There is a meet at Bluewater soon. Maybe you could get quite a few zeds together. Depends what you are trying to do in your film. Andys + MadMarkys zeds would be great (like a heaven and hell thing going on).

I think the Ferrari 458 is simply shockingly stunning - it's a very tough decision between a yellow or red. If I was fortunate enough to buy one it would be the yellow since red would be the most popular choice. However, in silver it just looks too boring. This car needs to have a bright colour on it to appreciate the lines and curves with the light reflecting from it. The McLaren on the other hand will look good in silver. I'd love to see one in a McLaren F1 racing colours (silver, black, red). I still think the McLaren F1 orange will be best suited to this car. Dark colours don't do too much justice for the Mac - again, supercars should be like a party (fun, big, bright and lots of noise). Both costing around £170k apparently - this is murcielago territory. Whereas a few years back supercars would tend to be around £100 - £120k mark new, they are steadily increasing towards the £200k region. Something even the very hard working people are unlikely to achieve for just a car. If you had no kids, mortgage pretty much paid off, no major bills to pay then yes £100k car could probably be financed on a good income. However, it seems you're going to have to be pretty well off to afford cars like these in the future - i.e. millionaire and beyond rather than a fanatical petrolhead thats worked very hard and got his/her dream. Shame really...

Black car: The brand new unreleased McLaren supercar Red car: Brand new just released Ferrari supercar.

Guess what drove past my house today... I can't take any credit for the pictures (not mine), but they defo went along my street. Coooooooooooooooooooool!

lol

I work and live in London, but family are in MK so quite often around these parts too. I develop business intelligence tools (so all programs with the wizzy stats and charts, etc on a huge scale).

Result: contracted extended for 6 months.

Awesome rims. Be warned though - from experience with mine they are a pain in the a*** to keep clean. Unless its anything but a sunny dry day, you'll be going back home cleaning them. Totally stunning though...

Thank you. I'm a little surprised no one has come forward for these. When I took them off I had 3 offers for them when they weren't even for sale. They are top notch quality as you'd expect. The new owner will be getting some seriously good looking alloys for the summer and beyond from a well known quality brand, pretty much two brand new GoodYear F1 tyres on the fronts AND all the nuts, etc. They don't need to faff about with spacers as they install exactly as required on a zed. I don't think that's a bad deal for well under a grand!

Do you want to know why everything is going up in price...? 'cos everyone started buying stuff they couldn't afford in the first place on cheap loans and so on. They defaulted on the loans (since the banks just wanted cash and virtually gave it away with little checks) and the greedy bankers that sold all sorts of wonderful packages amongst themselves for huge profits got stuffed in the process as well. Government then bailed out the banks since they hold everyone's cash and now ironically people are asking why stuff is getting expensive. You're paying it back via the high tax. Don't shoot me for my comments. I agree that there should be tighter controls about the rate at which it rises but it's very easy money for the government to rake in to the ease the deficit and so on. I'm by no means defending the government, but at the same time I am not defending Joe public. Loads of muppets gave cash to even bigger muppets and now we (including myself) are having to pay it all back. Am I annoyed about it? Yep. Is anything going to get done about it? Nope. Why? Because technically everyone is to blame in the bigger picture.

Strange - they have two prices: http://www.z-store.co.uk/index.cfm?fuse ... rentCat=77 I paid £150 for mine - not sure if the other link is old or not.

To be fair it is very good quality and was hand made in Japan, then shipped over here to the UK (took me months to get it, yet I have another on my zed). The RSW parts are a marmite thing, but they do honestly transform the interior from that horrid dull plastic look that is starting to look dated. Remember folks - I'm selling this 40% off list price and is quite hard to get hold of - I'm almost certain you won't get it at this price again when brand new.

Hi, Click here for full detailed pics (lots more than below so you know what you're buying) - 46MB. First to PM me secures product(s). BBS 18" Alloys - Sold £700 New OEM Gear Knob (Black) - Sold £50 (+ delivery costs) New RSW Carbon Door Handles Covers - Sold £25 (+ delivery costs) New RSW Carbon look handbrake surround - Available £10 (+ delivery costs) - NEW PRICE New RSW Carbon Dial Cover -Sold BBS Alloys Info: I have for sale (just in time for the shows and summer to start) 18" BBS RGR forged Alloys. Collection only. > Includes BBS nuts and locking nuts with key > Fully forged single piece alloy > No need for spacers (they fit on the zed perfectly) > NO scuffs at all - look like new > Bright silver with chrome offsets (they look awesome) > Fronts are 8.5 J x 18 > Rears are 9.5 J x 18 > Fronts have almost new Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres (loads of tread left) - unfortunately the rears will need changing with fresh rubber. I have Goodyear F1s on mine and they are fantastic tyres - very strong and grippy (work well in wet like dry) They are all cleaned and ready to go. If you are very very close to them you can see extremely minor blemishes in a few spokes towards the rear (very few and far between); you really would have to be god damn close and picky to refuse them. Detailed photo's show this, so I am being fair on the new owner. Not trying to be funny but weekend collection only please (I work away from home during the week in London). Collection from my home in Dunstable - close to Junction 11 on the M1 (pretty easy to get to from all directions). They won't fit in a zed when collecting - however, they will fit in an old model fiesta with back seats down (tried and tested), so anything bigger than this will be fine to transport your new alloys home. (Example: on my zed - was used in **REMOVED** Calendar) New RSW Carbon look handbrake surround It's made by RSW and covers over the handbrake. The material has a carbon look to it - I never fitted it because it was more trouble than its worth but someone might find it useful (cost £70 from Envy at the time) - never been used. As modelled by Envy store:

Thank you.

You've got the car. You have forked out your hard earned for that expensive exhaust. You now want to make a symphony of noise all around you, but the question is where are all the tunnels? Scouring maps and looking on the Internet for them to incorporate on a drive can be a long and painful process unless you're 'in the know' - and even then you may miss some. There are hundreds of them across the UK, yet no one has actually plotted them on a map - until now... UK Road Tunnels I've teamed up with PistonHeads to plot all of them across the UK (they have agreed to make it a sticky). If you know of some road tunnels, help out your fellow petrolheads by signing into a Google account (setting one up takes only a few minutes) and plot it on the map with the following details: Road: Length (approx): Direction: [direction of travel] Description: [speed limits, safety cameras, likely times of traffic, etc] Next step: Go out and make some noise!

As crazy as this sounds but Force India seem to be a dark horse this year. Another Team Brawn maybe? Some serious competition this year. Schumi won't come back just to play around - he knows he is a living legend and has something to prove that he still has it. Lewis is on the top of his game too. Alonso + a Ferrari is always going to be a lethal mix for competitors. Button will no doubt push it to prove he isn't a one trick poney. Don't forget the other German - Vettel (he is a future champ for sure given the right car). Also there is another Senna in the line up... All I know is...this season is gonna be GREAT!

Hotmail is one of the largest (if not, THE largest) emailing service on the web. The reason there is little personal support is because of the sheer numbers involved. They'll end up getting a zillion emails and phone calls every day and then people will say that the support is crap and not worth having (they'll be there forever trying to help individuals, when they could be getting on with upgrading, improving it all for everyone with no hassle). I know what you mean though...
