Any thoughts on this Zed would be appreciated.

I am not against Cat D or Cat C cars, but if going that way would definitely want as much info as possible. Assuming its front end damage because of the bodykit is not really getting all the info. You should try find out the repairer, see if you can get details of what work was done, receipts, photos etc. What I would avoid is trying to buy the cheapest Z you can which is still stretching your budget then find £000s of repairs further down the line, that goes for non-cat cars too - a new clutch and flywheel on a Zed could be £800-£1000 including labour, do you have a slush fund you can call on for repairs to cars which generally cost a lot more than your average warm-hatch?

 

Ultimately, go in with your eyes open.

 

Thanks mate I hear what your saying.

No problem - only mention it as months after I spent £8k on a car I was on the PM to Zmanalex getting a clutch and flywheel delivered next day causing some severe open wallet surgery!

This one needs a roof too you need to factor that in. I also agree the bumpers are awful (as are the wheels) but each to their own. Good luck with your search

Roof will be £1k+ I would have thought? Few owners on here have had the roof done, check with search on the site.
