Jacko

It will be gone very soon

Good! Tell me when mate, then I can ban ya!

Seriously, glad you got a sale and soooo jealous. If I had the money then a Lambo Gallardo would be no 1 on my list too, in the same colour..... ORANGE!

So don't come on here ALL the time telling us about it or I will get you banned!

Looks stunning mate.

 

Glad you sold your Zed too, only just found out!

 

Good luck, im excited for you........

So have you actually sold it Sarnie?? Has it gone today?

I have never used a radar detector, haven't driven in the states too much though. My dad hasn't either and he's driven there a lot!

 

Just enjoy the views take it easy in the corners if you have a yank tank. Remember if you get a car with a similar capacity to a zed it'll have about 175 bhp!

 

Unless you have booked something a little special???

Yeah well we going to start with a mustang convertible...... change up to a Corvette convertible and also take out the Shelby Mustang......

Could get a zed roadster, but thought as in the states, may as well drive some big gas guzzlers!

All in the interest of science you know

One for the near future...... cars that communicate to each other over wi-fi.....

His lovely black Gt4 with Nismo V2 front end back up for sale. Advert 2 days old!

I love your sense of humour.... same size as for here I would think... I was thinking along the Aurthur Daly theme, will wind some people up on the Jag Forums

Awwww we love you really mate

Looks mean and moody! And will go well in a straight line!

"0-60 in 5 Seconds and 150+MPH"

But be a little bit "interesting" on the corners and at the petrol station

Drove right up the M66 near my house.....

At least the guy got his new car back! (and a tracker made a difference for a change!)

Is this what Stew had wrong with his?

Its not a do luck

 

There's lots of things it's not Captain Obvious!

I just said that so people dont write it up as its similar

Yeah I know....

But the Do-Luck kit ain't as "square jawed" and more of a swoopy front lip.....

It looks like the sort they use on the wide bodied Japan Zed racers to me (looks wise, not saying it actually is!)

Its not a do luck

There's lots of things it's not Captain Obvious!

all paint codes are on the chassis plate....!!

 

and thats under the bonnet lol

 

& thats on the front of the car

And thats in front of your house

Jacko I just read your first sentence and thought there was something wrong with my eyesight

 

I then read on and calmed down

Ah sorry to scare ya!

As for Nissan finance, in my experience always get much better rates through someone like Black Horse etc, than dealer finance. Even when I bought an Audi, they used to Black horse but I got much better deal direct!

In my experience, most of the time the dealer finance can't compare......

Ross can you do me one with my S type on please

You want that in black and white sir?

Here are some themes Ross:

Nice flat cap?

Whippet?

Caravan?

Walking stick?

Cardigan?

Jacko .... number 3

Ross, thats the one!

Cheers mate, top work!

Thanks guys,......

Do I need to be worried about getting hold of a radar detector?

I take it then that you are fine using them over there? Surely by the time they go mad anyway then you would be caught??

Don't suppose the rental companies rent them out? Or do I have to just take it very easy anywhere but out in the sticks?

I did speak multiple times with TDi North guy (been so long I've forgotten his name!) who seemed ok with it but has never managed to fit me in. /quote]

 

It's Paul

nice photos indeed!

 

HUD is something I am quite interested in doing - linking it to my car PC and using a mirrored lcd character display or something, anyone have more info on the HUD setup on this car?

Well hopefully if Adam convinces Mike to join, then you'll be able to ask him directly!

Either that or Adam may already know

Guys,

I know Rich (Choptop) mentioned this to me, but just want confirmation as to whether I need to get an international driving licence for my trip in August driving around the above two states?

Do I need one?

What benefits does it give?

How do I get one?

How long does it take?

Any further info?

Thanks in advance

 

bring your wallet, I think Jonathan paid £250 for his valet and they wouldnt touch the engine compartment at that... to be honest not many valeters/ detailers will hit the engine compartment

Hold on, I thought you did it?

I'm not paying anyone when you will do it for free apart from the brews?

why, you thinking about it digsy?

They look a good colour match at the moment? Do you want more contrast??

If so, then needs to be a really dark grey I think, guess thats what you mean by Anthracite etc.....

Doesn't powdercoating make a really tough coating anyway...... thought the way that it electrostatically bonds to the underlying metal means that it would be tough!

(although not tough enough to stand up to a good kerbing! )

its not the best picture of the switch bit - sorry!

 

anyway I think it looks reasonable - but the center console is definately the blingiest!

Pingu, sure it does mate, wasn't meaning the say it doesn't look good....

It might be the way that the light falls on that area. Just that the centre is defo the bit that looks the most natural!

What did you do?

 

Steam clean it??

 

Noooooooo no steam cleaning for me

 

Trade secrets

ok, I'll bring mine over some time.....

I'll make the brews and watch you sort it!
