  1. I certainly will be avoiding, but I definitely want to make it harder for this git to sell...particularly at the price he has it at. Eventually, someone naive will come along and end up paying way too much. And after reading through the thread, it's obvious this isn't a particularly nice chap to deal with.

     

    Very tempted to waste a good bit of his time as a 'serious buyer', before I report the ad.

    This, apparently is another buyer...so its not that guy now...this guy may or may not be that chap that gave Martin verbal. Sounds like hes another seller.

     

    Ah, I see. Fair enough....I wouldn't want to hound the poor sap, if he's the naive one that bought from the obnoxious one.

  3. Hi all,

     

    I'm still looking for a Zed to buy and I saw this ad. This kind of ad always grabs my attention - I end up dreaming..."Could I actually get the funds together...it looks awesome and the ad sounds great."

     

    Thankfully, I'm not a total mug and eventually happened upon this thread, but I do fear for others. I rarely get proactive about this kinda thing, but I really want to report it to eBay so the ad gets taken down. As Mr. Griffin once said "This really grinds my gears!"

     

    Just to confirm, this is the car in question?

    Seems like all the false claims are back in a live ad.

     

    I take it the main points to contest are - i.e., it doesn't have:

    • 350bhp
    • Full aero gt wide body kit
    • Full interior carbon fibre pack
    • £2k exhaust system

    Did it have the quick shifter when you sold it Payco? I severely doubt that's been added if you didn't fit it.

     

    I just want to have a few confirmations before I progress with reporting the ad, as I am a total noob to the scene.

  4. Hi and welcome, I would look for a HR that has had oil gallery gaskets changed and clutch cylinder as my low millage (55k) has just had the clutch cylinder go and has to be replaced at the cost of £1500 inc clutch and flywheel too. Good luck searching mate

     

    Thanks for the tip Luke, and yes, I am most wary of clutch related issues.

     

    So far, I've seen quite a few cars that fit the bill. Most are stock, but one in particular has the mods I'm keen on already done - exhaust & air intake, banana bush kit, upgraded discs.

     

    But I'm still undecided which way to go.

  5. Welcome along im from Stone and travel through Armitage each morning on my way to work in Alrewas.

     

    What a small world...I grew up in Stone (now live in Wiltshire), but my Dad's still there. Btw, I'm brand new to the forum - just posted in the introductions myself.

     

    Welcome along. We've just moved here, I'm originally from uttoxeter and the other halfs from stoke so we've met in the middle.

     

    The place looks different almost every time I'm up there. I can't stop myself saying "I remember this when it was all just fields!"

  6. Hi all,

     

    Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I'm not an owner (yet), but hopefully very soon - still looking.

     

    I had a lurrvly DC5 for over 5 yrs, but ended up going across to the dark-side for a while (motorbikes). Now it's time to finally time to scratch that itch and get a rear-wheel drive 300+hp play thing. I had settled on a BMW Alpina Roadster up till recently, but after spending quite a while looking around I ended up switching to the Zed...now I simply can't wait!

     

    Ideally looking for a HR coupe. Black would be my preference, but it's not that important. I'd rather have lower mileage and younger than focus on the colour.

     

    Btw, great forum! I'm so glad I landed here as I was very close to heading over to Junction17 to check a few of their Zeds out....needless to say, I won't be doing that after reading the thread about them. Ah, the power of the internet!
