Well I'm getting a silver one so chrome doesn't really go - it's an M Sport so has a few little extras

Hi all

It's been a while but I'm back. Had a Z3 a fair few years ago in Montreal Blue all chromed up, sold it and now a fair few cars later I'm off to buy another one tomorrow.

Will post up pics and details when I get it home. Hope everyone is ok

foxy

Its 698 cc - only tiny, but the power to weight ratio makes it pretty nippy. It does 58 miles to the gallon as well :shock: Better for me really as money was a bit tight. It does 80 bhp at the moment, but re-mapping seems to be the "in thing" which will take it up to 110. Not too bad for s...

foxy

Heres a piccy for you

foxy

Just thought Id say hello to everyone.

Havin a great time with my new car, thought I would miss the Zed but I havent which is quite worrying

So how is everyone doing and what have I missed??

foxy

I will pop back every now and again to see how u r all doing and to update you on my new car. Dont expect big things tho - certainly no chrome going anywhere near this one - it wont look right - so will hand my crown over to Sue instead. Oh and Sue - enjoy the drinks holders - Komis will be upset as...

Well i said a fairwell to my beloved Zed yesterday as it went to Norfolk to a new home. I was sorry to see him go, but it had to be. I am now a Smart Roadster owner, got myself a limited edition "speed silver". Its small, economical and quite nippy. It certainly fits my needs and wants at ...

foxy

Im getting exactly the same errors - on posting and PMs, but they all seem to go through ok.

foxy

Thanks to everyone who turned up and made it a great show. Was nice to meet some new and old faces. Have already booked our spot for next year so hope to see you all then!

Could be their own car, they have an RX7 as their "northern" car.

And as for the ladies - I really cant comment

foxy

Have you had any luck selling it as im thinking of selling mine?

foxy

Many thanks for your help guys, I will pass on your valued comments to Paul. Im sure he will be most grateful and a little relieved.

foxy

Hi guys This is a post that the guy I run show offs with has posted on our forum... just thought you might be interested if you live in the Coventry area and need a bodyshop - the choice is yours really! ************************* My car (Honda Civic) went into a bodyshop in Earsldon in Coventry MANH...

foxy

Brilliant - thanks so much guys xx

Will have a go on Saturday and will take progress shots etc - my fingers will be the ones in the rubber gloves, having only had my nails done last week

foxy

Does anyone, or has anyone changed their fuel filter on their Zeds themselves? My otherhalf bought me a fuel filter as a present (yes some women get flowers...) and i need to get it fitted. Dont want to take it to a garage as he has offered to do it for me if I find out how??!! He drives a 7 series ...

foxy

Demon Tweeks is where I got mine from.

You have to call them tho as its not advertised in their mag or on the website.

Note - its a racing boss - so u will need to tell your insurance company that its not collapsable.

All gone now guys - went like hot cakes

And suzy - dont worry - you should see the state of mine at the moment - it looks like its had an accident with a muck spreader

foxy

Yeah it was a Silverstone.

The corsa had the fleck paint all over - just the sun caught it at the front when I took the photo

foxy

Trust me, those pictures were tame compared to some of them. There was an orange fiat punto with diagonally split motorised bonnet - it was totally mad - and the guy just sat there ALL day opening and closing it for the public to stare in amazement :roll: Told u my car wasnt "OTT" - u didn...

foxy

Just got back from Trax. Heres a few of my pics - didnt take many, but includes the winner of the public display that beat me - the purple BMW 3-series :) http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y149/show_offs/Show%20Pictures/Trax%2006/trax032.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y149/show_offs/Show%20Pict...

foxy

Really sorry Tony, just read it and couldnt believe my eyes.

Glad you are ok tho. Like everyone said, the car can be repaired, although its still very upsetting, id be in bits.

Let us know how u get on with the repairs x

foxy

Dont worry, everyone is welcome

PM me your name and address and I will get you a pass sent, think ive only got 2 left after this

foxy

Yep, no worries. PM sent.

Hi

Was just wondering if anyone was going/or wanted to go to the Ultimate BMW Show at Santa Pod on 23rd September.

