Hello from me..

[Pops3.0]

Hi, I've been reading your great forum for a while now so it was about time to show myself.

I was very lucky to find a 3.0 locally just before Christmas & have been busy washing it ever since :roll:

Already fitted a twin usb socket & Aux lead (this lunch time) so just cruise control to go before the mods get harder & costlier .

In the past I've spent many pounds modding a MK1 MX5 & my good lady has ordered me not to "mess this one up" - we'll see :?

Anyway hope the pic helps (non of my daughter I'm afraid :wink: )..

Welcome.
Trying to work out if you are working under the car, compensating for a sloping drive, or just going for the Thunderbird 2 quick launch effect?

Welcome aboard. I see you are ready to launch the life boat for a quick get away. 8)

Hi and welcome to the forum.

A good looking Z4, and those ramps look fantastic!

Welcome to the forum, are the ramps home made?
This is how a first post should be, well done with the photo

Thanks for the welcomes, yes the ramps were the first job. TBH I put our clio on them first just to be sure The Z has just clocked 57k & been well looked after & I want to keep it that way. Ah Thunderbirds, somebody's showing their age :wink:

I remember the nightmare many moons ago trying to get a Tracey Island for my young son, they were the toy to have that Christmas, anyway there’s been a film and new series since then

Me too, early to mid 90’s I think. When you eventually found one at £60 you still had to build the bl**dy thing

Yes that’s right, I even contemplated making the blue Peter paper mache one

excessive concern with minor details and rules.

I think if you had Thunderbird 2 on those ramps you may need a bit more bracing..

Thunderbird 4 a bit lighter...

I blame a life dealing with the CAA...

Ha ha!
Ok, well here's yer pedantry back at yer.................Surely Thunderbird 4 was transported everywhere inside Thunderbird 2? so it would have started off on the same ramp. :wink:

If you listen carefully, you can just hear the original topic fading into the distance.
