Very nice, muppet. Looks like a great piece of road. And your dad doesn't look at all traumatised by the experience.

My mum likes being chauffeured around in mine - I think she is secretly a bit miffed that I didn't take her out in it at the weekend. :lol:

Will have to take mine for a day out to the seaside one of these days.... wonder if she likes icecream?

Cheers R.

The car looks good muppet and such a nice backdrop.

What a well behaved dad you have, sitting very patiently while
you take the shots. I hope he enjoyed his day out.

Hey Muppet,

Picture 3's flat cap puts me in mind of the two old parties in the merc in the Gumball Rally movie :)
Have you got the booze on tap too? you'll be needing it to ward off the chill at this time of year.
It looks like a fun kinda trip.

:) I love my zed

Just looking again....and he does!

I look a lot like my father. People always remark on the similarities. I still have a full head ofhair though.

Gary, what wheels did you have on that Zed? Alpina style?

I don't just look like him , I act like him. All the threats from youth about turning into your parents are true. I started having these days out after my dad had a stroke , the Zed came after i had mine another thing we have in common ....

Oh and nice pic Gary

:lol: :lol: I was thinking the same, Hey thats not me saying that.. however Muppets response is similar to mine.

I do look the spitting image of my Father, some say my Father looks younger though :|
My Father is actually looking at getting a Z4 so even more spooky :o

The wheels on my car were Alpina 18", really set the car off, but it was a prime example of how the wheels altered the Zeds handling.. masses of grip, but a bit lively at times :shock:

Really nice. They really suit the Z3. Gorgeous shine. Bet you miss her, Gary. Could you not have kept it?
