General Discussions - Non 300ZX

I've been calling round for insurance and trying to get some cover for all the cash I've spent on my Z without much luck :( The best price I've had is on a classic policy with Heritage/Norton Insurance limited to 3000 miles a year for £347 It's a low limit but I doubt I do much more than that averaged over the last 4 years breakdowns! They offer an agreed value for the car and asked me what it's worth. I think to replace the car as it is would cost me about £14K. They said but it's only worth £3K so no chance and that would be subject to a valuation by the Z Club LOL! How is that an agreed valuation for a classic car? If i'm prepared to pay to insure it …

and it rains, o well sure looks good under all that water :)

Evening insomniacs ;) Fitted my new rad today - yay!! I shall go to the ball...err...Billing :cool; :D I went out for a spin to make sure everything is okay, and to fill up with Optimax. Halfway there it starts raining - no problem I thought, flicking the wipers on - but nothing :eek: Then I remembered the wiper arms are in my shed drying after i resprayed them the other day! :eek: :D. Looking good incidentally... ;) Luckily the rain was only a quick spattering so I got home ok, phew! ;) And no water leaks!!!! Get in!! :D:D Pete

Hi All, Anyone else have problems with getting their knees under the steering wheel? I'm about 6'2" - how do the likes of Herman Munster cope with the cramped conditions which were obviously intended to our little oriental cousins...? I noticed Mac1 has one of those steering wheels that looks like it's been hammerred flat at the bottom - do these help? I only really have a problem when it comes to braking in a hurry - that's the last time you want to have a problems though... It doesn't help that I've just had a hip resurfaced I guess....;) Cheers!

So anyway this ment had to get home get changed and get to work in about 20mins!! anyway near home i have a stretch of my private test track that is a single carrige way road with a few long winding bends with hills on one side and a farm on the other. So i was merrily tanking along this stretch of said track at a ton when going calmly round a corner to be greeted by a sodding COW stood in the road there big buggers when closing on ya at 100mph managed to slow down and go round with out hitting it but would of made one hell …
