*Warning* - Don't buy anything from user 'gixxar'
Regardless of what has happened now, the user STILL hasn't got the backbone to reply to my PMs. A complete waste of space.

Nice. The IMPUL stuff is very nice. If you're going for that, does this mean you'll be going for the bumper extensions etc?

You must be about 18 then. I'm 26, paying £500 fully comp on my TT Zed. That's unlimed mileage and I have 6 points. It is stored off the road though, in a garage in the middle of Somerset, so that might be a considerable factor.

I wish. Had not response from him what so ever despite sending him about 3 messages. So, as my other thread suggests, do NOT buy from user 'gixxar'.

Z's & their colour!
Pearl white, bayside blue, silver, black and sometimes a red one can look rather spiffing.

*Warning* - Don't buy anything from user 'gixxar'
So does that go for everyone buying things from forum members? Just as well do away with selling anything mechanical on here then. The engine ended up on ebay, which is the reason it went for the price it did. The engine was personally garunteed as beng 100%. At the end of the day its not to do with that. The engine was for sale on here, so does this mean we cant trust anyone on here? 2nd hand bare zed engines dont go for an afull lot more from AndyZ for example.

*Warning* - Don't buy anything from user 'gixxar'
As you know, I purchased a replacement engine for my dead zed. Said engine was for sale on here by above user who not only claimed that this engine was a low mileage engine, but also that it was 100%. After seeing the engine also for sale on ebay, I thought it would be a decent one. Being a long standing forum member, I trusted his judgment and bid against the engine and won. I guess in my naivety, I was wrong to do this, but because the user had been a forum member/subscriber for such a long time I thought I was safe. Wrong. After collecting engine in the dark, myself and Jason took it back to his to thoroughly inspected it about 3 weeks later when both of us had the time. After inspection, we came to the following conclusions. The engine was in a poor state and was not the same engine as advertised ref. pic which showed a very clean engine not sat on a subframe with cam covers. The engine I had infact got, had its cam belt covers missing, not an issue but was quite obvious this was not the same engine as the photo indicated. A subframe and steering rack were also attached, again, this was not on the photo and quite why someone would put one back on to an engine is beyond me. To add to this, a compression test was done and was found that both rear cylinders were totally shot. Below 50PSi pressure in each. The dip stick top was not there, in its place was a piece if hose pipe and a jubilee clip. A spark plug was also missing so one cylinder was also exposed to the elements. Now the little things I can kinda put behind me as I was mainly interested in an engine that was supposed to be 100%. When questioning the user in a nice friendly and civil matter via PM asking that some recompense be due, I received no response. A second message was sent about 3 days later requesting, again politely for a response to the previous polite message. Still nothing. I seeked advise from Mac who requested I pass on his details to him and yet still nothing from user gixxar aka Lee Paulton. I had also been copying in Mac on correspondence so that nothing was untoward. Pretty disgusted that a forum subscriber can be so ignorant to what is quite a serious matter. Member has not offered an explanation in any shape or form, let alone a part/full-refund. I am now £400 out of pocket and very angry about this. So just a warning people, do not buy from mentioned user. Can not be trusted.

wheels refurb decisions
Centres of my Rays wheels are chromed. I like chromed rims, but only certain styles wear them. Dished flat 5 spokes such as this make me dribble....

Yeah, that doesn't always solve the problem. I bought another one from a forum member and it's shafted and I've lost a load of money as he can't even be arsed to reply to my PMs.

Sick to death of Welsh people......
Lots of them seem to be from mobiles. I guess that's there way of enticing you to call them back and say 'who just called me'?

Renault rear wiper arm replacement
Because the standard rear wiper on the Zed looks a little aged. Just something I thought up a few months ago that would just update the rear a tiny little bit..... Laguna rear wiper would be the one to go for.

Seen it before. The car you're viewing it from is an M3 and the Audi is a tuned S4.
