  1. I had a semi-auto a few years ago that couldnt be held on foot brake on a slope. I always put it down to the fact that it was more like a manual than auto with it being paddleshift
  2. I'd like to get a runaround because I'm piling on the mileage on the zed, but I know I'd be driving the other car, hating it, wishing I was driving the zed. You would be surprised. I used to have an MG ZR which was basically a heap of junk even although it was a 54 plate. I changed it in June for a new Clio Campus Sport 1.2. I love driving the Z, but because the Clio is such a good car to drive I am more than happy to drive it and it also makes the times when you do drive the Z more enjoyable and you appreciate it more. When I was in the MG, I hared every minute of it. Until this week as I have been on holiday, I hadn't driven the Z much in the past 5 weeks, used less than a tank of petrol. Same here. My zed hasnt been used since Sunday & wont be used until Friday next week. Asmuch as I love the zed it was never an option as an everyday car for me, partly due to my heavy right foot . Unfortunatley I work every other weekend but every call out I attend it makes more money for Zed goodies
  3. Is this going to be a limited offer or will they still be available after christmas? Can you do them with tyres? As soon as my credit cards are cleared Im having a set of these
  4. Greenlight wont insure anyone under 25 on a zed Adrian Flux wanted 3.5k & thats with 3yrs NCB, 0 points
  5. Treat yourself early? Dont try and tempt me Got a few things that need doing before then & my parents have agreed to pay for it
  6. Im hoping this is still around in May so I can do it for my birthday I will prove then that GM IS the fastest colour
  7. Ive had that in some cars ive owned. Ive had some cars that need the ignition on to power any lights and some that you can use the lights without them
  8. That would be a fantastic TV series
  9. I just need to find the 2K for them now, they look superb
  10. Having a perspex window fitted this morning & getting a quote for the front bumper today aswell. Need to wait then for them to order a window and the get that fitted when its in stock
  11. Got any pics? Of the Evo? sure I can find them somewhere
  12. I really think the red would work well with the GM. Ive seen a GM Evo with the same colour wheels and it looked superb. At the moment im definatley gonna get a set of these, but then ive always had strange tastes I did have a yellow car until i saw the error of my ways

    JWT Pop charger

    I think performancenissan.com & mynismo.com are the same site ? Is anything else needed or will everything be included in the kit? I know in the past when ive bought filters ive needed to order a filter for the air pump aswell.
  17. I think they would look great on a GM car with the red rim. At the moment these are the wheels ill be going for
  18. Probably going to order a JWT pop charger in the next couple of weeks. Ive been looking around and the cheapest ive found is £135 from America though more than 50% of that price is for the delivery. Is there anywhere I can get 1 from in the UK? or anywhere where I can get cheaper shipping? Been looking at it from Mynismo.com
  19. I like. How much?
  20. I think it was the sat nav holder that attracted them, normally park facing the wall but I reversed into the space today. Gonna make sure I take as much as possible out of the car whenever I leave it anywhere
  21. This week cant seem to get much worse at the moment. Yesterday I was at a roundabout and the car infront went to go, I went to go aswell as the roundabout was clear & the other guy stopped . I went into the back of him luckily only about 5mph so Ive cracked the front bumper but no damage to his car. .Today I went to visit a customer in Cardiff today and parked in the NCP car park as usual. Only left the car for 20 minutes came back to be greeted by my passenger window being left all over the seats . Waited an hour for the police to come out but its doubtful anything will be done. Its lucky they missed my TomTom in the centre console and my PDA that was in the door. On top of that the 20 minutes i parked there cost me £3.20 Need to take time off work tomorrow to get the window sorted & to go to the garage to get an estimate on the front bumper being repaired. Only positive is that the Zed is safely tucked away at home . Beware when out shopping and take everything you can out of the car when you leave it. Rant over although im wondering what will happen tomorrow as these things usually come in threes
  22. I was tempted to get a Supra TT as my daily car last year but I was told by owners about the poor running costs such as single figure MPG They are stunning cars but from what ive heard are very expensive to maintain & tune
  23. Happy Birthday
