  1. Ive got one installed during Covid for like 400 with government grant. Theyre now £1000 or so for 22kwh. It takes 5 hours to reach 80% on the Kia Niro.

     

    Its a good feature to have if selling the house. Plus never know  i might see an electric roadster itll be convenient. Plus might be able to rent it out for ppl visiting the area and charge them to charge on the driveway. Ours is pod point

    Got a new ID4 arriving on Tuesday, not my choice but my company are going carbon neutral so EV’s are the only option. 6.7 secs doesn’t sound bad for a daily but the sitting at a charger for over an hour isn’t something I’m looking forward to…

     

    Over an hour? Supercharger?

    Proper bonkers isn't it.

    No Faraday cage gonna help you.

     

     

    Crazy, need a pin or fingerprint access. Using biometrics. With all the tech that should be standard. When you wish to sell the car clear all drivers using a pin and let the new owner register their biometrics (Finger print and Face ID).

     

    The new EVs have internal cameras that monitor your eyes. You can use that for verification to not only deactivate the immobilizer for quick start but also register biometrics.

     

    The tech is there already. Especially with Ghost Alarm.

     

    Mercedes also had a 4 wheel lock mechanism for when the car gets lifted by a tow truck. Lol

    I wish I did. Always fancied a R32 but alas out of reach now. A few years ago was offered one for 7k 😔

     

    your profile gif goes with the comment. Lol...came across a guy that was offered one (R32) for 19k 2 years ago by his mate. At the time they were mid 30s. Only regret is a 20k Auctioned R34 on Ebay back in 2010. Oh well. A few members do have multiple Nissans

  5. I kinda guessed signal blockers were old news. With the KiAs being taken the next step would be a database of key codes to circumvent signal blockers. In my area reports of cars stolen with keys protected

    ...

     

    Steering Lock, Ghost Alarm, protect your stuff.

  6. Im assuming France has a standard customs duty similar to UK at 10%. You can import one from a neighbouring country such as Germany or Netherlands which has a high amount of Z.  If you know anyone in those countries they can buy it for you and send it as a gift. Check up on the rules regarding customs duty. 

     

    Get it registered and local IVA and inspection might cost a bit over there. Good luck!

    You're braver then me, there's no way I'd let someone drive mine like that.

     

    Genuine question though, who is this guy? It's like he's sprung up from nowhere and everyone's letting him take their cars out. Shows that in the right hands 370z can certainly keep up with the competition 

     

    He works at the ring as a Ring Driver and Youtuber. Hes been around for a long time on YouTube. 

     

    Speaking of letting others drive. It was good to let my younger brother drive the Nismo and funny. Never got to drive his Supra 2JZ though. Its good to experience your car as a passenger. 

     

    Eddie you around next weekend, im just down the road. Can come look at your Z if you dont mind?

    I bought my V1 similar time to you (Jan 2021) About a year ago I went to do a 2 year ownership write up and after reading your write up I honestly couldn't of put it any better then you had, so I never did :lol: I've read so many journalists review on these cars and doesn't come close to yours! 

     

    Appreciate that sir! I still cant believe the price you got it and its condition. Ill keep an eye on your thread. Maybe youll be along on one of Daveys runs. I might not make the first ones as no car yet 😂
