Daveyboy11 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 I went on my first long distance journey on New Year's Day since buying my zed up to Manchester and back.... Absolutely beautiful, effortless to cruise along and great fun when you want it to be. I came from a Fiesta ST and that wasn't the nicest car to drive for hours on end so this is a new experience for me! Can't wait to take her to the Nurburgring in a few months time Quote
chirag1988 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 I bought mine just last month and am yet to hit the motorways. Looking forward to a trip up to my family's in Luton at the end of month to boot it up the M1 Quote
GMballistic Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 The Zed is a fantastic motorway cruiser. Have to be careful though as if you put your foot down you can see big numbers really quickly. Quote
Daveyboy11 Posted January 4, 2014 Author Posted January 4, 2014 Yeah I do love it's lazy approach to speed but like you say it can be dangerous! Quote
Daveyboy11 Posted January 4, 2014 Author Posted January 4, 2014 Where did you set out from Davey? My house in Borehamwood Hertfordshire Quote
chirag1988 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 Where did you set out from Davey? My house in Borehamwood Hertfordshire That must have been a nice drive back from Manchester! Quote
Jp606 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 It's fantastic for long journeys, such an all round great car. Sensible and comfortable when you need it, fast and lairy when you want some fun. Quote
370Ad Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 It's dangerous though with 300bhp to use things can get silly quite quickly! Usually stick cruise on or I get tempted too easily. Quote
Mopedmark Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 Yer the longer your in the driving seat the better the drive becomes Quote
350zedd Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 Bought mine last weekend and drove the 120 mile back home from Chester down through Wales. Found myself overtaking lorries in 6th due to the great torque at hand. Nice effortless cruise! 1 Quote
Humpy Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 That's what the Zeds are best at. Cruising and the loud pedal Quote
zxrob Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 I find the Z nice and comfy on long journeys and a real lazy drive When I collected mine a few months back I promised myself to drive like " miss daisy" on the way back but found myself so wanting to pin it Rob Quote
Jixaman Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Its a GT, its what they do... So wish I had cruise though... Can it be retrofitted? Quote
