.....daily drive that is!! I had (tentatively) been thinking about a new daily driver recently; and after a hectic week I took a peek at MB's "approved used" 'site yesterday. And by chance I found the one for me!! Palladium silver; 3.5 litres and 305bhp; 0-62 in 5.4 secs.... ...plus every conceivable extra including COMMAND multi-media with navigation/CD changer/DAB radio; heated nappa leather; bi-xenons; 7-speed tip with paddle-shift and the AMG sport suspension/wheel pack:drool: Plus I got 2 years free servicing, 6 months tax and an extended warranty for when the manufacturers one expires! It's miles away from me though; however a quick cal…

just wondering

Are engine lifts ok on unlevel ground? I know its not ideal. Using a trolley jack its a little scary on the slope I have as two wheels lift on the jack. As an engine lift is alot heavier are they ok on a small slope? Heres a pic of my unlevel bit you can see the incline from the way the tent frame is.

anyone else up watching the qually?:scooter: excuse smiley, it was either that or a boat one. we need more car smileys!!:wheelchair:

Well, in the past week I finally purchased a car I have craved for a while, a 996 911. I haven't posted on here for a long time, but I still lurk around reading posts. My point in posting was to just say that I shall be raising a glass this evening to....................................... the Z32. Yes that is right! When I sat in the car and drove it, do you know what the first thing was that came into my head? "This feels just like the Z!" and I grinned ear to ear. The 911, feels to me, almost identical to the way my old Z drove, it even smells the same lol. The seats are very similar, the handling is very similar, the steering, the power, the gear box, pretty much…

Surly this is a mistake for a pair of 501 bulbs or am i missing somthing :turned: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nissan-300ZX-3-LED-SideLight-Bulb-no-canbus-error-/180538313639?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2a08ec0ba7

Our chocolate Lab that is:dance:, she had a scan yesterday and is carrying at least 4 pups. She is due November 3rd so we will have them all running around over Christmas! :clap::clap:

Just back from ????? the odeon, yip couldn't resist seeing this classic again, I thought that seeing this would be fun and I was right !! Even though I knew every bit of the plot I still loved this film to bits ! It's a must for all fans to [ Go Back in Time !! ] and see ! I've already pre ordered the blue ray special edition due out next month! Just hope the release them all back at the flixs !!

2 weeks to go until I'm off to the Maldives (again LOL!) :hyper::dance::hyper::dance:

in the nick of time before Zedward gets SORNed for winter 98 Honda Prelude 2.2 vtec - pretty fully loaded, full leathers, air con, cruise control etc - fingers crossed its a decent car! J

Is it just me or do they all just have a random number generator to give quotes?! Thought Flux were supposed to me specialists in imported/modded/fast cars - quoted me THREE TIMES what More Than quoted me via confused.com. FFS!! I'm am as old as god and have been driving yonks, and yes Marc is a lot younger and not as much driving experience but neither of us has ever claimed/got any points etc. Cannot see where they get these figures from! Best quote so far fully comp is £611 which is a bit eye watering but better than almost £2k which most of these rip off merchants want to charge! :cursing::cursing::cursing::cursing::cursing:

just brought some off ebay rushed out after work while theres a little light left to fit them like an excited child. well disappointed, the rubber surround doesnt fit properly and the loom connector is useless. so much for plug and play

well i got my "UNIVERSAL" washer bottle through today and alas didnt fit anywhere in the car. i eventually had to make a cage for it out of clothes hangers and mount it on a bar that goes from the wheel arch to the bumper just behind the cover why does universal mean fits nothing whithout some imagination????

Guys I bought an xbox a few days ago, I had one a few years back got fed up with it and threw it on ebay. Anyhows I love shoot em ups.. just done modern warfare, 1 &2, and the new Halo game. I did all the old medal of Honor games when I had my last xbox. I got a sniper game and Hawx 2 but not really got on with them any other suggestions for a bit of shoot em up action?

Got a picture going to auction this month , its a sketch by a bloke called Carl Plackman , he was an artist,and an apprentice of Damion Hurst, cant seem to get the picture to load on here , ,its done in pencil and is done as to show some one in court saying not guilty / guilty ,standing on a airplane wing, 3ft by 2ft his pictures don't come on sale very often ,and its expected to fetch between £2500 and £3500 could be more if two people want it ,money is for my son not the zed lol . so who can guess the nearest price i get ,

Bit desperate as im driving a long way 2mow morning and i can only find top brand tyres which are too expensive, i need a budget tyre or even if someone is breaking a smart car and has a spare wheel with a used tyre. Anything goes :) Let me know 07915608451

Hi everyone, at last i have yet another quick car, its not a zed but its just what I was looking for, its quick, smooth, handles lovely, not bad on fuel and has four doors, can anyone guess what it is?

Just heard this on the news. Loved watching his films when I was a kid. A genius of comic timing. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-11473192 RIP.

I really wanted some wheels off ebay, but they were over 350 miles away and the seller wouldn't allow me to send a courier :saddam: So in steps Dan, goes to collect them for me and allowed me to arrange a courier to collect the wheels from his place. Without you Dan I wouldn't have had a chance in hell of getting them, so thank you VERY MUCH!!! :bow: :bow: :flowers: I'm sure you'll agree that is the perfect example of what this club is all about. :thumbup1: oh and BTW here's the wheels :shuriken: cant fit them properly until my 4.5" lift kit arrives :sweatdrop:

My mrs has just bought a new Horse in Newmarket and she needs to collect it on Tuesday and get it back to Southampton. We have a 7.5 Ton horsebox Iveco Eurocargo that she drives but she needs someone to share the driving with her who is used to driving 7.5 Ton stuff. Happy to pay say £100 to come along and split the driving, its about 150 miles each way so probably take 5-6 hrs to do. I have to work :cursing: anyhows long shot but thought I would just ask as there might be an out of work driver around.

Mine arrived yesterday, what a fantastic little gizmo even managed to download the entire 300zx service manual to it :thumbup:. Has anyone else got one?
