  1. My nightly drugs test, apparently its compulsory for me
  2. Wow Steve thats a dish and a half mate Not for me as you well know but look stunning mate
  3. Happens all too often though, obviously not very well moderated...
  4. Or is James Dyson perhaps the most patronising self righteous @@@@ around.... Yes your minted and you make overated, overpriced vacuum cleaners but let someone more charismatic do your adverts....
  5. Bet that was fun :drive: I am sure some will disagree but I don't think racing through the gears to 6th at 40mph is really very economical... Far better to keep aware and off the centre pedal
  6. Meanwhile he's just had his bike pinched Or been crushed between his side door and the car door
  7. A bit tight when I get out of my Zed in the garage, I have to push past the washing machine, tumble dryer, fridge, freezer, 2 zed seats, 2 door cards, roof lining, racking for all the cleaning products, fish tank and stand, coffee table & wardrobe..... I feel your pain but surely the situation must have been obvious to anyone with even the most rudimentary spacial skills
  8. Actually I am off tomorrow night now so if Joy is feeling under the weather just say the word
  9. Enjoy Papa G and I am not in the slightest bit jealous Take your autograph book and camera as there are bound to be a lot of celebs there..... well not the ones that are in the Jungle but fortunately they are the bottom feeder end of the celebrity scale
  10. Offensive to Brummies and Asians....... much like On a serious note, if you are gonna scam at least do some homework and make it 'look' reasonable, i.e. arounfdthe £15k mark.....
  11. Sometimes. Damn traffic! Painful on the fuel needle and the bank balance...... but then you haven't got a woman to waste it on I wouldn't say waste it on. The right woman would not be a waste of money.
  12. There was a thread a while back about when to change gear etc for fuel economy blah blah blah and I had a bit of a rant people were saying then that you should change up and be in 5th gear at 30mph and 6th gear at 40mph and I just honestly couldn't believe it..... I tried it and my Zed felt like it wanted to strangle me I don't drive around like a boy racer revving the nuts out of the car I just can't see why you would race to change up the gears in pursuit of mpg when if you drive sensibly it will not be that bad anyway
  13. Sometimes. Damn traffic! Painful on the fuel needle and the bank balance...... but then you haven't got a woman to waste it on
  14. Yep I find the gears pretty long in the Zed, as I said have to be doing 60+ to change up to 6th.
  15. New tank all sorted, just got to fix up the lighting and some plants.... Old one going on eBay as soon as I get it cleaned up
  16. Used to go out with a bird from Thamesmead......... rough as fook, the area and her Glad you got the surround sorted, they are unfortunately not cheap
  17. The trip computer is never far off for me, you do have a UK Zed that has the 80ltr tank yeah...... If you have then on a long run like this you should get 500+ miles to a tank easy, thats not even 30mpg, I get that on a 50 mile trip to Surrey
  18. You must do a lot of stop start driving..... do you ever get above 30mph ?
  19. 6th at 38mph I think thats your problem, change gear when the engine tell you not when you think you should.... I only change up to 6th at 60-70mph it has been discussed on here many times but changing gear at too low revs is NOT economical especially in a Zed, 2k revs minimum, ideally 2.5k revs.... I am pretty sure my Zed would stall if I put it in 6th gear at 38mph
  20. Iv'e gone from London to Newcastle on 1 tank and had enough fuel to last me a couple of days up there Averaged 34mpg I think and it was a lovely drive, stopped once at services just past york I think
  21. Why not just paint the ones you have and then source replacements if you **** them up........
  22. When I got into work last night there was what I can only describe as a Smurfs naughty toy on my desk..... Now I have always been a good friend of a certain Mod but this 'hint' may be a step to far even for me
