Don't have many at the moment, crappy weather!!

That looks about right, although I had 2x 350z's and 2x M3's

Love it!!

The owners name isn't Sean it?

Nice! Does this mean my fees are going up??

Thanks for the pointers guys!

The 21" wheels are not on a Zed...............read his post

I liked Val I loved how he had to get an actual mortgage to pay for a set of wheels..............wonder how many years he's got left :lol: :lol:

lol What. A. Tool.

I miss Val

Nice!

Wow, I did not know that. Every days a school day

So is it the lip on them or the thickness? Or is the lips only created as the pads wear away at the disks causing them to get thinner creating the outer lip???

Ok, slightly embarrassing question given all the cars I've had over the years!! So, how exactly do you tell when the disks are worn?? Porsche are telling me that I need new front disks and pads as they are "95%" worn.............and want £980 to supply and fit them. I've read of numerous other people getting well over 70k out of theirs but my car has barely done half that mileage!! I can see that the pads are probably shot but the disks as well? Visually they look fine to me but I don't know what they would look like when they are shot!?!?

No bank should need any notice whatsoever to withdraw £7,000.......................

Why not just get the cash out of your bank??????????????

Volks too??? #PWC

Do you get the stowaway in the drivers seat too?

I agree. Pisses me off. I press the button as I walk away. 2 seconds later I can't remember if I actually locked it or not. I press the button again. Now I don't know if I have just locked it or now unlocked it again. Have to walk back to the car and pull the handle!! Maybe I just have dementia

Bought a new E46 M3 drop top with Ac schnitzer zorst back in 03,now own a zed which again I've had from new. Still miss that M car now as it was one of the best cars I've owned. Putting to one side the technological advances made with cars since then this is my comparison( coupe) not conv. 1. Performance wise a standard Z wont keep up on track due to the power disadvantage but balance and drivability on the throttle they are on a par. 2.yes the standard brakes on the m3 are shocking! 3. Exhaust note of that strait 6 at 8000 rpm rasping away is intoxicating! 4. Interior/seating of the BM was second to none.but in the Z you feel your in a drivers car. 5. Looks are subject to taste as each car is classed as a coupe and they are both so different,( saloon based verses ,two seater) 6.If I was in the market with 6k to spend on either it's a tough call if you have no desire to modify. 7. Gonna keep my old Datsun till they put me in a box... Bought a new E46 M3 drop top with Ac schnitzer zorst back in 03,now own a zed which again I've had from new.

The guy who did stand up. Steven grant I think it was Thats the one!!

It's breaking my brain to remember the members name who owned this first!!

Bare essentials?? You can't have it both ways; you said that Aston servicing would be more than £1000 per year. It's not, it's nearly half, and would probably be half again from an indy. Plus the GTR looks like it was designed with a ruler. Sure, if you want big numbers and license losing speed, I'm sure it's great. But it can't even be remotely compared to the aesthetics of an Aston or a Maserati, looking at the Maser, it just makes me yearn for one, irrespective of it's numbers and faults, I'd forgive it. I can't say I look at a GTR in the same way. I just looks and think, wow thats fast, and thats it.

Seems the Aston costs a lot less than £1,000 a year to service; https://www.astonmartin.com/en/ownership/servicing#pricing And thats Dealership prices
