Reservoir Zed

Post by AJ »

Had a heavy nite, so this norning took the top down (2.0degrees) to blow the cobwebs off......
Then a sausage & mushroom bap from a roadside burger bar, and back to paint my conservitory, 1/2 way through so I've jumped on the laptop for 15mins....back out later though, as long as the Missus is happy with my painting I suppose...lol, bet she'll find me something else to do first... :(

Its a bit chilly in the shade....

Cheers.....
I got some issues with finding wheels that look better than these on the Zed. I love the ///M ones....but they won't fit.... and the 18's i've tried make the car look tooo high.

E36 Evo saloons are warming to me though.

All the best.

Gorgeous morning. I drove down through Essex and into central London, roof down, nicely wrapped up and had a blast. Nothing better.

AJ, car looks great, and set off very nicely with a stunning vista behind. Some people just don't know what they are missing and are clearly jealous calling you an idiot.

I have the same colour and engine size and wheels, DONT get rid of the wheels, they look original and great. Like your leather colour as well.
Happy Motoring.
