Why have I sorn'd the Zed. The first time I've ever sorn'd a car in my life and last night it was 15 degrees !

I live in Glasgow ! 15 degrees I'd take as a reasonably decent summer temp here lately !

I think I'm gonna insure it. I miss it too much. Come in @BMBabe, come in, sort me out for insurance !

And I'm the other way Lex. First time I've kept the zed on the road. I hate the winter months, dark mornings, dark nights, constant rain so the zed hasn't moved in weeks. It desperately needs a good clean and I can't even be arsed to do that at the moment. I won't leave it on the road next winter. I prefer knowing it's tucked up, diconnect the battery and forget about it till spring.

Yeh Grumpy, if it was on the road it may have only had 1 or 2 runs out. The tyres I've mentioned on here somewhere, they're reasonably new and came with the second hand alloys but are simply dangerous in the wet. So there's no real point in putting it on the road unless I change them. Tyres + insurance + tax b4 xmas aint happening. I'll make do with the CL500 for fun for now. I do miss the zed more than I thought I would though.

So @Lexybhoy you're trying to tell us you're roughing it in the CL500

It's fun Jack, but it's no Z. Great for straight lines and noise but just not the same. I'm already a little bored of it tbh, not the looks of it as it's stunning, but driving it is just a little sedate at times.

I'm beginning to get to grips with mine now Lex, not had the traction control off yet but getting used to rear wheel spin up if/when you give it a bit too much.:D:D
