  1. I was half expecting someone to reply with "what do you expect" 😂 I signed up to GR Zoo forum there are members on there DMing ppl offering their cars for 35k until a dealer contacts them offering 36k to sell for more. I think only a handful of people have the cash however they sourced it to drop on a car right now with tax bills due etc. Most ppl would prefer finance. Toyota are increasing interest to 9.9% from 4.9% for later buyers on the mystery list. Also I think the Ford Mustang will face increased demand from last time too! Type R is sold out as well. The toyota was a bargain by comparison I mean this in the lightest jovial way possible but..... Where were you that morning when preorders where live for 90 minutes? I got an email after the fact. I knew it would be that day though! Lol My excuse was I hesitated and only just bought the Z assuming deliveries would be just after summer which they werent. So it would have worked out well if it was delivered early 2023! Anyone that wants a car is either on the waiting list with Toyota yet to reveal what position they are. Or ready to drop cash privately or knows the owner of a dealer whilst on a waiting list. Demo cars cant be sold for 12 months. Demo Reg numbers are being compiled on GR Zoo site. That way ppl know which cars have been run through 😂
  2. I wouldn't be using such terms on here. You mean Irish travellers or Romany Gypsies? Loads of them around. They dont bother anyone here. They might fly tip, collect metal left outside or have one loud party a year. They also invade the park but are swiftly moved on within minutes. Thats about it. In terms of crime the rate is high. Different people are involved. Even locals that know the area. I think we should stay on topic!
  3. People are trying to flip their deliveries at 36-38k 🤣 6-8k over list.
  4. ofcourse work needs to be done. Its the wild west so not suprised. Hire a digger, hi vis and some axes and shovels. No ones looking. Depending on the area it should be that if its at night someone reports noise from works to the council, an inspector comes out and works not approved call police lol...
  5. Just like mine but Manual! Invidia Gemini too. The GT X pipe sounds fruity. Not as deep as Nismo H
  6. Its a fail by the show researchers. Who asked the community for a suitable car.
  7. Settings. As far as I know Window needs resetting and possibly clock. I got a new battery because mine went flat and left me stranded. A trickle charger would have been handy.
  8. I have a charger at my house. The cable is locked in during charge. When charging stops it takes a minute or two to release on both ends. Assuming it works the same for public chargers. Obviously you risk losing your life interfering with a 240 volt cable Maybe theyre relying on safety cut off or being grounded 😂. One mistake....
  9. I blame the Russians for executing the ECU shutdown command from their basement in St Petersburg.
  10. The inevitable VeD and increased charge costs will apply soon. Always the idea!
  11. I thought they were creating petrol like stations in UK with costa coffees/McDonald's and possibly cinemas at this rate of charge 😂. Dont believe the supercharge hype. Many EVs are not able to accomodate supercharge. Some companies were taking responsibility to create them across the country. Service stations should pop up with solely EV charging. Say 12 -16 charging points/bays similar to a petrol station. £7-£10 per charge for now
  12. Electric car conversion businesses are up and coming. Its already there for classic cars. Terrible but as time goes on the mid and late 80s cars will start becoming exempt from Tax and ULEZ.
  13. We cant stop the inevitable. We can however delay the inevitable. Enjoy our cars for a couple more summers. Euro 4 and 5 which Z falls under is at risk.
  14. Yep....only that the GR86 and BRZ weigh 350kg less. Its fun to drive a light car with some power. Anyone feeling flush can import one for £33k door to door as theyre about 24k but theyre rising and they have used car prices syndrome in Japan too. BRZ might be slightly less. All sold out. Bound to get snapped up if any come up for sale. I like how the front looks like a Nismo mk2 and the back like an NSX. But the 3/4 profile like an RCF
  15. This will be mirrored in other cities. Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Cardiff, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Liverpool etc. Next will be small towns with bustling town centers. Death of the high street and local business but whose looking... Once it goes ahead in London I think that will be it. Im reading petrol Euro 4 will be next and Euro 6 Diesel. Isnt that 350Z and BMW Estates mid 2010s or similar. Sooner or later Euro 5 Petrol may be added. 222,000 signed. Cars before 1982 are exempt from ULEZ. Might be a worthy investment 👀. Oh yeah £12.50 a day will not always be £12.50 in typical fashion Change.org petition
  16. Could it be the supercharged black one that was for sale in midlands. Has nismo plate
  17. Famous street racer from Bulgaria/Georgia died few years ago. He was a passenger in someone elses car. Also I knew a guy whose crashed multiple times in Subarus and Motorbikes. Somehow he keeps surviving. The motorbike one had him landing on the opposite side of the dual carriageway with broken hips and shattered waist. The friend landed on the bus stop 60 metres away. Died instantly. Anyway some guy in my area crashed a white AMG GT63 coming off a roundabout. That caused a bit of rubbernecking as it was in the bushes Remember its ageist to suggest younger drivers are inexperienced or the younger crowd watch this content and think its cool
  18. The blind leading the blind. You also have the enablers in the comment section. Most probably dont have licenses and watch similar content Most reasonable people would take it to the track. Not one person commented negatively about the manner of driving. Like you said must be a much younger crowd most without licenses or new drivers. Nothing new though as can't expect people with 500-1000 bhp performance cars on youtube to do 30mph no ones gona watch it lol. Thas why ppl rent runways and can go as fast as the wind allows.
  19. Wow, Tokyo Drifto, getaway driver, catch em if you can! No balls no views right?.......
  20. Saturday in Town center. Clean GT facelift. Good to see more local owners picking this car up and getting something else as we are overrun by German M, S, RS, R, AMG series 👍🏽
