  1. Birdview is pretty good but doesnt take postcodes. Also at £1800 fitted it is too expensive. Get a TomTom and use the money for other things.

     

    Having used a TomTom for the last couple of years I really didnt like the Birdview system and thats why I dropped it off the list of "must have's" when purchasing my Z, I use the space saved to keep my TomTom in ;)

  2. I returned to the car in a supermarket car park, pressed the unlock button, doors unlocked and indicators flashed twice. Opened the door and a few seconds later the alarm starts going off. I closed the doors and locked the car, minute or so later the alarm stopped. Unlocked, opened doors, few seconds, alarm going again, couldnt start the car. Locked again, waited for the alarm to stop, unlocked the doors and this time got the keys into the ignition and engine started. Pulled away and alarm started going while driving. It went off a minute later and stayed off. This morning I went to the car and everything appears to be working fine again. Should I be worried or did the system just get temporarily confused?

  3. I didnt really notice much difference between the 276 and 296 engine (I owned a 276 engine but just test drive the 296) so I wouldnt base your decision purely on that, the interior improvements on the 296 onwards are well worth it though. Noticed a huge difference between my old 276 and my current 313 engine but this is whole new engine so it's to be expected :)

  4. Haha, yep, I think slowly but surely everyone is becoming converted. I think when we actually see one in the showroom it will be a sure fire "buy it now" :) I even like it and blue and red and I normally can't stand blue or red cars!

  5. I have noticed a very light dent on the rear plastic bumper, barely noticeable and I think if I could get some pressure behind it it would pretty much flatten back out. I have tried to put my hand up behind but there is all sorts in the way (exhaust). Any easy way to get behind without majorely taking bits apart?

  6. What the hell have they done in the boot?! They've move the strut, but your still left with the turrets! You still cant use the space much more other than for taller items :wacko: Looked more puposeful in the 350z.

     

    Gotta put the shocks somewhere.

  7. Definetely liking it more and more. Like the 350z it looks so much nicer with the little rear wing some of them have been seen with, tidies up the rear really nicely. Still not quite convinced about the front but think this will look better in the flesh.

  8. Got the car back today and can't tell there was ever a problem :) Very happy with the quality of the work from Pennings in Leighton Buzzard. Apparently once the small rear windows are taken out they cannot be put back in hence the new one being required.

  9. still cant decide :headhurt: its a bit angular :wacko:

    I really like it in the above colour but all other colours I've seen so far don't have the same impact. Can't beat Grey ;)

  10. Ding in the rear wing and they have removed the window????

     

    If it was a door ding it cant have been that deep..

     

    Simple fill and respray for that area..... I think they are taking the p155.. No wonder premiums are so high! Good job your not paying the bill...

     

     

    Yeh, I definetely think they're going over the top with the work. As long as it comes back as new I'll be happy, just made me feel a little nervous the fact they're taking the window out! Dent wasnt even that deep but it was the first thing I saw every time I looked at the car so had to be sorted.

  11. Had someone open their car door on my rear wing at the weekend, going through insurance and my car was taken away on Monday to be repaired. Had a call to say I should get it back next week but they are waiting for the new rear window to come in!!!!! Looks like to paint they have to remove the rear window. Sounds like the bodyshop just milking the 3rd parties insurance company but now I kind of wished I'd just got dentmaster to push the dent out and paid for it myself :(
