Agree with others, i would have said flywheel too. Had what sounds similar myself previously.

Same.

Handling is okay. It is straight line quick and stops well. It's not a particularly engaging drive and doesnt provide much feedback, and to be honest the bloody size of the thing makes me nervous to push on at too much speed. It's a big car. Although i guess you'd get that with a GTR or R8 too. I enjoy caning my beat up old BMW e90 320d more as i can really push on with that and the feedback is great. In the Mustang you're at licence losing speeds in < 5 seconds so you don't really get that much of a chance to push it to it's limits.

Mustang? I know it's not everyone's cup of tea and nowhere near the standard of cars mentioned on this thread, but it's within your price range and probably a better car for a daily. I've got the 5.0 V8 which is about as cheap as a Mondeo, but gets an insane amount of attention everywhere i go. Just yesterday an old fella got his phone out and filmed me leaving Tesco's. Can get as high as 22mpg when driving sensibly on A roads, but typically get 19mpg. It's also got the lairy fun factor that it sounds like you're after - i.e. i'm replacing my rear tyres now after only 6k miles from new. It's extremely tail happy. There's also a big modding scene which has been fun for me to get back into.

Is there a little button to the right and below of the steering wheel which says auto? It looks aftermarket rather than original equipment. I think that controls the auto dip feature...

I made my own back in the day...

The only kit i know of for this is the Works Bell Paddle shifter kit. This used to retail for about £350 back in the day. I don't ever think i've seen the kit for sale in this country. https://www.outcastgarage.com/products/works-bell-column-shifter-kit-paddle-shifter-carbon-fiber-350z-at-only https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WORKSBELL-CARBON-PADDLE-COLUMN-SHIFTER-KIT-FOR-NISSAN-350Z-G35-AT-STEERING-WHEEL-/291998055935

Cheers... Yeah, apart from that bit.

Here's some pics. Had it lowered 20/25mm last week and fitted 25mm spacers all round. Other recent additions are the black roof and stripes. And here's a quick video of the exhaust. It's difficult to film as i don't want to upset the neighbours too much, but also the sound is that loud it makes the video wobble and the audio cut out! It has much more bass in real life which the video doesnt pick up either. Almost rattles your chest.

Great video Jim... that was really serene watching that! Love the more aggressive front end with the extended front wheel arch over the lights. Mine isn't sounding too different from these at the moment either... I had my mufflers cut off.

I dont know it's been about 10 years since i did this on mine, but from memory, yes i think it could.

There's a one way valve under the front windscreen cowling. These can get blocked up. Find that and remove/replace to see if it cures it. I swapped mine out for a biro lid once for a big improvement.

Googling variations or shorter sections of the lyrics will be your way to find this... Quite a few options pop up when looking for 'Gloves in my hand and hat on one side' E.g

I love the current shape C-Class to look at, but it was really dull on a test drive. I drove the c220d and it had no urgency what so ever. Compared to my wife's BMW 320d it felt really pedestrian. I assume the E-Class may be similar? Test drive a Mustang if you haven't already. It's still quite wafty... it's not really a precision instrument.

I'll be lowering my Mustang in Jan/Feb and then i'm done for the year.

There should be another referendum in my opinion, but then i am a remainer. How 52% to 48% can be considered definitive on such a massive issue is beyond me. It's like Night vs Day... because it's night time for 5 mins longer one day, we must now go to permanent night time for the rest of our lives? If there was another referendum and the leavers won again then a) i'd eat my hat, and b) i'd accept it. But i think if they voted again it would be more like 25% vs 75% for the remainers. And if HSBC had released their advert with Richard Ayoade before the Brexit vote, it would have been a landslide for remain. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-1UNaA92fg

Yeah went about 6 months ago.

Hi Colin, welcome. An LPG kit...! I think that's only the second LPG conversion i've ever heard of on this forum in over a decade on here! Did you have this fitted yourself or was it on the car when you bought it? If you did it yourself, how does the performance compare to before? How many miles do you get out of a tank, and how much does that cost? Your car looks nice and straight.

Woah Matt... no way!! Still looks good mate... has brought back some good memories seeing this. Andy is correct above, this is a full RSW carbon fibre interior. Super rare and expensive. Also worth noting that it's got a UK triple-gauge pod which replaced the original JDM one (which i still have in my garage!) GLWTS. What you getting next mate?

What does it do? Sat Nav, music etc?

Link doesnt appear to be working.... what was this? EDIT. Never mind its working now. Ctrl+F5 did the trick.

Colour match of the bumper looks off as well.

Like a baby G Wagen

Whoa, just noticed this isn't resting on it's side...!!

Or maybe Vettel with a puncture a couple of laps from the end at Silverstone, to give Hamilton the victory!
