  1. I'm just outside Ashford - look forward to seeing your shinyness around town.
  2. Yes - and enjoying every minute of being a zed owner!
  3. First job, Ad agency and exhibition design , parent -the toughest job of the lot but , nursery school supervisor, now Higher Level Teaching Assistant.
  4. Thanks for your advise - we have been on various sites. Car currently insured with Footman James so will speak to them tomorrow.
  5. My 20 yr old son is trying to get an insurance quote on a 1983 MK1 Golf - needs classic car insurance. Can anyone recommend a site/company where we can get an online quote on a Sunday. Any help appreciated. Thanks
  6. Great work - I love to see how nature reclaims what is hers. A reminder of how fragile we are! Enjoy being back in the zed.
  7. Have you thought of Norway, bit of a mission to get there I know as there are no direct ferries now. We did it several years ago but flew to Bergen and hired a VW Golf. The roads, scenery are awesome up in the mountains and all those tunnels, I think there are about 900 in Norway, that should keep you busy Norway is pricey but worth it if the weather is fine.
  8. We parked next to a beautiful black GT4 in Rye, E.Sussex today, around 1pm. Was it you? We flyered it just to make sure they know where to go Great drive today from Charing to Rye nice walking/shopping/lunch and a lush white R8 soft-top!! - proper girls day out
  9. Hola - At last a decent car spotted in Barcelona - GM Zed at Placa des Espanya at 9.30pm spotted from the top of the Placa de Tores les Arenes
  10. She looks much happier now - well done top job. Lots of black zeds on the forum this weekend having some special attention Lucky them and us
  11. Top job - fantastic car, fabulous photos, fascinating choice of locations 2.4.7.18. for me.
  12. Yep - I used the cleaner wax that came with the kit.
  13. Keep going, the finished result is definitely worth the effort
  14. Here are some new decent photos of my now much shinier car, I used Meguiars Smooth Surface Clay Kit for the first time! Very pleased with the results And the sun came out for the first time in a few days too
  15. Decided not to try to sort this out myself but took it up to the local garage, who are very helpful, and they put her on the computer. Turned out to be an oxygen sensor on the exhaust, only took ten minutes and no charge, result so no big hassle The light is off and the car is fine. Hooray Spent the afternoon claying the car for the first time, soooooo shiny will wax it in the morning. Thanks for the advise. Heather
  16. Thanks Dave - have looked at the website and will give that a go tomorrow. Where does the code show up?
  17. This is Charlotte: the light was just a solid colour, there was no flashing or anything like that so will look at website later, thanks Dave
  18. Hey Azure Blue, 53 plate, Who was that following me today from the Park Gate Inn, Hollingbourne to Willington Street, Bearsted, Kent at 3pm today. Lovely shiny car, looked great, a mini convoy for a few miles Heather
  19. Hi everyone Can anyone tell me what happens next? For seemingly no reason the MI light came on today. Stopped immediately to read the 'owners manual' did as suggested, drove home slowly as it did not need towing. Does this just happen? the car sounds and drives fine. Any suggestions or prognosis greatly appreciated. Heather
  20. Great choice, looking good. I bought my 05 black GT last November and am sooooo proud of her too. Should see you around Kent and beyond - I am near Ashford. Enjoy Heather
  21. We aren't all hopeless at parking - i usually take up 4 bays so no one can get near my car with their car or trolly. I am also a teaching assistant in fact an HLTA, higher level teaching assistant we sure do more than cut paper, we educate your children and given the chance i would teach them to park properly but my class are 8 and 9 year olds. Heather - very proud and careful Zed owner.
  22. Job well done Martin - Received mine on Friday - had it delivered to work so in perfect condition. Great to see so many beautiful cars and excellent photography. Congratulation to all those included. I don't know who is the proud owner of which, it would be nice to know. Mine has pride of place in the kitchen where everyone can see it.

  24. Same thing been happening to me so sent old ones to be regassed at SGS Engineering in Derby who were very helpful on the phone saying most can be tested and regassed for £12.50 each. In the end got new ones from SGS as the extended warranty decided to pay out for new ones at £25.99 each. Very quick efficient service too. Boot works perfect now, easy job. . Fitted them back on myself ( with the help of a son and a broom handle). Heather
