  1. Good tips there.
  2. Have you factored in the running costs/parts for a 911 of that age? Likely to be very different from a warrantied Zed.

    Would look good with your Time Attacks.

  5. I've had my door resprayed where it was keyed. I've noticed that it now lacks the depth of the surrounding paintwork. Is this likely to be just a shoddy job or will some judicious detailing get it to look the same? Any thoughts?

    What do people think if this? http://my350z.com/forum/showthread.php? ... ost4302603 I quite like it......
  7. Beautiful as they are, RAYS wheels (I don't mean the OEM variety) can be hard work, particularly on our roads in our climate. This thread from the US written by someone who should know could save a lot of heartache and pennies in the long run. http://my350z.com/forum/showthread.php?t=293892

    New Jag!

    Let the debate begin: http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/first_offi ... 963&page=1 I'll reserve final judgment until I see it in the flesh but I'm a bit disappointed. Take away the details and it looks almost Lexus-like. I supect Jag couldn't win whatever they did but at least more ham-fisted retro has been avoided.
  10. I don't want to be driven out of a house and a city that I love by this scum but what do you get if you stand and fight? Shot? Stabbed? Even if they don't attack you right away, a homeowner who kicks up a fuss makes themselves a target. Its not worth confronting them mate. Mrs Sarnie is under strict instructions to never open our door no matter what is going on out there. If some one was trying to break into my car I'd shout out the window at them and call the police. I've heard too many horror stories from my Mrs about people getting stabbed to death for car keys. Interestingly I spent £1100 on a reinforced front door that is near impossible to break into. I'm yet to buy anything security wise for my car. This is purely down to me wanting to protect me and mrs sarnie rather than the car itself. The car is just (an expensive) piece of metal and will never be more important to me than my family's safety Wise words, mate.
  11. There's always one!
  12. How did you get on?
  13. No word yet from the police on this one. I'll let you know when/if I hear anything. As for kids, of course they are not all bad. However, there are a huge number in this country with no respect for anything or anyone. To me this has to be related to how they are brought up - both schools and parents. Kids are too aware these days that teachers and parents are powerless to impose any meaningful discipline upon them. In a Utopian society we would not need to use any sort of physical punishment to control children but unfortunately we live in the real world and the proof of this liberal approach to parenting and education is there for all of us to see. I would stress that I don't support knocking the living hell out of kids and there is a line which mustn't be crossed but things have gone too far the other way. As someone has said, these anti-social louts go on to have their own kids to whom they pay no attention whatsoever and the problem just gets worse. I don't want to be driven out of a house and a city that I love by this scum but what do you get if you stand and fight? Shot? Stabbed? Even if they don't attack you right away, a homeowner who kicks up a fuss makes themselves a target. We can't always be there to protect our property and the police don't have the resources to do it for us. Surprising as it may be, I actually live in one of the most desirable areas in the Liverpool suburbs so if I need to move then it means that there is nowhere safe to live in the city anymore and I don't believe that the other big cities are any better. I better stop now as I'm just winding myself up!
  14. Only been there 18 months....
  15. I don't recall anyone complaining of steering problems before soi don't think its a known issue. Good luck with the dealer.
  16. Had a great weekend and just getting back to our house last night after watching Bourne, when I spot loads of folk milling around outside my house, some in dressing gowns. As we get nearer I can see the Micra has a smashed front screen. Round the corner, four of my neighbours have some fat scally kid pinned against my side wall shouting obscenities. Apparently, a gang of 20 scrotes decided it would be a great wheeze to walk the length of our road over the line of parked cars! There are 4 or 5 cars damaged and I reckon we're quite lucky as I'd rather havbe a smashed screen than some of the panel damage to bonnets I saw. The police arrested fat-boy who obviously couldn't run as fast as the others and say they're going to take some statements but as no one saw him actually do anything and he's unlikely to grass on his mates I can't see anything coming of it. Suppose they may arrest the neighbours for grabbing the kid........ Very p1ssed off!!!

  20. yeap a big snail you know there is a lot of room in front of a S2K so he had to find something to fill the empty place Have you driven it? What's it like? I would fancy an S2K if it had some torque!
  21. Fair point!
  22. Moved ( ) and locked now problem solved.
  23. I've seen some TVRs (Sagaris and T350C) in a rich purple colour and they look the mutts nutts. Should work with a modded Zed.

    Its normally a Sunday meet but those who have travelled a bit usually meet up in Chester for drinks/food on the Saturday night. Quite a few bring their significant others - I will undoubtedly have my "speed limiter" with me!
  25. Hi Pudding, welcome aboard! I'm sorry to see your first post is a problem. I can't help but I'm sure someone who can will be along shortly.
