On one job we had a women nice as pie to our faces, asking how it was coming along and saying it was looking good only to find out she had written twenty seven letters of complaint!!! The wonderful thing now is that you can view all their letters online if it is a planning application. To be honest, from my experience letters of complaint from neighbours carry very little weight with planners so don't worry. Just keep up a dialogue with Planning, they are normally quite helpful. They need all the fees they can get these days! But if the neighbours complain to the Council as there is no planning application they have a duty to keep such complaints confidential. And I do find (and know from many a previous experience) that complainants will often involve Councillors and sometimes MPs and whilst a dialogue with the Planners is normally desirable don't assume a friendly politeness means a planning permission is on the cards. First thing is to establish with householder extensions and outbuildings etc, is to see if it can be built without planning permission - always the best option if possible and hence the link in my previous post.

This might help the understanding: http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/permis ... buildings/ Click on the mini-guide for visual guidance. It is important not to get confused between what needs permission under Building Regulations and what needs Town Planning permission, they are two quite seperate forms of legislative control. Planning officers and Building Control officers rarely share information (even though they may work in the same offices) and often for the layperson it is not always clear which section they dealing with! If planning permission is required that is where the greatest difficulty lies as the decisons are subjectively based. Under Building Regulations you could theoretically build an office block in your garden as long as it complies with building standards set by the Regulations. Don't believe a word what neighbours might say. In these cases they will often say one thing to your face and another to the Council.

Until you have posted 5 quality posts, pm mesages are disabled (problems with spammers, rather than genuine members). I am sure one or more of the the traders will be along soon to help you

I know a sale has been on the cards for a while and like others say it is a sad day you have have come to the conclusion it is has to go and guted for both you and Sam who we know has put many hours into the carefully chosen mods and looking after the car and I suspect it must have been very difficult taking those excellent pics. Anyone out there who seriously wants one of THE best GT4's around will not be disappointed - the car is a real credit to Linda and Sam. And Sam, my promise about the 370 still stands when I am in your neck of the woods (and you are not at Uni)

Pms available after you have made 5 quality posts. I'll pm Paul for you

Done, and you ahve a pm

That's where I got mine for the 370 as it dosen't have one but I wanted to be different

Seeing the thread heading, I thought you were off to a "2 Jags" BBQ

Welcome to the forum Darren-B from Kent on here has the ZED/MX5 combo, although the Maz is s/c, and he uses both on track so you are in good company.

Welcome to the forum. Given the garage have readily agreed to the clutch (and bearing?) change indicates they felt something was not right and with 40k miles done, probably a wise move anyway although many a ZED has done far more miles than that without issues. Make sure you drive it before taking it away to be sure the problem is resolved - usually much less hassle than going back afterwards

Best to get back in the driver's seat then

Thread locked in that case

Experience is the point I was making and we know that even gaining that experience on track can lead to brushes with the barriers as the limits are explored

I'm just off to buy some Kleenex shares as the wannabe Stigs find the limits of their ability More seriously, for anyone who has only recently taken on a 300bhp RWD for the first time and not had track experience the ZED can bite you even with the traction aids on if you over indulge with the loud peddle

Saw this today - including mirrored windows and a rear spolier

You will be able to pm after 5 quality posts and your posts have to be first be approved before they appear as us mods are not on here 24/7 that may take a little while to happen I am pming kta for you, so he sees your post asap.

Pimm normally has these in stock memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=2958 drop him a pm

Just a pity that they have not all enjoyed a dry track http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E08NRNU7KPQ As my other 'alf reminded me, he showed his potential some while back when racing with schui at the indoors race of champions a few years back and beating established stars so we should not be surprised

+1 a disappointing race really - best viewing for me was the Top Gear later and you have to hand it to Vettel now he has shown is the quickest GP driver in a reasonably priced car where in theroy they should all be on a level playing field...err I mean track.

I didn't do anything in the end until the next time though

It's like having overgrown toe nails I can smell them from here! Reminds me or a certain tennis player's comment: "MAN......YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS" But some great pics guys

Do you know what the update specs actually include - i.e. do/will they have speed camera locations? I presume the ability to search by post codes for those with pre-connect premium sat navs, remains unavailable? Thanks

I bet the syncro rev is on full time now and you are seeing your mpg go down But these are not in short supply, eh It is amazing how much a decent exhaust system on a 370 transforms the car. Far more so than in the case of the 350's when a good aftermarket exhaust is added in place of a stock 350 exhaust because at least the UK OEM system is pretty good to start with.
