Judging by the silly vent, probably a field mouse, or maybe even a water vole. :wack:

Did you miss the bit where I said 'worn steering rack bushes'? ;)

Cheap UK series 2 Manual...
No, I think it's probably solid white. The arches and sills...from the photo look reasonable. If they are ok, the underside tends to be pretty reasonable.

Kinda the same. As long as I can surf the net (with ease), text and call, that's good enough for me.

Z32's in years to come
I think any TT manual will hold its money, just like the Skyline GTRs are holding their value pretty well. Poor/run down examples and stuff with hideous bodykits/paint schemes are gradually disappearing. It's a phase that any car goes through I think from a mainstream manufacturer. Same went for a lot of the old classic Fords and to some extent, the Vauxhalls. Stuff like the MK2 Astra for instance. Never see them about, only the premium model is still loved (GTE16v) and all the boy racer shite with the bodykits and rusty death traps have all but disappeared and they've appreciated in value. Same goes for old RS stuff from Ford. I'm sure in another 5 - 10 years when all the scabby / chaved up Z32s have finally been putten to sleep, they'll become sought after a little more.

Be careful with your date connections then on O2 as they are not continuing with 'unlimited data' on their contracts.

That's what I meant! LOL. Wrote when I had a migrane!- Z32's in years to come
It's an era of Z car that was especially good. The 240 was a great car, but as time went on, the fun factor deminished. The Z32 brought that back, so, whilst the demand might not be like the 240 is today, I think there will be a strong demand for them. People always go 'I remember the 240' and 'I remember the 300zx'. No one seems to play much on the 260z, 280z, 280zx or Z31 300zx. In the US, there is an almost cult following of the Z car. Z32s still hold their money pretty well compared to the UK. Z32TTs on average over there have lost about 2/3s their forecourt price whereas over here, they've lost between 1/4th and 1/5th There were a lot less Z32s sold in the UK than 240s. BUT there was an influx of grey import cars when it came to the Z32. Z32s are no longer being shipped over from Japan in any quantity. The odd one or two appear and that's pretty much about it. A lot of tatty old UK and JDM cars are being broken for spares. Good ones are becoming hard to come by. If you check out pistonheads and autotrader, there are still few manual TTs coming up for sale. Most are autos. The TT manuals (being the most sought after) are still holding reasonable value. From about £3.5k up to about £5.5k which hasn't really changed in the 6 years of owning mine. Sure there are some bargains out there, ie non runners, out of tax/insurance etc. But I think prices for the TT Manual have remained steady. Autos and NA prices have gone through the floor though.- Do you prefer meets on Saturday or Sunday?
Either/or (weekends). Sundays are generally a pretty dull day, nice to have a meet on a Sunday. Something nice to do in an afternoon. On a flip side, Saturdays are probably more busy due to peoples' family commitments. IMO, weekday evenings are only worth while in the summer when the weather's nice.- My new wheels
Nice design. Shame they are only 17", but on a SWB, it should look balanced. :cool:- Bodykit & respray update part 1 - Pic heavy

It was your decision to leave though, not theirs. I can see your point to an extent. But if I walked out of a job out of choice, I'd not want to try and claim against it. - Average age of a z32 owner???
