Fook me my heart jumped in my throat just then! :shock: Mine is a white L300 but its been looked after in Reading while I'm in Bosnia! So glad to read it has chrome alloys! Phew! :cool:

See my sig?? Ebay jobbies, about a tenner.

Right you lot!! You wont need a gun for starters! ust stay clear fo dodgy areas, Jo'burg, centre of Durbs and probably the centre of Cape Town too. Same as you wouldnt go the the dodgy areas in the UK! Keep your windows wound up and doors locked. At night on deserted roads, dont stop at red lights either. Its a great place for a holiday, 99% of the locals are v friendly. Anywhere along the coast will be good to visit. Durban's harbour area has just been revamped and is GREAT! The Drakensberg is an amazing place if you like hiking. Defo go cage diving in Cape Town, a great white up close is probably the scariest thing you'll ever do!! You can go and see the whales off the coast too. Garden Route, Wine Route are spectacular. Knysna is lovey. Oh yeah, and everything Goit siad! I hear you're going NEAR Kruger, good choice as Kruger is VERY comercialised and you wont get the real 'African bush' feel. And the best bit, the :duffer: is cheap!!!! I lived there for 18 years and NEVER had any trouble of any kind. Just use your comman sense. Have a good one! Andrew

Nah, no Apaches there......yet!!

Cheers Guys and Gals I'm off to Bosnia til April on some EUFOR crap. I'll try pop on here when I have the chance, not sure what facilities we'll have out there. All the best and hope everyone has a good Xmas and New year! :duffer: Cheers Andrew :D

Cheers for the link! Just wish I had found it before I fitted mine!!!! :headvswal

Whats all this feet and inches cr@p????!!!!! Using the well established METRIC system, I'm 1870mm. So there! :tongue:

Got one too!!! :dance:

Sorry! Duplicate Thread :x:

Cheers Dude! :bow:

I'm looking at getting a car cover for when I'm away on tour. Anyone recommend a good quality brand or supplier?? Asked for 2 quotes so far from places I've found on the net. It needs to be waterproof and breathable as it'll be on it for 6 months! Thanks for you ideas in advance! Andrew :) PS How long is the Zed???! Need it for when I order one!

Rather different to Yampiedog.... Drove into London last friday and there was a lot of start stop traffic off the M4. Girlfriend said she could smell fish. Resisted the urge to tell her to shut her legs!!! :x: A while later I glanced down at the speedo, noticed the water temp guade wae higher that usual. Took ages to find a place to stop without parking on double yellows. Opened the bonnet and saw water pouring out of the short rubber pipe that runs from the top hard pipe from the rad to the engine. Just below and to the right (as you look at the engine) of the Dashboard water temp sensor. I let it cool down. IN the meantime I went off in search of a garage to get some bits. Eventually found a Halfrauds and got some pipe repair tape and a jubilee clip. Got it mended (sort of) after removing half the shin from my knuckles. Filled up the water and started it. I got a thin jet of water but couldnt work out where from as the fan was in the way and didnt want to loose anymore skin! Needed to get on the road back to Reading before the traffic picked up so I took off the headlight panel and the thick rubber strip from the back of the engine bay to improve airflow throught eh engine bay. Also I didnt push the bonnet fully closed, just left it on the catch. The car ran cooler on the way home, rather surprised! Got home to fine water dripping out of the burst pipe. More so after the engine is turned off. Now, after my story, how easy is it to replace that pipe??????? Its in a right bugger of a place. I know :ttiwwop: but I hope you can work out which one I mean! Cheers Andrew

See below!!! Ebay job, less than £20 too!! You know it makes sense!!! :bow:

Right, not sure why this has posted up twice, with out me doing it! Must be something to do with the fact that I'm accessing this on my phone! Its a new gadget so I'm seeing what it'd do! Good to see you guys this evening, and some more Zeds. Problem with these meets is that I keep getting ideas of what I can buy for me Zed! Liked Jay's tinted windows... Jay, I'm defo up for a rolling road day when I get back from Bosnia. Hope to see you guys at th next meet Andrew

I passed you on the m25 yesterday. you had your targas off, loads of gauges in your A piller. I was in the white Zed. Was it you??????!

LOL!!!! :rofl: :rofl: But I like gadgets too much!!

Here's a better site http://www.thenavigationcompany.com/products/SD00022_TR_30.html

You own the black Zed in Ripley. I left you with the peice of paper with the club's address on it. Lovely Zed by the way! :cool:

Saw you on Friday (5 Aug) round lunchtime on the A327 in Wokingham. I was in the white one going the opposite way.

Thanks for the help guys... Now to find a garage willing to do it! Will try the hammer method first though! :smash: :smash: :smash:
