  1. Feel for you bro. So uncrashable skyline GTR???? Almost the same as you - unfortunately (or fortunately), the R33 GTR was mine. Small roundabout, slightly damp, but a roundabout I have been around a 100 times. Chatting to my mate, not bombing it. Music on. Just get off roundabout, boost creeps up and BANG - I'm spinning around. Popped up kerb, hit signpost and sigh.....Mate got out an was sick. I just felt it. All in, 5 secs and 30-40 mph. My fault??? Probably but just goes to show, don't have to be being an arse to crash. I have honestly went around same roundabout 20mph faster on other occasions without a twitch. Conclusion - bus depot is on the first exit of said roundabout. Diesel?? Probably. No excuses...but does make me more cautious on road conditions. Also trashed a 916 due to over confidence in the rain on a track day.....just thought I'd mention that one. And yes.....TOTALLY my fault.
  2. Maybe team orders should come into play.....Lorenzo asking Rossi to take a mad "bowling ball" lunge at next race!!! Only way I can see Marquez losing title. But stranger things have happened.
  3. Think Abbey (Mark) had some family related issues, hence was waiting on him to reply. Hopefully his father is on the mend...so still waiting on him.
  4. Nearly bought a Focus ST on gumtree - exact same scam!!! Reported it to gumtree and they took advert down. Surprisingly (NOT) it re-appeared - same car, same pics but total different location in UK. Go figure. B)
  5. I'm still trying to figure this one out?? The standard uk 6 disc bose has three connections at back. However some (including US) models have four connections - thus allowing to fit as you mentioned from ebay. BUT a few UK cars have four connections!!! Now not sure if this is dependent on year / or if sat nav required forth connection. Best bet would be to take out your CD unit - and if you have a forth (empty) slot - then it'll fit. Sorry cant be more helpful.
  6. newer ones can do both.....much to regret of bikers.
  7. worrying that the guy doesn't know size off wheels on the car he is selling??
  8. 2003 gt with 71k miles. 8k? For resale for me, I would hope so!!! (mines is 2005 with 34k), but every the optimistic...i doubt it...a bit steep. Nice car though.
  9. Whats your own version going to be like? Flexi ? What style? Cheers
  10. Rays will be 400 (min), spoiler fitted and painted 140 (min) and then interior 350 (min). Thats almost 900 quid. Better just spending a bit more and getting a UK GT to begin with? IMO. Does look clean though for a 2003.
  11. 3/4 front number plate is cheap....and makes the front look better. and remove number plate housing first....its free!!
  12. 400 quid? I don't reckon thats expensive for a cambelt fitted? Tensioner needs done at same time hence why its a bit more than normal. Not sure if water pump is due at same time but probably budget in that too. So if you can wangle seller doing work...then think its a fair swap.
  13. FWIW - I think that seems like a fair swap. Cambelts aren't expensive on french beasties - providing you get an independent to do it. If the seller does the belts and bungs you a couple hundred quid.....you'll be doing well. Just remind the misses that although four seats....getting in the back of the megane isn't easy.
  14. Here goes. A few from the last 10 years. Had a couple of scoobies as well but cant find pics. An S4 (good car - a bit boring though) http:// A GTR (how its meant to look). http:// A GTR after diesel and signpost incident??? (note - GTRs are not uncrashable) A Golf GTI (the wife wanted one - the first and last new car I will buy) http:// A RS4 (brilliant car) http:// A lexus ISF (fun in the wet!!!!) http:// And an EVO (cause I always fancied one).
  15. Not nice...but might send a message. Obviously "DAD" had some wonga...to afford a F-type. But wonga won't bring his son back. Sad but the dead body could have been a child....
  16. Azure, GT ??? Not biased 350Ad? :teeth: To OP. Colour is a personal thing....black/silver and orange for me where a no. I wanted a white roadster!!!! no chance..so blue it was. GT spec is worth it. GT cars dont actually sell for much more...but you do get a little more kit (still basic though).
  17. dbass....interested to see how you get on. Some pics and that.

    Aerokit?

    I looked long and hard to try and find actual pics of front lip - but couldn't find any. Anyone fitted one??
  20. GIZMO COOKIE MONSTER is his offical name!!!Other cat is OLLY POLLY PAWS!!! Yep, my wife is also a mad cat woman. :wacko: Obviously I will not be shouting out the door for them....neighbours will think i'm nuts.
  21. "you even managed to train him"...hah, thats what you think. He's managed to train you to ask for a paw and feed him. Cats are a lot brighter than their looks would suggest. :teeth:
  22. I'm (hopefully) back in UK mid Nov....so anytime between then and end of Jan suits me. Not sure if that ties in with anyone else?
