  1. Yep, been on its hols and who can blame her....better than being here in the cold and wet, yuk.
  2. My Ultra Yellow GT4 is arriving tomorrow, forgot to ask the reg number but it did get a 57 plate from the DVLA. - just a little excited /P
  3. Owners of cars parked at Coney without plates should be flogged!! Look familiar ?
  4. These are a couple of mine...the 'G' had to go tho
  5. I had a rather angry spat with a traffic cop a couple of years ago over my dodgy plate, correct font (Charles Wright) and size...iffy spacing. He was that angry he put my number on their wanted system, he loved to inform me I would be stopped by any Police car with the plate recognition equipment. Over the next 12 months it happend 4 times aghh. I had already made a legal set and another that I fitted that wasn't quite...but nearly - been ok touch wood!!. If you don't know the MOT guy he will charge you to sign his name and you will need to go with legal plates of course - I was told at the time by the plod if you get caught a second time with an iffy plate you lose the registration. They also warn you if you buy a plate from the DLVA when you call to pay .... ummmm
  6. Me, someone....and custard car ( or van ) will make it
  7. I don't want to ramble....whooooshhhh Are you coming? Oh yes - custard car convoy...wouldn't miss that
  8. Try some G3 and a mop, if the paint has orange peel you'll need to knock it back with 1200 W&D paper ( & soapy water ) paint shop should have done this anyway. Sounds shoddy to me
  9. I'm next...coloured diamonds please
  10. I've seen a few sellers on E*bay stating - if you pay by cash you must bring it to my bank and pay it in - seems a good idea, you get to find out if its genuine money and when they ask you where you obtained it you can say 'im 'ere! and point maybe a bit OTT but might save you a load of agro in the future.
  11. Funnily enough I've never dropped mine off a seven storey building or run it over with a car Just be honest, it's for pose value not economics or technical reasons but at least holds it money well You keep telling your self that!! I had an N95 a few months ago, supposed to be the dogs bits - too ruddy clever for me...its back in the cupboard and the pumpkin V3x is back out...wonder if they do an ultra yellow version
  12. Buxton is good for me - but after the 1st Sept...haven't picked up my car yet. /Paul
  13. Have at look here... http://www.met.police.uk/fraudalert/sec ... _fraud.htm "As it is most likely an attempt at FRAUD with you as the intended victim. This is because a stolen cheque or bankers draft can be recalled by the bank even after the funds have gone through the clearing cycle and are showing on your account." My advice - unless its a week day and you can confirm with the issuing bank the draft is genuine and not stolen...wait until you can....you WILL lose if it is a fraudulent transaction...you have no defence. Don't imagine for one moment the police or your bank will try to help you...you'll be on your own. Here endeth the lesson /P
  14. i can appreciate that you feel somewhat like a sale has fallen through, but in reality you have averted a nasty brown-trouser moment in the future IMO Thanks! I do feel like that alittle bit. I didnt get my hopes up too much though, i knew that my car wasn't sold until the money was in my bank. Anyway she got a treating to some V power and a full valet today. took me 3 hours! with the rubbish weather we've had she's not looked this good in a while Just as a PS.... Even if you use cleared funds for a transaction ie cheque/bank draft and wait for clearance, if it was a fraudulant transaction ie stolen cheque/draft you may still lose your money...the bank wont lose theirs! As for a bank TT (transfer) you should wait at least 24hrs after you receive your cleared payment as it can be recalled within this period and there is nothing you can do!! This was a new one on us - we had received payment into our business account and were about to ship the goods when I noticed a bank recall transferring the money back out of our account about 3 hours later...advice from the bank is wait 24hrs at least as the recall request needs to be presented within this time. PayPal - forget the 90 days, if the payee disputes the transaction through their card company you will lose, PayPal will not defend the claim on your behalf. Its a minefield - if you're not 100% happy with the transaction walk away, always better to lose the sale than lose the goods and the money. /Paul
  15. Sorry to say, I think it was certainly myself that has just dented your wallet then. Mine isnt at Coney Green that often as the missus has it as her car for work. I do take it every now and then though, usually park it sideways under the windmill when I do. It will be there again next Thursday as the missus is taking my car so her and a couple of friends can go shopping for the day. Im more than willing to pop out any evening after work and have a chat if you like, any excuse to drive it Yep its all ur fault - I'm the last unit under the windmill!! side on it looked stunning, never seen anything like it - bang on my door on Thurs /P
  16. Sure will - pics look great /P off topic ... but do you make shop sign's ? only I am ready for some on my shop We only supply the equipment now for making vinyl signs & graphics - I prefer sellin to doin /P
  17. Coney Green, Clay Cross - I'd never seen a yellow 350Z before and it was parked opposite me....straight onto G**gle and read up on the GT4 info. Gordon L*mbs have got one so went for a peek a couple of weeks ago, needs paint and front alloys refurbing miles were high also, so gave it a miss...but it looked great even in the rain!! Does the club keep any records of build dates (not reg dates) for GT4's I assume Nissan could probably knock out 176 in a single shift If anyone local wants to show me theirs (car !!) before next weekend and give me a few pointers to lookout for on a GT4 I'd be grateful - I know the PS2 has gone but I don't want to find out later other things have too. Cheers /P
  18. Hi all I do intend to get a letter or provenance for the car from the UK Nissan dealer just to clarify a few points, plus it can only help with any future sale. Its just a colour thing...the yellow does it for me, I saw one outside my business premises a few months ago and that was that! The PS2 has gone..checked that straight away, my understanding is the car was exported to Cyprus in 2005 to a Nissan dealers showroom and there it stayed until recently re-imported. With delivery miles and a 57 reg its still a fairly unique vehicle - it was never gonna be cheap and I know for a few £K more a trip down to the local Nissan dealer would get me the latest model, but to be quite honest I really wouldn't bother. I had a red Evo VIII for half a day a couple of years ago...I wanted, I needed a yellow car and to me this is prettiest yellow beast you can buy. Cheers Paul
  19. The car was obviously built in 2005, but as it was never registered it will be entitled to a 57 plate on the first of Sept and as it still only has 6 miles on the clock so still pretty unique IMO. Surprisingly ( I think anyway) Nissan will still give it a 3 year warranty. It was exported to Cyprus and spent its life in a dealers showroom, it must have been trailered everywhere as it didn't travel far under its own steam. Cheers Paul
  20. Just a quick hi to everyone, I've taken the plunge and bought an unregistered 350Z GT4. Should be on the road 1st Sept on a 57 plate. Son can't wait to have a play...not on your life I hope it lives up to expectations Cheers Paul
