Was just wondering who else has had these in the past.

 

Have met and spoke with 4 other zed owners so far, and 2 of them used to have hyundai coupes, and one had a celica.

 

I myself started off driving in a hyundai coupe as well.

 

I guess for zed owners the celica or coupe are sort of like a "gateway drug" in a sense, as they follow the same sort of look.

 

Anyone else owned either of these cars before upgrading to a zed?

I've had 5 Celicas. 4 -70's ones, 1x 2000 ST 2x 2000 GT's + 1x 1600 GT and 1 - 81 2000 GT :teeth: Last car was FTO GPX ( just loads and loads of allsorts in-between - I'm obviously ancient :lol: ).

Thanks! I then had a 1.8 A4 whilst I looked for a Z :)

Well this has been enlightening! Was suspecting a few people would have but didn't realize it really was as endemic as i originally thought!

 

Will have a greater level of respect for coupe/celica/MR2 owners in the future knowing that one day they may well be fledgling zed owners some day soon!

My first car, was standard then I caught the "mod bug" and blew the engine :lol: bought a Golf GTI after that, hated it so much I got new engine for the celica, then ended up buying the zed :lol:

My first car was a black Celica VVTI with the dynamic and sports pack, great reliable car, I kept it for 5 years before trading it in for the zed.
