  1. For those of you that dont know, wacken is the greatest music festival on earth. There is no other festival that has such a large beer hall, or a section dedicated to viking and medievil stuff! Plus you get to camp next to your car (Thats one of the reasons i am renting a van rather then driving the 350!) Maiden played there last year and thin lizzy (the bits that are still alive anyway!) were due to play there this year untill the split up.
  2. Lol, didn't think so. Doing an epic road trip there. Will be driving a var rather then the 350
  3. Are there any metal fans on the forum making the trip to the holy Wacken land this year?
  4. Any other drawbacks? How much space does the the tank take up?
  5. Hi DiggZ Thanks for the info! Do you notice any proformace changes running on LPG? Also how big is the tank and how many miles does that see you?
  6. Was wondering if this has been done to a 350? Since LPG is half the price of petrol it would make an attractive prospect if it didnt ruin the car. Any thoughts?
  7. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/coast/tides/tides.shtml?date=20090630&loc=0040 You will have to look a bit closer tot he time i think.
  8. Both of the mounts that go into the strut brace and enable you to screw the tonneau cover in have broken off. I have spoken to Nissan that they want £100 for a whole new kit. Is there a way of buying the mounts without the kit or does anyone on here sell them?
  9. I went out at low tide and i really dont think that there is any chance of you getting on from the UK side. The IOW side isnt so bad tho.
  10. Most of it i can rub off with my thumb. There is a thin line remining which i cannot feel with my nail. I will give it a good clean and try the autoglym stuff, hopefully its a lucky escape!!
  11. Is that the shuttle as in Le Shuttle?
  12. Well you are a braver man then I. I would have said there there was no chance of getting the car on there. Did you touch at all?
  13. Pulling out of my girlfriends drive, a branch from a tree has given me two nice long scratches between the roof and window on the drivers side! BOOO! The good news it that they seem to be very light and i can get most of it out with my thumb. What is left is a single very light line. Whats the best way of trying to get rid of this? I have some Autoglym deep black polish, would that work or is there another product that would be better? Thanks in advance
  14. Yeah, tiny little one. Didn't even have a bar on!!!!!

  16. This weekend i went to the Isle of Wight by ferry. Since we had need to transport more then 2 people, my girlfriend drove and it was a lucky thing too cos there was no chance of my 350 driving onto that ferry. The angle of the ramps was so sharp the at best i would have lost my front bumper and prob the exhausts. I thought this might be to do with the fact that we crossed low tide but we came back at high tide and things were no better. Has anyone run into any problems taking their cars on ferries? Its prob worth staying that my car is totally standard.

  18. Thanks so much buddy. Might be a few mins after 6 depending on traffic! Also, the PM hasn't turned up?!?!?
  19. Thats its!!!!!! It only happens at speed. All it needs is a very light touch and it will stop. It does sound metalic!
  20. A rattle has developed in my car that is bugging the s**t outa me. I am pretty sure its coming from the plastic triangle at the from of the drivers window, where the wing mirror mounts. Does anyone know how to remove the plastic cover?
