It was only very recently that I realised (well, was told) that on the dash of 99% of cars the little arrow next to the fuel light points to the side the flap is: Prior to this amazing bit of knowledge I'd routinely get out of different cars to check which side it was

unfortunately - that little nugget isn't quite true - the manufacturers haven't all "signed" up to it and many don't follow this so obvious good idea

Shoulda pushed for the cargo net too mate. I want one, but not prepared to pay 89 quid for what is effectively some plastic clips, string and a bit of bungee!!

damn - I forgot about that

You know when you have haggled enough when you know they are about to walk away. Then haggle a bit more

my counter arguement to him was - "well you know Cardiff is only another 20mins up the road and they've already agreed......"

so he gave in

including 2.5K off list - so I'm happy with that

I know its slightly off topic, but

Wouldn’t it be good if someone could invent a heads up display (like the BMW on the windscreen) That would display text messages. Because I get these more than calls on my own time and they are just as tempting to have a "Quick look" when driving but infinity more dangerous...

now that I would be impressed with

I haggled ........ a lot !!!

and will get

luxury car mats and half a tank of fuel

is it true that you have to pull over to make a "hands free" call ?

whats the point in that ???

I just got this from work. Is this the right brake fluid and the right quality?

 

your Z appears to have fallen over and shrunk

As long as the car is out of it's warranty period I think it's ok as Chris says some one may try and use this to chip you on the part ex price, but to be honest I would rather see that the car had been well looked after. The only thing I would point out that a stamp in the book isn't always proof of service history. So if you could get bills that would be better. But if you dad is doing it for free that might be problematic but I suppose you could get the bills for the parts?!?

I was under the impression that you could take it anywhere - so long as the independant used genuine Nissan parts, then the warranty would be unaffected ........ is this not right ?

There's some pretty weird (and nasty) comments posted below the vid

I had a black merc - but as has been said, tends to be a fairly common colour colour and a nightmare to keep clean (wonderfull after a wash tho)

now have a white audi TT - really stands out, you get noticed, but... if a fly sits on it (and usually pukes up on it) its VERY visible

I've now ordered the 370 in black rose - who knows how this will turn out

these are the only photo's I've found of the GT ed in this colour

as the old proverb says - never buy a used hire car !!!

or something like that anyway - maybe I just made it up ?

damn - that sounds nice

as above with AM stickers up for sale in Pembrokeshire - you lot get about a bit !!

going to pick my new car soon (ish) - I've read on detailing world that it will need to be clayed etc and cleaned from "scratch"

Is there a need to do this ?, is there an easier way ? or will it just need a wash and simple wax ?

am in the process of ordering some stuff from Tim at envy - in the basket so far - wash mit, drying towel and dodo supernatural test pot

welcome

A one person thread? Yes

don't pick on me - I'm allowed to be excited

1560 hours to go - date been brought forward slightly

this could get annoying couldn't it

so for me @ 414 miles round trip - that would be an extra £124.20 + the bridge toll ?

He has gone a long long way further than that before. Just arrange to have a few done in the area at once

dedication !!

so for me @ 414 miles round trip - that would be an extra £124.20 + the bridge toll ?

because the window is already tinted - taking it over the 70%

This thread would be more useful if someone could point out what exactly is wrong with the ad.

 

Ta.

it's not a "black edition" - ie the 40th anniversary edition - its just a plain old (probably) GT Pack 370Z

Good to see them keeping residuals high

thats what I was thinking

thats what I'm hoping with the GT edition

one of the nissan garages i visited had a le mans blue in stock - he told me that was a black edition
