Did I sell you some oil? :cool:

Still going strong!! Was a rare sighting today, never usually take it to work but my boxster is in for an MOT so the z has been pressed back into commuting duties for a few days.

Nothing majorly new with the car. I'm going to have some paintwork done in the new year as its starting to look tatty in places, along with an Inspection II service as that's not a million miles away either. Anyway, got myself a little sony action cam recently, so here are a couple of in car...

Thats a really good deal. Nice unit too, adds a few cool features like POIs shown on the map screen and voice guidance that doesn't sound like a 1980's speak and spell.

Essentially no difference other than what you mentioned Larger screen - 5" versus 4.3" Way more maps - 54 has Full Europe, 42 only has UK The 54 is a slightly newer model too, so you might find it works very slightly quicker than the 42 but the difference in that regard will be incredibly...

Group buy? Count me in.

Yes mate. I've seen loads of their work, recommended many people to them, even had the old man's 911 wheels redone there but until now never taken a set of my own wheels to them.

Had the wheels acid dipped and powder coated last week. They were previously repainted to a low standard in completely the wrong shade - very flat with little shine. Much happier with the new result for the cost - all four for £105: Tom

I've sold them for a living for 7 years. Go Garmin. Not a huge difference between tomtom/garmin any more, but for me garmin still come out on top. Much nicer to deal with aftersales wise if you have a warranty issue. We still see less garmins come back as wonky. Tend to be £10 or £20 cheaper...

HA! I'm sorry Ali. Your worst fears are true. I wouldn't swap the M for one in a million years but emotion aside the fiesta just does everything better. I'm sorry i have failed you.

No plans for any more big changes. Next job is to get the wheels refurbed. They were done pretty badly last time around and are starting to show it. Might do a VANOS refresh if i can pick up a good second hand unit at a reasonable price. I'm still surprised at the response from everyone to...

Couple of shots from yesterdays run out with my best mates' e92. Tom

2 cars newer than mine?

Thanks Ant, will do. I had 2 request just the same from the Z3MCoupe forums. Looks like demand is rising for certain colours/spec, which I haven't seen before.

Minor update,. The panda is now for sale, as I took delivery of this a few days ago thanks to the amazing lease deal thread on this very website: Safe to say its amazing. Its going to be perfect for any journeys I dont want to make in the M and of course the usual commuting work. On a...
