Hi guys
Well just made the 1000 posts
I must say without doubt this is the most active I have been on a car forum. I think as many of the guys and gals have said is such a friendly bunch of people and that for some reason you have also all put up with me! Some of the forum members crack me up :lol: (Nosa!) on a daily basis and is a real community its great to be a part of this group and I think even if I changed cars I would not want to leave!
Well after being inspired by Jimmypop post I thought I would tell my journey… there’s not much on telly and am a few glasses down.
Unlike a lot of guys on here my first Zed was a snap purchase. I had always admired the Z4 but was not really on the radar ... I just looking at cars for sale and saw a stunning Zed for sale and I bought it !...never mind the fact I still had an Fq330 on drive to sell I could not miss up on it.(That’s a whole other story)
It was a great spec pretty much had everything done , only a hardtop was required to complete the look. Sadly quite early into Zed ownership I decided this was not a car I was in love with and I went and purchased a Datsun 350z.
I had always wanted one of these and even today I still do appreciate these cars but if had to be the right spec so Sunset orange and tan leather full UK GT pack etc .... I remember hitting Nissan show room falling in love with one.... well it short live and regrets of selling the Zed were creping in I became frustrated with it and off it went
Few motors later I decided it was time to get in the Zed again I soon realised there was no better car out there for the money regrets of selling it were firmly in place , But after searching for weeks I found a stunning example that ticked all the boxes she was a great by this time I was back in the forum knocking up the posts and modding away....
BUT there was an issue the call of “Evolution” ….. By this time I had 2 roadsters and decided it was time to get what I had always really wanted and adored the Coupe, after chasing a few examples and missing out on a Phoenix Yellow AUC Zed I found my little beauty!
I Can see me keeping this pup for a while even if I have had a M wobble the other week am sticking with her …
Once again thanks to anyone who has help me along my road of Zed ownership! Hope to meet many more of you guys at the meets as they come and cannot wait for my first Euro tour in 9 weeks time!!!
Anyway enough waffle form me heres the pics of each of the Rides!
Cheers Patrick.
My First Zed . sterling grey , 3.0 SE , nice spec , had clear lamp upgrade , 18" rims , clear quads, roadster soloution wind break and a few more mods - I ended up selling to a newbie at the time who is JonnyFive
//p.s he has done her proud with all the extra mods
After seeing the light I was back in the Zed 3.0 se 18" Lm's , clear quads and a bit more, the modding had started but I had lined up her replacement - She left the nest and is now with Nova2k
After a long road I made it to my coupe , done a few upgrade on her and a few more to come! :evil:
