  1. I would be interested in one of these kits.
  2. F1 isn't about the fastest cars as they are getting slower every year. They are going the wrong way by going "green". It's pathetic and not real racing any more They have tried to close everyone up by changing the regs but have ended up spreading everyone out even more and potentially ruining the sport. Worst race I've ever seen so far In F1 the fastest car within the set rules will be at the front. Otherwise I totally agree with your post, F1 always was an awesome spectacle previously not anymore.
  3. F1 is always about the fastest cars not the best drivers. Lotus with Kimi and Grosjean the halfwit featured at the front regularly last season, let's be clear Grosjean is not one of the best drivers but proves my point. F1 was at its best when large pile ups on the first lap were regularly happening. This meant watching the first lap and the last lap were watchable, now even the first lap is not worth watching. The endorsement points for this season mean anybody who attempts a pass but clips another car in the progress will end up with a race ban. Whoopie no risk overtaking only, that's going to make things even more dull
  4. RB ran Vettel legal in the hope they may grab an odd point if lots of cars packed up. Unfortunately that didn't go well. Can't believe RB didn't pull rank over other Renault engine teams to get a so called consistent working part. I will believe its a faulty part when the manufacturer is sued by RB for the loss of points and the finance associated. But of course this won't happen will it. As far as RB are concerned rules are only there to be got around. They are playing poker with the FIA in the hope of getting there car competitive for 2014. Let's hope the appeal is thrown out and they are warned about there future conduct with suspended 3 race ban if they ignore FIA advice again. After this weekends opening event where most viewers were a tad disappointed with the race the best thing that can happen in F1 is RB are running midfield and Vettel is getting the bums rush from the young guns.
  5. Are we assuming FIA didn't have any spares at all for this part or were all the spares faulty according to Red Bull. No.2 driver not expected to be going for the championship so RB run an illegal set up to prove there car can be competitive by not running to the rules, they then argue their case in the kangaroo court that F1 has and bingo if they win the case, they are now competitive and all the other teams are trying to play catch up on RB mathematical fiddle. As previous post, funny how the genius German didn't have the so called dodgy part fitted so he can run fast get a podium. That would mean the crowd hate him more than ever because he cheats as well as ignoring team orders. Oh and the TV pundits are always going to be reminding everyone how many points Vettel would have had if he hadnt cheated. As the saying goes "if it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck you can be fairly sure it is a duck"
  6. In short they cheated and were caught, end of.
  7. I'm surprised just how much the zed does turn heads. Drove past around 20,000 Nottingham Forest fans at the weekend and they weren't half having a good look - so much so that I got a little paranoid and thought there was something wrong with the car. There wasn't - it just looks awesome. Only had my 370 a month but it definately gets more noticed than my Nismo kitted 350 got. If I park it in public areas people will definitely stop look and even walk all the way round it to be nosey. Connect premium sat nav should be on all GT cars from 2010 as standard and reversing sensors 2011 onwards. The GT Edition cars do have suspension differences and slightly different cabin trim. These cars were May 2011 onwards and are hard to find.
  8. I visited the Peterborough showroom when looking at 350's, can only describe the experience extremely disappointing, nice showroom but a @*!# attitude. I wouldn't believe a word they said regarding condition etc, they describe there vehicles as mint and when you view there's damage etc and there reply is its all repairable to mint condition. I tried to book a test drive in one of there cars and was told I would only get a test drive when a deal was agreed and deposit taken. Unless you live 5 minutes away I wouldn't bother it will probably be a complete waste of your time. I recently searched and found a 370 and even though they had a couple for sale I never bothered to travel the 25 miles to be talked to like I was a complete Muppet. During my search's for the 350 and the 370 I regularly travelled 2 to 3 hours to view cars but never found a showroom who could match there @*!# sales experience. Good luck with your search.
  9. Your only considered to be cheating in Motorsport if your caught and in this case they were caught. So as far as I am concerned Red Bull were cheating, obviously Horner didn't have a big enough backhander to sway the for the steward. Funny how the FIA's equipment was fine for the other cars. Red Bull must just be unlucky.
  10. Still negotiating the size of the backhander. Money talks in Motorsport.
  11. Red Bull don't cheat it will be put to the stewards that the rules are not written correctly and therefor there is doubt, a backhander will be passed to the head of the stewards and FIA will back Red Bull and low and behold we will all have a talking point after what looks to me as though F1 has shot itself in the foot with the new rules. The race didn't look any different to any other single seater race series, I have always looked at F1 as superior cars/package but not anymore.
  12. I always enjoy looking for a new car. I admit I am very particular customer, just can't believe you managed to pick out probably the 2 most disappointing buying experiences I have ever had. I now have 2010 370 and I am well pleased with it.
  13. Previous post was referring to the white car at go cars. Just looked at the second car you referred to and guess what, checked out this company when looking for a 350. I would not deal with these jokers ever, complete waste of time traveling to see the 3 350's that were "mint" only to find complete rubbish and the salesman was a complete dick. Wasn't allowed to test drive any car until deposit was paid. Maybe if I was a young scally I could understand there stance but I was 52 for gods sake.
  14. I have looked at this car and walked away, has had front bumper area repair. Bonnet wouldn't lift, 2 shot tyres on the rear which go cars kindly offered to replace with budget tyres. The centre console is heavily ring scratched where the previous lady owner marked it with a ring every time she put the seatbelt on. Car hasn't had the steering lock recall I looked at 5 cars before buying and this was the easiest one to walk away from.
  15. He is in Rochester, Kent. Bit of a drive from you.
  16. P3 service is due, check the service book and it will list all that needs changing for this service. Sly at Kaisermotor trader on here does the P3 for around £220 I believe. Highly recommended.
  17. Wow lost £20k in a year. At £26k I can see why its under serious consideration, that's only about £2K above a 13 plate 370. I am not going to help you but BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT.
  18. Really nice car the g37 and pearl white is awesome colour but 46k ouch!!! Feel your dilemma wanting 4 seats and the love of the Nissan v6. Not a pretend 370 but a luxury big sister from the family. Will be even rarer on the road than a 370 so will definitely get the looks. Any pictures from today.
  19. Had a trip in Sipar69's car today. The white Nismo is so much better looking than the black IMO.
  20. Maybe I will have to set up a franchise in Scotland, skimming drilled/grooved discs is a large part of my business.
  21. A little give away on here http://www.350z-uk.c...-white-09-370z/ - but we are still waiting for pics I might be a good engineer but when it comes to posting pictures I am a dinosaur, just don't get the time to work it out.
  22. Anybody know the paint code for pearl white 370. Thanks.
  23. Wow looks better than I imagined, pearl wheels here I come. Thank you.
