  1. Interesting you picked yours up on the same day as me and although mine was s/h (68 miles ) it is has only just done 2k miles - half of which was going to Wales last week and a little sight seeing so got to find out a little more about the car and added my comments in red against yours. But as I saved some £30k over a similarly equipped Cayman I think its great value for money and a worthy successor to the 350, and have no regrets but having said that I may look back in years to come and when my grandchildren ask me what was the best car I had I expect I will say the 350 - and by that I mean the 2004 MY03 model I had as opposed to the MY06.
  2. Have you got a very recent photo, or someone who can vouch the slam panel being there - might help when you confront the service manager with 'evidence'.
  3. Are you saying you used the same garage that resulted in you starting this thread - surely not?
  4. Time to order that 370 roadster Mart

    Sold to alessandro - post locked at OP's request.
  6. Have you made sure all 3 plungers are working correctly - testing each in turn will help eliminate if one (or the attendent wiring) is faulty.
  7. Man after my own heart there - and nice vid Fran
  8. Having driven that pass and others in the area in a 350 and having caught the front aprons on the tight cambered turns there I can fully understand why it is not lowered for practical reasons, and as much it may look better Living in an area full of humps and enjoying trips to Wales and the Lakes is the reason why I did not lower the 350 or will be doing that to the 370, and I cannot justify the cost of cockpit adjustable suspension for the few times using a lowered ZED would be suitable. And having seen how lowered ZEDs have struggled when road conditions don't suit, as much as lowering improves the looks repairing the damage and restricting the driving enjoyment does not always make it worthwhile, IMHO.
  9. bet you do when its you but the poor old ZED is left unloved - cue Husky
  10. Welcome to the forum and 370 ownership - on my 3rd Zed and still grinning
  11. A shame that yours and Gemmas lives are being dictated by a 'war' that should never be. Whilst the army may be your career I can't see many choosing that posting, apart from from being with good mates but the stories coming home about what you guys are going through is heart wrenching. But hats off to you and everyone else out there no matter how justified or otherwise the cause is. But then they go and post you so you miss the Wales runs - how inconsiderate especially as we thoroughly enjoyed your presence last October. I reckon we ought to put something together for your return in November, although the weather conditions might be a bit of a shock compared to what you will have endured during the previous 7 months
  12. You won't have time getting everyones orders in
  13. Looking good - in red of course Couldn't help noticing where you had parked - lawfully? -otherwise don't leave your car there too long or they might bury it
  14. Yes you can, but only 2 days before the start of the month. Did you know if you get your car taxed at the Post Office on the 30th or 31st March you pay pre April Car Tax increase even if the tax is from the 1st April Something to know for the future I got my years tax starting 1/4/10 for £405 at the PO on the 25 March - guess I was lucky
  15. Thanks guys for the good wishes - but a few years to go yet before I get me state pension Spent my birthday what I enjoy doing most - driving the Zed - some 200+ miles in Wales and including snow covered roads, as well And can confirm the 370's are just as good at hanging the back end out on leaving roundabouts as the 350's But what really made the day was ChrisS and his partner Stef popping into Moreton to say hello and presenting me with a card and a ali 'Z' key ring he had spent 3 hours making - I am but very honoured someone who I had not previously met on here and only exchanged pms and a calls went to so much trouble - so Chris and Stef not only was it a real pleasure to meeet you guys but a very big thank you for making it a truly memorable day.
  16. As the salesman made the mistake, its probabaly more about the salesman losing his commission given the sum involved Best to haggle for free servicing or something else that the salesman might be able to give as 'compensation'.
  17. All feels fine - but trying them around Wales over the next few days I used to worry about wheel bearing wear and stud shearing etc but the feedback I've seen on hee over the years suggests those fears are unfounded, as long as quality parts are used and ones Andy (Kudos) supplied have an excellent reputation.
  18. Whats that, your 3rd or 4th year on here - seems longer really Can you not count.... Joined: Wed Apr 15, 2009 5:51 pm Posts: 2528 joined after me and has 20 billion times more posts...... guess I am more or a reader than a poster guilty - thats the trouble with a being a mod, as you have to read every post (not just the ones you want to), I am afraid the side stuff dosn't get much attention As I remember my old school report - must try harder But it stilll seems Rich has been around forever and long may it stay that way

    My thoughts too - you get the sun bouncing off that could be hugely distracting, and I agree with the majority - it looks naff............
