Car covers: An alternate view with GTR pics too.
Funny you mentioned the paint issue,I know a guy with an R35 and hes taking Nissan to court,its black and peppered with stone chips.He had the paint measured and he said its the thinest coating permissable,his words not mine,anyhows Nissan blew out complaint about getting it repainted under warranty so hes taking legal action !!

New MOT certificate...not
I agree a paper certificate is pointless but some people still dont have a computer like some older folk or poorer families.The costs for the old paperwork must have been boatloads.Im wondering if the mot will be cheaper now :huh: yeah right !! I agree that its good to prevent people losing the advisory certificate to pass on vehicles with potential defects looming though.That loophole needed fixing years ago.

Hometown Z but with Lambo doors!!
Its a 98 model so should command a higher price.It would be about right if some muppet had not violated it with lambo doors.Id pay 8k for a zed thats only 13 years old as opposed to my 20 year old .

Prolly as Mikey says the centre bearing or maybe the props mis aligned.

Fuel saver
All from "electrical stabilisation" Stronger spark giving better burn in the combustion chamber.Sounds GREAT doesnt it.One guy got 3 mpg more he claimed,oh ffs please give me strength.Bet there are people dumb enough to buy one though.Im a firm believer in the fact that as already stated if it was that easy car makers would have fitted it by now.

Fuel saver
What a load of rubbish that looks.surely it doesnt really plug into a ciggy lighter like it looks ?? As my ole man always said "A fool and his money are soon parted".Its bad that tat like that is available and legal really :thumbdown: Id love to hear the spill on how it reduces fuel use :smartass:

Retro Stratus V6 or new V8?
I found a thema V8 on pistonheads.The car was a rotter but what a motor.I remember seeing one years ago in the 80.s.Rare old motor.With a cracking engine.A real street sleeper.I also have a soft spot for the strada 105tc and 130 Abarth.Typical Italian motors.Full of passion and flare but just would not stand the test of time.Either way you have to love them.Lambos,ferrari,s are all the same.This is why Merc and Porsche have done so well.Power with reliability.But imho just dont always have the soul of an Italian car.No more 037 pics my pants cant take it !!

Retro Stratus V6 or new V8?
A road going 037,thats rarer than rocking horse shit !! what a car .Any delta integrales on the same site you found that .Not in the same league but checked how many left for 131 fiats ,especially the miafiora 2.0 twin cam.I couldnt find any.I loved them back in the day.
-
Retro Stratus V6 or new V8?
Its not really a fair comparison.No v6 sounds as good as a v8.The v8 is a road car so has road exhausts,put a works system on it like the 70,s models had in the video and the poll result would be way different im sure :punk:
