Started snowing heavy here but strangleynot lying too much. And the temps meant to come up over the weekend and rain in my area...plzz wash it all away lol. Thought central scotland was getting away with it too Only what tho.....4-6 weeks before the weather picks up and the winter rubbish goes away(hopefully!)

http://www.autoblog....mercedes-c63-a/ I'd rather have that than any 3 Series or C Class... Crazy thing..and good looking!
-
So everyone on his street should just... move out? I think the point I'm making is ...circumstances is key... its wrong at times, but sometimes its ok, it doesn't cause any problems. Surroundings, people, how busy it is, how much kerb your actually sitting on. Common sense for each individual applies when parking lets put it that way? For my friends houses, its more common sense for a bit of the kerb, otherwise thats the councils issue for not making enough parking or road width..etc etc.
-
Do I have to take a picture of this road?... lol Trust me residents there can only park on that hill, thats where their cars go, theres no where else. They park half on kerb half off to be curtious, when people park on the road, it generally makes it difficult to pass and annoying to all lol (it may be in the code but its not always 'common sense' proof lol) And its not a busy road, its a cut away bit for a set of houses and no one generally goes about hitting the cars...as thats where they always have parked. I can understand a busy main road with busy pavement, you wouldn't do it (well i say that, depends on the area. If you've left plenty of room for people to walk and your car gets hit then thats the people in the area thats the issue)

One word...aw c'mon! lol The new TT;s is good quality...apart from there well know saggy seats. The old TT though...I'd pic the Z's over it any day, terrible interior, like someone just stuck bits all over the place. OOh, yes somone said Supra...get one of those (I deeply want a F&F orange replica )
-
Albeit I've never driven a quattro version but every video I've ever saw (of new and old TT quattro's) the zeds always quicker, might grip more but the TT doesn't seem to have the outright performance. Plus as said previously you'll be in a TT and no matter what version your in, it just looks like all the others to the normal joe. VX220's are SUPERFAST, couple of year ago one accelerated infront of me on the M8, HOLY SH....lol Bikes are....cold... lol They are horrendously quick as my m8 showed me one day, but honestly no... Don't buy a Seat...you'd get bored with it and its terrible insides. I think were all struggling here to get something short of someone elses modified car lol Its either older high performance or newer but the gains will be not that big
-
Why on earth you'd want to 'chrome' a car I've no idea lol. Horrendous. But we like the prrretty ladies! The Russian accent helps doesn't admit it?....
-
....wrong! lol My friends house is a kinda of culdisac hill thing, where if you don't have a drive (or you've more than one car) you have to park on the road part up and down the hill, considerate people park half on the pavement half off, otherwise you would be ...well not welcomed by the 'locals' as you'd be sitting on the road. Plenty room for cars and pedestrians to get by with cars on both sides. And as for the Z, that was one of my thoughts when I first took it up, can I still park it on the hill on the kerb, answer, with 45s yes you can lol. Just be careful how close your other wheel is to the pavement if turning in...but then you might be too far cos your car would need to cover most of the pavement! lol
-
I forgot about the Monaro VXR...good shout! Not the best inside but superb car. Yeah budget is key here I think, XKR for cheapishness the older one that is...otherwise... bring out that wallet...lol
-
Oh dear.... lol Erm, M3 of the same era...just. I dunno, in terms of speed I don't know, you don't want to spend money on gains for the Z but for a decent bit more performance you're likely to pay more for the next car whatever it might be. You might have to jump into 2nd hand 911 teritory? The're will be ones that are quicker feeling and slightly better but for the same sort of money it won't be huge jump in ..oompf I wouldn't think... unless you wanna go old...XKR..etc?
-
So basically don't use this...aargh, a mate suggested a dab of fairy liquid n' water damp cloth ?? Is fairy liquid a mild solvent of sorts? pml Arrgh damn hair gel of his and damn me accelerating hard when I want to So what would I try first? It definatly feels softer and different. Rub with a cloth and water or would that be making it worse??... Am gonna end up gettin cheap dark headrest covers lol
-
lol!!! Aye cheers Doogy haha! Kool, I will try something like that but I'm useless... what kinda solvent n' where would I get something like that...and whats a lint free cloth (yeah thats what your dealing with ...lol) Cheers for the help...and the hat Jim lol No idea why I have lines through it....
-
Ah sorry! Didn't realise it was your 2nd...or I haven't read it properly...
-
Sometimes it can't be helped Chris! lol I should maybe set a bet for myself to see if I can make it through ownership without some sort of kit, wheels or exhaust...funny feelin when its needed the exhaust might be first I love the way a lot of people are slating the kit...I assume you've all got standard zeds then? I did like the big rear diffuser thing on the 350Z Nismo and the spoiler was certainly better than the akwardly backwards facing one you could put on....
-
Mines is set for 7500, but half the time I end up changing at 6 cos my ears are on automatic pilot lol
-
pml! Soggy biscuit...aw naw, I've not heard that since school...and god that was a while ago! ..eww
-
Right, I drive my mate into work every day, he has gel on the back of his head, when I go quick his head goes backwards lol, now despite the rather obvious photo, you can't actually see it much during the day only seems to be when its cold it stands out a bit and it looks bad their cos the flash has highlighted it. Its softer feeling around the area affected, anyone got any good leather products that might remove the mark at all??.... Cheers!
-
Hmm, looks better in the red, but I don't think the spoilers and bumpers are helping its already 'stubby' appearance lol. Really don't like the front bumper... the wheels however, I want some for my 350...oh they'd look nice. Love the 'deep dish' look lol ....Didn't give it much of a power hike for all the hype of Nismo did they?...
-
Jolts in first and second in low revs... (and its winter)... perhaps your givin' it too much welly off the line or too little grip when your pulling away? (the ESP comes down like an anvil and your car will jolt doin this, although you'll see the light flicker too.... just a guess lol Can happen if the tyres are cold and you go to accelerate hardish in the lower gears, i came out of work jumped on the M8 and it still lit up in 3rd, although I was pushing a bit for a couple of secs coming off the sliproad... Oh and welcome!... I really do hope thats what it is and not a more serious issue!
-
Buy a UK car .... this talk of changing the dial facia papery bits n stuff is enough to put anyone off buying an import when its easier and just as cheap for UK.... I know ... not helpful but you asked lol Won't take long to find a decent GT. (he says..the man who took a million years to get one, but that was down to me).. http://www.autotrade...age/1?logcode=p http://www.autotrade...age/1?logcode=p http://www.autotrade...814sj?logcode=p Not so sure on the ones below, the service history has a * next to it and the other is quite low in price for a 313 and has....a bit different interior lol but meh, theres a good few out there and that was just AT. http://www.autotrade...age/1?logcode=p EDIT - Infact its got an entirely different interior in one pic to the other...ignore this one perhaps lol http://www.autotrade...age/1?logcode=p
-
... now that I would like to see! If it had the same shiny, glittery look on the wheels that'd be crazy lookin'... I like it...pic!!
-
Probably wasn't the best idea taking pics near dark... but I was 'hyped' up with my new Z style
-
I had tried to take pics cos' I'd just had the windows done at that point but even with the flash was a bit dull... I like the way the paint colour catched on the flash though so... lol
