definately all of the above, and looking for places to let me hear the BOV@s echo !!! bought mine from essex, drove 3 hours back to telford and "WASTED" a renault 21 turbo who thought he was hard, did 160mph om the M40 !!!!, and yes it can do 160mph before you ask :bow: , renaullt bottles out at 130 !!! WICKED, used £50 worth of petrol too....... worth it though :hyper:

would you be able to paint the needles with that luminous glow in the dark paint ????

thanks mate, I wondered why they were there..... i'll leave them in then... mr_red....

Hi guys, i'm in the process of doing mine now, do I need to remove the 4 bulbs on the underside of the speedo pod ?? or replace them with blue LED's ?? I've replaced the 4 (501) bulbs on the speedo pod with blue LED's and the fuel warning light with a super bright red LED, now what about the 4 bulbs underneath ?? thanks mr_red....

I was of the same view as you, but i took the plunge and i'm well pleased now, saw them on the Knightsbridge performance' Z at santa pod, and thought i'd get some, saved at least £40.00 aswell over UK prices. The trader was very good, i asked a few questions by email before I took the plunge and they answered them in proper english within 12 hours and assured me that everything would be ok. Got a DHL tracking number to track the parcel..... ( see info below )....

yeah thanks, saw that post when it was too late... :headvswal had an email from him last week saying he would look into the delay... :confused: getting p****ed off now, won't be buying anything from him again, possible £65.00 down the drain :rant: well you live and learn don't you.... next time i'll do a search first, then buy later.....

Final price mate...... :rofl: £84.00 for the visors.... £28.00 postage..... £5.00 insurance...... wasn't sure about buying from Hong Kong but fantastic delivery times, 3 days including the weekend !!, :bow: thats better than Royal mail by far !!!!! I've been waiting for 5 weeks for an item from USA :confused: from ZXDRIVER, but apparantly thats common with him.... :headvswal :rant: mr_red....

As soon as they are in i'll put some pics in my rides section..... ( some pics of the actual items are in the rides section now )..... i'm putting a 5" DVD screen in my centre armrest too ( one of those headrest screens that you cut into your headrest ), then my daughter can watch the DVD in the back just by lifting the armrest lid..... pics to follow when done..... mr_red...

Ordered me a set of Sunvisor 8" DVD screens on Friday....... :hyper: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5849625510&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT they arrived this afternoon all the way from Hong Kong !!!! within 24 hours of me paying for them I had an email from them with a DHL tracking number, they arrived in Birmingham this morning at 06:57 and at my door at 12:10 - fooking AMAZING !! They work fine, hooked them up within an hour ( not installed them yet though ).... Got a cream coloured set to match the leather retrim ( i've retrimmed the headlining in cream too..... ).... cheapest I could find in the UK was £155.99 inc postage for a grey set only, got these for £117.00 inc postage, now thats a bargain..... £117.00 for 2 of everything, all cables and connectors included..... well done to the guys at " lettuce trade "...... :bow: :bow:

got the neons off ebay, less than a tenner, put a switch in the ashrtay to turn them on and off, at night when the bonnets down - turn the neons on and blue light shines through the bonnet vent, looks good...... when the bonnets up, looks even better......

Thanks very much, comments are much appreciated..... I think it looks great with the covers off especially at night when the blue neons light up the engine. I think that with the covers off you can inspect the belt more frequently and I have it changed each year anyway...... thanks

I'm waiting delivery of dark blue / cream inserts with dark blue "Z" sewn into seats and enough of the cream leather to do the rest of the interior, will have it finished by the end of january, i'll post the pics up when finished....... :hyper:

I'm also going to retrim the headlining with the beige and inside the glovebox where i'm putting my Apexi AVCR and AFC II. in the middle of stripping out the interior now - before and after photos to follow......

Train Driver............ 125mph and legal..... ha ha ha .....!!! passenger trains, diesel, from Crewe, Manchester and also little diddy trains around wales - lovely.....

Right, here goes........ My sister bought a car off her friend at work and they agreed that he would pay for the car at the end of the month when she got paid, she took the car and a receipt was made up stating that the balance would be paid at the end of the month.....sold as seen.. A few days later the car overheated and broke down, the head gasket had gone,she was upset and called me to have a look, it was buggered tow truck came to take it home She told me that she still had to pay for it !! - WHAT !!, i said, tell them to get stuffed.....!! So she rang her friend and told her what happened and her friend basically said " tough " ! So me and my 2 brothers towed the car to her friends house and dumped it on her front garden and told her to get stuffed........ My sister ended up in court because her friend wanted her money as agreed in the sale....... the judge threw out the case against my sister because the car was not fit for purpose and therefore the sale was void, he even awarded my sister £50.00 towards the cost of the tow truck.. So " sold as seen " DOESN'T MEAN A LOT !! Tell him you will see him in court !!
