Hi All
I bought my 1st Zed a couple of months ago after admiring them for some years and have enjoyed reading lots of info on here. There is a lot of knowledge out there. I dare say I'll be picking your brains soon.

Anyway she's a 2002 2.2 Sport in Aegean Blue in quite good nick, bags of miles but FSH. Everything that should work does so I am really pleased.

As long as its not been raining I've had the roof down but as I'm using her as a daily drive I'm not sure now the dark nights are here - what are your thoughts, is it too poncy roof down in the dark?

Anyway I've seen enough posts to realise you all want to see her so - what do you think?

Cheers for now.

Welcome to the forum Mint.

Lovely pictures of your Zed.

Good choice of engine, what a lovely sound the 2.2 makes.

Hi Mint and welcome to the forum

As Jamezee says - an excellent choice of model

(We are completely impartial here)
The blue and cream is a lovely looking looking combo - not sure I recall seeing white hoops before either

(waits to be shot down in flames)
Driving with the roof down at night is on no way "poncy" especially if it's frosty

Nice example, never seen the cream interior before.
There are plenty of threads on the best Leather Cleaners on here, think you're going to need them

Good find

Extended leather on the roll hoops is rare and works well on your zed.

aceman · Post by **aceman** » Thu 03 Nov, 2011 12:58

WOW

You have got yourself a lovely car there with a very rare colour combo especially with the roll hoops, a car to truly cherish.

I think it looks awful.....

Awfully good!!!

welcome to the forum!! lovely colour combo.. Very rare..

Mint · Post by **Mint** » Thu 03 Nov, 2011 21:08

Thanks for all your comments guys, interesting about the rarity. I did get some talk from the guy I bought her from about there only being 300 built and of those only 80 came to Europe. Perhaps he was telling the truth after all.

Hope to meet up with some of you in the future.

Wow what a great combo.

I can't tell on my iPhone but those look like M seats which are even rarer in that colour. Would have been a special order I think.

Welcome to the forum.
