  1. Not sure about the others but I always check 'new content' so whether it's under the umbrella of 350 or 370 is immaterial
  2. I've got a da and a rotary for correction, always top up hand though Mad but I find it therapeutic
  3. What tyres are you running ? Helluva grip there !
  4. So you apply the polish/wax to a damp foam to apply? Is this to reduce marring? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Yes, less is more, it also makes it easier to buff, majority advise damp application Try it, warm water, squeeze the sponge til it's just damp
  5. Is that based on a psychological profile? Lol of course, I just needed to check the data base, every new member for the last 7 yrs has a profile this is about .....wanting to know the negative points of 370 which in turn will justify hanging on to the 350 a bit longer
  6. Ha ha no way Im gonna tighten them with a spanner lol Im sorry to hear that, hope it won't happen to mine Throw some lube on the threads or they won't come off in a few months ! They fuse to the valves
  7. Reading through this I don't think a 370 is for you
  8. I looked at quite a few before I purchased, non were anywhere near what you describe, at that mileage the interiors all looked as new that I viewed
  9. As above, I would say the hu has rest to default settings
  10. Mileage is not an issue as long as the history is good Just reading about a 350 with 175k on it and no problems
  11. They look ace Make the car look much more aggressive
  12. Refer to http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/84594-ghosts/
  13. You'll get no lubrication with just water, so you will inflict marring. A good shampoo will also clean more efficiently/effectively too so yes, you will notice a difference between using a shampoo and just water, but you might also notice differences between shampoos too; some clean better, some lubricate better, some add gloss enhancers, some add protection, some gives lots of suds, some just smell nice. For me, the two main things a shampoo must do is firstly remove dirt effectively, and secondly be well lubricated whilst doing that - I like a shampoo that feels nice and slick on the paint over one that gives loads of suds in the bucket/on the panel. On the odd occasion I may also want something that leaves a decent gloss but most of the time I don't, as such my choice of shampoo is usually dictated by the LSP on the car. Which shampoo does what best though is quite subjective, as shown in this thread. hmm where's this going
  14. She must be off the forum, did she mention BMW ? How did you know that? Do you know her? Was it you?? I know her, her name is Doris Stokes
  15. She must be off the forum, did she mention BMW ?
  16. Thanks I'll give this ago at the weekend. Anyone know of any mainstream stores I can get replacement battery's from or will I have to order online? Halfords, b&q probably most watch retailers, much cheaper on eBay but buy a decent make
  17. Keep it sensible as per the OP's request or get out of his thread !
  18. Midnight in Edinburgh, there were a lot spirits .. The liquid kind it was good, I enjoyed it They were separate comments ... Preying on the vulnerable at their lowest point for financial gain is a different thing surly on like ghost walks etc its a form of entertainment, asking someone to come to your house and talk to aunt mable then yea B@llox I always do that ! Reply within a quote ... Phone !
  19. The bonnet hinges should be lubed, lack of lube makes them not work correctly as they are a cantilever. It's when this occurs they hit the top of the wing, chipping the paint This should be done on a service as should be the bonnet catch but I would guess its overlooked So worth a check - top of the wing by the windscreen Another common fault are the rear hatch springs, they're rubbish but easily remedied
  20. Slightly off topic I did the midnight ghost walk in Edinburgh, which was good For all that DO NOT believe - do you consider all spiritualists to be liars and thieves ?
