Where's the 'Jay & Lauren' windscreen sticker!?

From what I have seen and heard, the Performance Friction ones are even better on dust. As for the colouring, that is just where water is splashing on the disks when it is raining and the car isn't being used. You probably never saw it on the MG as the brakes discs weren't big enough to see it!!

Nah, she's still camped in the lay-by opposite your house. It was nice and sunny thanks, and even managed to try my hand at wake boarding off the back of quite a big boat. Apparently the snakes in the water don't bite AND swim, so that was fine too.... And if you need to go clothes shopping, just bail out to Orlando for a week and have a holiday and shopping for the same price in the UK. I saved a fortune on stuff out there!

Recycling my lines will not add to your credibility, as good as they are. The audacity!! But anyway, she said it was her brother that told her about it, so you've go the wrong one - again. I am in Woking, to keep on topic!

I wasn't proposing a stripped out GT-R aka Lotus, just some weight saving materials to bring the enormous weight down. Why do modern cars weigh so much anyway. I realise airbags, crumple zones all add weight, but whay don't manufacturers counteract this with light weight materials, probably cost. Just as a comparison, and yes I've said this before, my Cossie weighs 1315kg. As a car it has 4 seats, is as big as a GT-R but the GT-R weighs 32% more than the Cossie , that's massive. I wouldn't compare a Lotus to a GT-R as they are totally different cars, but if you did the figure would be more like 50%+. I know you weren't mate, just illustrating the different ethos at the respective manufacturers. As for weight, it will be creature comforts. Leather weighs a lot more than cloth. Heated seats add cabling and heating elements. Airbag systems weigh a lot, as do extra fog lights, aircon units and onboard computers. The Cossie probably makes a very different sound when shutting the door to a Focus, as the engineering has moved on to provide what they perceive the mass market wants. Then you have idiots like BMW try and turn a 3 series into a 'lightweight' version by still trimming things in leather but putting carbon fibre roofs on cars. Also, the cars themselves are getting bigger. A Focus today next to the Cossie would be quite a shock - I know, the lad next to me has a Sierra and even a Mk1 Focus isn't far off. The GTR would dwarf it! I guess it is all just development.

I hate being driven generally, unless I am sleeping or drunk! For £100 a month you can see the benefit, but as you say it is a time for you in the Zed on your own......

What tyres and oil brand does it have to have as well mate?? It's a bit specific! I would suggest Autotrader as a starting point.....

You mean when they wipe off the tango tan and show you their shaving rash? why you have to go spoil it. At least it better than your dream that you told me where you went to thailand the lady tied you up stripped you down then whispered in your ear that she just had the op Yep, the one on the left is my missus! And what a boob job it was!!

+1!! You don't NEED front foglights, unless you are desparate to try and make a car that is rubbish look good, by blinding other people! Welcome to the site.

Having an Elise and a Zed on the drive, I have to say comparing a Lotus of any sorts to a Nissan is a step too far IMO. One does not make a true GT car and one does not make flyweight track weapons. And they both have an entirely different approach to cars - one uses a lack of weight and sacrifices comfort, the other uses the latest technology at the 'apparent' cost of weight. If you want to strip the weight and technology out of a GTR, I reckon you're left with not much than an American muscle car. All brawn, no brains. I love both cars on the drive (although the Lotus is being put up for sale this weekend) but you just cannot compare them IMO. Marc, shall we hit the Lotus stand next year?!

Martin behave!!

And doesn't look as good, and will spend a lot of time sat waiting at junctions...

Looks great.

No, turn the aircon on.

Have you taken it for a short drive? It can take some time to settle down, and I had to reset mine 3 times before it settled. Ah, final check, have you got the aircon on? With it off, Zeds can idle quite lumpy.

Spoilsport!! Panda 4x4 then! Seat Leon TDi then if it must be more practical!?

Have you securely fitted the MAF sensor into the pipe on the Popcharger, and made sure it is connected properly? That is the last thing I can think of other than what has been listed....

Kleenex Airways go to Sweden. Imagine those as trolley dollies!

200SX then.

Oh the embarrasment!

I remember getting insurance quotes for those a few years ago. They were hideously expensive then too. Lots of bargain cars out there at the moment. Try and root out a Fiesta RS Turbo!

1) Make sure you haven't trapped the oil filler cap gasket in the plenum 2) Do the ECU reset 3) Do the throttle position sensor reset Does that work?
