performance, the handling and the smile you get are the most important things
  17. If it was withthe aid of drugs, he should take some before every post!
  18. "What language is that?" "English"
  19. There is a company name as the Subject of the thread Stuey.... Granted, they might have offices in other countires but I would assume he means the UK.
