  1. gave you a second look as i went past on the bike.... nice looking car!
  2. too right! sod their feelings... you dont know them from Adam. see proof of insurance, some sort of ID, driving licence... and if they buy the car and pay cash count every penny and make sure you put notes under a UV light. i dont care what they think.. if they have a prob then they may well be hiding something as i would expect all the above to apply to me if i was buying
  3. stuck it on the debit card...... decided that the interest rates are so low i wasnt earning any money by leaving it in the bank so i thought i would have some fun.... 350z roadster, new bathroom, 2005 ZX12r, new oak floors and holiday to San Fran so far...
  4. yesterday about 4.45pm Azure roadster (south croydon) (with the roof up????? the sun was out man....) GM coupe with blacked out centre piece under front grille (south croydon) Yellow Coupe (coulsdon) this morning GM coupe (south croydon) passed you all on my new blue ZX12r
  5. crashed smashed and driven like you stole it! i guess nobody has any ideas
  6. anyone have any ideas what would cause the heater to occasionally blow cool air when set on warm?... have the heat set at a constant lets say 25 and now and again it starts to blow cool.. if i wind up the temp it blows hot again so i am guessing its electical rather than an actual cooling problem? no other symptoms and not causing any probs and with a nice hot summer on the way i dont suppose i will really need much heat but in the dying light of a sat eve with the roof down and a chill decending a bit of warm air is very welcome! 2007 facelift roadster if it helps
  7. serious question and not wanting to undo any deals on the group buy as i was interested myself but was there / is there an issue with using an undamped main pulley? maybe better places as a technical question i guess?
  8. I reckon these are looking good at around £380 delivered if I can get 6 people interested. Just working out the finer details but this is looking a goer. could be VERY tempted!
  9. drove past the stoke pub as i was waiting to cross for my buy one get one free pizza
  10. Mark i know we all say get the mods all done in one hit then get an uprev but.... if i were to have already have had an uprev and tune done by you (which i have and have been very happy ) and i were then to add a couple of bits that may then mean i need some dyno time to dial them in (lets say lower plenum or maybe exhaust or maybe even both) would it just be a matter of pay per hour for the dyno work as i already have the uprev licence? ignore me! i just realised you had already answered the question on a mail ages ago... blonde moment may be in touch soon for a remap
  11. i have bought and imported a spoiler for my roadster and have just got to get it painted to match now. total cost of buying and importing was about £100 plus of course the painting costs
  12. Nice one Will, the drive in the first few gears is great now eh.... think you will find Mark prob used about quarter of a tank doing all the tuning runs mate if your wondering where all that fuel went.. plus the heavy foot on the way home
  13. yep ok fair point but..... the fella is looking for Facelift 350Z Roadster GT MY07 Mileage under 30k black or silver off a dealer Budget is around 15k i want a lamborghini gallardo spyder and have a budget of 15k doesnt mean that i am going to find it a quick search on autotrader finds lots of black or silver MY07 Facelift roadsters with under 30k from dealers but the budget will have to be more like 16k and up unless you can do some bargaining with the dealer. i recon go look at some of the 16k ones and try knocking them down or buy slightly older one if the budget is the sticking point
  14. you can get a facelift roadster 07 plate in azure blue without the bonnet bulge with under 20k on the clock and in great condition for the sort of money you are talking about... i know as i just bought one then buy a bulge bonnet and fit it and you will not know a lot of difference.... get an uprev and you have the best of both worlds... bit more torque and the higher rev limit and peak bhp
  15. SEAT Leon Cupra FR150 TDI 40 - 50mpg and LOADS of fun oh and keep the Z for the weekends around 6k will pick you one up
  16. think i prefer my explanation
  17. paid a huge tax bill last year only to get told this year that i overpaid and am owed £1100 back this year.... Result!
  18. you didnt book Will in for the Uprev while you were there then?
  19. thought i would add my name but im already on there
  20. ok not the best conditions out there but been for a bit of a spin today.... what a difference! 2nd and 3rd gears are fantastic now! much more like the kinda of feel it should have left the factory with so much more responsive. well pleased! looking forward to some warmer less slippy conditions now even more so than before
  21. got a tuned ZX12r and love it! 174bhp at the rear wheel and have seen an indicated 202mph (more like 185 corrected) have had zx6, bandit 12, TL1000s, FZR1000 and ridden loads more.... great fun but can be dangerous! have a scar or mark on each limb and most are due to stupid drivers. will try and dig out a few pics
  22. depending on time i could be up for a coffee at Rykas on sunday not warm enough for there to be loads of bikes there yet so should be plenty of room
  23. depends what your buying it for? for me the Z is a weekend toy, fun in the sun and something special for now and again use so it had to be a roadster as when that roof is down but if its a daily driver... i guess i would still have gone for the roadster but i can see more of a reason to have the coupe. at the end of the day its your choice and its gonna be whichever one you prefer
