You had a "taste holiday" from 1965 - 2007!

Mick - MG Montego - hang your head in shame, man! As for me: 1. 1989 Red Honda Civic 1.4 GL 2. 1991 White Mitsubishi Colt 1.6 GLXi 3. 1997 Poseidon Blue Citroen Saxo 1.6 VTR 4. 2000 Black Ford Puma 1.7 5. 2002 Silver Toyota Celica 1.8 VVTi 6. 2003 Black Mini Cooper S 7. 2005 Blade Nissan 350Z There was something great about all of them but the first and last have been the most special.

Mmmm. Nice motor, Kev.

Good luck, Andy! We're all rooting for you!

Elise?

Nice one Tim!

C'mon guys! You'll kick yourselves if you don't!

Ok £70. Its 208 miles from york to london. A tank and a bit. Just think of the lack of stress. If the meeting was a one off and it was important to me or my job I'd drive rather than go through that stress. I'm not sure driving through London during the day has ever been associated with a "lack of stress"!

Got to agree the interior is pretty appalling.

I think looking for the "point" of anything is futile where this car is concerned.

I would probably go for the Lotus as they're rare as hen's teeth. They do look better in the flesh but where the top of the window meets the roof is still decidedly iffy. I'd prefer an Elise S - from what I've heard the Europa isn't really that much more civilised compared to "proper" cars like the BMW and Porsche. Elise looks sexy as f**k too! Agree with Ricky on the Z4M though. M-cars aren't fitted with runflats though, Ricky.

Have to agree that this is a great promotional vehicle for a small business. Even if they're not to everyone's taste I think its great that this sort of wacky vehicle exists. Have Nissan done anything else since this and the Figaro in the early nineties?

Marshall's in Cambridge have had this... MARKETING PRODUCT BULLETIN 18 / 10 / 2007 PRODUCT BULLETIN MPB 07 75 350Z COUPE & ROADSTER COLOUR CHANGES NEW COLOURS We are delighted to inform you that with immediate effect we have two new colours in the 350Z colour pallet: Rosso Red (A41) and Pikes Peak White (QX1). Rosso Red is solid whilst Pikes Peak White is a metallic paint. DELETED COLOURS These two new colours will replace Chilli Pepper (AX6) and Temper Orange (A53). REMAINING STOCK Due to careful planning, there should be enough stock of Temper Orange to last us at least until the end of the year, but build to order requests can no longer be satisfied. Although Chilli Pepper has always been build to order we do have two units of non-GT remaining in free stock, however we can no longer supply this colour as build to order. ORDERING The new colour codes have been opened for ordering today, Thursday 18th October 2007.

Welcome over this side, fella!

Tend to agree with Sinbad - Zed is a proper sports car with bags of style unlike the Beemer but can be a GT when you're not in the mood un like the Lotus. I see a guy in an S1 Exige most mornings on my daily commute - as I sat with my arse being gently warmed by the heated seats this morning I wouldn't have swapped with him for the world! Oh and welcome aboard!

That's what you've got Saw a grey one, looks like a TT at first glance...still though My 'audi' has a bull on the badge though ...and loads of bull from the driver!

This post has turned into Phil v USA! Seriously though, there is plenty of info to support the view that Phil adds value to what he is selling with his experience and general approach, however, my experience of other high profile UK suppliers was far less positive - high prices, poor service and a surprising lack of knowledge.

Split from the exhaust thread as going OT.

Hi Yatik - welcome aboard!

Couldn't agree more, Mike. Not my area and you wouldn't ask your heart surgeon about your brain tumor....

Watched the show last night and I've not seen presenting like that since Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood did the Brits (for those old enough to remember ). I normally love Phil and Kirsty but why on earth did the show have to be live? PS I don't live in Knowsley....

My comments are in the other thread. Great car!

+1 If the prices are right, with your rep as being a top guy to deal with, I can see you being highly successful, Phil.

Good stuff. Saw someone fleeced 4 hours labour by their stealer to do this! Yeah that was me! Stealer was doing a free P3 service as their salesman was rubbish when I got my car. Stealer principal did me a deal to do my next service free. So when they called to book it in I said could they do the pads and discs if I supply and thought it would be all inc. Ohhh how I was wrong! They charged me £300 for the pleasure! Still I will be calling the dealer principal once again after reading this thread! I wont be going back there in a hurry Sorry Chris, didn't want to sound unsympathetic, just couldn't remember where I'd seen it!

Be patient, he's in hospital at the moment.
