just remember to run them in parallel and not in series

i've apparently aged 40 years because of my car choice

because i've already made and sent him one

they look really good, if i wasn't about to be hit by OFSTED tomorrow i'd have come over and had a look. they are far better than alot fo others, yours blend better in to a more solid beam of light compared to others where you can see the individual LEDS more prounounced.

oh god the amount of people who have what seems to be a comprehensive opinion on the driving atributes of a car. but when asked "have you driven one?" they never bloody have. I had an MR2 roadster and S2000, the amount of people on here alone who said "thats a hair dressers car" but never drove one. i find it funny that on here lots of people says "the zeds a proper mans car" yet the influx of women on here has almost been greater than the blokes

worst car i've driven possibly the daewoo matiz the very early ones before they were bought out by chevrolet. my gran had one and when she died i had to drive it back from manchester to essex for my parents. i swear the suspension was made of victoria spounge, the brakes were china plates i'm no even sure the steeering wheel was fully attached to the rack. wind buffetting was extreme. even a scooter could buffet it, so going past lorries was like driving in a hurricane.wheels so small i think they were taken off a roller skate. a handbrake cable that i'm sure was made of strawberry laces knotted together. panels so thin it could have been laminated paper. i could go on

sorry i don't have a sarcasm smiley

+ 1 Ultimate "Avoid" machine yes those BMW M1's were terrible cars and the Z4M was a hideous car and this old 2800 is just a munter

anything made by nissan..and i mean anything cheap and crap. made from plastics found on an indian landfill, and driven by people who feel they have a point to prove to anything that has any power just because they drive a nissan. blah blah blah... my cheap arse nissan is quicker than your [insert premium brand here] and it cost me half as much as your [insert premium brand here] and it goes round a long german race track faster than fast thing on fast juice. etc etc etc and then has the clarriages to sit there and insult every other car going. stones and glass houses spring to mind

good build quality

lol at the 3 car race, lonny herbert was a great driver, loved watching him race.

just watched the last 5 min of that race, cracking driving

I think you realise how good they are and how easy they make it look when someone elses tries to do it. i agree it takes skill, the speed you need to maintain for the car to work goes against everything your body is telling you to do. carry more speed when you should be braking etc. braking way later, and then contending with very high speeds. but even though it takes great skill i have more fun watching things like the truck racing at snetterton with 4 pickups side by side round a bend and 1 oon the dirt all fighting for the lead, now thats fun watching. DTM and BTCC are also good. and if i want to watch true driver skill i like to watch the rally. its just a shame all the big manufacuturers pulled out. i hope they all come back

i love the engineering behind F1, the car tech etc.

senna was a leg end, but of recent times i tend to find watching F1 like watching a 52 lap parade. its got better but my heart is still in old school F1 with senna, hill, mansell, lauder etc

sounds about right

Nice purchase, I was looking at the 182 cups, are they good?

My xkr if it was unmodded would have been £200 this year for me. and I'm only 31.

Dont know about him not being a fan of jap cars as I remember warching him in a skyline and loving it this was years ago . Don't even think it was even a TG episode and his hair was even worse than it is now.Also remember how he loved the GTR compared to the Jag as he said buy the one made for the job and not the one given a facelift or something like that. he also loved the honda S2000..another one of my old cars :grin:

you joke but i still use mine in my car through a tape converter

You think this bad, should have seen the GTROC after that Scottish bint that was on TG a while back said she sold her R35 & her reasons for disliking it i forgot about her, dont get me started on the R35, thats another car i hate with a passion

So in answer to your question less than yours It's not that bad really - just you find it all when you strip it down! I am on my 2nd 5KG roll of mig wire though oy i'm rust free now....well almost

What % of the car is still original, and how much is now weld

Calm down grandad and drink your cocoa

For the amount your spending plus the sale price of a zed there are some tasty v8s out there, that are correct out of the box and easier to maintain.
