  1. I'd hope so!! being were this close to the 370z!!! Wondering maybe if it would of been worth holding out for it........ Not if you want a good looking Zed and £8-10k off it isn't.
  2. They're the same wheels Val had/has on his Zed.
  3. Yes, you can get bolt on type hubcentric spacers but Eibach also do some where you have to drill out your old studs and fit new longer ones - be careful with the codes. Personally, I'd stick with 15mm max all round possibly 10mm. You will get rubbing if you drop on 25mm.
  4. Merry Christmas one and all.
  5. I reckon that's Finnish. And Babelfish won't do Finnish!
  6. Ah, a fine wheel!
  7. Me too on the delivery... top service chaps +2 Good work in the face of adversity, guys.

    Outside done....

    as said its painted, kev from envy has a cf roof cf roof overlay on Envy's car AFAIK
  9. He's not in the UK but Adam from Z1 is trusted trader on this site and will no doubt do you a good deal. Vortech's are few and far between in the UK and most UK sellers are likely to have little real-world experience of the product.
  10. Bump. Lets keep this at the top.
  11. One more thing, lease compnaies will usually pay the road tax - with PCPs you pay. I've just received a £400 tax disc from my old leasing company for a car I no longer have!
  12. On a PCP the general idea is that the final lump sum (guaranteed minimum future value) should be less than true value so that if you sell on immediately you have another deposit to take out a new PCP. Of course, in a market like this most cars have depreciated far more than they were expected to and the reality for those coming to the end of 2 or 3 year deals is that their cars are worth less than the GMFV. The beauty of a PCP is that rather than make the payment you can just hand the vehicle back and walk away. However, as Nathan rightly says, the PCP payments will be likely to have been more than those for regular contract hire (a lease) and at the end of the deal you are in the same situation - no car, no deposit. Lease purchase is similar to a PCP except the final payment is not a guaranteed value and you could be left with a car worth less than you owe.
  13. How good the contract hire rates are really varies model to model. Two cars in the same price rang can be £100s different in their monthly rates. For example, look at this £43k car... http://www.ama-southeast.co.uk/process. ... l&id=25626 The problem you've hit on Liam is that any car that doesn't come loaded needs speccing and when I enquired about that with the company that leases to my business partner they simply took the price of the option (sat nav, metallic paint etc) and divided it by however many months there were in the lease - effectively you're buying the options but have to give them up at the end of the term. This wasn't a problem for me on the Zed as there aren't many options and they threw in the paint. So the moral is, there are leasing bargains to be had but you need to hunt around and not be too picky on model and choose something which is well specced as standard. As you might imagine, run out models can be great value - just look at the R32s available at £260 a month! Its worth mentioning too that for sole traders/partnerships contract hire is the most tax beneficial option and you can claim back half the VAT on the payments. Oh and a PCP has the option of purchasing the car outright at the end of the deal, contract hire doesn't.
  14. A PCP isn't leasing.
  15. An optimistic view to say the least.
  16. I think what they needed to improve upon was the driveability at that power level. As touched upon above the Evo VIII FQ400 was so laggy it was ridiculous.
  17. Moorlands are okay. By the way the white Zed is sold just looked, the one i was looking at is sold as well. gone in a flash. i'm finding it so hard to get hold of one. Just goes to show that at the right price anything will sell, even in this market. OK, Alex - who got my white Zed then? Trust me, you really do not want to know, and they got a further discount as well Shy boys don't get any sweeties you know If your not fast you are last Oh! and it was not me I'm far too busy earning the money to pay for the toys to go mooching round Basingstoke. Go on, spill!

  19. 9k on EVO X's but possibly not this one...
  20. Hi and welcome, David.

  22. Thread tidied. As Chris rightly said (before I deleted him ) please remember the reasons behind this thread and show some respect before posting up. The best way to contact Andrew is by PM. If he hasn't posted yet this morning it is because he has more pressing things to do, which I hope we can all understand.
  23. Moved.
  24. The stripes look spot on, Kev.
