Agree with what's being said above. Sadly the price of Zeds has dropped ot the point where they are cheap to buy they will always be relativley expensive to run. My concern at looking at the cheap end of the spectrum is that corners will have been cut in keeping the car in top shape which could mean big bills further down the line. If you can find a good one for £5.5k then fair play, but go in with your eyes open.

Great write up Ian, enjoyed the read and I'm sure it will prove useful to others memebers considering going FI. Getting bored of the GTR already? Let me guess, TT 370Z?

Just set off a bit earlier, cruise at 70 instead of 80, and that will make more difference than any 'economy map' would.

I would say don't do it unless you're feeling flush. It results in a marginal improvement, probably 5% more power at best. It will feel a bit sharper the first couple of drives but then you get used to it and it just feels the same as it always did. It's a nice feeling to know that your car is running the best it can, but is it worth £400? Debatable, as this thread is proving!

I'm driving a GTR tomorrow (amongst other things) will let you know my thoughts.

I cannot watch that video at work but I saw an RX8 with Bentley wheels on at Castle Coombe a few weeks ago. I have to say it looked terrible, and can't imagine they'd look much better on the Zed.

Pretty much spot on then. Possible good news next week re Trinidad, come on Range!

24 hours until what? An RNS?

I wouldn't get too excited mate, there's been many false dawns with this one. I'm still a holder but am not expecting any massive share price jump on the back of PL's update (but happy to be proved wrong!).

Was it wet? If its kicking in a lot when its dry then you need to learn to drive more smoothly!

Most of my mates call me a chav for driving the Zed! All in good humour of course, they're just jealous

Re the Vettell/Button incident, I think Seb should have got a penalty. If Button hadn't yielded (just carried on as he was) Vettell would have driven into him and more than likely both of their races would have been over. In that scenario Vetell would have been world champion. Sorry Seb, but that's not the way to win a world championship. Had there been a crash it would be talked about in the same breath as when Schumacher took out Hill to win the world title (1995 I think?). Lucky for you Jensen is a true gentleman racer who backed off, but just so happened to beat you on the day anyway.

Wow, that's a real stunner!

Give Pimm a shout, he runs a Perfect Pizza. Might be a bit far for him to deliver though

He's got an R34 now, so I wouldn't be too sad about it!

Yikes, that's rubbish mate. Still, a good excuse to drop a VQ35HR in there.

You might find this thread interesting Number86, lots of views on why the 370Z hasn't sold so well.... http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/to ... z%20worked?

Would like to hear the end of that story! Hopefully it involved you keying his knee caps. Big sympathy to the OP, shitty thing to happen.

GB sticker?

Thanks for the info mate. It's definately a squeak rather than a click (sounds like something rubbing), but matches the rest of those symtoms. I'll have a read of Husky's post.

Noticed at the weekend moving slowly in traffic that their appears to be a squeak coming from my rear axle. I'm guessing something has worn/needs greasing. Any ideas?

Saw this car at the Autosport show back in January, but for those who haven't can I just say

I've taken my Zed through a safari park beofre with no issues, but thankfully the monkey enclosure was shut due to a syphillis outbreak!

no replacement as of yet got a few things i want to do first. getting wed next year and starting up a sidline company, but im always gunna have that ich. im only young and still have a dream car to get and to get it im gunna have to work my b$*ls off. i will def pop along. i saw you today on winterstoke road about 3.30 Good man, I can always give you a ride along.
