  1. Getting better each week, looking forward to next one. I believe Eddy Jordan is appearing again.
  2. Must say 2nd episode better than 1st. Lets hope next week continues to improve. Really liked the challenge of the 3 Crossovers, it worked because of Eddie Jordan.
  3. Hello and Welcome. My low mileage immaculate 2006 roadster will soon be up for sale.
  4. Very disappointing. A second grade attempt. Was looking forward to a fresh approach but it was the same format. Why with an extremely high budget and world wide interest cant they come up with a new presentation to fit the new crew. The original programme was getting lost and losing its excitement but it seems they are happy to continue with losing viewers. Give it another episode before making my mind up to stop watching.
  5. Well would you believe it. My paint has arrived. After 11 days. There was no reply to my 4 emails. There is no other contact details on their website. I was so concerned I cancelled my credit card and applied for a claim I re-ordered from Paints4U and received delivery within 48 hrs. Brilliant. I now have 2 repair kits and out of pocket by £28. Paint is WV2. Although I now know the company exists, I believe in Ashton - under - Lyne, I do not recommend them. Anger and frustration come to mind.
  6. Hi Guys, if you are looking for paint supplies, then stay away from above. Even though they take payment through Pay Pal it is all bogus. Trying to get money back via credit card at the moment but it is a pain. Should have gone to specsavers !
  7. I got a 370 for the day while my 350 was being serviced. Plus half a tank of petrol . And they cleaned up my alloys way beyond what I could have done. My service is due again early next year and I will be expecting the same. They phone me before my service is due , I ask what they can provide and we do a deal. Simples!

    Trip to US

    Super Stu I was probably a bit too harsh with my comment on the Mustang. It's a good looking car with the roof down. Give it a good bit of welly and it shifts. Couple of pics of the one we rented. Fits well on the driveway. Also a couple different motors.

    Trip to US

    Just come back from holiday in states. To my surprise I was amazed how common the 350Z is. More coupes than roadsters but still enough to loose count on the first day. Very few with any mods that I could see. My hire car was a Mustang V6 convertible. What a load of rubbish. Saw a good few American V8 muscle cars, many giving it the full boot as they passed when we had the roof down, beautiful sound. Have attached a couple of photos, cause I know you like photos, of one of my favourites. A 1951 Ford Mercury. If you look closely you can see spark plugs near the tail pipes, flames at the touch of a button. Hell of a good idea for those unwanted tailgaters. Got a video as well but have struggled getting the photos attached not sure if can do same with video.

    Cheap Bridgestones

    When buying through mytyres they are delivered direct to your local national tyres station. In my case within 2 days. Given an appointment time, fitted and balanced while I waited, about 40 minutes. Life time guarantee. Well chuffed. cheapest deal I could find. What a difference in road grip and noise level.

    Cheap Bridgestones

    Good price for MPSS. If I was wanting 4 I would have no hesitation. But because my fronts, Bridgestones, have plenty of life in them, at least 12 months for me. I did not want to mix brands. My concern was that is Tyre Shopper a reputable supplier. I have now placed order, fitting tomorrow, hope it goes well.
  12. Need rear tyres. Best price I can find is Bridgestones REO50A 245/45/WR18 at £169.40 fully fitted from Tyre Shopper. A lot cheaper than from Black Circle. Has any of you guys used this online company before? and do you recommend. Not heard any of you mention them in previous threads and wondered why. Cheers.
  13. Just about to renew with ESURE. £241 fully comp. I am old, no mods, lots of ncb. £350 excess. So I know I am different. Everyones situation is different but thought it was worth a mention as not seen ESURE been mentioned on here before. Interested to know if anyone else is with them?
  14. You guys in the south are getting it bad, here in Newcastle a mixture of light snow and sunshine. But we are bracing ourselves because your weather is coming our way in a few hours. Just in time for rush hour. And by the way, it's bloody cold. And that's saying something in Newcastle.
  15. Had my roadster for 4 weeks. It has been 4 weekends of sunshine, hood down, winding country roads, beautiful scenery, beautiful exhaust sound and a never ending grin. I am loving it.
