  1. Where abouts are you? May be interested if your anywhere near wigan
  2. Right Im scooting off for the night need some sleep before the daily grind but ATTAK Z I have a deep love for the Vulcan and am happy to be able to say I am one of a handful of people from my generation to be fortunate enough to have worked on one of those majestic creatures! Night folks.
  3. Thanks for the birthday wishes and band lol, am well used to stereotypical Merc drivers as I'm also a long time biker. The thought of this guy considering valuing my car to get back at me just made me shiver haha. Day was not spoiled at all been out and about since 6am having loads of fun and ended the day with me and the missus going for a blast in my beloved z which I kissed and told to ignore the clueless idiot on the way home. I feel fine now I'm just about to tuck into my birthday Minstrels and play a bit of WoW before bed. cheers all and good evening
  4. Some shithouse in a Merc just followed me all the way from Ormskirk to Southport, getting up my arse flashing his headlights (causes me pain from a medical condition I suffer from). The reason for this was me being in front of him and stuck In traffic thus blocking him (nice logic fail I know). So I pull in at my destination pub just outside southport and the guy pulls in just to tell me he'd valued my car at £4k while he was driving (showed me his phone) attempted to berate me for driving a "@*!# car" then after a heated discussion drove off in his merc estate that will be a taxi in two years, leaving me confused and fuming! Im here now ranting! Also on the way home I met an awesome chap driving an RS5, we joined forces like bros and drove back to Wigan, it was awesome. Hello.

  6. Hello, thank you all for some fantastic information, very useful. Im due a review soon and am going to ask for the government rate for fuel. I don't do much mileage for my job (design engineer) but I want to be compensated fairly. Thanks again, excellent quality of responses
  7. Hi all, Are any of you familiar with negotiating expenses for using your own vehicle for work? I am expected to travel to visit clients etc from time to time and currently receive £0.32 per mile for my expenses. I calculate my actual cost based on 20mpg at £0.29 per mile based on fuel at £1.30. So at present I am covering fuel cost. Unsure whether it is fair that I should ask for more. As you can guess I am not really familiar with this form of negotiation. Are any of you able to shed any light on the subject? Calculations based on: http://www.thecalculatorsite.com/conversions/fuelconsumption.php 130/4.4= 29.5p per mile @20mpg
  8. TY all. 37k on the clock and it feels brand new. Best thing I ever did was get this car. Cant wait to get up in the morning to drive to work xD
  9. Good evening all. Thought Id re-up myself as a new member. Ive been lurking on here for months reading taking in what has to be said. Much searching through old threads. Well, picked up my z on Friday and instantly fell in love with it. thought id developed a clunk after a few miles but it was just the spare wheel nuts clacking about in one of the hidden storage places haha. Also had great fun doing my first IAM lesson in it on Sunday in Bolton. Anyway re-greetings.
  10. Thanks all. Will continue to lurk and soak up as much as I can before I get my car. Spent months looking into the minutia xD Budgets set, focused on what I want. currently thumb twiddling while I wait for my bumbling go slow mechanic to get his thumb out his pooper and prepare one of my bikes for sale. ugh. Anyway im in the Wigan area. See plenty of z's kicking about but never seen an oc sticker (do you do those?).
  11. Hello Raj. I am interested in this car. Can you please post some images of the damage to the bodywork?
  12. Good evening, Been a lurker on here for some time, thought id sign up and say hello before I take the plunge and buy my first z. The only thing standing in my way at the moment is the sale of my two motorbikes then its ON! If anyone catches this message and has bought a car from Trade Link id love to hear from you with your opinions regarding the process of buying your car and how it was for you afterwards. Greetings,
