Wonderful, why do I bother
Hard luck mike, nothing worse than someone doing this then fookin off. Car parks are nitemares tho arent they , ppl getting out and banging their door straight into the side of your car or worse driving into it! Best to avoid them like the plague !

police 0-1 me!
Just got back from weston super mare, a sneaky copper nearly had me :nono: I was going along a dual carriageway with a silly 30mph speed limit, no one else around and was doin 45, then my detector starts shoutin 'lazer lazer'! I hit the brakes straight away and crawled along at 30, and sure enough about 1/3 mile up the road a sneaky coppers arm was pointing at me from behind a post with a radar gun! I gave him a big smile as i passed lol :D Had the detector about a year and its the 1st time its saved me, bless it :hyper:

A political debate - I know how you like them ;o)
Mark , you do sound strongly homophobic tho , Cant imagine where you get your statistics from?? lol IMO It doesnt matter that the copper in the article is gay, who gives a ****, what matters is that he has no sense of humour, no common sense at all, and appears to be one of labours nanny society political correcties, and these ppl are obtaining positions of power and influence, that is scary. On newsnight the other night , Paxman was arguing with some black female MP who was insisting drivers who break the speed limit are comparable to muggers , rapists, burglars etc, and should be made to pay more for their crimes. And this women is an MP representing us ! She may be intelligent but FFS she has no basic common sense what so ever, its dangerous with ppl like this in power.

hypnosis to cure bad habbits?
Ive got mates who've given up thru hypnosis too. The power of the sub conscious mind is amazing, innit. Helps not just smoking but depression , anxiety, phobias etc. Just now, think of a lemon - a nice juicy fresh lemon and cut it in half and sink ya teeth in - taste the bitter juice? Feel any saliva in ya mouth? The power of thought. God what am i goin on about! hehe

Heating??
Hi Ajay, it doesnt do that on our older models :-) Mines a '90 and fan has high or low. Set at 40 degrees you wont get any air flow thru the centre vents tho ccrxxx, so ya feet will boil and your hands will freeze! Econ switches off air con so saves juice yes, but all the windows steam up! as they do on 'rec' too.

Weird Problem at high revs in 5th gear

Weird Problem at high revs in 5th gear
Hey mike, like u said cant be slipping clutch, revs would pick up not drop. Ive neva driven a manual Z , do they have a lock up or some sorta overdrive in 5th gear over certain revs?
-
Heating??
Hi mate, The aircon works by pressing 'auto', simple! Press 'econ' to switch off aircon. 'rec' is recirculated air if you dont want fresh air from outside the cabin. The computer decides where to direct air flow on earlier models, depending on the temperature setting. Pain in the arse innit! Ive found if you set the temp to more than 20 degrees above the ambient temp the airflow goes to feet and slightly to windscreen, nothing form the middle vents. Set the temp to 20 degrees or less than the ambient temp to get air out the middle vents too. Got it ?!! :-)

Thinking about a new back box.....
Think they look great but... anything over 3.5 to 4 inch tailpipes looks a bit OTT and tacky IMO.
