mei Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Evening all, I thought it was about time I made myself known so... I'm Meirion, I'm from South Wales and this has just moved into the garage: It's 56 plate 350Z GT with 15K on the clock. I sold a VX220T in order to buy the Zed and I've been really impressed so far. As much fun as the plastic tub was, I've started to get a bit old now and look forward to my creature comforts such as a heater that works and window seals that can keep water out. Having previously owned a TVR Chimaera I wanted to return to something naturally aspirated that made a nice noise and could be entertaining to drive but without needing constant tinkering on the weekends. So last weekend I was mostly tinkering under the bonnet fitting a Pop Charger! Anyway nice to meet you all. Mei Editted to add: I rarely see any 350Zs out on the roads however I spotted Ian this morning on the A40. I heard you before I saw you. Quote
Vik54 Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Nice one, congrats - and welcome to the forum Quote
alessandro Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Welcome Nice car history you got there I'm sure that the Z wont disappoint you Quote
mei Posted November 9, 2009 Author Posted November 9, 2009 Thanks for the welcome guys. I'm a SW PistonHeads run regular so I'll be stretching the legs of the Zed around the Brecon Beacons whenever weather allows. For now though I'm just happy familiarising myself with the car. It's quite different to the VX although it does seem to have some of the muscle car character of the TVR. Quote
Ian Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 3 years & I have finally been spotted I missed you though, I was half asleep at that time of day though Quote
martinmac Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Hi and welcome to the forum. Dont miss the Wales runs next year. Quote
introspect Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Very nice picture, looks really shiny! Quote
mei Posted November 9, 2009 Author Posted November 9, 2009 Ian: I was in the stealth mobile (Vectra) so you wouldn't have noticed me. I followed for a couple of miles with the windows down. I'll make sure I'm at next years Welsh meets. Thanks again for the welcome chaps. Quote
Ian Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 That could be why I didn't see you then We are having a breakfast meet over at Cribbs Causeway later this month if you fancy it Quote
Muttley Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Fookin' gorgeous looking Zed, congrats and welcome to the forum. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 ekona on here also came from a bath tub to the Zed as well. Glad to see you on board, and Quote
bronzee Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Welcome to the forum. What a stunning, dramatic pic as the others have commented on. Are you a photographer, or just handy with the camera? Quote
mei Posted November 10, 2009 Author Posted November 10, 2009 Cheers! I did a documentary photography degree many moons ago but never managed to find a job in the profession. I guess I just wasn't good enough but I still take the camera on the PH runs: The breakfast meet sounds interesting. I'll try and make it along if that's OK. Quote
Chilli Red Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Hi Meirion Lovely looking Zed you have there. Welcome to the forum Sarah Quote
