What fun! The meet was at the Nissan Design Europe (Paddington) and nissansportz Members proudly displayed their cars alongside some of NMGB's heritage collection, and a host of other rare and interesting motas. Apart from the cars, there were some very interesting people to chat with - Nissan's own designers, the owners of all the cars, and other car nuts. On this occasion we weren't able to take a look inside the design studio because, word has it, they had a special delivery earlier that day and it wasn't for our eyes! However, we are very hopeful of a proper visit when we can sign an NDA and take a good look around the inside Nissan very kindly kept us fed and watered with lots of free hot drinks, pastries, and pizza. It was a great evening Huge thanks to our contacts at Nissan for having us P.S. I took no photo's Over to the others!!

Happy Birthday Joan!

If you need to, you can go into the 'hidden' system menu and perform a factory reset for the Nav. Hopefully it won't come to that because you'll lose all your address book and previous destinations.

I guess it's tricky to organise anything too big but time will tell. You don't want to be spending money to find it can't happen. I think multiple smaller meets (such as the breakfasts mentioned) or even ones were people meet up at a car park, drive along a planned route then either make their way home at the end or stay for a coffee / meal and a natter. I've been to several gatherings where the organisers have asked attendees to do a PCR test just prior to the event. I'm not sure everyone entered into the spirit of it, but I know the majority did. I suppose I'm trying to say that the meets might need to be a bit more flexible so people attending can decide what they want to opt into and out of as they feel able. I'm up for some!

I need to see it in the metal. Which is a long shot!

Bizarrely, I'm looking forward to seeing it with a front number plate. Preferably a UK one!

Happy birthday Les! I hope you've had a good day

So sorry I had to bow out of this one It looks like a great event and I will do my upmost to be there next year. Do you think my tickets will still be valid?! 🙄

And a belated happy birthday from me

Welcome back mate! Great to see you're driving a Z again

Yep, that's how I understand it. The G35 is based on the 350Z, the newer G37 is based on the 370Z (shocker!) Nice mota's if you want something even more exclusive than a Z and a couple of extra 1/2 seats

Looking great! Unlike the Honey Monster. I need to get a roof on the new shed today and whatever time I left will go to improving it from this state! I'll need to charge it too. It's not moved for 28 days. Tomorrow will be a nice trip out!

Hi and welcome!

Ah, that makes sense to meet now. I must have pasted a link target than the pic itself. Schoolboy error! No worry, the pic is boring. But the deal was great!

Yeah, I know what you mean with the CF ones. There is this available but it's not exactly cheap! Edit: wrong colour of course...

That's weird. I pasted an image into the post and I can see it still. Anyhoo, yes. Bargain!

A genuine Nissan 370Z outdoor car cover. I was V lucky because I'd only just started looking for one (now I don't have a car port) and won this one on eBay. Barely used and delivered for £30!

True! Also, if they aren't sold in the UK the imported ones will be special. It would be a killer to go to the hassle and expense to import one then have a UK version launched a year later.

Thanks for posting! Added to my watch list

Sorry to see this. Very 'annoying'... If you buy from abroad be sure to get a RHD mirror because it will be different from a LHD car. As said above - time for CF or even a little wrap on the mirrors?

Result! Come on folks. Full Members go free!

I keep hearing rumours that someone high up in Renault is pressing hard for the new Z to be sold in Europe. There maybe a glimmer of hope.

My mate has a Tesla Model 3 Dual Motor and the performance is very impressive. The range is pretty good. I know someone with an electric Mini and the range is appalling. I'm not a fan of everything being on the touchscreen - you don't get any dials in front of the driver. There are no physical switches to speak of so you have to navigate screen menus to do a lot of basic things. The voice recognition isn't anywhere near as good as your Android or iOS phone so the whole thing seems very distracting to me. I've never driven one but I would be interested to know what it would be like. I can't decide if they would be exciting (acceleration) or boring (little interaction and detached) to drive.

Hi Scott and welcome to the OC Nice mota!

Okay, Sarah and I are booked in on the club stand I'm driving the Honey Monster so I'd better get it looking something like clean so I don't let the side down
