Hi @Andrew Kaccouris, to the forum from me too in Staffordshire

Hi all,
Have been the proud owner of my Sienna red 2.2i Y plate with 81.5K which was purchased from Ray (Raymond) a few weeks back and have definately caught the 'bug' enjoying the odd weekend commute when the weather permits.
The condition and the fact that it hadn't failed an MOT and of course Ray's vast knowledge and enthusiasm was the convincing factor.
I'm sure many of you know Ray, who has purcahsed a lovely ZM in Topaz Blue.

I have attached a few pics and have only made a couple of minor exterior tweaks.
The first was changing the twin black exhaust tips for Chrome one's 65mm seemed to be the largest that would fit, and secondly ordered some chrome door handles from Germany.

I am planning to attend the Goodwood 'Softop Sunday' meeting this Sunday as Ray kindly contacted me telling me he had entered my Z before selling it to me and it had been accepted for display.

Hopefully Ray will be there, but was wondering if anyone else planning to go, as would be good to meet some of the forum members.

FABULOUS !! In my opinion what would finish it off is a chrome (stainless) windscreen surround and a set of 'staggered' (8.5J rear, 7.5J front) alloys, style 78 or whatever takes your fancy

Hi Synclare,
Excellent suggestion, especially the chrome pillars, but would you know where I could get them from?
With the sports wheels, yes may look at that in the future, only slight niggle would be the extra cleaning involved, but I guess it would set her off nicely.

Welcome Andrew!
It's a rare but great occasion when you can buy a car from a passionate Zorger. And you got a really nice car, from color to engine!
Enjoy the car and the forum!
