Who took their Zed out today....?
Luckily my neighbours have known me for over 3 years now and are used to seeing me doing weird car stuff, a few months ago I was upside down on my back with my head in the drivers side footwell and my feet hanging over the head rests trying to get the demist to work!

Stop the extra windscreen wipers wipe
Agreed and it puts the wiper in its sleep position

Who took their Zed out today....?
Can't take either of mine out at the moment as they are both broken (no brakes and no electrikkery) So after unloading the red one and parking it up: It really really needed a clean to get the salt and mud and road grime off it. This was from one days use when we had all that snow, then I couldn't wash it for 6 days because the hose pipe froze. That was 03:15 on the way to work! I spent 4 hours in the rain washing and rinsing it to make sure there was no salt left anywhere, jacked it up to do underneath and everything. Neighbours thought I was mad! As you can see in the background, the TT is VOR which leads me to: The headlights finally arrived! 21 days and £507 later, we can actually see where we are going at night and don't have to use "The Force" to get home in the dark! Then I went out and worked: So in answer to the thread: no I didn't take the Zed out, but I did lots of car/vehicle related jobs!

Completely agree, I can drive all day in a Zed and not even think of my bottom. However 2 hours in the wifes Audi TT and I need a leg stretch and don't even get me started on bus seats!

Needed: large size TT calipers
Normally I would, but I figure this was a good time to change to the 30mm TT calipers rather than the NA 26mm calipers it currently has.

Needed: large size TT calipers
I am looking for a pair of front TT calipers for my car. The 30mm iron TT version. I tried to do the brakes today at a friends house as he has all the kit needed and to cut a long story short the discs didn't fit because I need the 30mm iron calipers rather than the 26mm ones and to make matters worse the thread for the brake pipe in the actual caliper has, in the past, been crossed threaded and stripped. I'm glad we found that issue as I've been driving it around for years and it could have popped off at anytime. The car had to be trailered back as the brakes cant be fixed without some new calipers, so its sitting outside looking rather sorry for its self. If anyone has a pair, please let me know asap! I have attached a picture of the three types with how to tell each type apart.

MOT test updated re HID retrofitted headlamps
Correct me if I am wrong, but my understanding was for dipped and full beam only. Indicators, fog light, side lights, tail lights, etc are all fine. It is, I believe, to do with many cheap HIDS and LED kits don't have a proper beam pattern that is made worse by being badly fitted and/or bad reflectors resulting in blinding oncoming traffic. My personal feeling is that they are not as bad as the new BMW/Ford/Merc/"insert new car here" coming towards you because that is like having the sun and a nuclear explosion directly into your pupil....
