What really winds me up is the holier than thou cnuts who cycle around with helmet cams so they can film all the terrible car drivers. I think they need to adjust their attitude and drive within the rules of the road the same as most of us do. They'll find they have no longer a need for these cameras. So many times I've been abused by cyclists when I've done nothing wrong at all. If anyone smashed their hand down on my car I'd probably lose my rag. I can see myself cutting them up and jumping out of the car to be honest. Wouldn't be ideal as I need SC clearance for my job so a criminal record wouldn't be a good idea

Ouch... I must say it pains me to see a Zed in such a state. Insurance shouldn't write it off it's a 1500 quid job or 2k to the insurance company nodoubt. Car still has a trade value of 5k or so I'd imagine. Never a write off. If you're going to be paying your mate to help you out with it then surely its worth just paying the excess and getting it back perfect and brand new looking

Get rid of those awful awful tyres immediately. Before the ditch finders do as their name suggests. Or worse. Either get some Bridgestone RE050s to match the front, or ideally replace the whole set. I'd suggest Falken FK 452.

Yeah, but it will be more rusty looking after another winter Oi. Sunset > White anyway

I'd suggest the Falken FK 452s as an alternative to the sessantas. Similar performance. Possibly slightly longer in the tooth though wear wise. Both are good tyres. I've never rated Eagle Assymetrics at all personally, so really don't see why you'd pay extra for them..

camskill event tyres mytyres pneus-online oponeo tyremen ...knock yourself out I tend to check most of them every time. for winters I went with tyremen as they had my preferred tyre in stock £20 cheaper than pneus. make sure you buy decent winters. I don't understand why people would pay top money for performance summer tyres but then want to get the cheapest possible winters

As this has been revived: What are the differences in terms of cost, bhp gains and noise output between: Stock Y pipe, Berks HFCs Decat, XYZ Y pipe with Race cat I imagine going Motordyne Plenum / Berks HFCs / UpRev is a good alternative option for a bit cheaper again fitted?

Mine will likely be for sale in April/May

It sounds like you only get 5 laps yourself. And not even a whole lap. North weald is an airfield they usually put about 4 corners on. Not sure it's worth it It's cheap for a reason. But I'd be glad to be proven wrong.

Heathrow != Slough Ahh well. Maybe when the evenings are longer again we'll sort something

I know a great place in Hayes for a shoot: If interested we could do a little mini shoot with the two cars. I've got my own dslr as well. Can you make weekday lunches? I live in Harrow but work here. Could pop out for a mid afternoon photo sesh. Drop me a pm.

your one looks like it does the job nicely! Cheers mate. Really not bad for the £40 I paid for it The idea of paying 120-150 for the same thing but that you also need to drill into your car to fit seems foolhardy by comparison, in my opinion..

.......Each to their own!

I'll be at the ring in April or early may. Once I've got a date set I'll let you chaps know.

1x1. Gloss finish. By the meter. Ready to cut/apply. I don't mind if it needs heat or not. Want to have a go at the interior trim and a couple of other bits if I get any good at it Cheers folks

^ good skills above on the pic whoring. so I will be fitting my alpine DVA-D106R over the next couple of months will go for a pocket din set up like the first pic above..

Cardboard + pencil + MDF + hacksaw + leather or vinyl to cover it = tonneau

Assuming I still have the little Zed I'll be there..

We can't see that link without being registered but the procedure is on this forum also anyway.. Interesting to know. Got your graph? Put it up?

I get 16 Either your Zed is broken or you drive like a muppet My average when I last looked was at 11.4mpg average over about 5 tanks That is superb going!

I get 16 Either your Zed is broken or you drive like a muppet Average speed is 16mph London commute 15miles stanmore to Heathrow in rush hour every day. Fun fun fun. I managed 50s in the M1 contraflow up towards milton keynes. The zed is fine. London commuting just sucks ass.

I get 16

mine are going on tomorrow night... JDMs with nokian WR A3's

Horrendous, horrendous, horrendous...

I'm seriously tempted
