Wow that's something to look forward too, very exciting indeed.

Burning clean chap!!!! Good score

No we won't, not by owners of this forum anyways.

Sounds like you have USDM switches in that case. I had mine from an Jap import which I know work fine.

I did this upgrade and fitted JDM drivers and passenger side switches which were plug and play.

Don't normally like red for a sports car but imo this looks so good. Be interesting to see what Evolve Automotive do with their demo car.

Nope

Buying a vehicle with a bald tyre is my own fault and if I'm not capable of checking basic visuals should have commission a vehicle inspection to do so It costs a garage to put a warranty on a vehicle, it's not free so makes sense to utilise this provision. But we agree a vehicle fault after the point of sale isn't the garages responsibility - yay.

What pre existing vehicle fault could occur on the way home that couldn't have been found when viewing the car? This is why some people commission a vehicle inspection prior to purchase, which helps resolve that worry. No example provided to back up what you have said at all. Not on about an existing faulty, on about a fault that has devolved after purchase and within the warranty period. Its the role of the warranty provider to step in and oddly provide warranty. This is the strange thing about forums, a conversation like this face to face would react a conclusion in 10mins and we'd move on. This way its a long drawn out process sadly, thanks for your time.

Doesn't happen like that in the real world, you call your own breakdown service to recover to a garage. The garage informs you of what's needed, you then advise then the vehicle is covered by aftermarket warranty. The garage submits a claim to the warranty company and they agree a price. Then either the warranty company pays the garage direct or you do the customer and claim the costs back from the warranty provider. I'm speaking from personal experience and this is the role of the warranty company not the retailer. How does contacting the retailer expedite the above scenario? Do you have an example or any back up of when a retailer sidesteps the aftermarket warranty company and go above and beyond to resolve the matter?

You've broken down one evening, couple hours away from home reason alternator failed. In detail what do you expect the retailer to do?

I'm pretty sure all they need to do is direct you to the warranty provider, which isn't the retailer but the warranty company ie warranty wise, warranty direct, Motor easy etc and to be fair they'd rather the customer go direct to them to resolve any issues first hand. Also alot of retailers don't have an onsite facility to repair vehicles, also the owner could be circa 8hrs round trip away, how is it feasible to go back or for them to broker the repair? Some retailers apply possibly their own warranty on the vehicle but most will use a third party, to which it's their responsibility to advise the customer and discuss any claims. Much like a bump in a vehicle, would you go back to the retailer? If you have first hand experience whereby the above is incorrect, I'd like to hear it genuinely.

These from what I gather Motordyne ART pipes are the best sounding cat replacement pipes, not cheap but A1 quality and the best note. I've recently fitted a pair to my 350z and sounds amazing, believe it or not less rasp than with OE cats and Zero drone. https://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/nissan/nissan-350z/motordyne-nissan-370z-advanced-resonance-tuning-art-test-pipes.html

Surely for any vehicle faults, the owner would speak to the warranty provider if still within the period. Granted some warranty companies will be easier to deal with than others but unless they're owned by Junc17 it's not really the retailers fault if they choose to sidestep their responsibility. Of course could be wrong in my understanding of circumstance.

OP has already stated a second car isnt an option.

I remember a mate buying a set of Avon ZZ5 tyres and we both thought, yep that's an ugly sidewall that you'll see every time you look at the car, would bug me no end - but everyone is different. I wouldn't choose a pretty tyre on looks alone, but I wouldn't buy an ugly one if that makes sense.

Who do they use?
