welcome im new here as well a biker at heart but always wated a zed so im looking as well . mmmm i think ive made my mind up and looking for a roadster . fancy belting through the alps next year with the top down lol . good luck with your search

see a dark blue roadster today on the A22 down towards purley outside a tyre shop . anyone on here

Thanks people what a great bunch of people on this forum .actul replies and in detail.im searching as we speak.

Personally I`m not a fan of soft tops. I don`t think we get enough nice weather in this country to make it worthwhile having to put up without a proper roof over your head just for the odd few occasions when you might get it down.

If I was abroad with the sun out and the roof down everyday I`d probably have one.

yep theres also that to think about . and if the motor goes south thats expensive mmm

If im honest, I wasn't really interested in the GT when I got mine.

Heard the leather seats are less grippy than the cloth and im not a fan of heated seats, the sat nav is pants, I never use cruise control and the Bose was a bit sensitive to things like turning it on, being cold, being warm or if the day had a Y in it.

Oh and the not making quick decisions is a good thing when buying a Z Buy with your head and not your heart. Find the right one that's been looked after, there are a few member cars up for sale at the moment i'd start there.

 

Edit:

Like this one for example

There are a few of us on here that are older than you so you are not too old.

 

I also left biking when I felt things were getting stupid, and lost a couple of mates. Takes a fair time to get them out of your system but you eventually stop missing them.

thanks mate yea its time to hang the leathers up . what about size though ive been told i might be to tall

hiya all im in essex and have loved the 350 for years . im a biker as my first love but to be honest things are getting a bit silly out there now on a bike and i feel after a few incidents with close friends its time to get back onto 4 wheels and get rid of my hayabusas . sooo its time to look about for the right car . as long as im not to old for a 350 at a very young 52 mmm lol or should i be looking for an old jag lol . anyway il let you all know when i find what im looking for as long as i can get in it . im 6.4 tall ive been told the 350 might be to low but im yet to find out lol
