  1. I use infiniti at braehead and they have always been outstanding in both price and service, I wouldn't look anywhere else tbh.
  2. Oh well thats a big win then. My mate used to work in a mercedes specialist but he always said the slightly older cars were built hugely superior to the modern equivalents.
  3. Right, I follow a couple of car channels on youtube and I came across a video which has gave me food for thought. On the supercars of London channel, the guy doing the videos has an r8 v8 model. He done a video about the general running costs. A couple of key prices were front discs and pads - £1500 and a service £1100, he also claimed he was glad he didnt get a GTR as it was more expensive to run that the r8. This made me think, anything remotely faster than a zed e.g. cayman etc all have a monumental increase on running costs. For instance I have a friend with a 987 boxster not even an S and he wishes he'd got a zed due to running costs. Really makes me wonder whether spending another 6-7k upgrading a car is really worth it or putting that to use on a zed (supercharger ) is the better option. Giving huge power whilst remaining with fairly minimal running costs. hmmmm....
  4. If it has the dreaded suspension same as any other of the 500 plus era cars, be prepared for big bills. Infact its around £1000 a corner if the suspension leaks...
  5. imo there's enough room on tv for two high quality motoring shows. I'd watch if Jodie Kidd had to become one of the new top gear hosts. That lassie knows her stuff n she's no bad bit of gear either!
  6. Great looking pics and zed Just one thing... bro, do you even downforce?

    Yep I am one of them. Look forward to seeing the results.
  8. Very nice! Looks good in black with the GTR alloys.
  9. It's one of they colours if you told me that's what it is, I'd be like ohh no. However that looks amazing!
  10. I have a Bluetooth obd2 reader. I got it from Amazon. The larger black box with orange sticker works for me as the cheaper blue small one didn't work. Also with torque on my android tablet it allows me to reset my eml due to my exhausts. Hope this helps
  11. I recently sprayed mine. I just sanded mine back with a medium and fine block. Surface came up ok then applied black paint to the troubled area. For me it's a short term fix but it's barely noticeable unless you had to point it out so I wasn't too bothered about a top job. Yours look good though
  12. Looks great. Total calendar background haha
  13. Some great work already nice shots there at the end!
  14. Love the wheels. Car looks great with them on!
  15. First i've seen this build... wow!! Great work mate car looks absolutely fantastic, only thing for me the wheels need to be black.
  16. Aye I don't blame you mate. Clearly an issue that has been temporarily fixed in the hope it would last long enough to get past any warranty you got.
  17. How's the levels in the brake fluid reservoir? Could be a nick in the lines from slightly aged rubber. Or a seal on the caliber. Unfortunate times bud.
  18. Sounds like a good time for you. Now get that tank full and away a drive!
  19. sure you'll get to know Zeds pretty quickly!
