    Grey coupe on the M56 westbound on Sunday morning. Gave me a wave as he came past and we had a little convoy for a while before heading our separate ways :driving:

    Wheel Wobble/Vague Steering - Possible Solution

    It's the area I've circled in red on this pic, and also the part of the wheel that mounts to it (I don't have any wheel pics handy I'm afraid): It is clean underneath all that copper grease, honest!

    Wheel Wobble/Vague Steering - Possible Solution

    The post title may be a bit misleading - I don't mean to imply that it's a quick solution to the problem, in fact, I think there are essentials like the alignment that need to be sorted before its even worth trying this. It's more that after trying everything else, I did see a noticeable...

    LPG Conversion

    Not much in the way of interior mods I'm afraid, but that was kinda the idea :D Just an additional bracket built into the ashtray for the combined gauge/switch which is covered when the ashtray cover is closed: Benneyboy - Good to know that there are few of us running on the cheap stuff...

    LPG Conversion

    I'm pretty sure that there is another guy on here who has an LPG conversion on a roadster. If you search LPG, it should bring up a few threads. If I recall correctly, the boot is the same size, you just don't have the space on top of the tank available in a roadster. Assuming you used a similar...

    LPG Conversion

    No problem! If you want to have a look at the install and can get to the North Wales or Nottinghamshire/Lincolnshire area, just drop me a PM and we can sort a mini-meet! I'm not sure if you are aware, but only the UK and Holland use the same style of LPG filler. The rest of Europe use 2...

    Wheel Wobble/Vague Steering - Possible Solution

    I'm not sure if this is the best location to post this, so feel free to move it to a better home. Hopefully it will help someone. My car suffered from the seemingly common, vague steering at speeds, so much so that I had very little confidence in driving the zed like it was designed to be. I...

    LPG Conversion

    Thanks everyone! I hoped that it might be interesting to some people. It took me ages to research all the pros and cons before taking the plunge with the conversion. There is a lot of good info out there but also a lot of "my mate down the pub once had one...." type anecdotes which were...

    LPG Conversion

    I've been meaning to do a bit of a write up on this for a while now, but I wanted to give a long term report... and then kind of forgot! I know that for some people it wouldn't be a popular mod, and we all buy these cars for slightly different reasons. For me, this has made a fun car cheaper to...

    Newark convoy for zed fest

    I'm heading down the A46 from Newark, so we might catch up on the later part of the trip - keep your eye out for the blue coupe! :D

    Newark convoy for zed fest

    I'll be passing by Newark at around 9.30am if you are still planing on a convoy?

    Noob question with pic

    It's an adjuster for the fog lights (i.e. moves them up and down) I've got some photos of mine apart from when I did my recent refurb, which show a bit clearer how they work. I'm planning to do a write up on how I did it, I just never seem to find the time! :-|

    ZEDfest largest gathering of Z'ed in the UK 14-08-16

    Can you put my name down for this please? I'm ashamed to say that after lurking on the forum for many years, this will actually be my first Zed meet :-? Dave

    Insurance Cover for Bosnia?

    Thanks for the heads up, I've tried Stuart Collins but unfortunately they won't cover Bosnia either (but as you say, they will cover Serbia, Montenegro and Croatia... so every country around it) :headbang: I've resigned myself to the fact that since I don't really want to risk taking the Z...

    Insurance Cover for Bosnia?

    As part of one of my 'little' road trips around Europe, I will be spending a few days in Bosnia later in the month. I've tried countless different insurance companies, but none will provide me for cover for the few days I am over there. I know that I can buy the cover on the border, but this is...
