  1. Over 200 votes on a poll I did the other day. Seems folks aren't overly concerned about speed and more so involvement, given the choice. The people have spoken 😁
  2. Exactly right. Had they joined with Mercedes (already in bed on the Infinity line) to make a new Z35/SLK chassis vehicle, using MB running gear and switches like what Toyota did with the Supra folks would have being saying "it's not a real Z car, they've sold out the fans" and you wouldn't have heard the last of it. Can't win either way 😭
  3. Exactly, it suits the intended market. After the 350z, the aim of a raw driving experience went out the window
  4. Makes sense and tuned easily to R35 GTR power, an auto is just the way
  5. Same. I think I'm the flesh it's a smart looking car. The measure I use is does the base model car (the one featured) look just a little bit good? Say for example a mitsubishi lancer saloon is an awful looking car, but the Evo looks wonderful. The new Z with the right kit plus the EU model would have a no. plate up front to break up the grille, wheels, spoiler and ride height would look immense imo.
  6. In the words of Daniel Bryan - Yes Yes Yes!!
  7. Tasty stuff. Is that the one with the carbon bonnet? 😄
  8. Mine has always been the same even following a gear oil change with molyslip. After the first 5 - 6mins it's ok and until then I shift 1st to 3rd which is no bother for a big VQ.
  9. Looks a great bit of kit and having v bands a doddle to fit too
  10. I could watch that opening few corners again and again. I believe that's known as a short back and sides 😅 https://youtu.be/ZANotpFRoMo
  11. Daily driver - auto Weekend toy - manual
  12. Tidy work. There's a nack to getting tough wiper arms off. Cap off, nut off and push down on your palm at the joint/hinge which aligns the tapered splines and she'll come right off. Method worked on my 31yr old Nissan Sunny arms, what had never been off 👍
  13. The future of motoring as seen in Milton Keynes
  14. She's in good hands, nice low mileage example
  15. Wet sanding time. 2000/4000 by hand on a foam pad. Rear quarter panel before 2000 wet sand, followed by 4000. 3 passes afterwards using wool/blue cutting pads 2 passes of the black foam finishing pad
  16. Few of ol' girl from today's South Wales day out. Circa 330 miles at 30mpg, nor bad at all.
  17. South Wales 2023 ✅ Thank you everyone for making this EPIC!! M5 pre meet Abergavenny start point A Abergavenny start point B Late breakfast stop off Gun range pull up Mountain top checkpoint Dinner stop, where we picked up a rouge 350z owner 😁 Finish line
  18. Might be advantageous you reading that post again slowly, to understand the context of who's speaking Everyone, good night - sleep well and see you all tomorrow 😁
