I should point out that the comments I got are from UK drivers after returning from Germany, never had any problems in Germany. I was in my zed so actually got a lot of compliments and people taking pictures! Sent from some app that I don't know how to use!

Brexit Poll
Couldnt agree more, I am a remainer and dislike what is happening and the ay its being done, however I am at the point now where the UK is doing 90mph and the concrete wall is impending, so just let it happen and hope my seltbelt and airbag are working. In the aftermath we might get to drive around in cars like this: or even get back into my sailing: There is an upside to brexit, may even live in a house like this: Australia have released a short tv show about life after brexit to help us aclimatise too:

Newbie - with z32 TT ooking for set of four wheels, used
The rims with the tyres are in pretty good condition, but the tyres are not. They are JDM 225 for all four. The rims without tyres are in worse condition, but they are the UK 225 front and 245 rears. The black rim, I took off my old car before it got broken. There are four of them, however the last wheel nut (always the last one) wouldnt undo, so one front wheel and the hub were removed together still attached to the shock. Let me know if you are interested Tom

Yes, all the Germans I met (contrary to popular belief, they have a wicked sense of hurmour!) were very nice and were not negative to us brits because of brexit, a few asked about it and how we felt. which led to some wiessbier fuelled discussions, but it was light-hearted and fun, unlike here, where if you bring brexit up, you're not sure if you will be stabbed or celebrated. Even trying to sit on the fence these days doesnt work as people want to label you as either in or out. I must have been watching the wrong channels! I didnt understand most of it to be fair!

Brexit Poll
This is the problem, right here. Unfortunaly, like religion, only one set of people can be right and we end up in this mess. If people were more accomodating on both sides and actually worked together instead of hating each other we might actually have world peace one day.... :lol:

I should clarify; It was british cars/people doing that after I got back from Germany. The people I talked to in Germany, didnt seem to care about Brexit and I only ever saw Mrs May on TV once...

Couldnt agree more, I am against Brexit, but we have completely embarrased ourselves as a nation. Our nation is on the world stage with everyone watching, what kind of example have we set? Three years, three prime minsters, MPs acting like three year olds.... Who will want to do business/trade with us now? I am so sick of hearing about brexit, my wife and I have banned it in the house. It has destroyed this country, people are so polarised now, that they will hate you for no good reason, other than you didnt vote the way they did. I spent the first four months of this year living in Germany, so I had a GB sticker on the car (blue with yellow stars around the GB bit), I get people flashing at me and middle fingers and alsorts... Honestly we have lost as a populace; the MPs, the money men, the illuminati, whatever you want to call them have won. They now have a populace that is under-educated, a press that controls peoples beliefs, a populace that is so deeply divided by each other and will believe anything. If it wasn't for us being 6 years into the 7 year process for getting my wifes citizenship, we would have left by now for a sensible country like North Korea...

Rear bumper
Selling a rear bumper that came with a project I am working on. Not sure of its history, except it came from a famous car (no idea whose!) It seems to be a stock rear bumper with an extra bit added below to wrap around the exhausts. Its been smoothed and primed, but will need a clean and primed again before spraying. I havent tried fitting it, as ill be using a stock bumper. - - - Updated - - -

Simply Japanese 28th July - 2019
It was a great day, my friend and I left at 6am, drove along the A27/M27 and on the way convoyed with a skyline until Chichester, a 350Z with back window lurves (which looked cool!) from Shorham until Lancing and a Legacy for some of it too. The tesco car park was a good meeting point as usual, although it seems to be used by everyone and their dads(!) now! We then did a 300zx convoy to the grounds and queued our way through the gravel car park (Sorry Si!) and into the grounds. The location was ideal, the monorail even gave us some much needed shade in the afternoon (although I still burnt my knees! It was really good meeting people and putting names and faces together! I hope we can organise more meets as the face-to-face interaction is what drives a club, and for me atleast, seeing all the cars in their prestine condition as really spurred me on to get working on my car and its less-that-pristine condition for next year! Having said that, I got 17 photos, 1 selfy and a youtuber clip where the guy called it a Nissan NZX! I even got two "Wow dad, look at that car!" Here are some quick snaps I took: - - - Updated - - -
