I was just wondering, what year was this forum started? Who where the first ten members? Are they still members? Have they still got their Zs? Who is now the longest serving member? What is the topic that reoccurs most over the years? Has there been a change in the demographic of members? Has the style of mods changed over the years?

The majority of the members listed above will no longer be on the forum, you can also order by 'POSTS' to see the current biggest contributors.

As for the demographics; I'm a relatively new member, however I would guess that back in 2007 Zed owners were part of a more exclusive club with the cars being maximum of 4 years old - many members were presumably buying them new. Nowadays early high mileage Zeds can be picked up for around 3k

I’m still here, but didn’t join the forum until I’d bought a car in late 2008, so don’t make it onto the first page of joiners, only the first page of posters.

Is there any way to order by last visit?

Wasn’t there a link to another Zed related forum that went down the pan?

This forum was created when that went down?
