General Discussions - Non 300ZX

Being an admirer of most thing Japanese, (hence my passion for the 300ZX), I decided to bite the bullet and buy 3 chefs knives that I have lusted after for some time now. Long term, I hope to build up a range to suit my basic needs. (will probably end up with a set of 7 knives) I am no buddy chef or anything, just a lover of quality and craftsmanship, and could not resist sharing some photos for those who might have similar likes. Basically, they are a high carbon blade wrapped in a stainless outer case, you can see from the photos where the 60 Rockwell hardened blade is visible at the cutting edge. The balance is excellent and the highly honed cutting edge is frig…

just thought i'd share this vid with you lot. there seems to be a nice zed in there at about the 1.57 minute mark :thumbup: the zed is definately the best part of the video but there are a few amusing bits.

As well as the Z, what other toys have people got? He's my first love.. A MK2 Zetec XR2 And here she is tucked up for winter :-) Roll on next spring!

Probably a REEEEEEEE-POST and old but made me laugh... And is sadly too true!

Following on from my rant the other day about selling nurburgrings on ebay and being messed about, last night I sold my Merc S430, had 112 watchers and a few bidders, the winner bid a couple of times yesterday just before auction, I emailed them to congratulate them and ask when they would be picking the car up and reminding them of the request for £200 deposit within 24 hours and $received no reply.... Just logged in this morning to get an email from them saying they bought it as a birthday present for their husband but last night found out its a diesel he is after and apologises and said she wished she'd asked before she bid. Fuming this morning. So much for c…

I'm looking in a few months in buying a new daily driver, dunno what I should go for though?? I won't have a huge amount to spend, maybe 3k, have been looking at BMW 330d and merc clk too, I want something with all the bells and whistles, and relatively economical, just don't know what I fancy, would like something a bit nicer to haul about in, I realise it going to be somewhere between a 2000-2004 car.....any ideas guys???

I've got a corrugated roof on my garage and its getting on my nerves, on the inside of the roof the amount of condensation that builds up is unbelievable it's drips everywhere n makes everything inside wet, Now is there anything I can apply to the roof to stop this, don't really wanna have to put a new roof on to stop this Cheers in advance Paul

Early this week my works manager turned up in his new car, It's only a Mercedes SLK 350!! (auto by the way) Can't bring my self to ask him about performance etc'. Suffice to say he has taken great pleasure in telling me how much quicker the thing is compared to my Z !!!! Anybody know much about them? not that I care you understand. (not)

thanks for listening, that is all.

Hi guys,can I pick your brains. Got ran up the back of my daily drive,my vectra c. It didnt do too much damage, crumpled the bumper around the reg plate a bit. Stupidly agreed to bypass the insurance and didnt report the accident to the police. Got a quote of £570 which he thought was too much so got a second and it was £9 cheaper. I know he is trying to get out of paying but where do i stand legally? I havnt tried my insurance company yet(AXA) but it is now 7 weeks since it happened. I know where he works and have his reg no. but he wont give me his home address or insurance company. Am I screwed???

Thought this might be of interest to some on here looks well done but just got to ask why http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=181031292012
