  1. they are lovely cars...but any ownership experience?
  2. while i was away in the sandy shithole, i was considering other cars as ' upgrades' , very few cars seemed to improve over the 350z, my only choices were the m3 V8 and the Cayman 3.2 .... any experiences?
  3. wow, the greasy ****, i did wonder why it was so cheap! thanks for the info ! i owe you a pint!
  4. well so far im looking at a pearl white M3 with 29k miles, 2007, for 21k squids, sounds too cheap to me, what do you guys think,,,its mainly for performance im changing for ...does anyone have any experience of this model? Thats not a white one with red leather is it? yes thats the one, it seems very cheap for 28k miles
  5. most seem to come cheaper at 2007 yr model...is this for a reason? is the performance that much of an upgrade over a good 350Z?

    BMW M3

    Im about to commit to a change of car, i am looking at a BMW M3 V8......i feel guilty at leaving the zed behind...am i selling out? i do love my zed, but that m3 V8 does look very nice
  8. maybe you should get a quiet room with your car
  9. yes thanks, going back out on a few months, managed to save a lot of money out there, but there's still plenty to spend your money on, courtesy of American supermarkets!! they don't like to leave home behind... Now, question is....do i save money or spend it on the Zed?
  10. i forgot how heavy the steering was though, i thought i had a flat tyre, but then i saw the many admiring side-looks then remembered i was in something a little more special
  11. After 4 months in the middle east where my speed limit was 40Kph.... my 350z now scares the crap out of me, but what a rush!
  12. No, you'll be fine, I've done it on mine ok i'll give it a go ...thanks
  13. oh yeah and when i leave the lights on and open the door...there's no alert noise...i managed to leave the lights on for a couple of hours by accident...so there's obviously some problems here
  14. well normally the TC comes in like an overbearing mother, but today i managed a slide out on the junction, a first for me with the TC on.... will an ECU re-set remove the UpRev map?
  15. thanks for the welcome back messages The car was jump started ok, everything seemed fine, then i noticed wheel spin in the wet and no traction control kicking in, you can select it off or on, but it doesnt seem to actually do anything. Is this a feature of the car losing battery power? do i need the ECU reading or resetting? CHeers all
  16. well they ran it around while i was away regularly....or so they say......hence the reason i gave it to them....i hope it is just a matter of under using the battery as i cant imagine a jap car falling foul of rain!
  17. HI again everyone, Im back from the middle east, i phoned my friends up who were looking after my zed, only to find out they couldnt start it today, they told me various lights appeared on the dash and it wouldnt turn over, they suggest its the mad wet weather....my car hasnt suffered before....any suggestions? im going to see it tomorrow......gutted i have no car ive been missing so much in Afghanistan
  18. mine started hissing when i changed my HU, very quiet though, i presume a bad earth
  19. Im away in the middle east at the moment, i'll get it dyno'd when im back, but having the plenum chamber fitted first, i'll keep you posted
  20. I contacted the road safety officer, with my concerns about the hidden fixed camera, he's gone out to investigate, maybe contacting yours might help? it will certainly help clarify matters from the rozzers point of view.
  21. well from what im told, again probably bollocks, but if a fixed speed camera isnt visible, they arent legal...but this is why i contacted the coppers, im flying out to sandy places tomorrow and don't want a certain letter i have to reply to in a certain time! ... never drive on the A17 !
  22. i recently went past a fixed camera that was hidden by overgrown trees, i have contacted the police, they have yet to give me the legal standing on this
  23. I loved FF initially, but it grew too much of en ego and sold out too much, became as slow as IE. Chrome like said above, can link into my Android apps on my phone and tablet Chrome for the win....Google, our new masters...
