Fixed link and although i may not agree it's the best colour at least it's a Cowley

I used his website quite a bit and I used to post on the forum. He's got some good reviews, a little too obsessed with weird far eastern only models, but overall a good website.

I've had my Sept 2004 ZT-T from new and think it's a fantastic car. Before the ZT the longest I'd ever kept a car was 5 years.

So many left.....but 21 a day are being scrapped.

In December 2012, there were 74,909 registered
By December 2016, 44,180 of those were left
On average, 7,682 were lost each year, or 12%
At that rate, it will take 5 years, 3 months until half of those left today are lost

It's a very well written piece and some of the comments under are interesting
