I cant be arsed with your shitty attitude anymore.


I'll stick to actually helping members out, like Mike does

That means that you cant stand it if someone disagrees with you.

Oh yeah, like I didnt do that here. I'm the one here that pointed out to the TS that pre-fl and fl cars have different gearboxes, and that pre-fl and fl cars have different bumpers/taillightstyles including pictures and whatnot.
Grow up man.

no it means you have a clear obsession with being right in every aspect and i just give up , ive got better things to do (like colllect the wheels from being refurbed on a fellow Z4 forum members car that i have met twice) for him out the goodness of my heart,

I presume Mikes busy fixing roof motors also.

Have a nice day!

I think that obession is mutual otherwise you wouldnt have reacted over and over again with the same arguments.
Takes one to know one.

So what about this car then?

Is this a forum car? (looks quite good imho so it may be)
Whats the story on this car?
Factory fitted or later modded? (both possible of course)
I'd like to know the vin# (is that something you can get from the number plate?)

 

[Truth]

Repeaters aren't headlights! :roll:

I think the repeaters are the indicators in the headlight?
And the roundels on the side are also white on option code S785A.
And so are the indicators in the taillights.

So I still have no idea what he's talking about when he says that pre facelift cars were never supplied with clear repeaters in the UK, when option code S785A was availabe. :?

Indicators are not what we in the English language are referring to when we say repeaters. We mean side repeaters. U pedantic so and so. You really have a problem. Being a know it all. Mike and Jamie help people and do a bloody good job helping them. U just want to correct them or anyone else who u think u can get one up on. How have You helped the OP out by pointing out German cars? They have helped by explaining a simple method of recognising cars in the UK. Like the OP
asked....

Think those have been retrofitted as the 3.0i come with silver innered lights on both pre-fl and FL , one you linked has black inners

 

[GuidoK]

Yes that makes sense.

Somehow I like the black inserts better.

 

[Wondermike]

Please don't all fall out over some headlights. I did mean the fronts were available, please see this old post from Phil which shows them.

Nice to see you also stepping in from the sideline....
Care to elaborate on this on my post history? Your mate DLV also hinted on this but when I asked him there was no response.
I dont pretend to be a saint (with that I mean I dont avoid a good discussion, even when it gets a little bit heated) but the knife cuts both ways.

Thanks for the comments, Guido. I enjoy this kind of discussion...

Thanks for your thoughts on castor....

Come on OP! it's Guido to the rescue here!!

Thanks GuidoK!

Wow thanks for all tht info mate.

Thanks for the good advice GuidoK, it has given me a very good insight to what needs to be done...

Thanks for the reply

Just a quick little selection. Loads of negativity here....or not?


edit:
↓ just as I thought....
