Nothing to do with me now this car, but the chap that bought it from me apparently sold it to a trader (or traded it in) within a short space of time, and whoever bought it from the trader is selling it on again??

I’m a bit perplexed, was a great car :?

Strange indeed. Lovely looking Zed, like the contrast, lighter leather.

Yep, the car was much quicker after I removed half a ton of MPower badges and the ‘eye brows’ on the headlights… never found time to swap the grils over though :rofl:

Hi,

As a starting point this is my thread from when I bought it and what I did to it;

viewtopic.php?t=142167&hilit=Project+midnight

Only problem I had was the passenger seatbelt sensor wire was partially detached. This caused the annoying seatbelt not plugged in ‘bong’ with a passenger in the car when the seatbelt was actually plugged in. When I removed the seats to refurbish them I noticed that the sensor wire was unclipped, clipped it back in properly and no more seatbelt ‘bong’.

It’s a good car, but it’s not worth the current asking price, needs to be quite a lot cheaper. Doesn’t look like it’s had any additional work completed since it left my ownership.

I’ve no idea why the chap who bought it from me sold it so fast, last I heard from him was when he got home with it after a drive of about 4hrs plus from my place and he said it drove like a dream… I don’t know if it developed a problem afterwards or what?
