  1. I know it's low mileage but what do people think about it only having 4 services in 10 years ?
  2. +1 It is the things you do to improve it that costs. My experience is - Year 1 New exhaust (~£400) + free service, spark plugs and fan unit (warranty) from Nissan (P3 service + plugs normally ~£350 from Indy) Year 2 Service + bits and bobs (~£500) Year 3 The year I planned to sell it ! But I couldn't find a good enough alternative so decided to keep it for another couple of years.... New convertible roof (~£700) New tyres (~£700) New leather finish on steering wheel (~£100) Refurbished wheels (~£160) Paint correction (~£200) A service later in the year Wow, I better make sure the wife doesn't see this ! Though the depreciation is low now that it's 8 years old,
  3. Does the scorpion drone at motorway speeds ?

    MPSS

    I bought 4 x MPSS from Tyreleader and had no issues, delivery is 3-4 days with full tracking
  6. My car was in exactly the same state today, had mine refurbished and painted by a mate in the business.
  7. Nearly forgot, if you fancy a day on the beach and/or jet skiing you could head over to the clear water area. Also, a restaurant a little drive out but very good is Manny's chop house, it gets very busy so worth booking a table. They have a website.
  8. Just got back from Orlando last weekend. I can't make recommendations about bars and nightlife as it was a family holiday. As for other things to see as already mentioned the Kennedy space centre is a must in my opinion especially that they now have the Atlantis space shuttle on display. Also we really enjoyed having lunch with an astronaut though this extra. You could check when a rocket is due to take off and try and visit at the same time though weather can delay when it takes off. We went to discovery cove where you can swim with a dolphin, it isn't cheap and may not suit a group of lads.
  9. +1 what Pete said. We went there for a few days and found it a safe and fascinating place, for all the right reasons ! We mainly took public transport, especially the public river boat service. We found a few days there is enough to see most of the major sites. Don't have a Thai massage unless you like pain.
  10. Palmer sports is great but costs more than standard experiences
  11. Only 1 so far, an 8 year old roadster that I've owned for 2 1/2 years. I thought I'd be changing it after 3 years but have decided to keep it another couple of years. Since making the decision I have bought a new soft top and MPSS all round....I'm falling in love with it all over again... Should I mention the 4 new MPSS ?
  12. Welcome, I know Wycombe well after spending most of my life in the area, I now live just a bit further down the M40
  13. Mine came from Germany with the fronts and rears in different packages. Thankfully they arrived at the same time. Hopefully your remaining 2 will arrive soon, have they left the depot ?
  14. It's worth checking Tyreleader too, saved me a fortune for 4 x MPSS
  15. Tyreleader are coming out cheaper at the moment 225/45/18 95Y Michelin Super Sport - £144 each inc postage 245/45/18 100Y Michelin Super Sport - £150 each inc postage
  16. All of the 4 MPSS tryres ordered from Tyreleader are on thanks to GC Mobile Tyre Fitting. I can highly recommend Gary Cummins, he went out of his way to pick up my tyres from the garage that was originally going to fit them and didn't charge any extra If anybody is interested he covers the Berks, Bucks and Oxon counties and can be reached on 07584 053307. Top service from Tyreleader too, had full tracking from their depot to delivery and cost £150 for rear tyres and £144 for front tyres.
  17. Mine arrived Thursday afternoon.
  18. 320-380 for me. I'm liking the new offer from Tesco's, 2p off a litre for every £50 you spend. Tesco's is the only supermarket close to us so I will be filling up once a month with 20p off a litre, the max you can accumulate
  19. I have just placed an order with Tyreleader for 4 MPSS, hopefully I will receive them ok, I will keep you up to date. One warning - I called the fitter mentioned on their website to check the fitting price, it was slightly out, but only by 50p per tyre. It is worth mentioning that the fitter didn't know anything about Tyreleader and had received several sets of tyres over the past weeks with no information on who they were for.... So if you do order and get them delivered to one of their named fitters it is worth giving them a call and providing them with contact information, etc.
  20. I have been to Texas on business but never on holiday. To be honest I am not sure how much there will be to see. I used to live in Atlanta so have been to many of the places you mention in the Florida tour. I think you will find more places of interest there. My favourite though is the West Coast - Seattle down to San Diego and everywhere in-between.
