Lucy escape there mate - yup the Zed is a pretty tough car on the whole except for the paint of course!
I saw your post about the OAP. Was gunna say that you are lucky, at least the animals arn't out to get you.

there are two bits of plastic the have come off behind the bumper but they dont look important.
If you mean the wheelarch liners, they do stop a lot of water getting into the electrics
As you look at the front of the car its two bits of plastic either side of the front grill.
-
Hahaha, something like that. I will get it next time tho!
Had the RAC out, they had a look at the car and took it for a test drive. As far as they can see everything is fine and there is no damage!
Well done nissan for building a tank.
The car is going in for new breaks anyway next week so i will get them to have a proper look then.
But for now the only thing that needs replacing is my underware.

Yup. The cat sat there and watched the whole thing. Bastard!
-
Thats good to know. I am going to require new underware tho.

So, driving you work this morning i turned left onto a road in the usual spirated fasion. All was going fine untill a cat jumped out in front of me.
Naturally i slammed the brakes on. Unfortunetlly for me, my size 14 clown foot slid off the break pedel and onto the accelerator. So rather then slamming my foot on the brake i slammed it no the accelerator. End result was that the back of the car came well out. I over corrected and the car changed directons and was pointing at the other side of the road.
The front wheels of the car hit the curb and mounted it and then the car came to rest halfway up the verge. After i had finished shi**ing myself i backed the car off the verge and drove the last 100m to the office at about 5 mph.
I have had a look round the car and their is no obvious damage. The tyres still have pressure and i cant see any dents on the wheels.
the bumper is still attached and aprat from being a bit dirty seems fine. there are two bits of plastic the have come off behind the bumper but they dont look important.
I have the breakdown services comming out to check it over and i have my fingers crossed that i am lucky.
What sort of things should i be checking tho? I really wasnt going that fast when i hit the curb but would rather be safe then sorry.
Thanks

I thought the arial for the birdview sat nav was on the window. Is it not that black stuff by the rear view mirror?

I am going out to Thialand in two months. I will remember that joke as a warning!
-
I can vouch for these guys.
Had my car serviced with them last friday and i have nothing but good things to say about them!
-
I would actually go to that! However, not this month as my car is far too dirty. I would be ashamed!
Come along. Mine hasnt been washed in 2 weeks and its not likely to get a wash tonight. Its more a social thing than a car show
Mate, My car is BROWN! To the best of my knowledge brown was never a paint option and i vaguly remember it being black once upon a time.....
However, I have a squash match at 8.40 and Comet is kinda on the way so will see what i can do.

Anubis----- I know this must sound like im talking $hit but had to get my pc repaired as there was a virus and it was slowing it down and all the stuff i had on my pc the music and picstures an stuff all got deleted. Just to make things clear a little i didnt pay cash for it, i got it on finance and sold it after 6 or 7 months as it wasent that practical owning 2-2 seater cars. Im not bragging or anything all im doing is typing what car's i have owned thats all..
Do you have any paper photos or did your dog eat them?
I drove the lambo last year on a track day and loved it. Am only messing with you cos i am jealous!

First Car at 18 through to current (23)
1. Renault Clio Mk1 1.2 (R Reg)
2. Mitsubishi Colt (E Reg)
3. Ford Puma 1.7 (W Reg)
4. Nissan 350z GT (06 Reg)
The Colt was great fun. Was actually kinda nice having a car that you didnt care about. Although it was very prone to stalling, which was odd since it was an automatic!
-
I cant believe how many young oiks there are driving 350z's!!!
I am 23

Well its sorted now!
I was gunna take the door cards of myself but i couldn't find a guide of an 06. So using logic, i called the RAC out thinking that if the door card was broken, at least i wouldn't have to pay for it.
The RAC bloke was a lovely chap who took the dooor card off and the plate behind the door card. At that point he reconnected the switch and gave it a try.
Low and behold it started working and has been working fine ever since. He swears that he didn't actually do anything!
It will prob break again at some point but for now its working, which is great!
Thanks for all the help.

Had this today with my drivers side window. Only diff was that it was fully down at the time.
Took the door cards off and the plate that holds the regulator, gave it a try and as if by magic it started working again.
No idea what stopped it working. Might be something to try tho.
Help Please, a cat tried to kill me!

Yeah, i think i will be giving up to.
Just took the car out for a spin. All seems fine. doesnt pull when driving or braking.
It was my own fault really, it wouldn't happened if i had the traction control on. Got into a sticky situation and ran of of skill.
There are a few bit of plastic that have come off the bumper but they should go back on with ease next week when the car goes to Japex for new brakes.