Show Offs have a stand there and we still have a few passes available if you would like to join us. PM me for more details.

Foxy

foxy

Yeah it is that one. Spoke to both Andrew and Jeff at club office and they said there was a Zed Register stand but didnt mention who was actually organising it. Jeff said to contact him 3 weeks before the event and he will make sure Im down. Was just trying to see if anyone on here was organising it...

foxy

Just heard on the grapevine that there is a Zed stand at this.

Any ideas who is organising it as I would love to show my car off there.

foxy

Nice to see Foxy again too, she was busy shining those lovely wheels when I interrupted her, We stood chatting for so long that her other half had to finish the other side hehe. Montreal Blue does polish up well though. Was nice to chat to you - will have to do that more often if I can get out of p...

foxy

Hey Foxy.You probably heard the news.I mustn't keep on about it,or I might get run off the road. It was nice to meet you.I think you might have brought me luck. :D Congratulations - I knew you would do it!! Nice to meet you too. Think I might have a go next year - give you a bit of competition :D

foxy

I had a great day too - sorted out my pics... http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y149/show_offs/Show%20Pictures/Gaydon%202006/gaydon2006093.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y149/show_offs/Show%20Pictures/Gaydon%202006/gaydon2006088.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y149/show_offs/Show%20Picture...

foxy

I'll be at Gaydon in the show n shine section.

Have seen u on the BMW forum as im moderator on there.

Look forward to seeing you at the weekend

foxy

Must admit it wasnt one of the best shows Ive been too - dunno whether it was the rain or what. Best bit for me was watching Paul Swift (the stunt driver) with some very clever driving - talk about talented! Gotta clean the car now as its covered in mud, although the torrential rain, thunder and lig...

foxy

Sorry I missed u.

We had been there since 7.30am, stuck it thru rain and shine, but by half 3 just had enough!

Was a great show, like u said, some awsome cars there, just a pity that the weather ruined it a bit. Didnt really have time to take my top off (the car that is)!

foxy

Thats horrid

foxy

I was quite lucky, all my star washers were in tact and the pegs werent broke, so just hooked the mesh over the pegs and secured it with the washers. If anything had broken I was gonna use some Sikaflex (bodyshop glue) which is apparently the best thing to use. I bought some just in case but didnt n...

foxy

They were easier than I thought actually, hardest part was getting the black ones off. The Lockwood ones mean that you dont have to take off the needles, they just pass over them. Only thing I had to do was paint the needles black as they were originally white and I wouldnt have been able to see wha...

Done a few bits n pieces to the Zed this weekend as I have a few shows coming up. Couple of cheap and very easy alterations...

Foxy Maybe the kids found some irony in stealing from a car sponsored by a security company. Yeah my fault for not having the wheel sensors on outside my house cos the cats keep setting them off. Guess i will just have to put up with the constant "beep" everytime an animal takes a fancy t...

foxy

Can you believe this?

Someone has stolen my chrome valve caps off my wheels from outside my house??? why?? Ive been told its kids using them for their bikes!!!!

Its soooo annoying. Have had to go out and spend £15 on locking ones now

foxy

I remember from a show I went to last year, there was a 3-series with Gucci interior and I was given a card from a company that produces the material... they can do any sort of designer, colours etc. Dunno how much it would all cost - expensive I guess, and dunno if its original or not. But I suppos...

foxy

Thats my handbag!!

foxy

Well as nobody told me there was a Z stand and as Ive already entered show n shine, I wont be able to marshall - sorry. Will be tied up cleaning.

foxy

Welcome from me.

About time we had some happy zeds on the road, like yourself all I see is miserable ones

I also cant believe how many have their roofs up in 31 degrees heat! Unless they are sunburnt and taking advantage of the air con!

I love my zed too so your not alone.

Post up some pics

foxy

Im going M42 M40 so will see u there. What stand u going on?

foxy

Doesnt look like we have a Zed stand, so have put both my cars on the central region stand, although my zed will also pop over to show n shine
