It is a state but thats no excuse to let it get soooooooo filthy
If I turned up in a £100k car for a shoot and you turned up in that I'd leave. Presentation is key. You don't need a new car (well you do, but its not essential) per se but take pride in your ride
Don't buy from them. Their cars are low spec imports with what look like cheap rims and kit. You could get a similar car without the kit and rims and add them yourself for about £3k less than their cars.
Oh and
20 inch nitrogen filled tyres won't come down much if at all. The zed is technologically light years behind the GT-R. Its supercar performance and supercar maintainence costs.
Agreed, but most of that has got to be the nitrogen and specialist equipment in fitting the things. I suppose if you want to beat 911 Turbos you can't have it all at half price!
I think this nitrogen thing as been over blown, a local tyre outlet close to me as been giving this as an option for years for just a few quid extra.
But the GT-R's tyres are runflats

True but tyres for the G are approx £330 a corner so an extra inch bigger plus the nitrogen means that the £500 is about right really. 480 bhp + will mean some pretty rapid tyre wear e.g. 6000 miles for a set of rears....there is also no indication so far about pads and disc wear but I'd expect the GT-R to eat through those too.As you say, if you want to beat 911 Turbos you can't have it all for half price!
Absolutely. If you want supercar performance then you've got to shoulder the costs of running one.
Its a common theme on PH. People buy olders cars e.g a Ferrari 360, say for £40k and then whinge about the cost of parts and services. People forget that a £120k car will always need £120k car maintainence.

Funny because when my petrol light comes on i fill up with V Power and still the most cash i have ever put in is £68. I know it is a 80 litre tank but when the lights comes on i wonder how many more miles you can go ??
At least 100.
I did 70 miles on the ------------
Ah, in the comments! Not cheap then!
Nope.
I think a lot of people are going to be shocked at the cost of parts for the GT-R. Tyres are being quoted at £2,000 a set, disks and pads all round at £4,000.
Aftermarket stuff is no cheaper, exhausts are £2500+ if you look at Amuse and Mines stuff.....
It may be cheaper compared to the cars it can beat but maintaining it is not gonna be cheap.....
i've got an audi tt up for grabs, slightly modded, subtle. avus silver, red leather, coupe remapped to 265+bhp, quattro etc. on long journeys average 30+mpg. went to bristol-guildford-bristol, 300 miles and average 40mpg.
I think he likes roadsters
Hi,
You can get them on eBay.com. Search for "metra 350z" and then check Metra's website for the correct part number for your year of car.
I bought 1 in January and it fits great.
Hope this helps.
