Ekona, I've read enough of your posts to believe you didn't mean your comment the way it read, but teenage hormones and fast cars are never going to be a good combination and I agree this is totally thoughtless on behalf of the drivers. Reminds me of an episode of one of those police camera shows I saw recently where a young driver was pulled for driving like a prat and his passengers weren't wearing belts, turned out they had just come from the funeral of some friends who had lost control and crashed into a tree. Some people will only learn the hard way and that is truly unfortunate. But no one deserves to die like that even if it's at their own hands.

Don't slate me for this... but many of you posted on the Paul Walker thread. That car was traveling at approx 100 mph in a built up area with the same consequence, yey no one said they got what they deserved. Absolutely agree these kids shouldn't have been racing, they have paid the ultimate price for their mistake, as previously said, we have all made mistakes but most of us are fortunate to be able to learn from them. I've seen up close the carnage of a car crossing the reservation and it's not pretty, please think about the families of these kids before saying they got what they deserved.

+1 regarding CS in LeIcester, he's managed to clean my bank account for the last two months but the zed is sooo much better for it told my wife eating is so over rated, especially this time of year.

Yu guys are astounding the effort you put in to help other zeds whose owners may not be so technically able (or have the space!) Now all we need is you to move the zed shed to the Midlands so you are nearer to me hope you have a cracking xmas.

I've only got the bank holidays off as I prefer to use my holiday in better weather. That said been home all am waiting to see if office actually have anything for me to do. Keep looking out window at my zed on the drive wishing a. I wasn't "working" and b. The weather was better Hope everyone has a cracking xmas and your zeds all get good prezzies.

Welcome from a fellow Midlander, just South of Derby. Enjoy the car and watch out for zeditis, highly contagious, expensive and fun!

Interested in the net if a sensible price.

Just seen busters headlight tint, looks good and will deff blend in well with my matt grey! Looks like I will be adding head light tints to my ever increasing list!

Buster, I could learn to hate you :D Just when i was happy with the exterior of my car you go and do this!! looks cool

Spent the day at CS having coilovers etc, as always it's a pleasure dealing with Mitz (just wish my bank account felt the same ) seriously though as always excellent service, car looks great (will post pics as soon as i can) Felt the difference on the drive home but will have to play with settings over next few weeks. didn't have time for geo so will get that sorted this w/end. car starting to look sorted now (imo) will start on interior in new year

Hi and welcome from a fellow Derbyshire Z owner, just South of Derby. Could have done with your electrical services last month. I'm sure you will find the right z and enjoy it.

Just done mine, basically the letter of authority to make plates should come with new tax disc and MOT, once you have the letter you can legitimately have plates made and fitted & put replacement tax disc on display.

Mostly get 17 mpg which everything considered is fine by me for a "toy" however last sat drove sensibly -never above 3, 000 rpm on a trip to buster(mostly motorway) and got over 35mpg but was bored to tears so came back a different route on nicer roads and mpg back to normal. If you want economy you have to sacrifice the reason for owning a zed (imo)

Thanks Mitz

My floor mats are very worn and I want to replace them but after market mats look cheap and nasty. Does anyone have new or used mats in good condition that they want to sell.

Remember driving there to pick up a body shell for a Nissan Stanza way back when the garage I worked at wrecked a customer's car that was In for service. Those were the days of the 280Z - my favourite car of the time.

Met Buster from the zed shed today. Buster helped with fitting stevey200's leather seats. They look so much better than cloth and sit lower so now I have some headroom! Buster, It was good of you to help and it was great seeing your zed's and some of the mods you've done, just when i thought my spending was coming to an end!!! Now I have lots more to spend money on. And now i am the proud owner of a zed shed sticker.

R35, I've kind of already agreed to buy off another member, but if it falls through I will get back to you. OV53 that is what i was hoping to hear, as i dont currently have air bags is there any harm in not connecting them?

Hi, I want to fit leather seats but cloth are manual and leather electric with air bags etc. I need to be able to adjust seat. Has anyone done this swop and did you have any problems i.e. is loom compatible?

Grundy, aside from a technical fault with my first choice vinyl which meant choosing an alternative the job takes three - five days. There are a couple of air bubbles that i noticed this morning but i popped into Paul's today and he smoothed them without any effort. Paul is sound and really does a great job, i am sure you will be more than happy.

My thoughts exactly, who wants to run with the herd?

Mark, I could have saved a fortune by buying a nearly new 370 the amount I've spent on this in just six months!! Major service Clutch and flywheel Brakes All 4 tyres Wrap Wheels painted Coilovers - next week Spacers - " Leather seats from stevey200 ?

Hi Buster, if I can sort it with Stevey is this w/end any good? You let me know when is good for you. Apart from my car and the Crispy Kremes is there anything you need me to bring? Beers?

Turtle, no idea of weight but I reckon taking the rear wiper of makes up for it, and looks far better!

Crispy Kremes! Sounds good to me!
