neither should he, we are supposed to be a like minded community Wouldn't really call it an attack as such, as he was asking a ridiculous price for his car and someone called him on it. If words like "lying cheating thieving git" had been used then that would've been quite inappropriate and would've deserved some kind of modding. Should a community let people rip off it's members, whether it's intentional or not? I've not been here long enough to speak for this place, but personally speaking I feel that any kind of locking or censorship of FS sale threads does nothing but hinder the community as a whole. There's a difference between passing comment and having an uncharitable pop at someone.

Agreed, but he did it on a public forum where he knew people could post anything they want after he left. If he didn't want comments then he could either have asked a Mod to lock it or simply post somewhere else.

If you don't want comments on something, then don't post on a public internet forum, vis a vis the Silly Hat Rule. You may enjoy wearing your Brand New Trendy Hat and want to post pictures of it on the interweb, but if I deem it to be a Silly Hat then I'm perfectly allowed to tell you so. If you don't like it, then don't post. This place seems pretty sensible to me right now in that you're allowed to pass comment on things for sale ("That's really nice, proper bargain!" through to "That's overpriced tat") as well as ask questions in open forum, but if the OP doesn't want anything in their thread then they can PM a Mod to remove it for them. Assuming the Mods are happy with this then it seems like the best of both worlds.

Fair enough, good work that man!

Ooh, care to share which company did that % thing? Or are you not allowed? Sounds just like the kind of devious thing that certain companies would actually do, the bastards.

Proof or I call BS. I'd only ever buy from the DVLA anyway, as they're always cheaper as the other companies simply buy from them and then put their percentage on top.

Out of interest, what number plate were you thinking of buying?

I've used Redline MT-90 in the past and it's fantastic stuff, would definitely recommend it and it's what I'll use on the Zed when the time comes for me to change my gearbox oil.

In short, no. In a more detailed explanation, also no.

Bonnet will make you faster. Exhaust will make you and others think you're going faster. Numberplate will probably make you look a tit unless it's tasteful. HTH

Given that they got a 4.9 out of the 313 Zed, then just 0.2 secs quicker is believable. It might have been nice to know a bit more about the drive rather than just statistics, but we'll have to wait for some proper reviews I guess.

Just remember that if you stay above 40mph you won't get wet, so there's no excuse for not having the roof down 95% of the time! Welcome along matey.

See, I really like the Panamera and think it looks a lot better than it has any right to. I wouldn't buy one myself even if funds allowed, but I don't think it's as hideous as some of the guess-art looked. I have to disagree with you there. Almost every car manufacturer in the world has gone through some pretty severe brand changes in the last decade or so, and they've had to as the competition has changed. Ford now produce very good cars as they've got to compete with BMW, and Vauxhall are just about turning the same way. Toyota = boring and safe, and so on and so forth. Porsche needed to add the Cayenne just to make enough money to survive, as 911 and Boxster sales weren't doing it for them. It all very well and good to be able to say "Oh, we're a sports car company and that's all we'll ever do" but if it's not paying the bills... No-one mocked Aston when the Rapide was shown. Same principle in essence. Okay, so the Rapide is somewhat better looking than the Panamera, but the needs are the same.

I hate that the two buttons are so close together, the amount of times I've gotten soaked when trying to turn the TC off as I pull away with the roof down is ridiculous!

For that sort of money for that sort of car I'd be getting something with a Maserati badge on, not a BMW one.

You don't have to literally use your heel and toe: I use either side of my foot and just roll across as my limbs don't bend like that either.

We had loads here But now it's all gone

Well spotted! Guess they haven't made any with a Nissan badge on yet then.

It's 10K lighter than the 350Z.

I actually don't like the way the detail on the spokes isn't central on them IYSWIM. That would irritate the hell out of me.

With the bungs in you'll be fine on the static, but I would bet you'll trip the drive-bys easily. Don't forget that you get no second chances there any more, one tripped meter and they send you home. I'm banned by the missus from driving into multi-storey car parks with the bungs out any more as I set all the alarms off and she gets a bit embarrassed and somewhat angry at me...

Fixed. I like the full-size glove box that's only half-size when opened. Brilliant. And the less said about the pedals now the better. And yet, worryingly, it is better up close than I thought it would be. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's better than the Cayman interior as I really don't think it will be going on the photos, but it's certainly a step in the right direction it seems.

What's EVO got to do with anything? I'm perfectly capable of deciding that I prefer RWD to FWD on my own, thanks. Like I said, I really like the 182 but would never own one. That good enough a FWD car for you?

Bingo. The new RS is going to be nothing more than another FWD scrabble wagon, regardless of how good the chassis is or what the super-trick LSD is doing.
