Spotted you heading westbound just around 7:30, probably a 4 / 5 miles West of J16 Swindon on the M4. Great looking car, think you had black wheels, but I only got a glance, very nice

On my way to the office this morning just around 7am and spotted you on the A46 headed toward Bath, so I'm guessing you'd just come off / come over the M4 at J18. Lovely looking car, wasn't sure if you were a Chilli or a Rosso but it looked like you had a Nismo kit. I was quite taken back as red's are so rare, seeing another one like mine just by chance was great

+ 1 with Ekona and Chris, I wouldn't take my car through, just not worth it. You could check and see if the park has a safari bus / coach thing. They often have one for people who want to see the animals but not drive their own car through. I think Longleat have one, so it might be worth checking out if this park has something similar. Longleat also have a 'cut through' which avoids the 'cheeky monkey' enclosure

Welcome aboard Chris, sounds like you've chosen the right car There are quite a few of us in and around the Bristol area, just keep your eyes on the South West meets section for any upcoming gatherings

Glad you found a buyer Mike, I hope they appreciate what a fantastic car they've got their hands on.I hope you pointed the new owner in the direction of the forum Make sure you pop in and visit us every so often mate

Must have you I saw then mate. I didn't realise you were in a roadster as I only got a quick glance, she looked lovely

Spotted a lovely Black 350Z heading in to Bath on Lansdown near the race course. Got a friendly wave back

You'd have to be wearing these as well

Yes please Ian If you're going to be at Combe on Saturday I'll give you the money then

Few more piccies from today

I've not really had any negative comments, well none that I'm aware of. I've had the Japanese tourist thing, stood in front of the car having their photo taken or taking photographs of it. I quite often see people having a 'nose' at it when I've parked it up or as I'm walking to it. That's always nice as there are often a lot of Porches, Astons, Maserati's etc where I park. It might be because I have Zed badges on the car rather than the Nissan ones, perhaps they're not sure what it is? I still get people going past me on the motorway and staring at the car, which amuses the better half no end I was in the underground car park at a local supermarket a few months ago sticking some shopping in the back of the car. Youngish chap with a couple of friends were walking past me to his little astra. "I love your car mate.....I see around town quite a bit, I really like it....now here it is parked next my crappy little car.....I'd love a car like that". To be honest I didn't quite know how to respond, I think I just said thanks and we've all got to start driving something and that I was sure he'd get one if he put his mind to it and saved up. Part of me wanted to say "Mate, let's drop this shopping crap and let's go for a blast!" I think the best comment the Zed's got is one I didn't even hear. I was waiting outside a shop for my girlfriend and there were two young lads, about 8 or 9 hanging around on their bikes. Better half gets in to the car and asks if "...I heard that?" and I respond with a no. As she was getting into the car one of the lads said "When I grow up and have a family I'm going to have a sensible car to take the my wife and children in and them I'm going to have a flash car like that to show off to my mates..."

Some people will always have more money than sense. l wonder if Bentley really expect their discerning customers to buy these? Actually, its not the discerning customers they're aimed at is it

GM 350Z heading westbound just after 7:30 probably a couple of miles west of J16 / Swindon.

You might be better off looking at this stuff bud I expect Motaman in Bedminster will have it

Yes, although to be fair I only stepped back for a moment to take the photo's then went straight back to licking it

Swiss plate by the looks of it.

Just spotted this gorgeous SLR parking outside Had to nip out and grab a quick couple of shots

+1 Diesel cars also require more regular servicing (Oil, filters etc) if you hope to keep them running for any significant time.

Did Peston mention anything about the European Central Bank recently?

Classic and Sports Car magazine, so I can drool over old Astons, Jags, Ferrari's, Stratos etc and work out where I would put them all if I had a garage big enough

Top shedding I thought so too PLUS the guy i bought it from took super pug away and gave me 70 quid for her he drive it away literally in a cloud of smoke and a line of leaking oil on the road. I felt so proud! That's a WIN / WIN

Top shedding

I'd probably go for a Peugeot 406 HDI if I could find one, probably pick up a 2000 -2002 for £1 - 1500 on the 100,000 mark. Not exciting but comfortable, reliable if serviced regularly and will probably keep you running around for another 60K without too many probs

Fantastic, when I got my first car I had a ZZ key ring like the one in the video ..............attached to the keys for my Renault 11 GTL (with sunroof!).

Very nice indeed, I have 19" Rota GTR's on my Zed and I think they really suit the car. I've also found the Rarerims guys to be as good as gold too
