Hi
I purchased our 2.2 roadster nearly a year ago having finally parted with a 1935 Morris 8 tourer we had owned and driven regularly since we were first married 47 years ago. We had reached the point where we just wanted a convertables in the garage as a counter balance to our Volvo estate, that we could use at any time for any journey without any reservations, so after initially toying with the idea of perhaps an MGB or other similar 'practical classic,' we opted for our Z3 and to date we have enjoyed 3000 miles of fabulous open top motoring in far west Cornwall, the car really is fantastic value for money.
Thank you for the advice about Classic line - they have just provided a very competitive quote limited mileage cover. They seemed very relaxed and easy to deal with - does anybody have any further experience of their service?
Tony

Hello Tony, welcome from Probus, Truro. Where in West Cornwall are you? There are a few Zeds in our neck of the woods but we rarely see them

Near St Just in Penwith - have used the Zed to get to our boat at Mylor but do not often come east of Penzance unless we are going 'up country'.
There are a couple of other Zeds in this patch but have never had any contact.

There are some good roads near you, St Ives to Sennen, St Ives to Madron etc. We'll have to meet up for a natter and some photos for the Zedders here

Hello and :welcome:. I bet it was hard to part with your Morris after 47years. Hope you find the Zed a worthy replacement.

Hi Tony and welcome from me up here near Lincoln. You need to get some Z.org cards from out illustrious leader Gaz Hyde and then slap them on your local Z's and maybe they will do what you did and join the best forum for Z cars. Either way enjoy your car and the forum.:)

Tony.

Welcome from me, Keep out of the Cornish hedges as they aren't forgiving as my friend found out once on the trip from St Ives to St Just, great road though.
