Two Nissans.

Great photos. Would you recommend Javelin? I used to swear by bookatrack but the last day I was at with them it was a swarm of race cars in the 500-800kg range with only one road car. I was in a caterham myself, but I wouldn't have wanted to be in a Z that day.

Digging up all the roads without double yellows for wireless charging really isn't going to happen. A government project of that scale is always going to be a disaster.

This, the "living in flats/rented house issue", is why I think EVs are not going to properly take off until they will drive off fully automated and go charge themselves, returning for when they're needed.

Westfield Mega S2000. I had a Caterham hire at Donnington recently and I think I need to have something utterly unpractical in my life sooner or later. I can take my 370 to Sainsburys and do a reasonable shop. I want a single carrier bag to be the limit... ...I hate shopping.

Starting the car when it's on a lift is a PITA. I'd consider this mod (with a switch to disable it) for that alone. Unless thrust bearings are failing before clutches need replacing (are they? I haven't been here very long), I don't see a need to do it to save the bearing.

The clutch slave cylinder doesn't count, right?

My totally standard car which I've owned for a couple of months. I'm trying to not modify the 370Z as I already have a 200SX with 4 pages of bullet-pointed modifications as a project car...

Caveat emptor is for buying privately. As long as there's no wilful misleading, tough luck. A dealer has many responsibilities, though. The car can be rejected within 30 days for example (e.g. discovering that the inside edges were bald or a horrible knock develops or the CEL comes on) and then for the first 6 months beyond that, the burden of proof of a fault being pre-existing (and therefore the dealer should sort it out) lies with the dealer (i.e. they should generally fix it providing it's with the expected age/condition - a car with 5K on has different standards to an old banger for £250). Warranties are on top of the dealer responsibilities, optional, and run by loss adjusters who love not to pay out, so make sure you read the fine print.

Whilst I admire the Tesla Roadster and would have one in a heartbeat, I think citing the annual outlay on tax/fuel for the c63 as a factor in purchasing a £150K+ car might have more than a touch of man maths about it.

The Z is my sensible second car.

The video is set to private.

Probably just corrosion holding it on. If you can manage access, put bolts mostly back in the hub, but not all the way ( a couple of mm between head and knuckle) and smack the head of the bolts with lump hammer (via a bar with a socket on if it helps with access).

They only drive 1,500 miles a year (according to the MOT history) so I'm guessing old guy/gal ?

I don't know the rules on thread resurrection, but google sent me here. If you have access to a 3D Printer, these printed at 75% size on my Prusa i3 Mk3 produced perfectly sized clips for fixing the mats to my 370Z: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3113519 The car has 129K on it and no-one had fixed the mats yet
