  1. How about the annoying seatbelt? Cheers CS! And some picks after a quick clean / inspection - full detail in due course
  2. Drove my new zed home tentatively ... but loved every minute of it. 'Tis is beauty - fully loaded, well cared for and awesome. But tyres need doing and had a random question - is the drivers seatbelt supposed to be twisted? Annoyed me! Cheers Rob PS Will search tyre threads soon but any suggestions welcomed... FK452s, Michelin or OEM?
  3. New zed tomorrow

      Update needed !!!!!!!

  4. New zed tomorrow

  5. On the verge of buying this exhaust. This or the Milltek. Does it drone at all mate? Don't care if loud when gunning it (it should be) but can't stand the droney pitch that goes through you on the motorway with the 'wrong' exhaust (for me anyway!)
  6. So, I'm off to pick her up tomorrow. Any last minute points to look out for? I've read the buyers guides etc, so will be doing usual used car checks + tyre check / listen for clicking / check of all interior electrics inc stereo and windows etc. Wondered if there is any areas which rust or whether this would be a sign of accident damage on a low miles 2007 car? Car is 26k, 2007 313 in black Any other 'tips'? Cheers Rob
  7. Is it just me or is loads of content now broken ?
  8. Do these fit HR 350zs ... And are you still doing the £825? Cheers, rob
  9. Shows as unlicensed on dvla check - SORN usually shows if it has been...
  10. Ok, I will try to get him to tax it beforehand. Thanks
  11. So as I'm buying it - if I test drove it and got pulled over (prior to buying it) - the existing owner would 'get done' If I choose to buy it - walk immediately to the post office with insurance cover note, mot and V5 new owner supplement - tax it, drive away, then I'm OK? I understand if you don't SORN it now it is illegal - but presumably for the owner, not me? Cheers Rob
  12. Hi there Picking up my Zed on Tuesday - checking the DVLA search on the reg it is showing: Vehicle enquiry The enquiry is complete.The vehicle details for BLAH BLAH are: Date of Liability 01 07 2012 Date of First Registration 23 05 2007 Year of Manufacture 2007 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 3498cc CO2 Emissions 280g/Km Fuel Type PETROL Export Marker N Vehicle Status Unlicensed Vehicle Colour BLACK Vehicle Type Approval M1 Vehicle Excise Duty rate for vehicle 6 Months Rate £261.25 12 Months Rate £475.00 Does that mean it isn't taxed? Does that matter to me as a buyer? Thanks Rob
  13. Chaps, thanks for this - the sextons links on all the guides show the parts as not listed. I guess that was my concern was all the loom adaptors etc - where the heck do you buy them? I've googled and one is available from the US ....
  14. Hey guys I'm looking to replace the Bose HU with an aftermarket double DIN jobbie.... The car has Nissan sat nav fitted. I've read through the guides etc but some of the info is dead or the products not available anymore. So is it possible to fit an new stereo, retaining the bose amp and speaker config, steering controls and sat nav? If so, how? Thanks in advance Rob
  15. The high power silvers look good. Very bright and with a pearl finish ..l
  16. Hey guys After picking up my new zed next week, it will be off for a wheel refurb to ensure it is mint... 2007 black car on rays... Trying to decide on refurb colour. Am thinking silver, hi power silver or a black shadow chrome but wanted views... Thanks Rob
  17. Thanks mate. Loved it on track though . What a cornering machine !
  18. Yup, I did indeed. What a money pit it was too, lol
  19. I've always used and recommended Gliptone for leather. A lot of leather products contain silicones which make it squeaky or slippery. Gliptone is used on premium car leather, horse saddles, furniture etc. Apply the cleaner with a mf cloth, work into the leather. Remove with a slightly damp mf. Once dry, apply the conditioner with another mf. Work into the leather with a leather brush or soft nail brush. Job done. When I pick up my Zed next week one of the first jobs will be detailing geekery prior to winter - and Gliptone will be coming out
  20. Oooh, I do love a waxing. Detail freak joining here.....
