I bought a Z1 at the weekend, and have found this forum.
It is a 1989 build, chassis AL00366. I believe everything is original on the car, but am just starting to learn about Z1's. It has covered 21,000 miles in it's 21 year life.
My first task is to get it insured. I have searched the forum and will by trying Hagerty tomorrow.
Any advice on owning a Z1 appreciated.

That's nice and low mileage at 1000miles per year, and as for the advice, just don't drive it like Ben! and look forward to seeing the pictures in the top of the Z1 forum.
Open and close with German style and ingenuity!

Welcome. Have you checked out this website for info about the Z1?
And you're going to have to come on a cruise with us sometime so we can all drool.

do you actually like driving at all or are cars to you just a manifestation of some sort of pathological mother complex ?

Welcome To The Z1 Forum
Welcome to a new world!!
Don't listen to Terry, the Z1 was built to drive and not just to look at!
My Z1 is in Holland having some love and care at the moment ( I hope!)
However I can't wait to get my hands on her asap..
Please post a pic o your new baby when you have time.
Where are you based in the UK and do you plan on doing anything to your Z1?
all the best,
Ben..

Many thanks for all the advice so far. I am on the case with insurance and will try the suggested companies so far.
Can you let me know the best place to post some pictures in order that they can be seen on this forum and I will upload some.
Bluebaur, I work in Lincoln and live near Newark, so am very close to you. The car is in Derby at the moment having oil, filters etc. changed as it has been stood in a showroom for 9 months and then dealers lock up for five months.
I look forward to meeting you all and starting to learn more about Z1's.

Welcome DPW, look forward to seeing some pics - if you do a search you can find plenty of help on how to upload pics (I find photobucket the easiest way)
