  1. Had an Audi s5 for the last few years, does over 30mpg has room for the dogs as it’s the sport back version but still has over 400bhp (been remapped) so can take me 0-60 in just under 4 seconds with the unofficial launch control Upto around 175mph so it’s a good all rounder for me. Not really found another car apart from the Alfa giulia that ticks the boxes so maybe next year or dare I say it electric ?
  2. Morning all, not been on for along time!! Spent many years of my life and money here but have some great memories. Hope everyone’s ok? I still love my fast cars and although more sensible nowadays I still miss my zeds ?
  3. Yes, always bugged me about Chris as I was good friends with him and he just vanished on the earth - - - Updated - - - Chris was the best after he managed to blag his way onto a different ferry without a passport hahaha
  4. Hiya buddy Just busy with life, been divorced and married again moved 4 times, renovated a house, bought a v10 rs6 and currently sat in a hotel in Brugge :-) how about you bud? Still roofing?
  5. One of my all time favourite weeks away in 2006 with my fellow zedders Popped into my head as I'm in Brugge at the moment and found the same bar we were all sat outside all night and the barman is still there and remembered us all :-)
  6. I pop in now and again and still alive :-) Funny enough about to post something
  7. So sorry to hear this, not been on for years but always sad to lose a zed family member. RIP Mandy out thoughts are with your family X
  8. The wierd thing is i have reset this laptop dozens of times as my son is always putting crap on it but for some reason it wont work this time!? the disc i am using is the original toshiba boot disc with win 7 on by the way so it should work but it wont? stupid thing is going out the window soon!!
  9. Hi Guys Long time no see hahahaha I have been lurking around ;) I am hoping for some IT help? my son decided to format his laptop as it was running very slow so put the recovery disk in and booted it up, it goes through the motions and fomats the drives but gets to 16% and then errors out for wont go any further?? Is it knackered or can something be done as its driving me crackers!? It runs Win 7 and is a Toshiba Beer for anyone than can help fix it for me. Cheers Mike
  10. I bought it from a guy in the north east who never really used it and to be fair i got it pretty cheap so i did a few jobs on it and sold it on to someone down london way? i'm pretty sure he sold it and bought another one and is a member on here but that was a while ago :)
  11. i am still around ;) what can i do to help Lee?
  12. I have just received these FOC from Peugeot today and to be honest i didnt know i was gonna get any and i cant make it, would have love to have gone but i move house on the day!! So first come first serve i have 2 tickets to the 30th June and free refreshments on the Peugeot stand, you may have to say your me for that lol These are free but who ever wants them MUST be able to attend at its close to the date and i will post them out first class today. http://www.goodwood.co.uk/festival-of-speed/welcome.aspx Cheers Mike
  13. ive tried them all and by far the iphone is streets ahead of everything on the market and with the massive range of apps nothing is ever going to touch it!! now they have sorted the camera out on the iphone 4 its pretty damn perfect ;)
  14. ive always found bose to be over priced!! can get much better equipment that sounds much better for half the price!!
  15. some systems have this ability to run a couple of different zones but mainly on dedicated amps, you can have a streaming system which would work well or depending on budget you can go for a full on room by room system
  16. This is its problem, spec wise theres nothing to touch it but if you have say 70k burning a hole in your pocket would you buy a Ferrari 360, lambo gallardo, audi R8, porsche 911 turbo or a nissan gtr!? Thats always going to be its issue and even though i love them and have driven a couple i dont know if i had that kind of money that i would buy one, yes that makes me a snob but if i was gonna spend 70k on a car then yeah i would be a snob lol But saying that they have now dropped below the £40k mark and i would guess by the end of the year the R35 and R34 will be similar prices!! and for £30k there will be nothing on the road that could touch it Mike
  17. i saw that for sale a few weeks ago, was about £15k then and looked a little rough for the mileage so someone has obviously bought it and cleaned it up lol
  18. Thought i'd stick my 2 peneth in lol As most of you know ive had one or two zeds!! Ive paid £10k for one and ive paid peanuts for one and many in between!! Is the black swb worth £13k?? no not really but then again a friend of mine was quite happy to offer jason £15k for his at jae!! is jasons worth 15k no not really but a car is worth what someones willing to pay for it? He will need to get someone who falls in love with it to pay that premium but in todays market he will struggle!! i could have had this years ago for £8k i think it was and i seriously thought about it and prices certainly have not gone up so unless its got serious (and not ebay) power under the bonnet then he's got bob hope and no hope and bobs dead!! Shame as its a lovely car and if it had been at £8k again i think he might have sold it but imho £5k over priced!! you can get a fully built tuned R33 gtr for that kind of outlay and as much as i love zeds i know what i'd buy Mike
  19. yeah its really nice and a good 500 bhp car with rebuilt engine!! that would be under 10k on the road over here i would imagine, speak to jurgen at jm imports buddy Mike
  20. i did see a 2001 model in blue a few days ago with 20k on the clock!! was about £15k though lol i like this http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w54272578 would change a few things but overall i love the look of it!! would love that sat on my drive. Mike
  21. with the exchange rates being so crap its not worth it imho at the moment but i do look but a half decent one your looking at 6-7k over here at the moment, i keep looking for a nice 99 spec one but there over 10k still!!
  22. I would say 99% its not a straight cut/dog box as 7 or 8 years ago you would struggle to get one for the 300zx, in fact i only know of ppg that do one for it and i'm not sure they did that long ago!! you would know if it was a dog box as they are really really noisy!! i would imagine if its a manual box it was just rebuilt and they have beefed it up on the invoice to charge more? Mike
  23. Looks a good price for the spec and more than enough for me to do pretty much anything?
  24. I thought that, i have looked at them and they do look cool but over priced!! Seen this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Dell-Studio-XPS-15-Laptop-2-93-i7-8GB-500-2GB-NVIDIA-/290521553445?pt=UK_Computing_Laptops_EH&hash=item43a46f1a25 What do you recon?
