  1. In Virginia atm and just spotted the new GTR, its sounds and looks so sexy! Attached some pics!

     

    Also bought a 2005 black 350z convertible for buttons (22,000 USD which is about 12,000 GBP atm) with only 19,000 on the clock!

     

    Orange one is still sittin in glasgow if anyone wants it? :S:S lol

  2. I did this one time on the motorway when it was dark and in a blackspot because the car behind me was flashing his headlights at me (i couldnt tell it was a marked 5 series)... I thought he wanted a race, so i put it into 4th and got up to about 110 or so before he put the lights on.

     

    Pulled me over and said "Do you know what the fvck you just did?"

     

    I told him that because he flashed his lights i thought he may have been trying to tell me something was wrong with my car, so i wanted to make sure my accelerator pedal was working properly.

     

    He actually started laughing, said it was the most amusing thing he had heard all week and let me go because of that fact, after he checked out my insurance, and all of the other vehicle details of course, i almost peed my pants!

  3. 2007 - Honda Civic Type S

    2004 Yamaha R6 - Binned It

    2007 Yamaha R6 - Binned It

     

    Now I've got the 2004 350z and a 2008 GSXR 750, both are fun, but in such different ways!

     

    Looking at getting one of the following for a next car, but insurance is steep cause of all the "binnin" haha -

     

    Mercedes SLK 55

    VXR8

    BMW M6

    Lambo Gallardo (looking at 2004 models as prices have dropped so much!)

     

    Test Drove a Ferrari 360 and didnt like it much to be honest, and there are alot of MR2's and 406's - running around that look just like it.

  4. This guys is de-restriced and he tells me it hits just over 165mph at redline - i dont know him, but i hear he is one sexy bastard... :p

     

    PS - He is sorry for the pic quality, but it was taken from a mobile phone video clip haha

     

    PPS - The GPS at the time this pic was taken recorded 153mph, i think, so yeh the speedo's are all out by variable margins for sure

  5. Seeing people suggest putting other parties on the insurance to bring the premium down, surely the problem with that is if you crash the other party also has an accident registered against them too!? Even if it doesn't affect their no claims, any accident will increase their premium surely??? :wacko:

     

    No, the accident goes against an individual driver, but will affect the policyholder's no claims. ;)

     

    You can protect the policy holders no claims, usually this option costs about 10 - 50£ - I pay about 300 i think to protect my dads no claims, because he wouldnt have me on the policy without it (quite right i would say :p haha)

  6. Are you the richest person in the world? :)

     

    No! haha, I do like cars, motorcycles and speed though - so most of my money goes towards what i just listed lol

     

    I'm sure if you ask most 19 year olds their insurance will compare to mines - I worked in insurance when i was younger, and, even though i didnt see any guys my age with a 350z i did see some rediculous quotes for Evos, Subarus and the likes for guys around 19 - 21 - i would much rather have a zed though ;)

  7. Its prob worth that but might not get it. The change of engine may put a seed of doubt in peoples minds even though it makes the car a better deal. Good luck with the sale tho bud, hope you get what you want for it :thumbs:

     

    Thanks buddy - yeah i am well aware that some people might think they should stay away from the car because of the engine troubles, but end of the day its a completely different engine with different internals so *shrug*.

     

    Ill have to wait and see what kinda offers i get, thanks mate :D

  8. This year its 4,900 (the AA), last year it was just under 6,000 at £5,945 (kwik Fit)...

     

    I'm 19 - and ive had the car since i just turned 18.

     

    Before that i had the New Honda Civic Type S (think it was a 2006) and my insurance was £2800 i think (when i was 17).

     

    *shrug* lol

     

    I think im still within the 14 day cooling down period i think, if anyone else can recommend a good insurance company for young Z drivers haha

     

    Jesus christ.................................. I thought £1500 for my old 106 GTi was a bit steep. Try Adrian Flux on 08000 83 88 33.

     

     

    Try www.elephant.co.uk also stick one of your parents on the insurance it will reduce alot!!!!

     

    I'm already a named driver on my dads policy - even though the car is mine - i made sure the insurance company was made aware it is my name, and not my dads on the V5... But its still that expensive...

     

    My dad is with elephant (was with admiral last year) and i tried them both - both were well over 7 grand, perhaps its the area?

     

    I actually tried the following, and 4900 this year was my cheapest quote...

     

    Confused

    Comparethemarket

    GoCompare

    Moneysupermarket

     

    And the best quote i got was from the AA at 4,900£ :/

     

     

    You got points or something???

     

    Only got a speeding offence - should my insurance really be cheaper? even if i call up companies its always rediculously expensive...
