Ownership

stevedj · 17th March 2008, 04:52

Was just wondering; how long has everyone had their 260 for? Had mine a week & not regretting getting it. I want to keep it for as long as possible & right now there is nothing out there that remotely interests me as a replacement.

Approaching two years. No regrets - just enjoying it more and more, and looking forward to many more years of ownership.

I was one of the first private owners of a ZT260SE - January 2004 & parted with it in December 2006, so nearly 3 years. At the time I may have been the longest owner of one of these cars & only parted with it due to buying my ZT-T & running out of money!!!!

Thats not going to get much reaction ok then...what is it with the ride ok if you happen to live somewhere on the Nurburgring but not in town.Oh yes the overun between shifts/revving,might as well have 260 litres of custard under the bonnet.Have bought a IAC restricter from the states but have not fitted it yet.Also it wanted more noise so fitted X power exhausts,should have listened to you guys,they just make the overrun sound worse....come back. :lol:.
