For future reference I live in Lincoln, happy to give any help if you find another one, Lincolnbaggie would be really useful on the technical aspects, he has helped me already with this site. I,ll PM you with phone contact for me.

@cmck13 ... Was dragged up in Kinghorn as well .... I managed to escape though

Born at Strathmore Street, still have relations living at Burnside Avenue (The Hunters, John and Gina). Left long time ago though, 60's.

Welcome from an ex "Kinghorn" man.

Welcome to all the new members and Merry Xmas to all.....

 

Went for a Quickie today,CAREFULLY

A late Merry Xmas to you and a happy New Year.

Insurance wise have you tried Admiral yet? Im a 57 year old and managed it for £320 for me and the other half, fully comp and kept mileage below 8k.

Now get on with cleaning all that crap of your new car LOL, just wait till the snows gone then the fun begins.

Why do people doubt what others say on this site? I hope, like me they have put their actual experience on the subject about the post and not what that they have been told in a hearsay nature about about the post???? We had this on the posts about snow on car roofs etc?

"He had to pee in an empty quavers packet and pour it out of the window"

The wife took 4 hours to do a 15 min journey on this day after a bad day at work, I walked the same distance in 50 mins, when shown this comment and asked if she had any quavers packet I got a horrible look that can turn you to stone.

Hey don't care cause I dont let her look at this site. God bless and Goodnight.

If you get done for speeding, from a camera, even in a rental they do chase you for the fine in this country. They employ a debt colection agency to chase you and take you to court if you ignore their notices. My mate tried the ignore bit only to find a court sommons because he thought he could get away with it.

Had a few months at my sisters in Melbourne and as what has been previously stated they do enforce driving offences with a vengeance. Great country though.

Sponsored, well done,stand tall, be proud.

Have a look at this site most Z users obtain their paint requirements from them. I have an azure and they supplied a very good match, plastic is tricky as said in previous answer.

However I did my engine bay (bling) battery cover etc and looks great but of course these bits don't get constant use every day.

Afternoon one & all - just a couple of lines as an intro...

 

Purchased my vehicle just over a month ago, its a "bog standard" - 05 - gun metal grey zed with 22k on the clock, pictures will follow but at the moment its in a bl##dy messy state as i use it as my everyday car and i seem to spend my life following beet lorries to and from work (perk of living in the sticks i suppose)

 

Bit of an impulse buy, had been thinking down the lines of a tt quattro, but a dealer in Hethersett put this on his forecourt and after just over a week of seeing it - it was mine!!...

 

Zed's are not just good they are "put a smile on your face" good, previous cars include peugeot 407 & a nissan navara so driving this is a revelation...

 

Expect plenty of dumb-arsed questions in the future as i know very little about cars and i want to treat this as more of hooby as opposed to just owning a car...

From one dumb-arse to another, your not alone, welcome

Look good to me.

No, enough said.

Hi welcome, had a few good nights out there after losing my shirt on an old nag.

Hey what a great Z accessory just think he'll be ideal for towing the car out of the snow drift. LOL.

Must agree though handsome dogs, get ready for the quick response, spills cleaning kit.

I've done 3 plates this year and if you use the post it will take between 7-14 days. You just need to take this into account when selling or buying, never used the local DVLA but clearly from these post that should speed things up.

Welcome a wee bit colder than usual at the moment.

Little old Lincoln got it last night, foot of snow, total gridlock.

Got about half and inch of snow.

 

The roads haven't been gritted and I managed to get about 20 yards up a very very slight incline before I gave up and shoved the car back in the garage. the 370 is cack in the snow...I don't remember my 350 being as bad??

Oh yes they are,couldnt get mine out the garage let alone on a road. Its now back in there and until it behaves it stays in there.

Now dont laugh but the wifes C1 is better in the snow than my Z.

I'm not listening to any of this not since I posted the best one this Xmas.

Have a look at this, if this doesn't instill your faith in the human race nothing will.

Keep strong and positive, this is when your Dad will need you most, you are in my thoughts.

Jeff

Try these, but I dont see them in the colour you want, worth a phone call though.

To Charlotte,

Carry on, you are a breath of fresh air, ignore these neanderthals at least we got back to some sensibility now.

To the others, never forget that tolerance comes with maturity, eventually you will see it.

never forget, sucking up to the new girl comes with lonliness

 

haha! fraggles....LOL......well I guess you think someone is more attractive when they have a nicer car - me going all psycho-babble on y'all

not really, a munter is still a munter even dressed in a pretty frock

 

Haha! Quality!

Nope you haven't seen it yet
