Spot on Inkey, Amen to all of that!

Looking forward to seeing it again , I can't remember the last time I saw one before yours, and certainly haven't seen one since. They're definitely going into hiding. My zed is hiding under a cover, and hasn't had much of a leg stretch in ages :-(

Now you know the answer to that already on this fine, sunny day Tom

Missed your 7,000th post mate, sorry

She's looking ace though - and 16 years old ! Hope you're bringing her on the 27th for a birthday treat

Thats cool Mr Bing
Alas I cant make the 27th as I'll be suffering the hardship of a work trip that is ComicCon 2014 in San Diego :wink:

And I now temporarily hate you - all those cosplay girls, you lucky, lucky b'stard :x

Even weirder. Just out for my morning run - saw T435 FAN, also a Titan Silver M bread van....

I'm totally wrong and they're obviously common as muck, inkey will you take 6k for it? How odd though!!!

 

[Adamski]

It's only the third I've ever seen in the flesh....

Love your car!

I wanted an Estoril Z3MC for years but never got the opportunity

Looks mint!

MC passenger door issues again Had the actuator replaced in May as it wasn't working. Few months in it was working sporadically and today it's stopped again. Motor sounds as though it's operating but the locking tab is stuck and won't budge even manually.

 

[inkey$]

Dropped of at ETA for the central locking. On way over my drivers side window now occasionally doesn't want to close fully

 

[inkey$]

Central locking fixed with a new second hand motor

Windows issue looks to be a switch problem but not urgent so shall get sorted once I have her booked in for new discs and pads later in the summer.

 

[inkey$]

Haven't updated for a while so thought I'd remedy that today. The breadvan has been amazing fun all summer and I plan to enjoy the odd winter non-traction control winter hack over the coming months too.

She is in need of new front brake discs and pads (thanks to mad4slalom for the new parts he had kicking around the place) and the car is booked into ETA in a few weeks time. Goodbye front end judder on extreme braking

As always it would be rude of me not to include a picture of that MC rear end I can't get enough off.

Lovely - we have similar taste in cars Inks - that Coupe would look very nice on the drive next to the Targa

Not read the whole thread, but it sure looks a beauty

 

[tomscott]

I may well be joining you Inks a little way down the line! If I can find a good one that is love it!!

I can't copy you tho, would like an estoril with two tone estoril interior

Looks like prices are on the up for S50s. This is virtually identical to mine.
