LOL @ this thread. :rofl:

You still contemplating a karting session Dave?

Now this sounds good! I'll see what I can do. Have nowt planned. :duffer:

Danny you're a lighting legend. :duffer: PS, I've still got those bits I need to send off, will do it over the weekend.

£60 for a standard steering wheel, the same again for a hanging looking radiator. £33 delivered for this! :rofl: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-300ZX-300-ZX-INDICATOR-SWITCH_W0QQitemZ4604502427QQcategoryZ10402QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem

PMSL at apparently 'perfect condition' centre consol, with nice hole cut in it, missing its trim and also a vent slider. £40!!! :rofl: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-300ZX-300-ZX-Z32-STEREO-SURROUND_W0QQitemZ4604500611QQcategoryZ10402QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting Also, £10 postage....so you're paying £50 for a piece of shit! :rofl:

Mine's always a weekend/summer car. Don't see the point on putting wear and tear on it on a boring commute to work and winter driving. Have a company car, but before I had that, I just had a £200 Cavalier that did the job.

Watcha reckon...£20ks worth of parts up there?

Looks like we may have a dreamer then. I thought the guy was American by the way of spelling, but see he's from Wales.....

Veilside is the must ugly kit I've seen. Each to their own though. It's the idea of one of those huge rear spoilers headlight covers that makes me cringe. BTW, that lot is going to cost you mega amount of money. ;)

Sounds very nice apart from the bodymods. Nice going. :duffer:

BTW, get some closeups of those rims. Look like rather tasty ones. :)

Ugly...soz mate. Just not my thang....;)

Nice engine then for that power. Can't say the car looks that nice though. Graphics and front bumper ruin it IMHO. Hope you're happy with it though pal. :duffer:

I want HIDs now....

I was right to a certain degree then.

Wicked! I'll hack it off and cellotape a twiglet in place. Might look better then! :rofl:

I'd say that's not far off. Tweed and micra indicator stalk.......nnniiiiiccceeeeeeee :rofl:

*their* Yup. They are worth about £12k+ for a good one, raising to over £20k for a low mileage mint example. They are quicker than a Zed too. I do still love my Zed though.

My veilside Evolution is 4" I think.

24v GSi Carltons not only looked good but wen well too. The 12vs were stronger engines although not as powerful as the 24v engines. Most of the high speed traffic cars the Police had in the early 90s were straight6 Carltons and Senators. The top end torque on them is very good for an N/A car. Generally very reliable too.

It's something that makes the LC just that little bit nicer...it's a Carlton that can reach 60 in under 5 seconds and looks miles better, far more aggressive than any BMW from that area, other than maybe the E30 M3...which isn't all that. The LCs have almost as much road presence as a Zed. I quite like the old 5 series. Just generally have a very low opinion of BMWs, the latest BMWs are some of the ugliest cars on the roads. The one and 3 series are truly horrid looking cars.

The Carlton was a very good car in its day. The GSi 24v highly rated and often put head to head with the BMWs. Badge snob I see. The Carlton was better than most of its rivals. LC is still quicker. Was the fasted prodcution saloon car for some 15 years. Vauxhall are actually very good at building RWD saloon cars and it's something they've always been good at. The Senator and Carlton were highly rated by the press on launch even though very dated now. Even the Omega was considered a good car which is more than can be said for most of Vauxhalls range of cars. I'd sooner have an LC anyway, looks far nicer. The LC is built to very high standards. Interior is handstitched Connolly leather. Although I considered a BMW 850 and and love the old 635CSi, I'd not buy a BMW purely on principal that the vast majority of road users think their owners are complete w@nkers! :rofl: ;)

Nope, the Imperial Green is far nicer than Black. Like you think, you couldn't seem to tell the difference. It's a gorgeous colour in the flesh.

Yup. Imperial Green. None were ever made any other colour. The one you're refering to may have been Vauxhalls own car from the heratige centre in Luton. Has only covered 11,000 miles. Believe it or not, this is Imperial Green In a slightly different light, the same colour as a very slight green tinge to it.
