Dont know if its just me that didn't notice, but Nissan appears to have had the softest of soft launches for its new model. About time they've had a proper hatch in the line up, wonder what the eventual Nismo version will drive like? I'm interested for sure.

Not bad mate, we were just driving home from the newcastle ferry and a euro trip honeymoon! Ill do a wee write-up shortly.

Spotted a Blade and a Sunset at the 'ring today as we passed through on the Honeymoon (nearly done )

Of course I did the obligatory lap, intimidating as it is on first sight!

Recently auctioned off, £105K is an absolute steal for a near-airworthy Harrier. Wish it was mine!

(and of course a tornado for the price of a cheap sports car)

Cheers mate, we've been on the road 10 days now, and the Honeymoon's not even half way through! I'll probably be heading back through the passes next week, so hopefully the weather will be better. The road on the italian side of the Bernadino is massive, and then it's basically a constant 5% downhill motorway for miles down to Lugano.

Going well I see Will, me and Fran have made it to Como for a weeks chilling out. We stopped at the Belvedere stop too, but didn't go inside the glacier as we'd already had our glacier viewing earlier in the day

Think we were on the Furka about 2-3pm, and it was ok going up, but murky the rest of the way.

I approve of this thread.

 

Also i will keep the BMW center caps as i think Nissan caps on the wrong wheels will look to OEM and they are BMW after all

 

Oh wait. No, actually i didn't.

The pictures really give a feel of a really close, cosy and friendly day, must have been lovely

Cheers Struan, we had 41 for the ceremony and lunch, then about 140ish for the evening. We got married at 10.30am, so we had meals at the correct times (not 3pm!!!) and really had a full chilled day of it. I don't know how people manage to fit it all into an afternoon/evening, as our lunch finished at 3pm and people started arriving for the evening do at 3.30pm to have a few beers in the garden and get ready for the Hog at 6pm. Think I got round to talk to everyone though, so that was the main thing.

Yep, top lad. Wasn't expecting him to stay and party for the rest of the night, I think he was talking to Sophia about doing some gigs together, so watch this space!

Hello all!

Yes, while some members were busy partying at Lakez, another soiree was occurring just a couple of valleys over. The Lady Francesca and I got married after 9 long years together (just kidding dear!).

We were married (and partied) at the Woolpack Inn, Eskdale. We wanted a very casual village fete flavour to things, so we got people to bring cake and puds Bake-Off style.

We also really wanted to avoid as much of the wedding industry as possible, so to that extent, the good old Zed club came in very handy. Massive thanks to Stanski and Chris`I for performing photography duties, and Chris' wife Amanda for the amazing flower arrangements after helping Fran ram-raid the florists on thursday afternoon (Dont mention the W-word!!!).

Stan in particular was definitely a wedding snapper in a previous life, I believe he's also available for christenings and Bar Mitzvahs.

Also thanks to Martinmac for originally hiring young singer-songwriter David Kay to play at LakeZ two years ago. He was great then, and now even better at the ripe old age of 17!?? He was preceeded by another bright young talent, our friends daughter Sophia Brennan, who also sang Ashs' Shining Light for the first dance.

Anyway, it was a cracking weekend, and we really must do it again sometime!

Here's a couple more pics:

Not to worry come October 1st you can throw it away.

October 1st???? Is this an end of the world prediction?

Car tax is moving to online/direct debit, so you won't have to display a disc.

"...and looking absolutely beautiful!"

:lol: :lol:

I'm no fan of heavily modded Zeds, but I'll give a little....

Moderating is not a job, ergo, on a saturday afternoon, especially as a certain horse race is on, there may be some delay in approving sales.

And that, my friend, is enough.

Saris Bones - best of a lot of imperfect solutions and easy to get.

Hard Times indeed Ian, no doubt you will continue to carry him with you in your thoughts. All the best.

On a serious note though, are these a terrible tyre? When searching for some tyres next month, these were always flagging up.

 

ive had maz1 on my 350z and the old mans WRX never an issue mate handled well snetterton on my track days

Conversely my friends 370Z had these on when he bought it, and is keen to get rid of them once they wear out. Previously he's mostly ran Continentals on various hot hatches.

I'm sure a man of your calibre can give the motor a quick strip down if its possible Dave? Seem to be a common fault anyway, I would guess the comm and brushes (if it has them) just needs a clean out.

Can't wait to see it Stanley, Don't know if i'll be able to pop down before June, but you never know!

Should have dropped in and said hi

Great news Stan, perhaps see it for real in June?

Easy for me, just over the hill!

I think it's 275/40/19 and 245/40/19 off the top of my head.
