    ....and that, ladies and gentlemen, is why your council tax increases year on year ...granted - it's a pain in the ass but no long lasting damage - move on with yer life!
  2. I would have a good check around the bodywork near the rear lense for repaired accident damage as I had the same problem after I had a respray - the garage had covered the rear lense with paint lacquer overspray - bastards. It might buff-up nicely but i doubt it as it is corrosive to plastic -'av a word with 'em!!!
  3. ...that includes Amsoil oil as well - that can affect warranty as well. I was told to change the oil after warranty runs out if you wanted to do it by the book. G

    Nice! Not polished????!!! Even in that 'filthy state' I fear you are putting alot of people to shame on this site!
  6. ...Sounds like a short circuit to me - after hoovering under the seats the other day and seeing the amount of wires hanging loose under the seats this would not surprise me!!! But then electrical wires and me stop at changing fuses in a plug!!!
  7. ...silly question but are you sure you have the switch set to the high or low heat setting?

    ...I think you would have to pay him to take your MGZR!! Take that back young man! haha ...as if I have anything to shout about - going Honda Civic this Saturday !!!! ....12 months and counting for an 07 plate 06! Good luck on finding that car - patience is a virtue - mind...have you checked out the other site as there is a GM going for a song?????? G

  10. How muc money you got and how much do you care for your car??!! I bought Amsoil 5w30 because it is good stuff but expensive if you buy from wrong place. Others swear on Motul 5w30 as well. Halfrauds do castrol semi-synthetic which others also swear by. Speak to www.opieoils.co.uk they do some great offers and there may be a club discount in place. G
  11. Ive been quoted £320 and £225 from my two nearest Nissan stealers. Take £40-50 off for supplying your own oil and filter (filter - why not! you can get one for 4.99 and you can gaurantee that it will be fitted)! G
  12. Top of the list for me would be quality of paintwork - swirl marks and chips etc. I effing hate swirl marks on any car - the less there are is a good measure of whther the owner knows how to look after and care for his/her car. Following on from this are the obvious - stone chips on bonnet/front spoiler - although this could be considered normal for Z as we know. Other obvious pointers - rev engine and have someone looking at exhaust to see if blue smoke is coming out as it might be burning more oil than petrol! All the niggly warranty issues can be found in FAQ section - which should not worry you as they can be sorted out under warranty. Hope this helps-im sure someone will come along with other advice G
  13. New supra and NSX - got any piccies!?
  14. Have a butchers here - 50k might be a bit optimistic: http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/secret_new_car.php?sid=224&page=1
  15. ....thats it-im moving to Brum!!!!
  16. Quote: 1. water down with hose ...No hosepipe ban in your area then!?
  17. Pm me your tel no. and I'll ring you Mon morning You have PM fella C'mon - spread the wealth - whats the secret???? Sorry mate but if I can't get 10, I can't get the price. People should know a good deal when they see one! Dont get me wrong - im in the market for some pads and have explored ALL options and this is a good price - unfortunately I might have to go DS2500 for two reasons; main reason is I want semi-metallic as opposed to ceramic, and reason two it dont look like you are going to get the numbers. Good work though in setting the deal up Blackie!

    Tyres

    Dont know about 'on-line' but if you live in the M3-M4 corridor a place called 'Basingstoke Tyres' apparently do good prices - someone I know does a round trip from Cambridge each time he needs new boots so it might be worth checking out. They have a general Web-site. G
  20. I think Ds2500's are semi metalic? Or is that the 3000's? That'll be ferrodo's then-cheers for the advice all
  21. Cheers for that-so it looks like I need some wet and dry and some decent semi-metalic brake pads - any recommendations (and nothing OTT!)? Ferodo DS2500's from Bigphil on other site - £85 + £6 delivery
  22. Are you sure Dash-you saying the pick-up is on the pads or the shoe but the disc is clean? What is the shoe?? cheers
  23. I need to change the discs though as I have picked up some residue on them or something which makes the steering wheel vibrate when braking.
