  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. 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! 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.

  7. 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 ------------
  8. 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.....
  9. It say £28k within the attached thread......

    Would be better if you couldn't see the people in the reflection.....
  11. Good to see this for sale thread entirely on topic
  12. Just googled it. Looks like it was designed by a 4 year old
  13. When you live in a place like Birmingham it happens on your doorstep all the time. Makes you paranoid and very cycnical
  14. Residuals seem to be great at the moment, there's only 15 soft tops on autotrader across the whole country.
  15. 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
  16. 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. Austin http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Metra-99-7602-0 ... 286.c0.m14
