I just tried that Herts insurance - I was with Flux or Carole Nash before and paying £400 for guaranteed value and unlimited miles with all mods declared. Herts insurance want £850 for a 1000 mile yearly limit :shock: Looks like I'll try flux/nash again later

not on here much now.....
last few months have been hit and miss Im now in the full throngs of a house move and will be internetless for a few months too :( - have to use works connection when I can ;) With cold miserable weather, dark nights and stress of moving along with a few other things it gets hard to check up on here. I started the zed for the first time in months last week just to go round the block ..... Forgot how the Zed makes me smile in performance terms - what a cracking car :) !!! I recommend you all lay up your zed for a few months, drive a diesel then jump back in the zed and see what you feel :) Until then I had thought bout selling her, but now in the immortal words of shrimpy, no chance :) Shame Im not on here much now but will poke my nose in from time to time until I get sorted.... Cheers

Huge thanks to......
Mike aka MGH297 for sorting out all my finances out for me. :bow: Not been on here much due to house move and sorn'ed Zed, but Mike has got me the cheapest mortgage and solicitor fees out there. Highly recommend him if anyone is thinking of switching mortgages etc.... Cheers !! :)

financial advice needed please.
I spoke to someone on here a while ago (very helpful) however I forgot who it was :) Just sold my house. Do I rent or buy again? Rent - was looking at paying around the 500pcm mark then save another £500 pcm and put it into savings for mortgage at later date. Buy - Looking around the £160K mark so think mortgage on a 15 yr deal will be about £1300 pcm by the time ive done dont know whether to rent for a few years and save up - renting is dead money but if im saving does that outweigh it? Is now a good time to buy? Cheers for any advice/replies. Most we could take a mortgage on is 20 years due to age. Want to live life a bit and have holidays etc - if we rent thats great but worries that we may not afford house to retire in as such.

Biking.....
lol, cheers for the offer Sara ;) I got a loaded nice warm comfortable BMW 320D for the cold winter :) Seriously, Im gonna keep the car till mid next year then decide whether to sell or not.

Biking.....
Zed is SORN'ed over winter and is slowly being cleaned up and tweaked etc. Problem is this.... Im so into riding the Fireblade again not sure if I wanna drive again.... Forgotten how addictive biking is, minute the sun comes out I dont think about breaking the Zed out, I bang the leathers on and start up the blade.
-
Allow myself to introduce... er... myself
Hi mate and welcome. Not on here so much now, Zed is laid up in garage and slowly being tweaked etc..... :)

Red Zed-Carbrook Hall Sheffield Sat. Evening
My neighbour about 7 doors up (no idea who he is - never seen/spoke to him) has just bought a red Zed Think its a K Reg - very tidy......... seen it outside his house over last month.
-
Been and got another toy!!
i thought v reg was later than a mk2 escort? I wouldve put a v at mk 4 or somewhere round there. talking of which. my mate has a mk2 escort - he taking bodyshell off and fitting it to a Sierra 4x4 floorpan and running gear (cut down to fit tho) then dropping a cossie lump in. waiting to hear how its all gone I used to have a couple of modded Mk1 escorts - mint cars - rare as **** now too Only seen one mk2 in ages and that was the harrier if you remember them.

getting passed work firewall
Lol, how dare they ask you to actually work rather than browse web Sara. Its easy - just ring up I.T. and demand they unblock them sites so you can carry on browsing at your leisure Mention unions and the like and the worlds your oyster

getting passed work firewall
or, like you said without the dns convertor click Start, then click Run type CMD and a black box will open (This is known as a dos shell) type PING http://www.youtube.com and it will reply with 4 sets of numbers (known as an IP addresS) in this example 208.65.153.238 then just enter them 4 numbers in your web browser Just for the it illiterate, a very rough/basic note. When you goto a website i.e. http://www.300zx.co.uk your computer contacts a "DNS". The "Domain Name Server" effectively resolves (converts) your entry of "www.300zx.co.uk" address into the 4 sets of numbers (ip address). so with the ping command for http://www.300zx.co.uk this would resolve to 62.149.33.64 Sometimes a DNS can go down, but you can still access website with the IP address.
