  1. with shin pads as well?
  2. this is the only one that interests me to be honest, its all the jap cars i just love them all!
  3. on itv2 now. love it or hate it the zed drifting around that multi story car park is awesome............
  4. in his younger days probably not!
  5. A John Barnes master class eh?
  6. oh you're joking did they really say that? Someone's been watching too much fast and the furious!
  7. God Cara, how did you find out about me doing that?
  8. don't usually like tints but they finish that one off nicely as well.
  9. Don't need to be a stranger just because you changed your car!
  10. I agree with the experience over age comment. Maybe the driving test should be based on driving hours (bit like a pilot) rather than letting someone with bags of confidence pass their test after a handful of lessons and then be loose on the road? Don't think there'll ever by a 'right or wrong' answer to this one but the current system isn't up to much either.
  11. That just makes it worse if nobody says happy birthday.............
  12. I'm not saying that kids are likely to get into trouble if their parents pay for stuff - Stew you obviously had kind folks but they still taught you the value of things. I lent my son the money for his first moped but he got a saturday job and paid me back every month with every penny he earned - when he paid half of it I let him off the rest but he never knew or expected I would do that. Its the kids that know the price of everything and the value of nothing that have the problems. Easy come easy go. My step daughter got given everything she ever stamped her foot for and turned out to be a total materialistic brat that got into all sorts of trouble with drugs etc.
  13. Having spent a lot of time around young lads of a certain age (my son and his mates) I can see that for them it was mainly an issue of street cred, showing off and wanting to have the fastest car. I know for a fact that the ones who could afford to drive Type R's and other sporty cars would show off and also let their mates have a go to see what it was like. Out of all the lads my son grew up with he is the only one that never crashed his car at some point after his test and shall I tell you why? Because I was the only mean parent that made him pay for his own lessons, his own test, his own car and his own insurance in HIS OWN NAME. His mates all had their parents as main drivers on their cars and one even got points for speeding which his father took for him! My son knew exactly what it would cost him if he crashed his car and was therefore a lot more careful. It meant nothing to the others who just got bailed out by their parents time and time again.
  14. agree on the megs shampoo plus - I had a huge container of this at a reasonable price and it lasted ages. I'm still using Auto Glym for polish and wax - it's not expensive, easy to use and works well.
  15. There is no such thing as a 'premium pack' as far as I know. The uk standard model and GT are both the same car with different interior spec - eg. GT has leather heated seats and Bose stereo. There are more differences between JDM versions. All can be found in the FAQ section of the forum.
  16. Nurrish today and yesterday n1smo350z - now offically old enough to shave (just).
  17. i got some from clean and shiny especially for the job. its so fine that its also used to apply wax to furniture etc. I would just test on the underneath first if you're worried. the one i use isn't even the finest you can get.
  18. oh my god I'm phoning for some counselling.....
