LOL.....:biggrin:

Like it......:cool:

Many happy returns mate!! Richard:happybday:

If you're referring to the Evans stuff, it's been around a while and does appear to be highly respected...... ......My opinion, therefore, is not regarding whether it works; but whether it's actually worth the cost when compared to regular water/antifreeze mix in a car that I don't use every day! Richard:cool:

Yup - Happy birthday indeed JB...:thumbup:

Thanks for your continued support Alex...... .....And nice work Lee:wink: Richard:thumbup:

Yes and yes - what they said......:wink: Thing is, there can be many smaller, lesser patronised, car shows up and down the country; that the REOs may never be aware of.... However if any of those do catch the odd member's interest, then please do either PM your local REO - or post a thread in the regional events pages for your REO and other members within your region to see! Richard:cool:

LOL - yeah; they were all the rage with the kids in the 1980s....:rofl: I lost count of how many Cortinas and Mk2 Escorts were adorned with those monstrosities at the time!!! Ahhhhh, the days of Motorists' Discount Centre....:lol:

Many happy returns Tom - have a great day mate!! Richard:happybday:

Yes and yes.......:wink:

Not yet..... Mainly because the only winter tyres I can find in the right (rear) size for my SLK are Pirelli Sotozeros (or something like that) - and at over £320 each, I reckon I'll soldier on with normal tyres. Just like I have done since passing my test back in 1987!! As for your X5, it seems like so many big 4x4s nowadays, BMW choses to fit summer tyres on over-sized pimp-daddy wheels. I noticed the same thing when I had an ML350cdi on test last year. Land Rover still fits "all terrain" tyres on the Freelander 2 - and Julia's Rav is also fitted with such things too; so perhaps if one does have an SUV, it might indeed be best to do what you have said above!! Richard:cool:

Welcome back Nick - and, on behalf of all our members currently looking for a 300zx, thanks for the heads up on that blue one. Just goes to show that the camera does lie sometimes!! Richard:cool:

Yup - as Gay says, behind the scenes we're booking the venue and making sure we have everything in place for JAE 2015. It is indeed a new venue - easier for some, perhaps harder for others; but this year, there's no clash with any other major events...... Please do register your interest folks - whilst this is not the only major event the club is hosting in 2015, we still want to make it a success for everyone in attendance!! Richard:cool:

A belated happy birthday Tony...!! Richard:thumbup:

I still like this one - I hope it goes to a good home.....:clover:

I can understand some peoples' reluctance to disclose reg numbers to potential buyers - but TBH if you were up to no good yourself, you could still always go view the car and obtain the reg number at the time anyway. If I was buying, and the car was a fair few miles from me, I might want to do the relevant HPI checks etc before travelling - if only to save me a wasted trip. So if the seller would not disclose the reg number, I might just cross his car off my list and move on.....

Yup - what he said..... There is no such thing as a "Veilside-made 300zx" it's just a regular car with loads of plastic bits stuck on.....!! Not necessarily - if the bodywork and engine are sound (buy on condition rather than mileage and modifications); then you can always remove any bolt-on [ahem] items that are not to your taste and replace with OEM. With the (bulk of the) newest of these cars now knocking on 20 years old, it is more important to ensure the body is sound and rust-free; and that the engine/turbos/drivetrain have no impending, latent issues. If all is otherwise well, you can negotiate the price down and then deal with the cosmetic bits to suit your own preferences! Richard:cool:

Good luck with your new purchase Joel.... Richard:cool:

Indeed.....:sad: Not to mention that the seller cannot spell "manual"......:lol:

Front fogs matey, not headlights...:wink:

Oops I got here late..... ....Happy Easter everybody....:blush:

Welcome to the club mate!!

Today - nothing - but yesterday I gave it a good clean inside and out..... ....I decided to take my Zed to Cornwall last week and, having covered around 800 miles, it was covered in all kinds of road grime and crap. As usual, the Zed did not miss a beat - the only pain was the fuel cost - but it was worth it....:wink: Richard:cool:

Ditto - hopefully it's just minor cosmetic..... And that the van driver (or his insurers) pay up quickly mate:sad:

Welcome to the club mate - you have come to the right place for 300zx advice!! Richard:clover::thumbup:
