  1. I saw a build sheet for a mk7 Golf GTi *basic spec which was 10k less than RRP. Fair to say VW are able to build cars a lot cheaper than Nissan due to the massively shared platform of the Golf, compared to what will be the Z35. If RRP is to be 35k for the new base Z car, I would guess the cost to build and ship to a dealer would be nearer 28k. So yes, poor maths guessing 10k lol
  2. Have you ever actually seen a cost price for a new vehicle?
  3. Saw this at the Midlands Z meet just gone, noisy as hell!!!
  4. Rarely do i get to see my car through the lens of a camera other than my own, thanks to @cob1980 for the below pictures from last night's mini meet Proper nice low light captures thank you

    What is this?

    Bingo
  6. Very classy!!! Can tell lots of work gone into this
  7. Sounds bonkers too, been out in it before and even up to 3k feels like it's idling ready to let rip. I moves like a 350z with another one pushing it from behind, guess that makes sense as it's double VQ35 hp @Charlie Boy motor
  8. Amazing pictures and very nice industrial location
  9. Few locals landed for a drive out round the manor - great to catch up chaps
  10. Throughout the morning cars were leaving then around 1pm cars just stopped leaving, so had a huddle and agreed to go for an after-party drive out Team no homes Pulled up pass Tywcross
  11. It's not often I don't take enough pictures but I was honestly overwhelmed with the attendees!!! She's reloaded Now off to the Z meet
  12. Took longer than 6 days but she's very nearing completion, more than happy with the looks now. Over a factory GT, its more towards a GTS feel. Inline with what manufacturers currently offer for their sport cars ie suspension, exhaust, wheels, diffuser, splitter, alcantra and carbon options. Edit - bumped her down a notch, from Clubsport to GTS
  13. Think yourselves lucky you don't have blue tips, no abrasives recommended

    What do we think

    Seems fine to me
  15. No product is going to keep the tip/s looking cleaner for longer, all they'll do is make it easy to keep clean. It'll still need a quick go over as part of your maintenance wash. https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/exterior/metal-care/metal-cleaning-polishing
  16. All morning and didn't even video my own car

  23. Since having the new burnt tip exhaust fitted, it's become even more apparent the rear was lacking presence. Having stainless roll tips before helped give shape to the rear, which was now lacking. Picked up the bits below and set about fitting these prior to the Midlands Z meet on Sunday. Massive thank you to @CLASSIX for prepping and painting the rear spats, a perfect colour match and glossy finish. Soon after @ShortPaul was selling a DE bumper insert and who can say no to a bit of carbon. First up, the easy part. The diffuser took muck fettling to sit right against the bumper. Spats also needed contouring, grinder stones and emery paper required once bulking areas marked out. Never dealt with any type of bondo but slapped out the tiger seal. Heat gun also helped to relax the fibreglass. Left to cure and the next day, ta damn  Considering I've not done any minor body fitting before, I was quite proud of myself for getting stuck in.
  24. Posh C0CK rings Nah nice one fella, it's all the little touch's that make one big impact. See you Sunday too chap
