Sure did .. he jumped out way to early... I did the stop then just coasted up to him I think he'd had a bad experience previously and didnt fancy jumping out to late

They must have been trained to do this Left me thinking should I ride up to the guy and stop or should I stop here? Took the test with a mate and for the other 3/4 of the circuit we were mucking about popping wheelies and riding on the pavement. Yep, those were the days

Took a long hard look at one ending 3502 a while back for obvious reasons. Initials + Z + 350Z would look

yeah, but why "Dave"

1-Job Change on the cards... which could mean 100miles commute every day for the next 6-8 months...

Sorry to hear this.

My commute is 110 miles a day and I still use the Zed on the basis that it is reasonable-ish on fuel and servicing costs are not too bad. I plan to change it every 2 years and the 40k mileage on the first one didn't hurt the resale too badly. Sell it and you might just end up regretting it. Somehow sitting in traffic in the Zed is not so bad when I consider what else I could be driving

...that smarmy lawyer who gets the football players off on technicalities

Cracking job, so thanks again Ross

Holy that's quick.

Is it me or was he short-shifting a hell of a lot.

Really want one now

I was staying in the Stamford Raffles a few weeks back and it overlooks part of the course. One things for sure, the Singapore government will make it spectacular. We're now trying to sort out a meeting for that weekend in SIN

Fuel pump? It is quite noisy and there's limited sound deadening. Lift the boot carpet, remove the cover and spare and see if it gets lounder

Am I the only one to think that the centre part of the dash looks like it comes from an 80s pickup truck? I like the VDU for the usual boost, lateral G, etc, etc but the black plastic below it with the heater dials looks

Small price to pay for 450bhp and 3.5s to 60 I guess???

I think it's a good thing if you're a TO owner that they've stopped doing it.

+1 (obviously )

Loved my GM '55 too. Dealer now has it up for sale at £19,995

Yep, pretty common on the earlier models. My '55 did regularly, but I was always told nothing was wrong.

I wonder if we get first test drive too?

Perhaps it matters which boxes you tick for favourite cars and how much money you have to spend

My local dealer will probably get one just in time for the London Olympics

£5000

This is taking the p*ss. Mine cost £180 but it was back in 1981 when the impending "no pedals but 30mph" law was coming in.

So, who else got a matt black envelope through the door today from Nissan teasing ahead of the Japan launch on Wednesday for the GT-R??? Some very nice Nurburgring pics and a website but no pics of the car.

Don't tell me that Nissan's marketing machine has actually got off its a*se for this one

Down in Cornwall at the weekend and the Audi dealer just outside Truro (?) had two in the showroom. I'm assuming they are awaiting PDI as they're supposed to be on massive back order???

First was a Garelli Tiger Cross when I was sixteen though

Ahh, the days of unrestricted mopeds. The Garelli was one of the best, but pretty fragile. My fizzie with a 65cc kit, some not so subtle porting and a K&N bodged on was good for over 55mph on the flat and 65mph downhill

I'm still tempted to do a James Whitham and buy a 72-73 yellow restored minter just for the hell of it.

Hmm, trying to understand if this is good or bad for resale value

This hurt my head remembering this lot.

the letters are carbon fibre

Think this is legal. Certainly came up in the legal options on the plate I ordered for mine.

On a related note I think that the Z would look good with a number plate sticker on the front instead of the horrible black mount. Anybody know if this is legal now???

Best get an after market sunroof

Actually it isn't that wide a car - narrower than the other halfs Focus if the spec sheet is to be believed. Long doors will be your biggest problem.
