  1. http://www.350z-uk.c...tal-grey-coupe/ Cheers for the link stuarty, but thats actually more money than I sold my own Z for 3 months ago. Looking budget end to allow for improvements. Plus as much as I'd like to save a fortune with the tax man, I need to be sensible, a wrap will cost a fair bit for what I'm thinking....
  2. I think my name on here might give it away? Actually could just forget the wrap and cover it in cement, sand and emulsion, will then look like most builders transit vans!! Basically this idea is just an excuse to get another Z and for the whole thing to be written off against my tax...... Could look seriously impressive though if carried out tastefully??
  3. He is a builder, the estimate will be £2k and the final bill £6k Don't know about budget, this is just the planning stage......... But if I'm buying the final bill goes down not up Dave!! Company colours are Grey, Silver and Green, I'm sure a decent wrap design can be constructed along those lines
  4. Thats gone Paddy, S5 for me now. Keep up!!!
  5. S5 is the way to go (unless an RS is on budget)
  6. Might be in the market for a really cheap 350 (if they exist?). Dont care about age or finish or mileage as I'm not thinking about it as an everyday car. What I'm imagining is a full wrap with advertising logo and imagery which I could then drive in local fetes, carnivals, and the like. Oh and obviously to the supermarket and at every point possible to get the best advertising Subtly done and with the emphasis on good tasteful looks I think it could act as a good marketing tool, as well as allowing me the ability to get back in a Zed at the expense of my company of course So a Japanese import or insurance job isnt out of the question.... Also means I can tinker around with all the bits I didn't bother about with 'Miss Marmite', such as the engine, exhaust etc. Oh I would still want a gt type spec, The idea is still in my head, but if I can swing it with the company accountant who knows????? If it happens, pics will follow
  7. Ages since I last bought a house....... last time I paid £375 But you just have to build the fees into your costs i guess? Just seems a decent time to get into developement, prices are pretty low at the moment.
  8. I work too, just Director title gets all my insurances reduced, :lol: And he has to graft, he's the bosses son, no special treatment........
  9. Dont know about him not being a fan of jap cars as I remember warching him in a skyline and loving it this was years ago . Don't even think it was even a TG episode and his hair was even worse than it is now.Also remember how he loved the GTR compared to the Jag as he said buy the one made for the job and not the one given a facelift or something like that. he also loved the honda S2000..another one of my old cars :grin: Don't think he ever had an opinion on my Allegro 1100 TC I think TC stands for 'total crap'?
  10. Jezza's comments are meant to wind you up, it's a magazine in tv format. Not a proper magazine, but NUTS magazine! Lets be honest here, love him or hate him Jezza is brutally brutal in what he says, and it's just his opinion so doesn't really matter. What matters is what we like. Personally I like Captain Slow, .
  11. Straight forward purchase, no upper or lower chain, no mortgage, cash buy. £500 should be expected then?
  12. Any one on here a conveyancer, or know roughly what I should expect to pay in conveyancing costs to purchase a house? Nothing to sell, just a purchase. Thanks in advance, Paul
  13. £ 998 wanted for him to insure a 350z at 22 years old with 4 years ncd, and £800 total excess, £778 to insure the 335i with £375 total excess. Of course when you get to my age its totally different again! I pay £245 to insure the S5 protected with £150 excess, if it were me insuring the 335i it would be £287????????? How weird is that? The 335i has 306 bhp and the S5 has 350bhp! I guess a Quattro is less safe than a rear wheel drive . One thing I will say is the Audi isnt as exciting on bends but its damned fast in a straight line (unfortunately I live in the country, loads of bends) :lol: BTW, my 350Z cost £230 a year to insure.
