  1. I don’t think they’ll feel softened at all, the suspension in the RS especially isn’t known for being forgiving! Mature drive, yeah I’d go with that, but that’s not a bad thing. The 911 was certainly more mature than the 350, but it was also certainly on another level in terms of both being a sensible cruiser but also an amazing car to nail the arse off. I’d expect a TTRS to be much the same.
  2. With all due respect, it’s not like the 370 is particularly well known for being the pinnacle of driving excellence. Whilst I would always prefer rwd over 4wd myself, unless you’re capable of deducing the minutiae of chassis and power train nuances, I suspect that the RS will be the more thrilling car to own full stop. Cars have come an awful long way since the 350 chassis came out, let’s not forget. Plus you’re comparing one of the nicest interiors in a modern car to one thats *ahem* lacking cohesive design. That alone would go a long way to making you feel you’re sat in something much more special.
  3. Well that’s just bloody obvious. Maybe those people can pick up a used car instead, like the vast majority of people do?
  4. As reliable as anything else modern but not super fancy, ie very. TTRS will be much more expensive to run because of the RS tax, but ultimately a much better car plus that engine is worth it. Any car can be a possible lemon, I’ve no doubt there’s plenty of Zeds that have turned themselves off for no reason too. Flukes happen, it’s the known issues you need to worry about. Check the owners forums for more detail on those.
  5. Well that looks much better!
  6. On paper the specs are fine, but I dare you to drive one and not come away thinking that painting a beige wall seems more fun.
  7. Exploring space is massively important imho, I cannot wait to sit there in front of the holotelly and watch us land on Mars. It will unite us all in the way the moon landings did I think. Also, f*ck electric cars.
  8. That laugh Now give us a drive by, you tease!
  9. Or bump up vat on electricity, much easier to do that way. Or start charging people more if you have a fast charger for your EV in the garage.
  10. I would much rather they incentivise electric cars rather than banning ICE ones. Both have their place in the world.
  11. Out the neighbours kitchen window.
  12. Correct, but then kids these days are prioritising buying £40k cars on pcp and not worrying about the house at all, so that won’t change. Plus leccy cars won’t always be £40k.
  13. Nice and simple, exactly as it should be. Lovely job
  14. Have you even spoken to Nissan yet? Granted not easy to do atm, but even so your nearest dealer is your first call not NHQ.
  15. Meh. They all look the same, don’t they? Beautiful car mate, enjoy.
  16. I wouldn’t say it gave me any more traction, but what it did was give me so much more feel and that confidence enabled me to go that much quicker.
  17. Dude I run an MX5, I’m in no position to judge a 325! Well done on grabbing all that bracing btw, very few people ever do but it makes a HUGE difference to the car. I had it on my old revup ragtop and it transformed the chassis, especially the rear braces.
  18. Fast != fun.
  19. Why would you have your phone out standing by a checkout in Asda???!!! And I’ve always pre-prepped for drive thrus, wallet in the side pocket as soon as I get in the car The point that should be made is why the eff I don’t use my Apple Watch for it instead, as that is definitely always out...
  20. You won’t lose power, what you’re doing there is absolutely the right thing.
  21. An E90 Msport is not a car. It’s a 325i. /pedant Welcome along, enjoy your Zed as for track work, a simple set of better brake pads, some lighter wheels (Rays are perfect) and decent tyres are all you need to get going and make the most of your car. Really doesn’t need anything else at all, unless you want to get into silly money.
  22. Think I’ve only used Apple Pay in a shop twice since I’ve had my 8 Plus. Always feels quicker and more normal to whip my debit card out instead these days still, force of habit I guess. Another couple of weeks to wait for my 12PM, my case has arrived for it already though
  23. Good job insurance covers mechanical breakdowns, eh? Oh wait...
  24. Maybe Nissan will do a Toyota with the Supra. So we can expect to see it in about six years.
  25. Would he even know what a decent tyre is?
