Ebized

No it was not false actual event on a New York Highway but can't be ar$ed to dig out the link yet again but a search on here if anyone is desperate to know should find it.

Reminds me of my embarrasment the day I picked mine up - of course the 370 needed petrol so drove into the station next door and looked for the petrol flap release presuming it would be like the two 350's I had before - could I find it...... . Then in drove the salesman and I asked sheepishly where the release was hidden. At which point he pressed the flap - hey ho

Graham, can get buckets up there. IIRC this is the place that Colin got his http://www.fortaugustus.org/fort-augustus/enhanced/caledoniancanal.php Everyone gave the cars a quick wash before the drive out in '09 even though it was P'ing down That's the place (was selling their stock off then)........ that's us - well trained with the Welsh rain

You can share mine for a half a bottle of whisky glrnet More seriously, no problems at FA Darren - the accommodation will lay on a hose and buckets. And I found other places we stayed at were happy to help out. As both of you must have the seats well forward - plenty of shoe/boot room behind

Perhaps Pappa needs some company

Last minute post moved here: That's what I call a proper thread hi-jack!

New thread created - please do not start another offer on the back of somebody elses thread, rodgeevans

You can change your posts and the thread heading - the latter is limited in what can be added

Enough to get off their forecourt If it is empty and you want to fill up have a 100 notes ready

WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU

Careful, or you might end up on the same course as him

No, they are optional extras including the thick boot mat although there is a thin standard boot mat supplied. Having said that I believe most of the dealer demonstrators do have them - mine did

That is cool Shame it can't be used outside - great way to deal with the neighbours' cats

You can adjust the volume for your phone in the cars settings to suit you/your phone, when the mobile signal strength allows its use of course. Having the phone in sight helps - to not answer those calls you don't want to and identify contacts who have not been 'beamed' into the car's memory for screen display. Brodit mount in mine:

I tell you why (in our case) - because after 9 you are competing with the lane (isle) hogging mums (usually chatting with anyone and everyone they come across) and their out of control kids As well as their car door banging antics in the car park

My Honda Jazz owning wife just tried to break my screen Neither she nor I in our sixities drive in that fashion although we similarly get irritated by such drivers, of all ages and in a wide range of cars. When I drive the Jazz I tend to get to get the look as I overtake - bloody hell, didn't know those things could do that

As the Falkens have fairly soft side walls you might find raising the pressure above the 'standard' 35psi works better. I used to use about 37/38 in the 19" Falkens I had on the 350. Whether that suits 20" tyres I don't know as I guess the profile is lower so less sidewall. As being indicated above by others, experiment by gradually raising the pressures from 35 and trying on your favourite bit of road with a few demanding corners, which should reveal what suits

Even though you dad will do the service for free, if he wrote out an 'invoice' on his headed paper with the list/cost of parts used and noted at the bottom FOC - family member, I'm sure that would count for as much, if not more than a dealer/independent stamp, to a future discerning buyer.

Ken Block likes to do those, going backwards before the tyres finally bite for the forward momentum, but he's got two extra driven wheels to help

It is difficult to understand why a non GT is perceived as 'inferior' when as others have said the Bose gets replaced because it dosen't work well; cruise is rarely used and leather seats need to be looked after and we have seen so many look less than pristine after a few years as they don't wear so well as the cloth seats, unless really looked after. I suspect it is only the absence of the leather seats that is off-putting to those in the trade or potential purchasers who believe that is a must have. If you buy a non-GT car at a good price but have an eye on a future sale, watch for leather seats being offered for sale - they do come up from time to time on here, as well as from breakers. For what you would have to pay, some way down the line, you could can make a good saving now

Traders will have their fans and complainants. In the worse cases it has led to traders being excluded from here. At the end of the day the size of 'appreciation threads' speak for themselves. The team receives many messages from the 'silent majority' about excellent, good, not so good, to downright poor service, which generally reflects postings on here by members. When something has gone wrong we try to sort it out behind the scenes as experience has shown there is usually a good reason which does not need to get blown out of proportion. It should not come as a surprise then that when a trader who has been found to provide an excellent service by a large number of members up and down the country is then critisized by those known to support a competitor, they will defend their position. As I have come to see over many years on here, and given we are a national and international forum, unfortunately the language used often can be misunderstood, or perceived as being rude. ZMANALEX has single-handed probably kept more members cars on here going with spares and advice than all the other traders put together. And I understand we are not the only place he serves. No doubt his reputation is what irks some but at the end of the day that is what the vast majority of members rely on - recommendation, and why they vote for him with their wallets.

The Bullit GT Mustang - still one of the greatest chases with a soundtrack second to none

Quite impressed with the paint match - not perfect, but I now have no nasty chips showing
