  1. Welcome to the forum!
  2. Still coming. Had to get the car washed at a local place, was filthy this morning and didn't have time to do it myself. Don't judge me xD
  3. That seems a little low - how much of your driving is around town? I'm getting ~27 for my commute, which is 30 miles of mixed dual carriage way and crawling around Hitchin & Luton. I do go up through the gears fairly quickly I suppose. Hadn't even thought of speed bumps being an issue until I read your post! Been hoofing it a 20mph over the ones near me! Might put a stop to that, especially as I've got my eye on a Nismo body kit Glad you're having fun with the Zed
  4. Really? I'll be living just across the way in Furzton! Could you PM me the address please?
  5. It's for the weekend (stag do!)
  6. Welcome! Got to love the colour
  7. Hi gents, looking forward to the meet in a few days! Should be moving in next week. Quick question: I'm driving to MK and then getting a lift elsewhere - where's best to park the car? Free is preferable but not essential. Don't like the idea of leaving it on some side road, not my new baby!
  8. Received mine, first great! Valve caps are a great touch too. Will be taking some photos tomorrow hopefully. Cheers Tom!
  9. Cheers gents, very helpful.
  10. Welcome to the forum, what I'd give for no speed limits!
  11. Welcome, I'm a newbie too.
  12. Thanks @Ekona - by paying extra, do you mean they'll charge above the odds for parts and labour than somewhere like Japex? I'd need to figure out whether the time and effort of taking the car an hour down the road would be worth it. Cheers.
  13. 8 gives me time to escape the grey hell that is Luton
  14. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk Looking forward to it gents.
  15. I've just spotted I'll be living very close to this garage (<1 mile). The reviews online are rather mixed to say the least. If they are any good, that'd be fantastic and save me the hours' drive to Japex. Suggestions very welcome! (linky: http://www.glynhopkin.com/nissan/contact-us/nissan-milton-keynes/)
  16. I'm good for weekends, looks like a healthy MK Zed community! As I don't know MK yet, I'm all open to suggestions - Deano, what's the car meet by Staples all about?
  17. Awesome, should be moving in fairly soon so will let you know
  18. Hi George, I've just bought myself a red Z and love it. Now I've seen yours though...where did you find the body kit? I've been looking around but always end up on US sites, which I'm not entirely comfortable ordering from!
  19. Hi, enjoy the car!
  20. Hi gents, I'm moving to Milton Keynes in the next couple of weeks, I've got the impression that there's a few Z members in MK or nearby. It would be great to meet up, maybe have a drive around MK as I don't know the area at all (and all the better hearing it from a Z owner! )

  22. Ha ha! I don't think that is the one as yours has smart wheels that look good with the red. The one I was on about originally (I think!) was in Mansfield just north of Nottingham and I am sure it had "plain" silver alloys. I had only wanted to go see it on the way up to my parents' house for Christmas break - at that point I was not yet ready to buy anyway. Is that the one? Cheers Yeah it's the very same! The guys in Mansfield did up the alloys at my request for zero cost, which was a surprise! Booked in an advanced driving lesson, as I'm 95% stupid grin and 5% panic when the tail kicks out (first rear wheel drive). How's the search going?
  23. Ah good to have someone nearby! I'm below par when it comes to my automechanical knowledge, trying to improve it and do some work on the Z once I'm 100% sure I know what I'm doing. Do you do much work on your own? (I'm guessing your're currently driving the Jag). The link sends me to a list of about a dozen Zs on Pistonheads, may be a cookies issue or something (I'm a network engineer by trade), which do you have an eye on?
