  1. A bit painful having to dip in the savings again to buy an LSD after spending on the car. From what ive seen there are many options better than OEM. That can be customized to suit your style.
  2. Looks like a makeshift wooden casket. What a way to go!
  3. Shouldn't really do this but one last bump for those looking.
  4. EQ range is going a bit mad. Only that most people cant afford it. The used car market will only appreciate and anyone in that business will still be making money post 2030. Thats because little jimmy who lives in the sticks needs something to get him from A to B for under 5 grand. Wana know what the used EV market looks like. Its more like renting a battery paying monthly then buying a maintenance pack unless you can find an independent shop. Or you can buy replacement batteries for a couple of grand and hope for the best out of warranty with other components. The conversion companies are still charging upwards of 10k to convert your ICE or hybrid. Even the hyped up convert for 2k has a catch. For me to convert my CRZ to full EV will not be cheap. Also youd want a battery and drivetrain that offers a minimum power, decent 200 mile plus range and realistic Torque so youre not regretting the change. Thats going to cost a much newer car.
  5. According to Nissan Product Planning Sport Trim will NOT come with LSD for 2022 model.
  6. If people are thinking of the new M3/M4 i think they will be around £50,000 even then. The older M4 and M2 Competition will be around £30-£35k used. Competition will be stiff. In terms of new cars most similar cars are around the £50,000+ mark. From F Type, Supra to Cayman. If Nissan are offering Performance pack at £45,000 it still undercuts all those cars including the TTRS and is in line with Supra 2.0. Being a rebodied 370Z a price cap of £40,000 initially should be okay but it still wont sell huge numbers. As in 2000+ year 1 in Europe Thats the issue for Renault Nissan group. Put it at 30k and adjust finance options and theres a whole new crowd interested. That for an ex demo or used car sure. It wont be the performance pack though Also Nissan Comms confirmed no LSD on sport spec for 2022 model!! So its not really $40,000 for something with an LSD which should be standard
  7. On another note, some of "yall" need to enquire about the new Z. I can provide a template if you wish! Those previously dissapointed need to do their duty. Putting community first, ahead of personal pride 😂 Regards GTE 😉
  8. ill message my HPC guy to do some digging. Edit: Hes going to ask around.
  9. I threatened to buy a GR86 instead in numerous Youtube videos. I also pressured a top sales guy that my business is going across the road to Toyota for the 86. Im joking....either way ive registered for the 86. My brothers Supra is swaying me. I was looking at Supra prices and realistically youre waiting 3 years to get the Z to the UK for under £30k excluding duties. Ill do some digging... importing is a f***ing headache according to few people ive spoken to. Im ready to buy if thats the case mate. If it ends up coming here, Prices will be matched and marked up to offset cost of importation by the manufacturer as well as conversion for emissions so either way it wont be cheap. Be ready to pay at the very least £40k.
  10. Salad bowl for breakfast, pomegranates and watermelon for lunch. Occasional juicing with a juicer. Long walks in yorkshire country. Light dinner, washed down with alkaline water(not a scam). Youll be fine!
  11. Greta and the gang are in for the long haul if theyre trying to meet net zero emissions. A lot of talk of banning polluting cars from town centers across Europe. UK tries to set an example meanwhile the Germans still operate a high speed unlimited autobahn 🤣🤣. Post 2030 most performance ICE cars will be worth a lot more than they are today.
  12. Either way the DE will end up at £500 and HR at £1000 one day. All a ploy to get people off the road or into EVs.
  13. Got my discs skimmed by an engineer in Cambridge! Learnt a lot that day tbh
  14. Massive hoard of 174 classic cars sit in North London warehouse https://mol.im/a/9954655 via http://dailym.ai/android Silly bugger should have worn a mask 😂
  15. Not the same lol....best get the paintbrush 🖌️ ready
  16. will probably be more expensive than the current Audi 4 door EV Saloon at £100,000 Its a concept but i can see it going to production as an EV or Hybrid
  17. GT Spirit 1/18 is out in February. They only have the yellow. I think customs will apply. They need more colours
  18. Id play on the katana sword by wrapping it and adding handles maybe an anime character on the side gripping it..... Lol When designers design cars its not purely for the best looking car. A lot of the time its symbolic of what they want it to represent. Japanese tend to sway towards a design story (previous generations) or using shapes or representations and molding from there. You could design an amazing looking car. Only to be told it looks like a try hard version of Porsche or Aston Martin. Take it to an art gallery and there will be people that dont like it no matter how you try to fix it. Is it not better to design it with honest intent on what you want to convey than trying to please people that probably wont buy it anyway?! Lol.... . In attempting to make it unique he may have lost a few marks for looks. It is what it is. Im glad they didnt go with the red modern hatchback that looks like a C-HR. 240, 300, 370 combo is fitting for the last ICE Z albeit imperfections
  19. Yep, less issues than the E92. Theyll go up for sure. Aside from Vanos etc they seem like good cars. What about the Z4 M same engine in a coupe/roadster. They are getting pricier
  20. 5.4 V8? Probably still 23 mpg i wont be suprised the older v6, v8 mercs are actually suprisedly economical. Good shout definitely not common.
  21. "theres no value in the market" - Alex Ferguson
  22. https://racecarsdirect.com/Advert/Details/123257/ex-playstation-academy-370z Heres one that been ragged by a whole academy 😂. Im sure has been maintained very well Tbh any used car has that element of risk
  23. Saw one on Autotrader. 68,000 miles 2011. MOT history is decent. Assuming 5 were of the same family maybe lol https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202108276692705?advertising-location=at_cars&postcode=ha28qr&model=370 Z&page=1&make=NISSAN&include-delivery-option=on&sort=relevance
