DoogyRev

I could not justify getting a second car "just for this weather" unless we end up like the alps every year.. cant see it happening. I have no problems driving the Zed in the wet, just the ice and snow. I have never driven a car this bad in these conditions!!!

The Zed is my only car..... going stir crazy working from home I have no experience of winter tyres so just wanted to know if with them fitted it would make a difference, which would thus enable me to only take one spare pair of pants out instead of the whole drawer

As I may be looking to get some new wheels in the next year , just wondered everyones thoughts are on not selling the standard RAYS and getting some decent winter tyres fitted on them? Does anyone have any winter tyres on their Zed? Any recommendations?

Can you not remove the cradle and put a bluetooth module in?

Yep I can help you there... their round and look quite firm

I can only simpathise with you, Letting agencies are a pain in the ass. I would have scooped up a large bucket of said sewage and walked up to the Cartwright Marston office, opened the door and then deposited said sewage...... I think they might get the point then I hope you get it sorted

Did you try shutting the boot? I am sure they would all look even more un-impressed I would try to get our Rotty on the boot for a photo, she's a bit old and grumpy now though

Well if you want aggressive I could always rent out our rottweiler

I am I could ask my mum if you can rent a sausage dog for the day

In my experience... I used to work in WAN technologies and had to deal with customers ISP's... the only ISP's I would now go with are either BT or Pipex !!! All others have such bad customer support you will just end up pulling your hair out. BT own the exchanges.. blah blah.. all other ISP's just rent the space from BT. If they have a problem they have to refer to to BT - Chinese wispers get involved then the customer i.e YOU get to pull out own hair out. I am with pipex at the moment, if I was going to change I would go to BT - Just cos someone is offering ADSL at less money does not mean its a better deal !!!!

I saw the Ad the other day and thought how nice it was of them to only include their Kids at the airport....... I guess they were packed off to some kids club as they need "time out" LOL

sorry I tell a lie ..... just been out and checked.... "RD" is the drivers wiper and "RA" is the passenger one. From the photo is does look like they are on the wrong way round

Just a thought.... when the muppet from autoglass came to fit a new windscreen on my Zed he put the wiper arms back on the wrong way and mine did exactly the same. Each arm has a big "R" and "L" on.... just have a quick look and see.... maybe the problem

Hi Ian, Thanks for the reply, sorry for being a total thicky there are some things I get, but offsets seem to be a mystery at the moment. All I have read has just become a blur. Between 12-22...... does that mean they will fit straight on my Zed or will I need spacers................ feel free to me.. LOL

I had some Aero wipers on my Zed whe I got it, did not like them at all, I thinks its worth paying a bit extra to get something decent.... and you will be able to see where your going. Plus PIAA wipers come with some small packets of magic stuff

Sorry to hear about your accident, not good, I hope you get it sorted. The Grit boxes should be well used in this weather, could be a leverage point to get your damage fixed....... come to mention it I dont see so many grit boxes these days.

07 (HR) Onwards. 06 would be a rev-up I have an 07 rev-up model, all the "bonnet buldge" models I have seen have been 57 Plate..... any one on here got an 07 BB model?

If I was going to get some new wheels and just happened to be looking at 10.5 at the rear, and 9.5 at the front in a 19" flavour what would the ideal offsets and tyre size's be? been looking around and just confusing myself

And there was me sat waiting for another hand to be shown

oh for god sake someone left a joker in the pack

Here's my hand....

If I was going for a winter car, one just when the weather is really bad...... I would have to go for a V8 Defender with a winch, snorkel and big nobbly tyres You can also **** about in it and annoy all the ramblers

I was thinking of the very same dilemma just the other evining. Of all the wheels I have looked at I keep being drawn back to silver, maybe be boring but I think it suits the car colour better IMO

Your more than welcome to all the snow you like......I have just got home, absolute nightmare. I came home from Kingsclere to Whitchurch via Newbury/A34 If any one from the Basingstoke area is on line and not home....... its gridlock every where !!! My boss left 2 hrs ago and still aint home yet !!!!
