  1. Search really is your friend!! http://www.350z-uk.c...steering-wheel/ Many thanks, the guide is really good, cheers !
  2. Is it a big job to remove the wheel in the first place? What tools are needed etc? These wheels do look superb!
  3. Finally fitted my newly dipped console today. The actual dipping was by Aquagraphix. Got to say very pleased with it and the service they gave.
  4. Really liking this, tried to send a PM but it says, "not able to receive" any ideas?
  5. A little further north granted, but I have always had superb service from Nissan Harratts in Sheffield. They have a few 350/370 trained mechanics and have always given the impression that they care about the cars and customers. I am very picky with who deals with my car also.

  7. Have a look on wiggle.com I tend to use them now rather than legging it to a real shop. MTB tyres can be crazily expensive at £25 and up each, but I have just purchased a couple of Continentals from Wiggle for about £12 each I think. They seem pretty good so far anyway.
  8. Superb ! Loved the E type section loads.
  9. I went for this one:- F1 OLL My nickname is Oll and I'm a big F1 fan. It was far more than I wanted to pay but it was the only fit that really meant something. (I initially wanted V6 OLL, but that wasnt available)
  10. I asked the other half, what's the difference between a girlfriend and a wife, when she said she didnt know, I replied, about a stone and a half. I thought it was funny....... she didnt.
  11. oops, I have a Lexus IS as my day to day car. Thankfully is a company car !

    Car covers

    I went for the indoor cover from these people:- http://www.coveryourcar.co.uk/ Fully fitted, good quality and not too expensive.
  13. The floor mats look in pretty good nick
  14. That was the second time. They did a P1 for me this time last year. Can't fault them at all. Well worth a visit if they are local to you.
  15. Had the Z given its P2 service today. Once again Harratts Sheff did a great job. Very pleased with the service. Ask for Peter on the service desk, very helpful Also had the plugs changed as the car is 5 this year. I supplied oil and plugs, so cost was a very reasonable £240. Its the first time I have driven the Z since about October, as its away in storage at the moment. Have to say loved driving it again. Grinning like a loon as I went for a spin over the snake pass afterwards to give it some exercise.
  16. 41 years old. 3 points. only 2 years NCD (As company car driver for 17 years) 3K max milage PA. £500 with Sky.
  17. Thats one well cared for Zed. Looking very good !
  18. Welcome ! I was in the same boat as you. Loved the 350 when it first appeared and have wanted one ever since. The usual, "what car would you love" chat got the usual replies from mates, but a "Nissan 350Z" from me Best thing I have ever bought I think.
  19. Alfa 2.4 jtdm. You wont get more than 30 to 35 to the gallon though. 200 or 210bhp standard. Mangoletsi in Cheshire will "warm them up" still under warranty to 230 - 260. Mine was about 230 and very rapid. 5 pot sounds superb too.
  20. I had a 2.4 159 before the Lexus. Got it new and took it to 120K miles in three years with no problems at all. Loved it !
  21. Have a search on google as there are some sites which work out the tax for you. I think one is called "car or cash", or something like that. I would also factor in things like insurance (You need full on company car cover) and tyres etc if you go it alone. You only need to damage a single tyre in a month to go badly into the red. If you go for a copmany car, just be really careful on the CO2 rating. My 2.4 Alfa nearly killed me on tax for its final year, as it was 179g or something.
  22. did you even read my post? they arent all arrogant *******, granted some are but a lot are just horse owners who want a good day out. its kinda like saying all football fans are hooligans who want a fight with the opposite supporters after every match stereotyping. and it makes you look like a fool I also speak as I find and I have only ever met total arrogant kn*bs. I would wonder why decent folk would even want to hang out with the local hunt here. I would like to think that these guys and girls are very much not the norm
  23. I'm not against fox hunting, just the sort of people who do it, and the way they go about it. As a landowner I agree that foxes are a pest, but they should be kept in check in a humane way. We have had many run in's with the local hunt here, who are arrogant pr**ks, and think they can race across our land damaging walls even without our agreement. The last time they tried it got a little out of hand and the police had to come. I won though
