The day you picked up your zed....


Recommended Posts

Do you find the 1st CD you loaded in your zed on collection day now triggers a surge of "happy hormones" as it brings back memories of that glorious occasion :teeth:

 

On one fine day in Aug '05 it was Missy Elliot: the cookbook that supplied the tunes while I spent the whole day feeding a tank of Shell's finest through my beloved Zed's internals.

 

Not my favourite album by any means but one that now has a special place in my collection :p

the day i picked mine up i popped Faithless into the cd changer(god is a dj) to find out the n/s speaker only worked intermitantly.

once home it was ripped it out and replaced with a sony unit. :lol:

My whole 1hr journey home was enjoying the sound of the V6 and the exhaust. I hear that tune every day and always turn the music down. Those same goose bumps return every time I open the window. There is no soundtrack better than that!

When I bought mine, I was rocking out to Kings Of Leon's first album, the weather was relatively decent and I had a big **** off smile on my face for the entire journey. It was a good day :clap:

i dont know what i was listening to on that day, probably didn't put any music on. But not the Prodigy album Invaders Must Die makes me grin like a maniac, like today driving home from work :cloud9::cloud9::cloud9:

+1 Why even bother with music! The Zed makes an awesome noise! B)

Mine came with 3 cds already in it from the previous owner - Life on Mars, New York Soul and Groove Armada... Not exactly an eclectic mix! :lol:

 

Besides, I too was listening to the V6 Symphony Orchestra all the way home!

Had a 4 hour journey home, cd changer was empty but I did find an eric clapton tape in it :lol:

 

Chose to listen to the v6 purr instead

 

Given that the Zed came out in 2003, I do still wonder why Nissan felt the need to include a tape deck? :shrug:

 

Still - came in handy for my ghetto iPod/tape mod thingy...

I've listened to the same song as the first track in each of the last 4 cars I've owned: "Buck Rogers" by Feeder. It's a great song, but it's the first line that really makes it my New Car Song. :D

My car was delivered around 7pm to my house, it was throwing it down with rain but i still took it out. Was surprised at how well it handle in the wet compared to my previous Z4.

 

I collected the Z4 from a dealership and that was more nervous as i had a 120 mile return trip, sat on the motorway at 50mph for a while, it was my first expensive car and i was 24.

I had BigElf blasting away. Roof down music up / off / back on again. Fantastic.

In every car I've ever bought my first track is always by Michael Jackson....I know it's a bit gay but i love a bit of MJ....I'll be putting together a new MJ compilation for my drive home when i pick up my first Zed next week :D

Posted

I had the ipod plugged in but i had the volume down so barely heard it and just sat listening to the exhaust note :), do still love windows down cant wait till summer (that is if i keep it long enough to enjoy it that long).

.........I was using crutches :thumbdown: Managed to perform a miracle and just about drive her home :teeth: Music? Too nervous to mess around with that, left the Mrs to load the music when we were home, I just took some more co-codamol and passed out :crutches:

 

First song I played was The Black Eyed peas, "I've got a feeling" B)

Tuuuuuuuuuuune! :D:thumbs:

I've had the car since July last year and to this day it hasn't had a CD played in it, I don't know if it skips or not and I really don't care. I just love the sound of that rich V6 purring and growling through the Milltek :yahoo::thumbs:

Really don't have a clue what the first tune was I listened to in either of my Zed's, I was more excited to drive them than mess around with music. Although when I popped a CD in my 350 I found out one of the rear speakers didn't work and it was disappointing. However the 370 sound system was a vast improvement, probably something like 2Pac - Picture me rollin' was fitting.

I stuck Nickleback in a blade GT in the showroom at Sheffield I think it was or maybe Chesterfield ........... warmed up the speakers and turned up the volume to 11 to check out the Bose ......... never bought from there but I still like Nickleback

My CD player had a fault with it so listened to the V6 engine all the way from Lithunania where there was 2 feet of snow in January and drove back to the UK :teeth:

Posted

i had a long listen to Engine ;) well about 10-15mins lol seemed like an eternity at the time :#1:

 

then whacked the CD "In Silico" in, Track9 "Granite" by Pendulum

Great driving tune!
