You just know when you see The Car for you! That's how I picked mine and my granddaughter Trinity also picked it without my mentioning that it was my pick! The car has been more than I expected considering I used only my iPhone for everything not actually speaking to any person until it was already in Canada! Glad you landed what you wanted!! JIM

Hmmm I have one that I would let go

Do tell

I couldn't agree more! I have only spoken to the dealer and not actually seen the car but the colour and price jumped out as did the way the car sits. Don't get me wrong I don't expect the car to be perfect or the paint for that matter however, there is no rust, she's not had paint and the panel gaps are all good, realistically its a19 year old car too so it is what it is.

Hello and welcome from Truro. I have a pre facelift 2.8 auto and I love her. Loads of torque and loads of old school nostalgia, fun and enjoyment. That's a nice looking car you have so just enjoy it

I live in Truro and I bought my car from a dealer in Poole, Dorset 3yrs ago. I wasn't looking to buy a sports car but I was driving through the town and saw the car on a garage forecourt. I stopped to have a closer look, the salesman came out and gave me the keys and half hour later, after a good test drive I bought her. And 20,000 miles later she's still gorgeous.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. welcome from me in Hemel Hertfordshire, my 2.8 is a post wide body facelift and more subtle looking than those huge arsed pre's.

RHA, Roy.

A cracking classic car you got , Simon! Wide body, blue color, Zed Star wheels, 2.8 ...
And people say Santa doesn't exists....
Enjoy it !

 

[Simon Blythe]

It turned out not to be what it was advertised to be Not even washed prior to me arriving - not a problem but would have been nice. A lot of the rubber had perished, door handles and aerial, easy fixed I know. Very rusty rear subframe. It has had the head gasket done recently too and the engine bay is as manky as!! It pulled ok but didn't seem overly fast or torquey. We all know these cars need some TLC but I just didn't get that warm fuzzy feeling for some reason. Real shame but as they say, a fool and his money are easily parted.

What I shame. It wasn't the Zed for you Simon

 

[Simon Blythe]

It isn't shame, if he'd have moved on the price of have had a deal but he's convinced he's got a classic car that will pull 3.5k in the spring.

 

[Zeti]

OK it's good you kept eyes wide opened. Next try than!
The hunt is part of the game...
