The wonderful thing about roadsters is that when you take the top down you experience the visceral of sound...well, in most you do. As per all the other EV stuff, numbers do not impress me, theatre does - the constant absence of that makes them not worth the effort. Unless i want a car to drive from A-B in a sensible dull fashion of course Pretty sure will get one at some point in the future when I dont have to remortgage to get one but for fun, not a chance.

Welcome back

I guess its a good buy if you are just looking for a shell to drop new running gear and engine into as a bit of fun - but otherwise why take on all the hassle. I am with the doc on this, if it was fixable the dealer would fix it and sell it at a better price, clearly there is substantial issues with it and wouldnt expect to spend peanuts on it and pat yourself on the back for having done over the dealer...

To compound it, in theory, you could be standing on the bottom of the planet - depending on where in space you are looking at it from

If you are driving on a northerly directional road, then its quite legitimate to have a sign saying 'To the North' at any point though right? Until you clear the North Pole in which case signs should be 'To the South'

The North Circular A406 is depressing as ... it really is the pits.

Physical age or mental age? I mean that sincerely, as I think it requires a bit of maturity - the 'kid' that bought my zed I preached to for about 30 minutes about how to drive it assuming he knew nothing, turns out he is in the army and drives challenger tanks

Might need a few thousand pounds worth of repairs for all we know if its smoking/engine light on - tread carefully!

Works for me, on my laptop, you trying it on mobile Stu?

Welcome along! I think with that many 6s in the car you were doomed For your parts list, have a look through the traders on here, Tarmac, Torqen, Cougar Store, Horsham Dev, Abbey etc can all source you parts/fitting at competitive prices.

The guy that bought my Zed brought the cash in a brown bag, it was a fair amount of money. He turned up with a mate and we literally walked to the bank together and I got him to pay the cash into an account of my choosing. The bank then checked all the notes and the money was safely tucked away when I handed over the keys. Clearly if the guy is dodging tax maybe he wants cash that doesn't touch any banking channel. As Dan said get receipts, clear written agreement on any work done that is part of the sale, that the car when sold has no major faults/noises etc. Just cover yourself as much as possible which you should do for any purchase really.

In 4 months my car reaches 23 years old 10 years, just a young pup!

Most coaches go through an accredited training programme learning about basic psychology techniques plus coaching techniques like NLP, Transactional Analysis and the like. It well worth ensuring any coach is qualified and or has equivalent professional experience in coaching.

Thanks guys

Ha! I'm married with a child

I have none of this. My work colleagues often say how good it is I am so passionate about a hobby and some say they wish they were so passionate about what they do in their spare time.

Just sticking a poll out there guys, Life Coaching. This is something where a trained coach/facilitator spends usually an hour per session speaking with people to help them improve their confidence, set and achieve goals, tackle difficult problems etc. could be about careers, social challenges, financials, anything really that someone feels they need help tackling. Question is, what would you pay per session for that?

Saw a blue one on the M25 today, lowered, but looked fairly tasteful, said to the wife "sooo what do you think of those, same as a 350z four seats" she replied with various comments mostly along the lines that it looks like some cheap mercedes with strange eyes at the front. Looks like I am keeping the Celica for a while yet!
