  1. I v driven from bari-italy to rotterdam in my maserati....and although i had the hood down i still had a severe itch on my right foot.... basically italy was 100-120mph cruising and germany either 120-140mph or stuck in traffic as they do loads of road works... i really think that you wont be able to cruise at 70mph all the time unless you are following smbd...you will give in and proper hammer it!!! as a result i never bothered with average mpg (especially when crossing the alps)... i think it was aroung 17mpg or smth... so in the Zed i should have done about 18-19mpg....
  2. I am finding the 275/35 much more slippery than the standard 245/45 m8... now i v got loads of front end grip as on 245/35 but the back end is v twitchy....
  3. Go for it dude...Zeds are bulletproof...you ll be fine... Its the 309 bhp as previously said.... you ll love it!
  4. I personally found the 050s a bit better on a dry track as they dont overheat as much...ps2 were good for a few laps and they you could feel them overheated...050s lasted twice as much... on a damp track i preferred the ps2s mainly because of the softer sidewalls and the braking grip.. one thing i loved on the 050s was the steering accuracy...such a difference to the ps2s although i agree they dont give much feedback on when the car is about to lose grip... ps i now have 245/35/19 f and 275/35/19 ps2s...and they will be only doing road miles as i v kept the rays for track days... so far i found the car to have less grip overall???
  5. "Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you" just noticed it man!!!! brilliant!!!
  6. V nice find...
  7. BANNED LIST 1. Greekman
  8. Welcome dude...i knew you was from around here from your post's title!!!
  9. I ll agree on that one.... The rest is probably his driving style...the boy is good!!! +2 I'd say its his mate that put it up and has no knowledge on how to fix the reg plate issue. wont think he will get a fine though? If coppers come across the video the car will vanish from his driveway m8... its dangerous driving... I wonder why this is dangerous driving and an 90 year old man with a hat doing 2,5mph because he cant see or respond any quicker to the time-space changes (feel free and change the individual to a cow who is telling the kids in the back seat off whist reapplying lipstick) isnt....in both cases there is no accident..... just a thought...wouldnt like to start a discussion....just a thought.... you might just have started one Mmmm but would the actually bother finding out where this guy lives, prove it's him thats the owner (do they have to?) that drove at the time, find where exactly this took place yadda yadda... just asking, dont know what type of authority the coppers have over there. all you need is the numberplate and a pigmobile...type it in and you know the registered owner, his address, insurance etc....i remember a guy, who did have a record, looking for his car the next day and thinking it was stolen he called the police to find out it was actually impounded during the night and he had to appear at the station....

  11. Never owned a turbo....am i missing much??? Before the Zed i had a maserati 4200gt with the 4.2 ferrari V8.....which would not stop pulling all the up until 170mph....then it would slowly go up to 180+... i can recall a few people screaming on 2nd-3rd-4th gear acceleration...plus a comment from a girl that can not be posted here... and i can still see frustrated turbo owners... god i am missing that engine....and the best sound ever...even on idle.... Then again it was at the garage every second saturday... plus a nightmare in the wet...not to mention snow/ice...running and petrol costs sky high....and around corners worse that a pram.... i am missing it yes...especially when i am struggling to keep up with a 330 diesel!!!...even more outside posh restaurants and hotels....but then i take the zed for a blast on a b road and i forget about it.....
  12. I ll agree on that one.... The rest is probably his driving style...the boy is good!!!
