Think we may fall into that category Quote
martinmac Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Think the fact that you are asking the question on here Stuey may be the deciding factor My wife definately thinks so, Although my girlfriend is quite cool about it Quote
mbs Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 When I'm not in the Zed I'm on the end of a railway platform with a notebook. Quote
Beavis Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I suppose we are anoraks to a point, but it would be a boring world if we were all the same. But i bet alot of people who see us on the Wales drive out in May would want to be us, anoraks or not.............when they see the fun we are having in our zeds Quote
Stew Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I am. Not just Zeds either. I like cars in general. I like to think of myself as a complete petrol head as I prefer this term to anorak. Louis will be dissapointed this isn't a fashion thread.....b:P Quote
GIXXERUK Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 we're not anoraks !!! only reason i looked at this thread was because i thought it was for 350z uk anoraks Quote
Andy Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Good to meet you too mate! I went for a little tunnel run after we left last night! As for anoraks though, the more I think about it, the more I think we are! Quote

Zedrush Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Patience Gix, you have one Hmm 350z sandals With matching Zed socks. And the Zed car hawian shirt! PMSL Adams purchased them already Quote
GIXXERUK Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 just because we mix with fellow minded owners and write about our cars and take pics and go around spotting them and do a daily check on ebay for "350z" and polish and wash them .... oh forget it ..... we need therapy 350z = ocd Quote
stanski Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 just because we mix with fellow minded owners and write about our cars and take pics and go around spotting them and do a daily check on ebay for "350z" and polish and wash them .... oh forget it ..... we need therapy 350z = ocd +1 Whats worse is some of us dont even have one yet!!!

NWZ Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 When I clean my car I use autosol to finish off the exhausts, I guess that makes me an anorak! I don't care, but just imagine how obsessed we would be if we all had the new GT-R..... Quote

Sarnie Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Hundreds of people in one place talking about one subject imo are rightly called anoraks. I'm not afraid to call myself an anorak but not to just one car but cars in general Why does the word 'anorak' project negative connotations? I would deem an anorak to be highly knowledgable Quote
stanski Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 Why does the word 'anorak' project negative connotations? I would deem an anorak to be highly knowledgable Sire you are correct in your assumptions - unfortunately when Enthusiasts are interviewed on the telly they always appear to be wearing bobble hats look like they still live with their Mothers and have bad facial hair - bang on about Steam engines..... Nothing like typecasting people! Quote
NWZ Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 they always appear to be wearing bobble hats look like they still live with their Mothers and have bad facial hair Did you secretly spy on us in Bala last year? Quote
stanski Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Did you secretly spy on us in Bala last year? Doh!! You've sussed me out! I was that funny looking tree that used to move about in the car park! Quote
stanski Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Forgot to mention do you know we have steam engines in Bury (oh yes that Black 5 is very interesting.......... ) Actually its part of Bury's modern transport network infrastructure we are always up to the minute here you know - look out 1940's here we come - Quote
Pingu2 Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 I prefer to be called a "geek" than an anorak thanks! Quote
