Default New "old" member - I'm coming back!

Hi all. Been a member for a long time, originally had a ZT 1.8t circa 6 years ago and made a huge mistake in selling it (well giving it away really) and wanted back in ever since! Saw Kitts 135+ for sale on the forum and very likely I'll be taking it home this Friday! Just wanted to say hello, and I can't wait to be back in a ZT especially such a sorted one :-)

Sounds great to me mate, a car that isn't your usual focus or astra, has a wonderful community here, great engine for the price is a fortnight in the sun!
