Cracking car hope he gets a good sale.

Looks nice, with a 30mil drop it would pull those wheels off perfectly!!

How easy is it to replace the m badges especially in the grills! I don't fancy trying to pry them off in anyway

Badges are quite easy to remove if you follow Jonttt's advice and heat gently with hair drier. (careful not to get too hot as paint could blister) When warm use either plastic scraper or fishing line and pull off badges.Clean area before fitting new badges

Dental floss is also quite good for removing badges

Jon, hopefully you told the new owner about us

Let us know what replaces it, just make sure its not something boring

Hi Jon- RORY4711 is already a member and he contacted the site recently when he was searching for a ZM. I believe you gave him some sound advise (as always). I feel sure he will be posting pics of the car shortly

I will look for an alternative to the Z but will purchase independantly of my son,who as you will remember was joint owner. As he now lives/works in Rugby the car was hardly ever driven.

Best of look to you all-John

Rory has got himself a great car there

Evening All;

And it just remains for me to say a big thank-you to all concerned - you know who you all are, and that having taken delivery today I will be back in touch when (a) I get my replacement camera ( b) mug-up on how the camera works and (c) how to post pics as per the forum advice.

Oh yes, and (d) , when I recover after listening to the top-down 6000-7000 prm sound-track I created when I was approaching home. I was too much of a scaredy-cat - schhpelling ? - to try it earlier.

Rgds

Good luck with the new car Ken, I'm sure you'll be brave and hit the rev limiter a few times
