Default 4 days in..

I picked up my ZT190 in December and its been off the road since whilst doing work to bring it up to a roadworthy state. Taxed it on Tuesday and just been driving to and from work to keep an eye on thinks and any other issues there may be...
considering its covered 146k it drives really nice and I'm really happy with it!
Today, at the petrol pumps, a chap asked me about the car and what they are like to own, obviously I mentioned the club..!
Not had a stranger interested in a car I've owned before!
I'm glad I saved the ZT from the scrapper!

They are an interesting car and do attract attention. Perhaps a few pictures of your pride and joy will wet our appetites.

Well if he's desperate, I'm sure you could have one painted.

I have dubbed it 'Frankenzed' because of the stitching!
A cracked bumper is no issue really, will replace it when I get the money. The chassis leg end plate needs replacing as well first, due to a bad repair.

Hi Mark you did well to save her from the scrap heap

Swindon is that what they call Moon Raking county

That's one word to call it Derek! There are a lot more derogatory words for the place.
