Smashing looking Zed and I really like your colour coded roof cover. It looks very smart :D

Nice Zed you have there pal. Like Dave 2 Dogs i got a half cover from Cabrio Shield too, this is the only picture i have of it though - sorry it's not a great one.

Although it is annoying to fold back up and put back into the storage bag when not in use - but that's probably more to do with me being inept! ha.

That's certainly the type of cover we'll go for. As you can imagine in Brighton there are seagulls everywhere - Their dietary habits mean cars parked within 2ft of a tree are at risk! (Let alone the roof motor water ingress issue!)

Took it out for a spin with the Mrs last night - will definitely need to invest in some form of hat! I'm 6'1" so the top of my head is just over the top of the windshield!
The roof should only be up in the rain!

What a fantastic red your Z is . My mate has a Z3 in that colour . Its a cracking colour

I think AMD Tuning in West Thurrock do a remap for the E85 3.0i. It’s something I’ve been thinking about.
3.0i E85 Sterling Grey, Infinitas supercharger, Aero sills, xenons, pro hi-fi with dsp & nav, power fold mirrors. B12 kit, Eisenmann backbox, //M-Sport Seats, carbon dash, cruise and more mods in near future...... :)
