    They are the last people I'd buy anthing from. Why? Went to test drive a Gallardo there. Car was in shite condition and over priced. Tried to blag me that all G's are in similar condition. Tried to tell me that it was still covered by Lamborghini's warranty, which it wasn't. The worst sales people in the world. You know the ones that assume your going to buy the car e.g filling out the order forms before you've even said your interested. Had no knowledge of the car itself e.g clutch or service history. I asked him how much wear the clutch had, he said he had no idea and then tried a safe guess of 50% I got out of the car after test driving it and the guy said smugly: Amazing huh? Soooo, when will you be picking her up? Err, never. He then bombarded me with calles for 3 weeks. Also, an Evo owner was having his car serviced there. It got stolen overnight whilst it was there. Also, they recently had 4 cars stolen, including a Gallardo. Not a company I would like to deal with or leave my pride and joy with.
  2. Speaking of the Lambo, where's our post-a-holic?! Gone MIA? Always here

  4. It really doesn't i know when i look back and add up that ive spent £15k on the car then i could have stuck probably 3 super chargers on it but i am at the stage now that another 5K would be over stepping the mark Good man but don't let the wannabes astray i have no clue what that means me neither, Dorians on the
  5. I do love free speech thanks for your post. You still have time to book your plot at JAE. To be fair guys, I don't know the ins and outs either but smoky said before that it was a **REMOVED** committee decision. I guess the commitee has spoken. I think Smoky has gone to some effort to try to 'unite' the clubs at enthusiastic owner level. As has Rob (H5) and I think (personally) it's very unfair to to be hostile to the people involved. Just so you all know. The only decision made was to lave this in my hands. As the **REMOVED** plot is payed for out of the clubs membership fees, it was down to me to keep our members happy. The £2 charge was for car and tent space, and the no banner bit was also down to me. So you can rant at me for that, if you feel the need. I didn't do this to get more cars, it's not the way I am. It was just an offer as the turnout for this is low on both sites and you didn't have a plot booked. I have had some very good meets with Z owners on both sites. Brands was one and I hope we can have more. I'm happy to answer any questions or just let it rest. Smoky... Ok, so why no www.350z-uk.com banners? I understand the £2 charge to appease the fee paying members but no 350z-uk banners is purely to prevent an affiliation of the two sites. The gripes between the sites are sooooooooooo old, but still perpetuated by some, and this is a perfect example imo.

    I seen a white one today with 1000 km's for 7,800,000 Yen which is approx £36k. Add: £1500 shipping +10% import duty +17.5% VAT =£48,468 Plus model reports and SVA stuff of about £2500 plus importers fee's and other minor stuff and your looking at £53k give or take. Middlehurst are quoting October 2010 for a uk car so importing is attractive.
  10. I know it can be bettered with aftermarket exhausts, but I think as standard it still sounds damn sexy! +2 Really surprised at that comment. It is crap after you've had an aftermarket zorst
  11. Cheap interior on the MY03 Standard rims are vile Its made by Nissan Anorexic paint Too heavy Interior and boot rattles Spastic dealers Apart from that, great car
  12. Bigphil does the sillicon wipers for £55 for a front and back set and they are ace
  13. The last one on that clip is Zedrush
  14. I am afraid of asking them in case they get suspicious... thinking of contacting powerchips first..i got a quote for my maserati and they were adamant that the dealer cant trace their program...will keep you informed! Program? Are you talking about getting the zed remapped or adding FI? from what they said about the maser i understood remapping...but u v got to contact them for the zeds... i mailed them 9months ago and the quote was £1400+vat and they said they needed a whole morning... "The upgrade is undetectable by Maserati service and diagnostic equipment. The car will drive smoother than the standard car with improved throttle response. The torque curve will mirror the standard cars curve but hold up better after 5000 rpm." DMS automotive Copy/Paste from their email Won't work on a zed without a replacement/piggyback ecu as far as I know. For small gains (20 bhp) you'll need a zorst, high flo cats, CAI, plenum plus remap/ new ecu. For gains of 100 bhp+ you'll need forced induction and at least £10k

  16. All uk cars have heated wing mirrors, JDM's may do too according to the spec. Turning the knob will direct the air to the front windscreen. Pushing the button will turn on the heating elements attached to the front windscreen similar to what you have on the rear. Only JDM's have heated front windscreens
  17. It's not a shared car park, I'm sharing a 5 bedroom house with some friends and it's big enough for about 10 cars so hopefully there should be plenty of space. There is also a little gap down the side of the house right next to by bedroom window on the ground floor, so I can park it down there next to nobody! Looking forward to being able to get a good nights sleep. Are you a student?
  18. I'm sure the one on the heater knob is for the REAR windscreen heater and wing mirrors
  19. Nope - mine retracts and it is a base model JDM. Not quite the same though
  20. Yep bought it when it was about 6 weeks old, loved it
