Get the Cayman. When you have the money to upgrade just bolt on the Car Graphic turbo kit And if you get one of the special edition ones strip off the naff graphics down the side http://www.evo.co.uk/carreviews/evocarreviews/242815/parr_porsche_cayman_s_turbo.html

Thats crazy! Thanks for the heads up. I realise winter tyres are in short supply at the moment. I think my straetgy will be to put them on my Rays next year and then buy a nice set of Rota's for my summer tyres
-
Thats a good price - didn't think you could get them that cheap
-
Hey Alex! Are you going to wade in and tell me you have alloys and winter tyres in stock?

Great to hear that they are effective on the Zed Been thinking about getting these myself as the Zed is the only car in the household. Given that Aberdeen temperatures are, on average, below about 7 deg C from Nov - Mar it would be worth putting these on during these months everay year. Now for the questions..... What brank/model of tyre did you get? Did you order them online? (Had a look around on the net but I couldn't locate anything in Zed sizes (for GT rays). Price? Do you have two sets of rims? I'm guessing it will cost ~£40 a go to have the rubber changed over and balanced so you are talking £80 a year on changing between the two sets of tyres. Easier and porbably cheaper in the long run to buy another set of Rays... Chris

Looks great Ground clearance looks good on the front splitter too - should be very driveable. Has the car been lowered? I think filling in the back surround of the headlight in black would really finish the front off nicely. Chris

I don't get it! So they have a cross roads with no traffic lights - ok we have that as well but someone has right of way which is clearly marked. I can;t see any signs on their road- how does that work? (Well I suppose the evidence is in the video!) Awesome link!!! Chris

Cheap solution - get an offcut of carpet, lay the bootmat down as a template, cut, lay the carpet under the thin bootmat. Provides extra soundproofing and saves money for the next mod

All due respect for having a 7 year old car in mint condition. I have a 53 plate and I keep it in good nick. Have had a few comments as to how good it looks for its age - if I had a personalised plate no one would know how well I keep it... Chris

The guy who has the 12k number plate on the Orion - hey, I can understand that. If you have that much money you need to find something to spend it on! Why not spend a ridiculaous amount on a number plate. It's like buying a watch for 20k, gotta get rid of the money some way!!! The people who buy old Jags and put a personalised plate on them - ya I can understand that, or more to the point, I understand what those people are like. Those lot are quite different to the Z community with bling wheels and big spoilers!!! Still no reasonable explanation in my mind as to why people don't treat their car to a "nice" mod instead of a plate with your initials or nickname on it!!! I'm Irish and we don't do personalised plates over there. Maybe its a cultural thing!!!
-
Nah, sorry still doesn't make sense!!! Is this one of things where you get it or you don't!!!! This idea of having 'CHRIS' written across the front of my car doesn't add anything in my opinion! However, a nice carbon splitter, that looks cool!!!
-
I don't get it...what is the point in a personalised number plate? Ok, i can see the point in a plate with very few digits because it can look neater, but getting your name or initials across the front of your car - why? And some of these plates are very costly Why not just get stickers with your name and paste them down the side of the car
-
I love the way they made a load of (bad) mods at the front and then ran out of ideas for the rear!!

Lotus Evora - 4 seats (technically!), good looking, could buy a brand new one, EVO car of the year and rare, I still haven't even seen one in the flesh....

Pretty incredible! He's a master with the carbon fibre! Fail on the exhaust though!!!! http://www.audiogroupforum.com/csforum/showthread.php?t=66958&page=79 Chris

Love it! Sounds like you scared the crap out of a pheasant while you were at it!!! Chris

Espuma TDS - see post for good results... http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=41486 Chris

Any magical increase in performance (or smoother idling) with the earthing kit?
-
Cheers Tim. That's impressive stuff. I have used stuff like Autoglym Bug and Tar Remover in the past but I have never seen it dissolve the tar to that extent. As you say though it's probably very only very badly tarred examples - don't think I would let the Zed get in that state! (let alone a Continental GT some people have more money than sense!!!!!)
-
Look great Quick question - the close up shot of the panel with the streaks, is that the remains of tar spots after the Espuma TGB? I normally just wash and go straight for the clay bar to remove the tar. Does this stuff loosen it before the clay bar? Cheers, Chris
-
Q: Can I mix and match different types of tyres? A: No, not if you enjoy living. Q: What is typical MPG? A: City: 17 - 23 mpg, Motorway 27 - 32 mpg Q: Is Zed ownership expensive? A: Yes (Relatively speaking for a 3.5L rear wheel drive sports car, it's about what you'd expect)

A new Monkey Island game has been talked about for a long time so I had a quick look at the LucasArts website.... No new Monkey Island but they have remastered Monkey Island 2 with upgraded graphics etc. http://store.steampowered.com/app/32460/ £6.99 - Bargain! I'll be reliving my childhood this weekend!!!

Played just about every game of that genre... Monkey Island 1, 2, 3, 4 Zack MacKracken Indiana Jones Last Crusade / City of Atlantis Day of the Tentacle but not Leisure Suit Larry I'm afraid if I played it now it would be a disappointment
