Although I'd imagine this is very annoying from a buyers point of view, you also have to look at it from the sellers side. Although there decent people out there, there are a lot of timewasters about which gets infuriating. If selling a car etc, I'd always keep welcoming new interest until I had the cash firmly in my hand.

Hmm... I agree with this but again I don't.

If it's a case of selling the car, everything is agreed and all the seller needs to do it get the mot done for example then it's sold, it should be an exclusive sale. Not still advertising it.

So in this situation the engine just needed to be removed and prepped for delivery. As all money had been agreed. So this should have been an exclusive sale.

Personally I would have send a deposit to show commitment. Had you offered and the seller not wanted to take one then that's a different story.

I would often say no to deposits and it was on a 'first to put cash in my hand' kind of thing. - this is because previously I've had deposits and people then can't collect for a week or 2.

You can buy a running supercharged zed for less than that.

I was once lucky enough for chris to pick me up in this. Jesus did it fly, nearly quite literally down a country lane over a hump!

Good memories.

Budget?

 

Tbh I wouldn't even consider an RS4. Sure, a nice car, but hardly a thrill a minute. The C63 has the most charismatic V8 engine of the last 15 years in it, but an E90/2 M3 has it licked in dynamics and it's available in a manual. New Mustang would also be an excellent car, but I'm not sure I could choose it over a C63.

Amen to that.

C63 for an everyday car

M3 if you track it

Mustang if you want to feel American.

Have you got a link to the car?

Sorry to hear!

Pictures of damage?

I need one of these too!

Ahah I have another motor, It was just in case of emergency and I had no other transport etc

Hmm..

I think I need to message wasso and his expertise!

Hi guys,

Question is are the exterior door handles plastic or metal?

And are the interior plastic or metal?

Also, are the circles around the gauges and dials plastic or metal?

I'm thinking about getting them polished just to be different.

I would go check, but my misses has taken the car to work!

Yeah, I see it as someone being asked to fit something like a decat.

And yeah, I would have modified it to fit a turn key.

She will be in a forward facing seat soon. So it will be more hassle than it's worth.

Cheers for the input guys thouhg

There's is an emercancy opening under the rear strut brace I think. Just incase you're proper stuck

Tbh, after reading more info, you can put a forward facing seat in the front with a working airbag,

Think of all the chefs working in the kitchens and pubs!

Yesterday we recorded a high of 42 on the Cook line.

And that was through a busy lunch service between 12:30-2pm!

Who is the resident electrician of the forums?

I want a switch put in to the passenger airbag to be able to turn it off. I have a young child and if I ever needed to somewhere in an emergency I could get where I need to go.

I'm from Hertfordshire if that helps!

Is not about who did it first, it's about who does it right.

Hi,

ATM I've got brembo discs/pads all round.

When I was at the ring last month I got a warped discs. (I think this was after a car pulled out on me along the autobahn and had to do a very quick stop from about 140)

The rears are fine, it's the fronts.

I've just bought ds2500 fronts and I'm just deciding what discs to buy, I'm more than likely going to go Dba as the brembo didn't hold up. Which I though was odd.

Can I upgrade fronts and leave rears as they are? Or will it make the car brake weirdly?

So fronts would be Dba/ds2500 and rear brembo/brembo

Car will be used for occasional track day.

Ild like to put ds2500 and Dba rear, but ild like to spend funds on other bits if they don't NEED it.

Cheers

I can feel a Nurburgring 2016 thread appearing soon.

1. Luke0549 - black 350z DE

Ahah!

Yup.

Got 2x 30mm

No nuts though. Lost them!

I'm looking for tyres for my next ting trip. You say no to r888??? Why? I thought they were the best?

Jesus! Went for a nice off road ride did we?

It's the greatest place in the world for the buzz, the excitement and the nerves.

Glad you are enjoying it!

My favourite corner last year was miss-hit-miss, because when you get it 100%, you are absolutely flying!!

Is it possible to fit 370z dials on a 350z?

Hi people.

It's something I've looked at doing as realistically I need some form of career. I trained as a police officer a few years ago and have always been interested in public services.

I've fallen into the pub trade, and somehow blagged being a manager, but it's poor money and serving drunks and mopping floors at 2am is not something I love.

Any fire fighters here?

Just seeing where you work. Would you recommend it? What's the deal with the shift patterns Etc etc.

Cheers

Aren't the 17s really heavy?

I've got some oz racing wheels 17. Put them on for a week. Far too small

Still in garage if you want?

Need spacers due to offset though.

Oh, and they're bright orange!!
