Fresh Coleman Balls!
Some old favourites and some new ones "Sure, there have been deaths in boxing but none of them serious." (Alan Minter) "And this is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning and it was amazing!" (Pat Glenn - weightlifting commentator) "Andrew Mehrtens loves it when Darryl Gibson comes inside of him." (New Zealand rugby commentator Murray Mexted) "This is really a lovely horse. I once rode her mother." (Ted Walsh - horse racing commentator) "I've never had major knee surgery on any other part of my body." (Winston Bennett) "The lead car is absolutely unique, except for the one behind it, which is identical." (Murray Walker - F1 racing commentator) "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my father and mother." (Greg Norman) "If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again." (Terry Venables - Soccer Coach) "I would not say that David Ginola is the best left winger in the Premiership, but there are none better." (Ron Atkinson - soccer coach) "Ah, isn't that nice. The wife of the Cambridge president is kissing the cox of the Oxford crew." (Harry Carpenter at the Oxford-Cambridge boat race 1977) "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field" (Metro Radio) "Strangely, in slow motion replay, the ball seems to hang in the air for even longer."

What have I just said?!!!" (US PGA Commentator) "For those of you who are watching in black and white, the blue is behind the brown" (Ted Lowe, Snooker commentator) True story... a female news anchor who, the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn't, turned to the weatherman and asked "So Bob, where's that 8 inches you promised me last night?" Not only did HE have to leave the set, but half the crew did too as they were laughing so much.

While I'm writing - whats the upside down dome shaped black plastic thing hanging down from the back of the t-bar? Just behind the interior light. Its got sponge inside it :confused: . Think I've nearly exhausted my questions now LOL! Pete

Funny noise
No - performance wise it kicks ass :D :cool: :D , other than a few hesitation probs when hot which I've put down to a loose temp sensor connector - I'm getting a connector clip for this as it keeps coming loose :rolleyes: . I'll have a proper listen for the noise. Cheers Pete

Funny noise
No not funny ha ha, funny wierd :D. Sounds like a fan being turned on and off, coming from the back/underside of the car when idling warm. Any ideas? Cheers Pete

Using cruise control
Ha ha :D ! BTW Congrats on post number 100 mate! What happened to all the rest?
-
Using cruise control
No, it is still limited. Cant see why you'd use it over 70 LOL! ;) Unless you were in Germany etc! My plan is to restrict myself to 70 on motorways, too easy to speed otherwise :rolleyes: . Pete
-
Using cruise control
Yeah good point, anyone know? Just a thought - sticking the "hold" button on whilst in 4th on fast roads should improve economy cos then the autobox wont change down when you speed up. Esp on long motorway journeys. Does cruise control work with hold ? :) Pete

Zed Owners....
I did - LOL! :D Pete

Using cruise control
Wow! I need it to work now just to experience that! Knightrider springs to mind :D :D :D Will give it a try later on thanks mate Cheers Pete
-
Using cruise control
Aha - I'll try the "set" button. I'm sure I must have tried it before :confused: Do any of the buttons make a noise or anything to indicate they work? The steering wheel is a Momo one, but the center piece was retained. Cheers Pete

Using cruise control
Hey all My Import has cruise control, but it doesn't seem to work. I've got 3 buttons on the steering wheel "Acc", err can't remeber the other 2, but these don't seem to do anything:confused: . What do they mean? The CC button on the console makes a green "cruise control" indicator light up on the dash when pressed, also another "cruise" green light has been on at some point, though I can't remember how i did it :rolleyes: :) . Shouldn't i just have to press the CC console button then it should stick to the speed i'm doing? This doesn't happen, it decelerates. Is there a diagnostic I can do? Cheers for any input people Pete

Proud new Z owner
Yeah I get the "heavy on fuel" comments too - I just tell myself they are jealous and that's the only thing they can knock :D . I get about 40-45 miles to the quarter on A-Roads to and from work. Pete
