  1. Give the guy a break! He drove off a mountain 2 hours ago......taking piccies might be a little difficult!
  2. I feel this coming our way
  3. I did wonder at the price of this! I must have spent 90 quid in sand paper polishing mine!
  4. Sounds like you've already done loads of research from the extensive amounts of information available. What works best for you?
  5. I'm sure this one was discussed at some length somewhere with divided opinion. Had a few more problems than now declared too!
  6. Its a slam panel dude
  7. Bear in mind you'll need a dealer who actually gives a toss once you've driven off the forecourt too
  8. Too one looks cool.... Reminds me of the batmobile.
  9. unlikely you'll want to mess about changing tips mate - just flog it and get a stock box.
  10. word of warning - take it easy until you get used to the power and switch to RWD......you wouldn't want to stack it in the first week of ownership!
  11. I got some areo blades for my Z4............snapped them into pieces for being utterly sh**e.
  12. They seem fairly popular on other forums MR2/Supra etc.
  13. Has anyone mentioned the search button yet?
  14. Odd swap like but all the best. Seems a bit like buying a 4 bed detached (with whirlpool bath AND wetroom) then deciding to buy a studio flat because you couldn't afford the running costs like but each to their own.

    Opinions?

    Definitely one for the Yank market!
  16. That is messed up good!

    Ebay exhausts?

    I don't think they have ever been discussed on here before so there is literally no point using the search to check.
  18. You've answered your own question there. Well not really, because there are a lot of rims out there that look better imo. That's why it makes the fact that so many people have gone for ROTAs so strange. Yes really. You said 'it's strange that so many people buy Rota's' and followed it up with 'they do suit the car though'. Which is why so many people have bought them. I'm still going with Not Really on this mate. They suit the car...yes. But so do many other rims....and what surprises me, is that out of all of the options that Zed owners have to choose from, so many have gone for the same wheel. If there was only 1 set of rims that suited the Zed and that happened to be the ROTAs, then you'd have a point, but from a statistical basis, the odds of so many different people all coming to the same conclusion from such a vast array of options, is as I said originally, "a bit strange". If a wheel suits a car and is a reasonable price then people buy it - the post piccies up and when people want to consider a new wheel they search for piccies to see what it looks like. Rota's look good and therefore rather than take a chance on another wheel where fitment or piccies are not available they go for the safe option. Plus as said above they almost look OEM which is often the preference for some people than going a bit 'out there'.
  19. Your options Import http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p CAT-C (in case your not sure what this is .....it doesn't refer to the engine purrrring) http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p 170k on the clock (only 68857 miles less than the distance from the Earth to the moon which could be a good talking point at dinner parties) http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p Unfortunately all at 5k which is a grand over your preferred 4k.......I'd have a rethink personally.
  20. Lose the pop charger........that'll round up a few ponies!
  21. Always a good way to wipe the smile off his face is to ram into his car at 30mph jump out and go 'its alright mate don't worry - my cars only worth 7k'
  22. Good turn around especially given the temperature! I bet there were a few numb fingers on the go there!
