Adrian where did you go? You missed a seriously good treat at the end. Can't divulge yet but all will be revealed when it can.
Cracking day all round. Weather was a little rubbish at times but it's only March so to be expected. Shame more could attend. You missed a really good day.

A car such as a Zed M at the age it is, as a valuer I wouldn't be concerned about 6 owners especially with the home work you've done to find out where's it been since you sold it...

Coming into spring I'd say £3000 would be fair dependant on just how much paint is really required. Without sounding to much of a chleche it's really worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
