    number plate bracket

    Cheers!! Yeah Halfords can do the tape or i'll bring my roll on the NW drive and you can have some of that if you want. I got my plate from a local car shop for £9. Halfords wanted £15 i think. 4 screws, two for the plate and two for the bracket. For such little effort its made a good difference i think. might be being thick here (again) but why the screws if you stuck it straight on the bumper?

    actually that looks a lot better. I'm just a bit worried about ripping it off if I had to change plates over.

    front. I just feel funny about sticking it on the paintwork but I guess I'll wait and see.
  4. anyone know where I can get one? I've looked on ebay but nothing. Guess I'll have to go to Nissan? Don't fancy sticking the plate straight onto the bumper.
  5. I suppose you could have great parties in the back of it! I'd be ok in the snow too.
  6. it's a favour rather than a courtesy car - he's doing me a good deal as a trader off a jap car forum I'm a member of. Nevertheless.........
  7. I got N11 XYD last year and originally put it on the car as N11XY D (my surname begins with a D). I ended up feeling so self conscious that I took the plates off and got new ones correctly spaced. That's typical of me though - no bottle! I've still got both sets! I couldn't get N1XY D
  8. good, cos I'm crying at the thought of driving it until Friday! Those pictures don't even show how bad it really is! Or how big!
  9. you could say that!
  10. monster truck pictures inside and out - would have been better with a person stood next to it or another car to really appreciate the size!
  11. oh god don't. It wouldn't surprise me if there was some dead stuff in the back - I daren't look! And the gears - well have you seen the ones on buses? Bit different from my close ratio type R gears - by about 6 feet! I could also do with a rope ladder to get in and out!
  12. seriously, hands up to being a woman on this one - I'm still sat at work cos I don't want to drive the beast home! The guy only uses it to go shooting and it shows!
  13. good point! Let them work that one out at the post office!
  14. Mm, worrying - mine's not even here yet! Wonder how to find out?
  15. i will take some when/if I get home in one piece! I may also have to park on top of any other cars in my drive rather than try to reverse it!
  16. dropped the civic off this morning at a local bodyshop for some minor work. Nice guy said he'd lend me a car until mines ready. He'd forgotten his promise and didn't have the keys to the little runaround I was supposed to be borrowing. However, he did have something else that he said was a bit of a beast! The biggest ugliest filthiest 4x4 i have seen in my life! Isuzu trooper - jacked up with a huge space between the wheels and the arches - full of mud, shotgun cartridges, cups of coffee with mould on and tools - he sniggered as I drove away..............just had a right chuckle vision session at the garage putting fuel in - my mate from work had to literally pull me into the car from the passenger side it is so high! Nightmare!
  17. Love it - not more than the other one but it's still lovely. Very classy.

    Rome

    still on my first but I'm his third so I've got a bit of catching up to do!
  19. I've got a video ipod and really like it. I use it mainly with itrip in the car which isn't the best quality but ok for the time being. I find itunes very easy to use and have had no problems at all as yet.
  20. Hi there! Can't see you having a problem finding a nice car on that budget - happy hunting! Nic

    Rome

    If you can live with doing everything in the household yourself and having someone tell you that "la mama" cooks better than you, go ahead you forgot the bit about towering over 'em as well yeah actually, I forgot about all that - maybe I'll stick to looking!

    Rome

    Just got back from my girls weekend in Rome - what can I say. The colleseum was awesome, the Vatican museum was fantastic but the greatest thing of all was........THE MEN! The men in Rome are all gorgeous - even the Policemen are great looking! Sorry, you're probably not interested in that bit but trust me, my next husband is going to be italian! The traffic was unbelievable and I would strongly recommend that nobody ever take their Z anywhere near! I don't think I saw one car that wasn't damaged, people actually shunted their way in and out of parking spaces and you took your life in your hands every time you tried to cross the road! a good time was had by all - I'm knackered now though!
  24. i think you're probably right - the program disc is probably the same as yours and the map disc is just the updated roads. I've seen them on ebay for my VDO dayton sat nav - they are copies for about £20 instead of the original for about £100.
  25. oh fab! Does a blackbird stuck in my front grille count? I'm leaving it to decompose cos I daren't touch it - yuk!
