  1. Hi,

     

    Apologies in advance if this is a bit of a ‘Noddy’ question.

    I wonder if anyone can help? - I'm replacing my Rays and having a bit of trouble fitting some after market alloys, on the front wheels there appears to be a stud next to the the wheels prongs that's preventing the new wheel going on, should/could this be removed?

    If so, how should this be done? - (I tried a little removing with a spanner and the wheels just spun).

     

    Any help would be appreciated.

     

    Cheers,

  2. Hey,

     

    Do any of you guys have any idea where I can get replacement front bumber reflectors? - I've got the standard orange reflectors at the moment but fancy a change to either black or white.

    Any suggestions as to where I could get these would be gratefully received.

     

    Cheers,

  3. Hey,

     

    Does anyone have any experience in transferring Australia No claims Bonus to here in the UK? - If so, is it easy enough to do and will the discount be applied here?

    Also, I hear that any foreign national here has to change their driving licence after a certain amount of time of being a resident (6 months I think?). From an insurance point of view, will this mean that it looks like the licence has only been held since the date of change over or is the licence held from the date a test was passed in the original country.

     

    Any thoughts on the above would be greatly appreciated.

     

    Cheers,

  4. I'm heading to Germany and Austria over Xmas and need to get SatNav for my iphone, can anyone recommend one that's not too expensive? - I've got SatNav in my own car but I'll be in a hire car and don't wanna waste too much cash unnecessarily.

    I had Tom Tom on my N95before some scumbag nicked the phone, I've still got the disc but I don't think that's much use to me now.

    Any recommendations or suggestions would be most welcome,

     

    Cheers,

  5. Hey Dan

     

    I've been thinking of removing my badges, possibly gonna replace them but unsure how it'll look; I noticed that your car was black too, is there any chance you could post some pics once it's done?

     

    Cheers,

  6. Having read all of the posts on this, it sounds like the driver of the Mustang was asking for trouble; I hate to see that happen to anyone's car but I'm glad to see he didn't hit anyone else.

    I've approached that hairpin before and was about to turn in when a numptie has slid past me on the inside with four wheels locked up, not a pleasant experience. That particular idiot was lucky enough not to hit me and not to end up on is roof but it ended his day.

  7. Wanted - car for my daughter

     

    sound like a good swap, is she hot?

     

     

    LOL - Excellent.

    For a small car I'd always recommend the best Honda Civic you can get for your budget, good to drive and utterly reliable.

    I got one for my g/f and she loves it.

  8. I've got a black 2006/56 facelift Zed and quite fancy removing the front and rear Nissan badges and replacing them but unsure what with, I've seen a few 'Z' options which look good on the Envy website but dunno what colour would look best on a black car? - Does anyone have any pics of these on a black car? - I thought the dark ones would maybe look good buy don't know if they'd be visible?

    Also, I wouldn't mind replacing the orange bumper reflectors with something black or smoked, does anyone know where I can get these and how easy/difficult it is to fit them? - Also, if you have any pics of these I'd appreciate a look.

    I'm gonna put on some dark wheels and ultimately would like the rest of the car to be sleek and have no other colour on it, it's currently standard with Rays.

     

    Cheers,

  9. I get my car serviced at Hypertech in Bonnybridge and can thoroughly recommend them, Bonnybridge is not too far from you if you're in Glasgow. It's Certainly a lot closer than Edinburgh and you

    Excellent service and the guy who owns it, Duncan, is real enthusiast. They are Japanese performance specialists and myself and other members of my family who have Japanese cars have been going there for over 10 years now.

    Hope this is of some help to you?

    Nice to see the Evo Zed has gone to a good home; reading about this car was one of the reasons I wanted to buy a Zed in the first place.
