well, insurance is quite steep for me, but im willing to pay it, my cheapest quote so far is 1400 quid, should clarify I'm 22 years old

the tax... meh, not bothered about that.

 

was just curious on the fuel, as I've had no car even similar to a 370z (engine size I mean)

 

currently have a 2011 Fiesta, bought it brand new with 26 miles on the clock, I now have 23.5k miles, so I do drive quite alot.

That's not a lot

I did 1400 in mine last week and have done about 14,000 since I got her in Nov. I have a 350, admittedly, but I've averaged 29mpg over that time

Just sent this link to one of my work colleagues who became suddenly very interested in the Zed's after a quick ride in mine on Friday night.

If he's keen, I'll put you two in touch.

GLWTS

I can't make it that weekend unfortunately

Thank you for the update. No huge rush, certainly not worth upsetting the mrs over

Once its finished, drop me a PM and we'll sort out the payment

I'll be there on the Friday

That is good. Large excess?

Bit harsh on Bob there...

Feel free. Can't promise the standard of lasagne though!

I got a DB9*, breakfast at Frankie and Bennys, cinema trip and they've been making dinner for me while I play Forza 4 and watch Back to the Future.

This dibs thing makes me laugh. The seller can sell to whoever he likes.

Sure, etiquette dictates but still..

If it was the UK, I'd say Leeds

Very nice artwork mate

I can go for weeks without sticking the Xbox on and never play online.

Will be interesting to see where they go with this pre owned games issue.

Bring back conkers and curby I say.

They were pretty much all motorway miles on a work trip. It was 1am by the time I got to Ascot and most if the petrol stations were shut so spent ages driving around on empty. I was amazed I got to fill up without running out and was proper panicking.

I'd not recommend it!

My car is totally stock and got 427 miles from the tank the other week, and that wasn't driving with MPG in mind, just normally

Maybe £100 to someone

 

You could always keep it for when you part with the car...

I live in a 4th floor flat with no garage.. I'd need to part with it at the time of swap over.

I'll drop Chris a PM a bit later

Any idea what my OEM (60k) would be worth to offset some of this cost?

And would The Zed Shed want it?

Just to add to this, I've taken a last minute trip into Manchester to watch Joe Satriani.

Just waiting for him to take the stage, really looking forward to this. His song Surfing with the Alien is, of course, where I get my forum name from

You ask them?

"Please note the car is being advertised elsewhere so may be removed from e-bay's listing at any time"

Means that even with no reserve, he'll pull the advert if he doesn't get the right price anyway

I kept look at the silver ones until I saw these:

According to Google Maps you are roughly 287 miles away from me. Now, I like a good sausage as much as the next man, but that's probably a bit much!

However, I'm in Bridgewater for work on Tuesday, how far is that from you guys?

I'm really really tempted with these, really.

Been looking at my cash flow this month and just not sure I can stretch to it

Is that a Nismo front splitter you have there?
