  1. Variable speed limits could be the way forward depending on time / traffic / road conditions / weather etc...
  2. Slashing prices on new models like this is good for the people in a position to buy brand new but stereotypical of the lack of respect manufacturers / retailers have for the consumer. This will have a knock on effect to existing owners and it will slash the second hand market values just as much. This price is much closer to the mark of what this type of car should be available for.
  3. Today about five minutes ago... K13*** on Millbrook Road West going towards West Quay. I like the black 350 badge with the red Z
  4. Just seen you again Brownhill Road by David Lloyd!
  5. What you looking for? Thats the trouble unfortunately with non stock sizes Haven't found them in standard rear 18's yet.
  6. Polarised lens, very good accessory. Makes blue skies bluer and reduces reflections too. You will find this an invaluable purchase with many uses.
  7. IMHO the 350Z is never going to compete with big power 4x4 which is unfortunate. Surely looks / aesthetics should come into it too?
  8. Roughly on costs then you would need to get 10k out of 453 / VUS tyres and 14k out of MPSS (mileage figures are only for ease of comparison and are just made up to show the percentage) to return same cost per mile. I'm not convinced you will get that 40% extra life from the MPSS to make them worth it in that sense...
  9. However not being very successful at finding them in the rear wheel size...
  10. Well on reading the reviews I may be trying the Vredestein's. I currently have the MPSS and have no issues with them at all but with the price difference again I'm back to the VUS
  11. Perhaps a set of Irwin Bolt Grips or something similar. I got a set when I rounded off sump plug on my Saab.
  12. At the end of the day Amber means stop at that point in the sequence, forward it to the police. If more people thought about their driving then I reckon our roads would be a better place to drive on.
  13. I suppose if you find one that has had an engine rebuild recently but then as already said, the mpg is appalling for what is effectively a 1.3 engine and then you will probably spend as much on oil.
  14. At some point regardless of how well you look after a rotary engine it will need a rebuild. I personally can't see why people bother with them...
  15. MG ZS 2.5 V6 Cheap as chips to buy but a lot of car for not a lot of money in my opinion...
  16. I would prefer the nicer interior if size wasn't an issue.
  17. Evoque, i do like them although I think the Evoque is nothing more than something that should have been badged a Freelander Sport. However badging it Range Rover allows them to add several thousands to the price.
  18. Thought I would try and start an embarrassing, why would buy that numberplate thread?
  19. This is an awesome thread and an interesting undertaking that I could never dream of doing!
  20. I enjoy Top Gear but there are so annoying / boring sections like the star in a reasonably priced car and sometimes there are parts that are too rehearsed and contrived as there is no way they jut happened like the way they depict it. Perhaps the str should be replaced with an audience member or a competition winner...
