Hi . I am after a replacment motor for my drivers side window. Car is an 07 plate gt (pre 313 but with updated trim). I stripped mine and one of the carbon brushes is completely toasted so although i have it working it won't for long !! Any traders or secondhand ones and i'm interested ! I spoke with my friendly local nissan dealer and he wanted my eldest daughter, one of my eyes and the deeds to my house ouch. Willing to collect if in the Manchester or 50 mile radius otherwise pay for delivery etc etc etc. Many thanks for reading. david

i think i just peed a little..... what a fabulous car...

i was always told powdercoat was tougher than paint and looks better...... read this http://www.k300performance.co.uk/diamond-wheels.htm

not named my 350.. but my wife just sold an all black merc ML63 chelsea tractor she called tyson... i had a range of names for it = "Divorce" - it nearly caused ours... "Tank" - it looked like one "drug dealers deliver van" - it looked like one and my favourite "That feckin strudelpanzer" - every time i paid for it to be worked on.... serviced or filled it with 98 ron... and epsecially when i put tyres on it... and at the mo she has a rented merc e class 200 thing she calls "turdo" .... it is.. it really is cr4p....

Trying to figure out why i switched from a consultant to a permanent role.... and how to sack one of my team.. I can figure the second but not the first..... oh well...

aaaahhhhh aaaaaaaahhhhh. make it stop... i love some of the quotes - What he says = "WARNING: THIS CAR SERIOUSLY TURNS HEAD EVERYWHERE YOU GO, CARS BEHIND GET THERE PHONES OUT TO TAKE PICS OF THE EXHAUSTS, PEOPLE COMMENT...." What that means = "People are taking pictures to post on barryboys.co.uk website of your horrific car" What he says = "(done a vid on my phone, didnt come out that clear..http://s665.photobucket.com/albums/vv20 ... o00601.flv)" What he means = done a specially wobbly vid so you can't focus on the horrific car... What he says = ALL RUNS SMOOTHLY, AND DUMPS QUITE LOUD What he means = IT'S THAT HORRIFIC IT GIVES ME THE RUNS AND IT MAKES ME DUMP QUITE LOUDLY I'm gonna have to stop .. the more i read the more i am roflcopter.. the list of small faults that cost a few quid to fix has got me p155ing my sides.. like "THE 5TH INJECTOR NEEDS A NEW JUBILEE CLIP (25P), IVE TAPED IT FOR NOW/" no no no it must be a p155 take.. no way.. why would you write that.. cheap chav pikey !!!! hahahah amake it stop... hahahahahahahah

Ok.. we are talking sunglasses here.. i love sunglasses.... For actually providing anti-glare and uv protection i have Oakleys.. i have the "wiretaps" with red lenses.. they are more of a sporty look.. not too cool with suits or fomal wear.. good with sportswear and casual... For Providing OK anti-glare + uv potection but looking cooooool with all dress apart from sportswear.... for that purpose i recommend prada - http://sunglasses180.com/uploaded_images/prada-sunglasses-730611.jpg did i mention I like sunglasses .... so I also have a pair 10 year old hugo boss close fitting v.black lense with no frame around the lense so they sit really close to your eyes .. they look excellent with dark suits.. and a pair of light brown lense ray ban aviators (but as i shave my head and like a bit of stubble these look a bit odd.. a bit.. well.. camp.... ) . best for everyday driving actually the hugo boss.. they have the least frame, are lightest and closest to your eye.. but on really bright winter mornings when the sun is low.. Oakley. accept no substitute.... Sorry.. did i mention i like sunglasses

manc as in mancunian .. and proud of it.. although i don't actually live in manchester.. just sort of near it .. and i wasn't born there.. i was born in "ze fatherland..." probably should have chosen a better nickname and excuse for using it !!!! reckon i might change it to "cheshiregerman"......

If my Vectra was on fire I'd video it, just so I coul relive the great moment haha.. As soon as a wrote that i thought.. i wonder.. and.. sad b4st4rds... - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-qY9fEMgUw oh well... just proves people will upload any old crap to youtube....

Welcome Andy.. Bose is a known problem and there are plenty of threads .. a quick searhc on bise and skipping will return a pile !!

I'm with Sarnie... they are tw4ts and i am sure if it was a vectra on fire no-one would vid it.. Sad to see a handmade car go out like that.. i am sure the owner will be mortified.

Hahaha... lovely to look at... possibly apart from the 356 speedster the prettiest porker but.. for me you need to wait until the 993 hit the roads for a porker that could come out of corners still going the way you want it to.... especially if you went with RUF turbo R.. The temptation to leather it would be too much.. and eventually, as you do with all old porkers, you'll hit 3+deg adverse camber on the road or maybe a bit of diesel and it will attempt to end your short but happy life by catapulting you in your 105k piece of porsche history backwards at something really heavy / hard and made of stone or something coming towards you at speed with Scania or Volvo FL on the badge.. Not that you ran out of talent.. just that these old porkers are .. well.. unpredictable..
