  1. Allcar tyres and exhausts in hudds have a Hawkeye laser system. I've used them a few times and both times once geo was corrected car drove WAY better and can't fault the service. Was about £70. Search for my old posts there will be a couple about it You can ask them to put it back to stock settings or add some -ve camber for a slightly more aggressive setup. Probably best to do some geo setup research first to match your driving style.
  2. viewtopic.php?t=64231 See here my man. Discussed in the thread above very recently. Rattley tailpipe weld I believe.
  3. Lol too right fantastic results and as you say shame but we lost on penalties.....again.
  4. Ha ha might have to print a few of those off and keep in the car!
  5. Car looking awesome and sounding awesome. The 350 really does have a fantastic sound.
  6. Option 3 for me mate. I'd go black upper half of car and green lower half of car. Then some black anthracite wheels would finish it off nicely. Really looks good what you've done so far!

    I run a fair bit of extra -ve camber so didn't want the back end becoming too lively I figured I'd rather have a car that understeers a little than tries to kill you every time you nail it in the dry. I am planning on trying the full stiff setting soon though.

  9. If it hasn't mate I will be interested.
  10. Love the medallion, if I didn't have a big bodywork bill this month I would have snapped it up. GLWS

    Awesome! Saw your car today at TOTB but sadly didn't see it running. Looked fantastic. Hope all is well and nothing has gone wrong.
  12. Ha ha you ain't the only one! Can't imagine the wheel bearings are going to be enjoying the 60mm spacers either. The loads are gonna be massive compared to design loads. Never been a fan of the veilside, looking forward to getting my 'kit' sorted.
  13. I think it's awesome. The start with the engineering and industrial revolution was pure class.
  14. I used a hair dryer and petrol. Hair dryer to soften everything so could pull the plate off then petrol to clean up the bumper of adhesive marks ..... Probably not great for the paint but the but my bumper is getting replaced soon
  15. That's the plan once this tenancy agreement is over. Hoping to buy somewhere with enough space to build a massive garage! I want at least a double with space for a work area.
  16. Nope not seen those but a visual deterrent is always a good thing in my eyes for the opportunists.
  17. Bloody hell hadn't realised it was a major issue with BMW's will make sure the mrs gets a steering lock ASAP.
  18. Thank you for the input guys really appreciate it. Decided the bummer gets the garage as we think it's probably more of a target due to the value. Even though the zed is a much better looking car lol.
  19. To be honest I was learning towards the Beemer. In terms of the cheaper quotes for the car being on the drive I think mine also came up cheaper last year when I looked. Will have to check insurance prices. Just seems to me someone would be more likely to want to steal a 21k car than a 7k car.
  20. Thoughts and opinions please folks. I recently moved in with the Girlfriend and when we were looking for a place I said I wanted a garage for the car. So we got a place with a single garage. At the time our lass drove a 106 independence so no need for that to be garaged. However the 106 has now gone to the scrapyard in the sky and she has just bought a brand new 1 Series BMW. We now can't decide who should get the garage. Reasons the zed should get it: Being a performance car it is likely to appeal to be stolen by joy riders. Also being a performance car it is likely to attract random vandalism. Reasons the BMW should get it: The car is worth a lot more than the zed. BMW and Audi seem to appeal to professional thieves for export from what I've read. Therefore being hidden is a benefit. Just wondered what others thoughts are? Cheers
  21. Yeah it is mate, not the greatest surface there to be fair.
