Windshield greasing up
If it's inside, then the simplest thing to do first is give it a thorough clean with a very good glass cleaner once a week. You'd be surprised how much mist and gunk accumulates during a week of driving; especially as autumn and winter set in!!! I find the ZX's ventilation system is normally very good at demisting the inside of the screen; much better than my Merc!!! I do also keep the a/c on all year round too - which helps as it acts as a dehumidifier. You could also treat the interior glass with a good demist agent - Bluecol works well for me; don't bother with Rain-X as I found that just made things worse!! Outside, give the glass a clean with methylated spirit - along with the wiper blades - and then once again polish with a high quality glass cleaner once a week. My favourites are Autoglym Fast Glass, Meguairs Perfect Clarity or Mer - the last 2 also contain limited anti-misting agents to help stop the interior steaming up. Richard:cool:

25 Years of the Z32
Ahem - sadly, it was this year....:blush: Exactly Steve - JAE, Zedfest, Japfest etc come and go every year. Whilst we can have a bit of an extra promotion of the Z32's silver anniversary at each event next year, we do intend to hold a separate, stand-alone event just to celebrate the marque's 25th.....

Help the heroes - club ideas
Just my initial thoughts mate, I don't mean to sound negative..... I am all for the club doing some charity work; and hopefully it should also bring a few members together for a good cause as well:wink:

Help the heroes - club ideas
Nice idea Harby - anything to help the good folks who do a great job defending our country is a winner in my book mate:thumbup: I do feel that Lexx has a point there though - not to mention that a sponsored drive is actually going to cost people money with a tank of fuel running in at almost £100 for a 300zx; which is good for about 250-300 miles........ By that rationale, some might be better off just handing the fuel money over to the charity instead of fuelling their car to participate in the drive. Sorry if that's negative - I was just thinking of the other side of the coin:boat: Richard:flowers:

Running your own business
Good luck Anthony.... With £70k turnover and 38% GP, that would have only left £26-£27k to cover overhead expenses and your wife's own wages; so I hope the new figures stack up mate!! As said, do feel free to call me if you'd like any advice:wink: Richard:thumbup:

Ahhh - I thought I recognised the car from the other thread about it being up for sale!! Sounds like it could possibly be a car dealer (or at least a part time trader) looking to move it on for a little extra profit....:shifty: Richard:detective:

Running your own business
If you're buying an existing business, do make sure you investigate the financial side fully before taking the plunge. Get a good accountant on board to conduct a due diligence to ensure you stand a good chance of recovering your investment..... Maintaining the books is easy, depending on the size and complexity of the business... Then I would say that having once been a tax manager in an accountancy practice - although I have been away from public practice for 9 years now:wink: I'll PM you my number if you would like to discuss it sometime, Good luck Anthony, Richard:thumbup:
