  1. can't do this, I like too many different things for different reasons and it changes all the time. Braveheart music makes me cry though..............
  2. ah that's great news then if it's an aftermarket UK sat nav - I can chat to a lovely japanese woman on mine and see a nice map of japan!
  3. you would probably enjoy rifling my 90's record collection then.
  4. Teddy Riley eh? I went to see him at Manchester Apollo when he was in a group called Guy - bit before your time me thinks.
  5. Hi there and welcome. Are you the first UK owner? If you're aftermarket sat nav is jap then that won't work either I'm afraid. Nice looking motor though of course. And if you're buying the car from a dealer thats already imported it shouldn't they sort out the light for you?
  6. I don't want to offend anyone here so please don't take this colour business the wrong way BUT, I think it's a good thing if you're a TO owner that they've stopped doing it. When I was looking for a Z the first thing I said was I definitely don't want silver - nearly all the ones that were for sale at the time in my price range were silver or GM and all the ones on the road I had seen were silver as well, i wanted something more unusual and that's why I think the orange will re-sell just fine. Bet if you do an autotrader search now there will be tons of silver ones. It's a stunning colour but it's not always a good thing when it's too easy to get hold of.
  7. well I can't be the only one that likes it best. Sunset was the first Z I ever saw. It was in a car park and as soon as the engine started I knew I had to have one. Anyway Sarnie, what you doing here, shouldn't you be on strictly come dancing?
  8. I think you're all rotten, I love the orange and the sunset obviously. I never realised sunset was hard to shift, all I know is that that was my first colour choice and it was very hard to get one.
  9. I suddenly don't feel as old as I did looking at some of those cars! My list: Fiat Uno Peugeot 309 Golf GTI Mk2 Suzuki Vitara Soft top fat boy version Mazda MX3 V6 BMW 3 series compact Golf GTI Mk4 Jaguar X Type Peugeot 206cc Honda Civic Type R 350z
  10. another one in the best colour - hello!

    Kev's New Car

    very nice indeed! Are you quite a petite man then Kev?
  12. hello, nice car.
  13. I'm back again in 2 weeks to sit in a darkened room! If you have to do that every day I feel sorry for you!
  14. what about a nice big rat infested island where they get dropped off by parachute.
  15. you're correct about the playstations etc but although I do not agree with it there is a reason. If someone is in prison for example life then they have nothing to lose by being violent and uncontrolable. They use this stuff as a way to control them by reward or loss. I used to do the same thing when my son was little! Personally I think they should be out breaking rocks all day and then locked up all night!
  16. that's my point, why is our public transport so crap and so expensive. Other countries can do it why can't we?
  17. you're not accounting for the fact that I'm geographylexic and Millbank tower is right in the scary middle bit of London!
  18. they are bloody horrible - what the hell are they for?
  19. I think it would cost a tad more than £40 from York!
  20. definitely something to be wary of. My son wanted me to do the same for him when he got his car. I wouldn't do it. His insurance was £1600 with Liverpool Victoria fully comp before he passed his test. He paid it monthly by direct debit as he's working. He has now got 2 years no claims and has just taken out a policy for tp fire and theft for about £400. On the other hand, one of his mates had his dad as the insurer and wrote his car off, Dad insured again on the next car and he wrote that off as well! His dad also took 3 points for him when he was speeding. My son has never even had a bump - probably because he has more to lose as it's HIS insurance. Sometimes you just have to do it the hard way!
  21. not been there since I was 15! Wouldn't be able to drive and claim the cost back - not that I'd want to drive in that place either! I can get to my mum's house in southern France quicker and cheaper than I got to London yesterday!
  22. I had to attend a meeting yesterday at Millbank Tower - my first trip to the big smoke since a school trip! I was relying on public transport - nightmare! Train from York got stuck between York and Doncaster for about 40 mins as the train in front had broken down. My meeting was re-scheduled by an hour to compensate. Finally got to Kings Cross and had to get a tube train to Pimlico. I couldn't believe how claustrophobic and hot the underground was! Anyway, that train was stuck in a tunnel so I had to find my way via other tubes then hoof it over to Millbank. Took me 4 hours in total and cost..............£205!!!!!! No wonder people drive! How anyone can stand doing all that Tube business every day is beyond me - it would give me permanent migraine! Got to do it all over again in a fortnight - can't wait!
  23. bizarre! What makes it more odd is the fact it went in for a service and they never noticed anything wrong - like no oil etc. Wierd........
  24. Hi Pete - can't wait to see the pics.
