  1. cool cool, some of the ones i have found come with the foam jobby, are DoDo waxes held in higher regard than autoglym HD? Sorry for all the questions Jak
  2. i'm with admiral, same age as you with same no claims and mines about £800ish i don't have the claim though. Jak
  3. Cheers Ian, that was one of the ones i was looking at - also saw Rainforest rub at a good price but the ad dosnt say what colour car it suits.... Do you just use a microfibre cloth to apply, then another to buff off? Jak
  4. My car is Gunmetal, is there a particular one that would be good for that? Jak
  5. After looking at some of the DoDo Juice products and noticing they have a variety of diffrerent waxes i was wondering which one/ ones you guys prefer/reccomend? Thanks Jak
  6. i really like he Zele orange one except the wheels, in my opinion the standard dark wheels would look much better with the orange. So..... Any takers on the Red one? Jak
  7. Jak

    05 or 06?

    isn't the tax almost double on an 06? Jak
  8. 3FIDDYZ is correct, the 1st UK cars were not available with sat-nav, hense the Tom Tom. Sat Nav is availabl now but the waiting list is a bit of a bugger. After thinking about it i think the non sat nav is a blessing in diguise - now, with aid of Tom Tom (or similar), you can view how much G you are pulling whilst taking the "next turn on the left"!!!
  9. i actually really like the nismo stickers , if i can ever afford to buy a nismo/nismo replica kit i will really consider stickering up!, would paint lip skirts and spats black too probably
  10. HAHA yeah always good sign!! - I dont know why thats there actually - he's still in the running in period at the mo though so maybe its just precaution??
  11. the red looks so much better in the metal than in the pictures too nixy - i always thought white would be my fav but since seeing this one it got me thinking! i saw a white one at JTS this year and as i was walking up to it i couldnt help but think it resembled a storm troopers helmet from the side!!! (before i owned my Z otherwise would have come over and said hello to a few people at the 350z-uk stand!) was still deciding between an ITR DC5 and a Z then.
  12. ha ha, yeah still no good i'm afraid! Wish i could afford it, but there is absolutly no way i can + at 21 insurance would be mental!!! Jak
  13. Hi, A few of you may remember me posting a few pics of my Z with red R35 GTR. The Owner of the GTR is now definatly selling up so i thought i'd put a post on here just incase any of you fancied it! Its a Red UK premium edition with dark wheels, black leather interior and Bose etc, not 100% sure how many miles it has but will be sub 2k i think! Asking price is £53,995 which i think is pretty good considering the waiting list! This price does not include the private plate (V6 GTR) the car would be supplied with the 09 reg. Drop me a PM for more details. Jak
  14. Okie Dokie, i reckon i might go for the Autoglym to start as we seem to have alot of there products kicking around the garage and it seems pretty reasonably priced too - then if i get on with it i may go posher next time (ie Black fire or DoDo - I will be splitting the costs with my bro anyway so not such a bigoutlay really!) Thanks alot for all the advice, will get some result pics up when i get my arse in gear! Jak I must say actually when i polished the car this weekend i used a microfibre cloth to polidh off with as apposed to the standard polish cloths and i really think it made a great difference to the shine - anyone else agree with this?
  15. and you would rub it in using small circular motions avec les applicator? as you would with polish? Whats the consensus on Autoglym High Definition Wax? Jak
  16. oh dear i fear i'm going to sound very naive now - having never used a wax before how do you apply it? perhaps foolishly i assumed it would be similar to applying polish Thanks for all the help too by the way! Jak
  17. to be honest its not even as frequent as every other weekend, but i would say probably at least once a month - maybe i should cut back! i think the shine is addictive! Would you polish / clay before applying the 1st coat of wax just to make sure no crap is under it?
  18. Hi, When i wash my car (most weekends) i use Autoglym car shampoo and Autoglym Super Resin Polish or Ultra Deep Shine (Only polish every other weekend ish) and am always pretty pleased with the results - However i am considering buying a wax to use occaisionally too, am impressed with the results i've seen from Blackfre Ivory Wax - the only thing worrying me is the price £38 a pot it ait cheap is it! What would liketo know is: RoughlyHow long/ How many applications would 1 Pot Last? Are there any good alternatives (possibly slightly cheaper ) Also am i right in thinking you apply the wax after polishing? I also have a Maguires claybar kit i am waiting to try out at some point. Thanks in advance Jak
  19. De-badge/ Paint badge black? Slam it with small alloys? low and slow style (lol Just kidding!) Or even..... http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/08/ ... 68x319.jpg
  20. Tah For that i'll have a search for that then - but sounds like a lot of fiddling about for a fairly minor change at the moment i must admit! Jak
  21. R35 GTR? even has rear seats..............
  22. How to or if it is even possible to remove the grills/surrounds for the speakers behind the seats (not the sub the other ones) Plan is to paint the rings the same colour silver as the other silver bits up front i.e. door handles etc! Has anybody done anything similar i can see a piccy of? Jak
  23. Provisionally Sold - Pending Collection Tonight Jak
