Congratulations on the sale. I hope you you will stay on the Forum. Thank you for all the help and advice you gave me not long after I joined when I was trying to find and fit heated seats to my E85. I can’t believe both you and Mr Wilks have changed your allegiance at more or less the same time. Mind you both cars look to be stunning. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks everyone for all the positive comments on my Sales thread, the new owner has just driven the Zed away.
Many happy memories with that car, gone but not forgotten

Thanks all.

Over 600 miles driven so far. Mostly motorways on the journey home last night.

Then 400 miles today, including North York Moors, North Pennines AONB, and Northumberland National Park

Over the next 3 days will be doing another 1000 miles through Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, Peak District, Snowdonia, Cambrian Mountains, Brecon Beacons, Exmoor, Dartmoor and all the other South coast National Parks.

Much fun to be had. :D

Absolutely fantastic car, thanks again Colin! :thumbsup:

@ben g, I did wonder about lowering springs but I am thinking, although it would improve the look a little; the handling already feels great, even on bumpy B roads.

I will leave it as is for now. Colin created a great car, now I get to enjoy it. Happy days! :)

Sorry, I cannot work out how to quote on my mobile browser.
