  1. My daughter is one in two weeks time. I've had the zed for nearly two years now & its is my weekend car. I thought about selling up before the baby arrived but I have such a good zed that I didn't want to let her go. My other car is an SUV which does all the family stuff and is the wife daily. Trouble is I've found myself using the zed less & less as you want to spend as much time with your new family especially if you work away from home like me. I'm glad I kept the zed as as good as our SUV is (I the real world it'll beat the zed at most things) it doesn't make me take a second look at her when I walk away, it doesn't make me grin or feel good when I'm driving it. In truth though its only a matter of time before I'm going to have to accept defeat & sell the zed as if I'm really honest she's not getting used nearly enough at doing what she was made to do.

    Missed Service

    If you say it had a major in 2012 then I assume it was a P3 so on that basis a P1 would be next which is basically an oil change. With 9000 miles since last device I'd get a P1 done by a good indie.
  3. Subtle & clean. Very tidy Sarah
  4. Was at the races for a metes stag, great day out. Ended up £15 down.
  5. Invest in better nuts. Tarmac does Muteki's, look them up
  6. 12K less discount for supplier shout outs so probably considerably less
  7. I actually quite like those wheels though

    Next car

    S4 with remap & miltek are supposed to be the bee knees if you go for sport diff etc
  9. Was & still is my favourite zed on the forum. Looks fantastic but I'm another that would consider removing the eye lids. Think a duckbill style rear spoiler would Finnish that off perfectly
  10. best colour I'm up in Aberdeen but my wife's parents are down in Holytown so you never know...
  11. 275/35/19 is what I have on my LMGT4's too. MPSS tyres are as good as everyone says they are, well worth the extra cash IMO
  12. And the small child in me has returned once again
  13. If someone was up my arse like that on a track day I think I'd be having some serious words with them in the pit lane. No need!
  14. Just bought maxi suds 2 & have to say it's far superior to the Megs gold class i was using prior to purchase of the chemical guys
  15. As long as claying is not done on hot panels on a hot day then following the advice above should cause not harm. Even if a little scratching appears it'll be gone by the time you polish it. I bought the DAS-6 pro as its a good inbetween DA http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polishing-machines/das-6-pro-dual-action-polisher/das-6-pro-dual-action-polisher/prod_673.html

    New car time!

    Who cares about people who use that line about poor man's 911. Cayman gets great reviews, look good and are pretty reliable overall. That would make a 370Z a poor man's GTR etc etc
  17. As Neilp says. Mine has similar ever since the Berks HFC & short ram intake were fitted. Not so much judder but say if your in fifth doing 60 & you plant the foot or coming out of bend in say third & accelerate then you get some kick back after a slight hesitation. It doesn't make the car undriveable but its definitely noticeable. Does your car feel slightly less smooth/more lumpy at idle? After speaking to Mark at Abbey he confirmed my symptoms to be common, especially on HR models & said a remap would sort it out. I'm just waiting to buy an exhaust & hopefully for Abbey to confirm a Scottish tuner for the Up rev to get it done.
