  1. In the past I have changed my cars and bikes like the weather, but realised it's a false economy for me, so now I just "collect them". I drive my trucks and vans for my business on a day to day basis and when I only had my RA50 V6 Pathfinder as a daily I enjoyed it, then bought a 5.7 V8 Jeep with the intention of selling my RA50, but I just couldn't face waving her off to live with some one else so I've kept her. After getting the V engine bug I started looking for a sports coupe weekend car and came to my current Zed, she only gets driven occasionally but after nearly 2 years of owning and modding, I've started to lust after a boosted V8, a JAG XKR 4.2, to be precise, but I won't be getting shot of my Zed, no chance, but I will be buying a XKR next year for sure........ after the Missus has been bought her Volvo C70 convertible I'll be 'allowed' my XKR lol
  2. This will be the next car getting added to the toy collection, hopefully next year. I've hankered after a XKR for years and there are some really good well looked after cars on the market just now. Unfortunately for me I promised my wife her new car this year so the XKR will have to wait, but as soon as finances allow next year I will be getting one. 400bhp straight from the crate and timeless styling. .....For the money they are selling for now...even low mileage ones, it would be rude not to add one to the stable.
  3. As above, I'm heading down with the missus, my son and his girlfriend for this show, any members heading there this weekend. We've got the Saracens Head Hotel in Towcester booked for the weekend.
  4. One word ............ EPIC B) B) :thumbs:
  5. :cloud9: THAT is a superb looking Zed mate
  6. Doubt you'll get that guarantee on a 10 years old second hand box that's got 70k - 90k miles through its cogs bud !!
  7. Come down to Crail race track this Saturday mate, I've got a private 350z club track day going on. There will be about 20 cars going out, not all Zeds but there will be plenty for you to see and and get passenger rides in, should be enough to get you in a Zed of your own quicker than planned details here http://www.350z-uk.c...ile-thrash-day/ Welcome to the forum Wow thanks, really appreciate the offer. I am 100% interested in that. Would be great if you could drop me pm with a few more details. Your welcome, all the details are in the link I think but if you need more let me know. Starts at 10am but we'll all be there around 8.45 9 ish for the Marshalls meeting before we're allowed on the track. Come along you'll have a blast and it'll be free for you to passenger with us.

  9. The de engines are bloody good strong engines and the gearboxes though notchy are strong. Revup models offer a bit more grunt and as said I think the notchy box issue was ironed out, but don't be put off by a notchy box...... not all are like that, mines is but I've learned how to change gear on mine and don't get any issues worth bothering about, although it used to p155 me off during early ownership, but now I'm fine with it. Buy on condition and backed up service history, not just a stamped service book, make sure all the reciepts are there too, or even better, buy one off a member on here, you'll know your getting an enthusiast's car and will more than likely have been properly looked after. Welcome to the forum
  10. I don't see how 650k more votes out of a 5m population in a decisive vote for staying. Sturgeon and SNP have had my vote for 32 years but not anymore. I've woken to her....sadly

  12. Congrats mate all the best for the future
  13. Sp10 every time I drive her
  14. You could try Zmanalex Jeff... It was Alex that got mine when Hensh65 owned it prior to me
  15. Service history and buying from an enthusiast is usually the best call IMHO. Buying one off a member on here just adds to the confidence of the buy, especially if they have run a build thread.
  16. . Stops your eml light coming on if your running a decatted exhaust system.......... I hope !!!
  17. Thanks guys, Torqen haven't got any in stock so I'll give Chris at Dynatune a call.
  18. Why would you just drain the radiator coolant and not the whole system ?. Not having a go, just seems pointless imo.
