These have been bothering me for a while, so I thought I'd ask. I've not seen enough Zeds to know if my, somewhat cavernous, boot shut lines are "normal". I'd imagine they're doing wonders for my fuel economy, but more importantly, they're a little unsightly. They look equally large on both sides, so I don't think it's alignment. It's quite like the panel should be slightly more curved. Any thoughts?

Like it. Another finish to consider when mine go in for refurb! So many tough decisions. The light finish really works on that colour, picks the wheels out nicely. We're you shooting cans off the roof? I don't trust my aim that much.

Festival Director: That's an endangered species at most. What would be the scientific purpose of killing it? Steve Zissou: Revenge.

Got a photo.

Got home from work, parked up, picked up my bag from the passenger side, turned my back for a second and there's an almighty whack. Look round in fear... Look at the sheer quantity, I'm not even mad, I'm impressed. It had obviously eaten a 6 egg white omelette and a gallon of vanilla ice cream for lunch, then saved it until I got home. It must be personal now. Back in the car, off to the car wash.

Looks great mate. Really like your wheels, what are they?

Hold both buttons or 3 seconds or maybe 5 seconds? Sure I read it on the Zed Facts thread or similar.

you joke but i still use mine in my car through a tape converter I absolutely loved mine, probably the best gadget I've ever owned, I was gutted when it finally gave up after years of abuse. Nothing I've ever owned stood up to such usage like it did. 10 full albums in your pocket when people were carrying one or two CDs. If it wasn't for MP3 these would've been massive. Great sound too.

Listen you oldies, get with it, my Sony MiniDisc Walkman was where it's at. With full Digital MEGA BASS.

I saw a documentary about this. Is this you SMD? I've seen some well rude ghettoblaster style ipod docks. Christmas present sorted I reckon.

Nice one fellas, I just filled up so I'll add in and brim. Ta.

Picked up some octane booster for the trip up north, just in case like. Halfords were throwing in the STP Petrol Injector Cleaner with it for a small discount, I like a deal, so got some. Before I chuck a load of this into a full tank, just wanted to check it was safe for Zeds? I'm not that keen on the idea of putting anything other than super in the tank so wanted to be extra safe before the lump falls out into the road or some such disaster. Also is this going to fire loads of white smoke out the exhaust like I've seen red-ex do? I need to drive to work first thing and don't need a white cloud following me onto site. Whilst I'm asking, anyone else used it? Snake oil? Any good? Search didn't reveal too many threads.

As long as you're not smacking it, or feeding it, only the filthiest minds would consider that a double entendre!

Interesting. I bet those pipes are bigger than on your zed! It's defo a true dual system too.

Good shout, ta. I've got some spare Kevlar knocking about which I could probably use. Thanks for the tip.

I think the mystery machine at the bottom is for burning holes into polo mints. I continue to be enthrawled by this thread. The old metal has a fascinating history locked up in it.

Looks great. Love the tiny aerial!

I guess I'm still in the honeymoon period! Also I only drink to be social, like, right now, I'm being social with the TV. Doesn't have to be booze!

Since I was lucky enough to get a bottle for my birthday, I now like to relax with a wee (large) dram. I like the fact that the Zed is Japanese, I like the fact that my whisky is Japanese and, what I like most, is that this whisky is one of the best I've ever drank. Smoother than a clay-barred bottom. Gotta hand it to the Japs, they know how to make stuff properly and have oodles of patience. (It's rated at 105 RON, safe for Zeds.) What do you do? "For relaxing times, make it Suntory time." FYI - Drinking and driving isn't cool kids.

At least I feel better about not knowing it's name now. If you pros don't, I had no chance. It can't be Samuel BBK, because all the parts of my car have girls names, otherwise I wouldn't be totally comfortable getting inside her twice a day and driving her wild.

I was changing the boot struts, took off the bracket on the body with the ball which it connects to and the little "double washer" underneath has perished. Any idea what the proper name is so I can google? It sits under this little guy. And is this shape, but it's not metal, it's sort of a stiff paper.

Clarkson is a professional bellend. By that I mean he's paid to be the Clarkson character. It's how he earns his crust. Fair play to him he's made a mint out of it. I'm sure he'd be alright to have a pint with and shoot the breeze but all the nutcasery and "offensive" remarks he ejaculates from his mouth in public are simply geared around pushing the Clarkson character, and it works for him and his no doubt massive country pile and fleet of nice motors. He'll be spunking off about the noise of another car in another clip or another episode.

If you go for a case, I can recommend tech21. They can take knocks very well and do one in pink. http://shop.tech21.uk.com/store/tablets/ipad-2-3-4-cases I do have a vested interest, a mate of mine works there, but it's good stuff, saved my iphone a few times. There's also a cool video of the secret goop they put inside the case. http://m.popsci.com/gadgets/article/2013-01/ces-2013-wrap-goop-around-your-fingers-then-smash-them-hammer

Is that the shadow of a giant wicker man on the reflection of your garage door? Nice job. You've inspired me to get out there!

I loathed iTunes on Windows, so unreliable and slow, but it runs like a dream on my iMac (the 520GB SSD probably helps!). Can't decide if apple make it deliberately rubs on windows or if they simply don't put in enough effort on the transfer. I've got Windows VM, for those odd applications I want. It's the best running windows machine I've ever had!
