  1. using your hand is the proper way to apply carnuba wax. IMO rim wax is a waste of time fk1000p is great. although I tried megs #16 it works better than most speicalised products.
  2. I think shine stuff is flexible.
  3. What advice is he gonna give other than what steddy has said? Have a look http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7744 right and pming him will do?
  4. yes because he is selling you it. What advice is he gonna give other than what steddy has said?
  5. Put a video up and we can tell you if it's rasp or rattling.
  6. you tried paisley freight? is it just a door? You can get pallets delivered for £75. I dont live near just trying to help.
  7. It wont damage it as such, but for example look at lets say bulletmagnets car. Speak to him look at his car you can tell he takes cares of it. This IMO is worth alot more than a crappy stamp and an oil change with the wrong viscosity (hello 80% of all nissan dealers). Or me I dont use a dealer to get my oil changed but I do it myself every 5-6k with silkolene. I bet my engine is cleaner than his. I dont rag it from cold. I take care of my car as do 99% of most owners on here. This is why buying from the forum is better. Im not saying he is a git, I dont know the guy. Its how you are protraying him that i preceive him. From everything you have said makes him sound like a git. As Sarnie has said if he did have other buyers it would have gone by now. I personally think and am only saying this because the forum is here to help people but to leave the car unless its alot cheaper. I know your the one with the money to burn but everyone has posted in here has taken time out to type their opionion to help you. You could ignore the opinions as you dont have to take all of them on but people have said what they have for your benifit
  8. service history IMO means nothing. Did he use 99ron? Did he rag it from cold. The way he is doing everything means that anything done sounds like a botch. Obviously you know the guy now and you say he is a nice guy but your doing him no favours, you make him sound like a right git
  9. why do you want this car? Nice people sell nice cars... I hope not but it sounds like the guy isnt nice and i can bet he hasnt taken care of the car. He could of sold his car that he no longer uses, remember he didnt even have an mot or legal tyres, doesnt sound like he cares for it much. all IMO of course.
  10. Do they give out better light?
  11. The pound sign after the numbers is dodgy

    New M5....

    BMW have always been about the bhp thought wheater it's cos they are usually more focused and revvy than the merc or because the headline bhp Sells cars I don't know.
  13. Resonated decats flow no less then normal decats just tone the sound a little. if you have decats on your car and say they are silenced no one will belive you
  14. IMO I would go with the h-dev silenced decats
  15. Ive got a dab internal ariel and its much better than the fm one outside.
  16. Good job Your doing my reversed mod I want to remove the idler pulley Them ramps look great I hate jacking, axle standing my car I feel like a job once I've done that.
  17. If they where headlight protectors I wouldnt mind but they are horrible.

    i bet in the next 10-15 years over half of them will close though. be a real shame though. its something we're actually quiet good at, ok the main car manufacturing might suffer, but the bespoke stuff like the motorsport technology will grow, as its not a mass market, people will pay the premium for the skilled people in the UK to build it/design it etc as they are some of the best in the world. I agree, but when you look at the politics of the UK, Labour is broke and now heavily funded by unions (not meaning to turn this into a polictal debate) but if they get back in and do what they usually do there will be no manufactoring. In the US if they need anything done to their car there is alot of people catering for the car market but we dont seem to have that market? I hope these are nothing like the middle aged mg's like the mgzr I thought they where horrible.
  19. isnt that if going aftermarket shock?
  20. I agree with you kinda, but am I wrong in saying your an older more experianced driver? If your an old skooler you have probably had many many cars that are rwd and are used to it. Most of my generation are scared of rwd and they think its gran turismo style that you keep spinning out. Honestly when we where younger and still my freinds now say i like it but its rwd that puts me off. I always drive with it on, but it never comes on though. I dont push the car hard as Im still very much scared of it.

  22. None taken, I didnt even notice the light coming on TBH. Must have been so concerned with the oncoming traffic I didnt even look at the dials. Whats more worrying is that Abbey didnt pick that up.... agreed, that is worrying. Maybe the guys at abbey can drive

    why the face? You expect them to make reasonbly priced cars here? why not others manage it? I surprised BMW are setting up a new plant in England, but high tax, vat, high costs of staff and all costs that go with staff e.g. holiday pay and all that makes it hard for them to do business here.
