  1. Good job. Like the 'how to do photos'
  2. Very nice
  3. Falkens
  4. It is truly a 'wow' place to see. If anyone has a chance to visit Japan, it is a great day out. Unfortunately you cannot just walk in. There are many hurdles to go through.
  5. Having been to the Tochigi Plant a couple of years ago and seeing them being built and coming off the end of the production line, I can confirm they are well and truly 'boken in' before they leave the production building.
  6. Ba**ards! Feel for you. Used to know of a very good local body shop but he has vanished off the scene. PM me your phone number if you want to have a chat
  7. I recently bought a Z GT Edition, and being self employed I couldn't get a bank loan at a decent APR as I don't have 2yrs worth of audited accounts yet. However buying the car new, at Nissans 6.9%, coupled with £8k off the list price, made buying new only slightly more expensive to that of buying a £20k second hand car, with the extended warranty package added on, on APR of say 14%. This is a really good point. There are some good deals to be had if you are a cash buyer and can haggle a bit

    Out of interest what is your budget?
  9. I would get him to take it to a local garage. Kwik Fit are the last people I would go to do any work, let alone leave them with my car keys . On a serious note, call the AA or RAC and they will hapilly recommend a good local Independant Garage to do the work. One thing I will say though that brakes are a serious point on a car. If they all did need doing and only half of them were done, where would this have left Kwik Fit legally should an accident happen where the brakes were a contributing factor ?
  10. Thanks mate, the wife already has one but there will be days when I have little stanners and his buggy and she will be at work in hers. Adding her to the insurance on mine was not an option as she knows I would be out inspecting it after every trip, so therefore refused to drive it. :-) Yep, i wouldnt let my missus near mine with a barge pole. And good point about when your looking after the kid & your missus is at work, i didnt think about that. Simple really. She leaves her car at home for you to drive and catches the bus to work . Isn't that what every caring wife should do?
  11. Sorry to hear this. Hope he makes a full receovery.
  12. Potion? You some kind of wizard? Potion? You some kind of wizard? Well the Government seem to be with the ongoing hikes in Road Tax! . They would say that Road Tax is just general taxation and has nothing to do with looking after the roads
  13. +1 on that. My car 4K..................yes 4K! Iv'e seen it and I would give you £4.5k no problem £4.5K + £11.5K = £16k That sounds better
  14. Welcome. Better late than never
  15. You have a knack of making people feel better . £460 is enough, let alone any more!
  16. Welcome . Keep your eye on the South West Forum for upcoming events
  17. Nissan would tell you it was a fault with the unit but it is 'out of warranty' so would cost you £2k to repair :lol:
  18. Wow, that had me going I have to say
  19. That is what I thought but reading the literature it hits the next road tax bracket.
  20. That is what I thought but reading the literature it hits the next road tax bracket. Can any new 370z owners comment?
  21. Welcome . Good luck in your search.
  22. Been looking at exchanging my 350z for a 370z at the current time. Noticed that a double decker bus's road tax was £500, then I noticed the 370z's is over £800 Where do the government get these figures from? How can any car polute nearly twice that of a double decker bus? The question is when are the roads going to improve?
  23. +1 on that. My car 4K..................yes 4K!
