  1. ahh yes i saw that! i think i got a picture of you coming through the car park! will upload them in a bit/tomorrow!
  2. Saw a few 350z there! anyone on here?
  3. Seat Leon FR - fantastic cars and when I used to sell them we had a lot of businesses buying them for employees. interior is very good and drive well.
  4. I had a - bugeye wrx wagon - bugeye wrx saloon - hawkeye wrx saloon - Evo 8 GSR 260 Scoobys were too slow and interior was very poor Evo 8 didn't live up to the hype and I felt bored.
  5. I asked him about this, said no paperwork at all and he wanted near 14k!! this was about 4 months ago. phone them up, ask for the previous owners details (will be on log book) and try get in contact that way.
  6. Wrx youll beat all day. have more trouble with a sti. scoobys are more about getting up to 70 quickly, not 70+ - their top end is pretty low. will be a lot harder in corners, but most of them are driven by people that cant drive. be aware though, for very little money they can get a big power jump. and then any chance you did have is gone.
  7. Yeah? how so? surely it will just reappear?
  8. so nissan watford want £100 to turn the light off... anyone know anyone else near herts area?
  9. looks a bit 'stuck on' to me. would look good smoothed into the boot.
  10. youll have to get rails for the seats to mount to. i think neilp has bucket seats, and i think i asked him a few years ago. i think he has buddy club side mounts. after i looked into it, it was a lot more money than i was willing to spend, as the standard seats are pretty good anyways.
  11. bennett gt4 had probably the nicest one ive ever seen. i was supposed to buy it, but lack of funds at the time stopped me. wish i had.
  12. i sold my scooby wrx and bought a 350z when i had a baby!! never a reason to sell it!

    Cat C

    i owned a cat D before. sold it quite quickly. just didnt feel right. im sure your m3 will sell easily and you can get yourself in a 350z quickly.
  14. ill call nissan and try take it down today and see if they can reset it. fingers crossed its just that.
  15. yeah, ive been a bit sceptical about giving it the beans out of bends. and i think ill leave that until its turned on!! ive got a OBDII reader lying around somewhere, but i think its just a cheap one so like you said doubt it will read. hm..
  16. Hi guys, so when i start the car and then start to pull away the ABS engages for a few seconds, then ABS and TSC lights both come on. if you then turn the car off and on, the lights will be off, but when again you go to pull off, it will do the same thing. this happens every time without fail. i can then drive normally. but its very un nerving not having ABS / TSC. its going into Japex on thursday so something else so will get them to look then. just didnt know if anyone had any quick solution to what it might be?
  17. call Ross/Stu at japex. ive used them since ive had my zeds (4/5 years now!) taken evos/scoobys/bmws etc there. and every single time they are 100% they are flat out with work though. so sometimes can be up to 7 days before they can fit you in. but they will show you any parts they take off and what is wrong with them for peace of mind. 01923 260707 - Ask for Ross / Stuart
  18. im on my 4th DE. for me, i cant see enough of a jump to warrant the extra money on the HR once the 370z comes to around 8/9k ill probably get one. but i dont think atm the 370z is double the price as its not double the car. 370z are in e92 m3 territory, and i know i would rather have one of those.
  19. ive smoked on and off for year. to a point where i could buy a 20 deck and smoke it in a day, then buy another the next day, it could then last me 2 weeks. then i wont smoke for 2 months, then want just half a fag etc. i think if i had one of these it would stop my random monthly cravings. i could just leave it in a draw for when i need it. where would be the best place to start with something real basic? i used to smoke mentol so would probably get a menthol flavour if posssible?
  20. ive bought and sold cars on and off for the last 3 years, and never put a single advert on Pistonheads. 90% of my purchases/sales are through ebay the other 8% is autotrader and 2% gumtree. always go ebay first, if not luck after a week ill drop the price a little or stick it on autotrader. ebay is full of timewasters, but you learn very quickly who is genuine or not, never accept a deal on ebay as it just wastes time if they dont show up - or get a deposit before accepting. best thing to do is to find your exact car (make/model/miles (to the nearest 5k)/condition/colour/wheels/extras) and price yours £100 lower. - your car is then the cheapest on the market of that spec. and in theory should sell quickly if people know what theyre looking at. - plus, when someone asks for money off, tell them thats youve done your research and if they can find the same car cheaper, youll beat it. - and they wont. - just put in a full tank of fuel to sweeten them up. take decent pictures. The amount of cars i buy purely based on how awful the pictures are is insane. i specifically target cars with bad photos as i know the car will sell for up to £500 less that what it should. the majority of people only buy cars for cash with a value of £5k or less. above that and you're into finance for most people. So plan to sell your car, and be prepared to sit on it a while for the right price. - if you want a quick cash sale, be prepared to drop £500-1000. But if its advertised for more than 10 days. go and take some different pictures. people who are looking for a 350z/370z may have scanned past it a few times. being new pictures may appear to be a new car and grab their attention. These are tips ive used to sell cars before and 9 times out of 10 it works - yes you lose on some cars, but thats life.
  21. I'm Watford too! And Ross/stu at japex are great. In fact, I'm about to go drop my car there now!!
  22. I started when I was about 10. Started on a Honda 100, then to a Kawasaki kx 85 Then up to a 125, then I got more interested in girls and cars and all gave up.
