Salutations, one and all.
What sound advice from all!!! At 18 I was driving a Morris Minor with girlfriend ended up in a field, the opposite side, facing the wrong direction!!! Good thing about that? No oncoming traffic, no ditch, no lamp posts, no curbs, no road signs, no trees or hedgerows! BUT thats 40 odd years ago! That aint going to happen today in 2014 as our roads are very much diferent now! Every day I encounter bad drivers with bad driving habbits & I dont drive that far, drove my Z to the surgery (6 miles) & back. Not daily though. I would go for MX5 great fun car too. Good luck whatever you decide to do.

zed prices rising
IMHO I dont think prices have done anything! In britain we are badge snobs! I dont care about the price of my Z, only if it goes wrong:scared: Sure its not a Lambo or a Ferrari, but it gives me a great deal of pleasure:) & when we take the Z out how many glances do we get? Ive not seen another Z in Folkestone for more than 6 months! But seen 6 Ferrari's in that time:yes:

Lydd on sea!
Sorry I do not know what rear spoiler is on my Z? I just prefer the lower rap around type. It may well be a Navan type as Joely has said.

offside rear steering arm
Hi, my MOT advisory stated this steering arm (HICAS) had slight play. I have one to fit. Can someone tell me if I then need the rear steer alignment tested? Four wheel set up is it a Nissan dealer job?

Brakes!!!
Just a general question! Last Sunday coming back from Bromley I went past Parklangley Golf Club! Cars are parked each side & all the way to the top of the road, which has a sharp Left hand turn at the top! I get to the top & going into the bend when a 4x4 comes round the corner!:censored: I braked but not to a dead stop!:scared: Although In my oppinion he was going too fast, it was only his stopping power that stopped us hitting each other.:sweatdrop: So Why did Nissan put such poor brakes on the Z? & I understand why so many want to upgrade them as I do over the winter.
