Re: What did you buy your Z3 this week ?
Recently replaced all four tyres with Goodyear Eagle F1s - should have done so ages ago, as the car behaves really well on them. Then this week replaced the wiper blades (no shortage of rain lately :( ). Got some Michelin Stealth 20" on offer now in Asda for £7.50 each. They look fine and clear...

Hi Pete - the mix of aviation and Zeds is a good one, we really enjoyed the event at East Mids with you a while back.
Please put Lesley, Me and our Red Zed on your list to meet at Six Hills.

Re: New plastic toy
Hi Gazza, Congratulations, looks great in red (perhaps i'm biased, my Z3 being in that colour). A unique car. Took a look around Hinckley Leics, today as they had a host of classics in the town. There was a nice black Z1 there getting a lot of attention. Enjoy the open top, door down motoring. Mark ...

Hi Wavesong and welcome to Zed ownership. Like you I'd admired them from afar for too long then got mine 3 1/2 years ago - they are great fun. Yours looks mighty fine, and that rear screen looks in good clear condition. Just a note of caution here, avoid putting the hood down whilst it is cold (say ...

Re: a very merry Christmas!
Wishing all forum members a very happy festive period and all the best for the new year. 2014 has been a great year in meeting such nice people with Zeds at Silverstone, Shepshed Watermill and East Mids Aero Park - special thanks to all those who organised and hope to meet up again in 2015.

Hi Ci, Count me in too. We did a loop around Yorkshire in the Zed mid June staying in Harrogate, Scarborough and near Beverley. The county is everything you say, and would be a great place to meet up/cruise. There is a good Classic Car club event that takes place in Beverley town centre around that ...

Both of them worked hard during the week, and whilst not in the position to buy expensive new cars were both very enthusiasti...

Re: Wave goddamit, wave
I agree, it is disappointing. A bit embarrassing when there is no return of wave as well
But I am inclined to persevere for the time being, we can all wave at one another on the parade lap at Silverstone

Regarding the call for numbers in attending what looks likely to be a fabulous day for the Z fraternity, I guess the use of promotional flyers has been considered ?
