I do like that rear bumper - it just finishes off the standard look without being OTT. Front is OK but I still think the 99-spec is the best looking front end :bow: Richard :smw:

Coz the sun is shining and we all have Zeds to drive around in :bow: Richard :D

Love to - she's fekking stunning :bow: :bow:

I've seen one on a SWB - makes the car look kind of like a Lotus Esprit at the rear, which is not necessarily a bad thing. However I wouldn't do it to a LWB at all for the reason stated above. Anyway I prefer the sleek look the rear screen gives the car, not the "cut-of XJS" look of the tub. If you like it, that's all that matters. Richard :smw:

Hey all Just used the Parker's link from Exchange & Mart and the WhatCar link from Auto trader to value our Corsa, which we are planning to get rid of. It's a 2000 W reg 1.4 sport 16v (top of the range) with 50k miles FSH (we've owned it for 5 years), air con etc etc and the TOP dealer price says £2600 - private sale around £2395. YET, when I look at cars for sale in both E&M and Auto Trader there are basic 1.0 and 1.2 models (without even electric windows) the same age and mileage being offered for sale at £3,500 :confused: That's not just the odd few - it seems to be the going rate - anything between £3-3500 FFS..... Thing is my receptionist at work would like it but after checking the so-called price guides, then seeing what price they are actually being advertised at I have no idea how much to ask for it. :rant: Anyway - does anyone want a nice, tidy reliable daily driver........ ;) See http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=65506 Richard :D

Do have to agree with Si (again! - this is becoming a habit :mac1: ) We all have keyboards so surely it is easier to type the whole words...... .....sure is easier to read when typed properly ;) Richard :x:

Yay, nice one mate ;) Be careful with those Devon lasses though - more interbred than the hovis family........ :rofl: Richard :D

Looking good Jay Richard :smw:

Zed (of course) beer chocolate and Julia - although not necessarily in that order...... ......and in general, the female breasts. Can't beat them for an awsome view :bow: Richard :D

I agree with Vini there....... .....feck computer games, I was out playing with real girls as a kid ;) :hyper: Did enjoy the odd play on a space invaders machine though, then later on defender was pretty cool....... But that could not compare to a pert young lady :bow: Richard :D

PCV valves? Richard :D

Not me mate...... .....would be interested to know if there's another red zedder locally though.... Richard :cool:

Can't she have your red one? Richard :)

Love it :rofl: :rofl: Kinda true though - there are certainly more fat birds out there these days than there were when I was younger........ :tongue: Richard :x:

May do, but I reckon they may be too narrow for the ZX. Richard :)

Director of finance for the UK's premier disabled access platform lift supplier. And no shameless link to my company's website........... :tongue:

Honda s2000 today - no chance :tongue: Richard

Hey SI, Sorry to hear that :( Your Z is too good and should be saved! Could Z-tech not do the re-build for you? Must be a better bet than taking a chance buying a 2nd hand engine elsewhere.... Good luck Richard :)

I would not normally respond either as my views on this sort of thing are normally just kept to myself (as I do not follow the path of ANY mainstream religion) ..... ....however: I'm not a racist (my wife is Asian before anyone suggests otherwise) but firstly and most important, if I condemn Islam, it's my personal view on a way of life NOT A RACE. Secondly the modern face of Islam seems to be a reflection of the Catholic faith in the Middle Ages - no tollerance of anyone with different views and DOUBLE STANDARDS. In Egypt (an Islamic Country) a national newspaper regularly publishes cartoons damning the Jewish Faith. When a western jounalist questioned this she was told "Just accept it, it should not be taken seriously" Yet do the Jews protest and storm the Egyptian embassies? No, they ignore it and laugh along without letting it get to them. The Islamic protesters were challenging the right to free speech in the west. HELLO....if there was no free speech they would NOT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO PROTEST IN THE FIRST PLACE. Whatever way you look at it, this minority of Muslims are painting a bad view of the whole Islamic faith. Back in the Middle Ages, the Muslims were innovative forward thinking scientists who contributed a great deal towards our current lives. Yet now this minority have rejected all that and slam anyone not following their faith. In certain Muslim countries, anyone born a Muslim but who converts later in life to another faith faces death for being an "Apostate" What kind of liberty and peaceful attitude it that? Whilst the majority of British Muslims do not follow the views of the extremists, it's time for the Government and the main Muslim community to condemn these fundamentalists and outlaw this inexcusable behaviour. Just remember this hatred and incitement to hatred is a crime; and arrest and imprison the perpetrators as terrorists. F#ck them, they should have no such rights in a civilised world. This is the 21st century FFS, not the middle ages. Get over it - it's only a fekking cartoon. And if they are so enraged then stop with similar behaviour to other faiths. Richard :mad:

Sorry to hear that mate :( Hopefully the insurance will sort it OK - if you have a classic policy then you do not have any NCB, so that won't matter. Also Carol Nash do (at your request, and on production of photos of the car) an agreed value policy at no extra cost. Hope it works out for you. Richard :)

IIRC the UK spec series 2 cars had the arm rest cover replaced with leather to match the seats. Otherwise yes, the trim was all tweed. Richard :)

Have to agree with Si (again :smash: ) All that technology and both Mitsi and Scooby chose to stick it in a saloon car :xxx: :rolleyes: What a waste - why not build it into a proper coupe FFS......? Richard :)

I bought a Rav-4 last year and I've still got it as it's actually a pretty good drive. I bought a V reg SWB with all gadgets, a/c, electric roof etc for £5k but you can find older much cheaper examples now. OK it's probably crap off road but it drives like a car, grips very well in snow and ice and is "GTi-quick" Returns an average 28mpg too and I drive it quite hard....... .....although on a long m-way run to Cornwall at 95-100mph it is no more efficient than my Z :wack: Richard :cool:

Ditto. Very good quality, nice low rumble and not too loud. Top stuff and pretty good price too :bow: Get one. Richard :cool:
