I have owned 3 Zeds and enjoyed everyone. My current Zed is probably the best and the most powerful that I have owned and the most expensive. I have just showered money on it to get it just the way a Zed should be, fast, reliable and desirable. But when I drive it now it is beginning to feel toooooooo quick, both on power and handling. It feels like a rocket propelled go-kart which is probably partly due to my everyday driver being a Disco TD5. I am now aware that someone of my age getting out of a Zed must look a bit odd as I am closer to 70 than 60, and really these motors are a young mans pocket rocket. I feel that I now should be driving a Masseratti Quadroporti, or an XK8 or even a Bentley GT. My car does look like it should belong to a younger man. I think it may be decison time.:blink:

John, i have the same prob....i guess you know what silver streak looks like!

 

I have 2 youngsters working for me and they love it! and often say i look stupid at my age driving it:scared::wheelchair:

 

And my mates sons who drink with us state the same, they tell me its a waste of a car................and i am 42!!!!!!!

 

I f your heart is telling you to sell then sell but dont be pushed into it because of what others may think.enjoy it for what its worth:wink:

Yes, I geuss you are in the same boat regarding the car attracting attention but you are only 42 Dave, I didn't buy my first Zed until I was almost 60 and have enjoyed every moment of driving it. I still marvel at its looks and its performance and most of all the engineering thats gone into it. I love 'em. Its just that I do not know where to fix my pension book and bus pass holder :biggrin: As you say 'enjoy it for what its worth'. I will not be making any quick decisions about selling but may just keep an eye open for something a bit more laid back. I'm glad that your Zed now appears to be sorted, they can be bitches at times. regards John

Thats the important part, problem solved...

The trouble is Dave, that engineering also requires a lot of maintenance which = a good toolkit which = time in the garage wearing overalls which = less time for other pursuits. I do love 'em tho'.:tt2:
