Good luck to you and kudos for taking on a ZED at your age
I'll always remember when we had a 17 year old peddling a GT4 around on one of our Wales weekend (it was his mum's car and she was the passenger) and his road positioning and everything else that goes with being a good road driver was spot on from what I and several other members who commented upon at the time said. And the fact we see many young drivers handling quick cars on the limit on track is really inspiring. Yes, its very easy to point to stats about how the majority drive (including the OAP brigade ) but I for one look forward to hear how you get on with the ZED.
And I never understand why owners knock those who have paid a price they think is too high. For me it is good news if potential owners think our cars are worth paying extra for, albeit that might not be what other wannabe's want to see........
