Wish i had a 10th of that guys driving skill, chatting away power sliding out of corners with the precision of a god!

Guessing it's a T5... http://www.performance-angels.com/led.htm

EVO mentioned a couple of months back imports are charged at pre 2001 VED bands, so it will save you a couple of hundred in road tax each year on an import... Something to do with the SVA test having no CO2 test, so without a CO2 reading the car can't be banded.

+1

Spotted the schoolboy error and sorted it.... must have been the focus on the camera

Depends on what year the car is for 2009 either £300 or £400, from 2010 we'll all be paying £455.

+1 Does seem to feel like if you talk about it people look at you like some mad man preaching about the end of the world.

Seeing as it's all gone a bit quiet in the press, anyone know if theres any news on a u turn/reduction on it? Mec

Argh yes the terrorism card, the panacea for all the country's ills.

We're all doomed!

Great news, hope they can get the parts sourced asap for you.

Can't see why they are messing you around, it will be under Nissan manufacturer warranty... so it doesn't cost the dealer and they will get their labour covered by Nissan. I've had a box replaced before on a Honda which was just coming up to the end of it's manufacturer warranty (dealer added a year on top at purchase)... I told them to do it quick before it hits their part of the warranty and their pockets, they replaced it and a full set of alloys as they were corroded too. Got to stick on top of them though! hope you get it sorted.

Totally with you there, had an E30 in the past, 3 series went a bit supersized after that. They still look small in America

Doh! oops

OCD doesn't describe this man... http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=81391

p1ste i went with the megs carnauba wax, it lasted about a month. So i put some nxt2 on it after. I think i will give the paint cleaner a go next time as there are some staines under the paint wax which the clay missed

why didn't nissan put a handle to close the boot... save grabbing the paint and the computer button would have been better on the steering wheel.

Which it will do because it as to cater for the inexperienced driver No problem in just switching it off, i rather like the idea its on by default and lets face it if you bent your zed because you forgot it was off by default, you would be blaming Nissan. True, I'm no stig nor do I drive it like it's stolen, just does seem to come in more than i've noticed on other cars... things like off camber bends and fast turn in etc, probably a good thing really

Steering weighting spot on

The bose, sounds as good as it looks... cheap ESP is turned on by default... it comes in to early, makes you look like you missed a gear off the lights!!

fog light? edit -- doh! was thinking it was the button on the left

Could be the batteries, the first key that dropped off I replaced the battery on (CR2016).

I wonder if that is proof of the Z dialling out mods... I've got an ODBII cable what program you using? Curerntly using DashCommand (digital dash generator) and Centrafuse (has an OBDII plugin). Both give throttle percentage. One thing I am still sceptical about is what the number actually means. Will try a throttle reset at some point and see if that gives us 100%. I doubt it will, but worth a punt It's worse for me highest I registered was about 84% (used proscan)

One thing I noticed while doing it, is you can't see the lights flash as it doesn't illuminate the dashboard indicator signals. You just have to count how many times the indicator relay clicks (the relay click sound comes from the passenger side foot well).
