H5

because it's not the best of systems You think? I've had no problems with mine, and with a Volvo and Merc on the drive with climate too there's no noticeable difference. Each to their own obviously, just if I have a lazy option that keeps me the same temperature I just use that!

Cheers for the write up George, will definitely be up for the full day at some point soon......

If it's all on auto then it's probably the climate control just working away. And it turning off to bring the temperature back up when it's gone too far. In this heat recently it might be getting to 18 and cutting off and it warming up pretty quick again. I don't really understand why people with the auto option don't just set the temperature and everything to auto and let the car do the work???

Also depends if others drive the car and if electric adjustment helps it, I personally preferred the leather option. As for holding you, I've never had any problems with my leather not supporting me. IMO the seats in this car are top notch as a balance for comfort and support. As for the BOSE, I'm by no means a fan having competed at Ultra level for a while and know what a good car can sound like, but it's not bad for most listener's ears. If you set it up sensibly it'll sound OK. If you're going to change the standard set-up then it would be a waste of cash.

Depends on the type of client really doesn't it!! They're awesome cars for sheer drivability, nothing gets you closer to feeling what's actually happening, and with the roof off they're fine to get in and out. But the exhaust doesn't polish up as good as my Zed.....!

Cheers Steve, will seriously think about it. As for a mate driving one, do you really have any you could trust?!

To be fair the give away was how low the wing mirror was really. The zed is pretty low but that is limbo dancing low Try getting into the thing with the roof on when 6'+, it's a delightful experience!!

Ta muchly, will post the pics when they're finished. Been using good ol' Auto Glym Metal polish so far and it's pretty good. The Elise one came up pretty well pretty easily, even on the inside.

Better put the McLaren away then..... Would have to do two events as I really want to play in the Zed first.

Didn't they start checking the rest of the components, like the amps, wire and speaker itself?! There's quite a few bits for it to go through once the signal has left the head unit.......

Indeed, Sarnie, you are correct. Need to get them both out for a proper test at some point.......

Can I bring my little track toy for the time challenge then?!

All in good time...... There's still some stubborn bits left to finish and then all will be revealed.....

Finally got round to cleaning and starting the polishing effort yesterday and have spent most of today on the exhaust pipes! Here you go, and what's the car on the left.......??

Both in Marlow some time this morning (bout 10.30 - 11) One was an 04 with standard 18's on and anoth K** JMM on it's way into Marlow. I flashed, you waved.....

Binky Boodle has a lot to answer for!!

Could always see if they can do it on a weekend day to reduce the need for holiday time, plus finishing at 4 you can get a good start before most of the traffic. I'll give them a call later and let you know what they come back with......

It seems Carlimits is only in Essex. Could possibly try and do it for a Monday and drive down and get a travel tavern of some sort for a few quid? Just think of the drive back practising all you've learnt!!

Must've been something in the air yesterday then, I did exactly the same. Being ultra careful through the stupidly narrow ramps and just caught the offside rear wheel. Again, Chipsaway on the way me thinks. My badge stayed intact, but some goon at the bottom of the same ramp decided he wasn't going to stop as I got to the bottom and had to brake to stop, with obvious consequences, one scrapped bit of black plastic. With the cracked rear bumper and ding in the rear wheel arch, I'm doing pretty well this week! So me too, one slightly shabby Zed at the mo, not ideal. Which means an excuse for treating myself to new 19's, front splitter and once over from the body shop....!!

LoT? And where is this one, what sort of thing is it etc? Anything where there's nothing hard to hit and I can get used to the thing on the limit really! Hopefully Hanel can update on the chances of any discount and a mini review of the day and then I can look into it on behalf of those listed above?

Exactly the sort of thing I was looking for! Cheers steve_b From reading the thread the following are interested: - Steve_b Blacky Beggers H5 Hanel (already booked - can you let us know about any discount or similar you hear of? That'd be great) Anyone else? I've got a couple of mates who have recently bought TVR T350C and Celica GT4 so maybe we can get a reduction through numbers. After using the last of the tread on my 18's then there's no excuse for not getting those shiny new 19's is there.......?!

LOL - even more embarrassing considering mine!!
