Right, I knew zelda years ago after she was put together by pete (PPS) and as those older ones here know his work was second to none. I saw zelda and thought wow, the car is so nice and IMO everything looked spot on. I didn't even mind the big spoiler, the back lights at the time were 3 rings type of thing if that makes sence.

 

Anyway, to cut a long story short I've just been Reading the for sale advert, she's still a lovely motor but I don't think it's as nice as it was before (I have pitures somewhere). The 99 spec rear lights are nice but I gotta say I liked the old ones (only on her) better. I also thinkthe newer wheels look too big and leaves the stance a but off for me.

 

I'd like to be clear here, I'm in no way pitting the seller down when I say this but I done get why he is stating...

Well here we have the result of my personal project which has taken almost 2 years to complete.

I don't get what he did apart from change the lights and wheels which could have even been done before he bought it.

 

Am I completely missing something here???

 

I like the fact he's putting it up for sale at a high price mind but I have to think it'll never sell for that price especially when jays comes up on the same page and looks oh so pretty... I would buy jays for the other half if I had the money for sure providing nowt was wrong with it etc.

 

I'm not that opiniated normally but felt the need on this occasion.

Link to the advert?

Sorry, here you go

I'm in full agreement with you tbh, the car USED to look a lot better. I hate those lights, but on that car, even I have to say they look good.

Yup, all the "work" the owner of Zelda has done has ruined my favorite Zed :cry:

I still don't get what took him 2 years to do. To be honest he made it sound like he built it when he didn't, peter did hence it was sooooo well made.

 

I say put her back so she don't look odd and it might sell (but not for £15k).

I love them on zelda but not normally too fussed. She somehow made them look good :)

Such a shame!!

 

It was way better before.

tbh the new wheels are the bit I hate about it, the original wheels looked awesome!

I'm confused. Is Jays and 'Zelda' the same car? If so why is there talk of £15K it's under 5K?

no post was edited to remove zelda link

Agree with that:yes: they are the same wheels as mine and the only ones i would change those with would be the ones on lorenzos:rockon:

How come the Zelda link was removed? Because of the trader?

Seems he is a banned member but I don't get why the link should be removed for purpose of this thread. It wouldnt really help him sell it surely. If grooved or a mod can confirm the link to eBay is against the aup or whatever then I can add the photos??

It'll be tied into the rule about only subbed members can sell, and banned members cannot do anything, nor have anything done for them, type rule. It's unfortunate, because I'd rather see a car like that come back into the club tbh, although I doubt it will at that price.

It's got no chance at that price. Although I would like to see them selling up there.

I see the rule but we wouldn't normally remove an eBay link but if the comittee prefer not to have the link that's no prob. Anyone fancy putting some of the pics up cos I'm not on my pc ATM

Sorry, here you go

Bumper and skirts have not changed on Zelda. Your looking at Jay's Z instead

Link to Jay's is just going to confuse people, thinking that its Zelda

Hold on a minute here, are we not talking about 2 different cars here?

 

I thought Zelda was a completely different car to the one Jay has up for sale? :confused1:

 

Jay's car:

 

 

EDIT: Ahhh i'm glad i'm not the only one! :rofl:

So really if this is basically saying that you don't like "Jay's" car i think you ought to be careful not to offend him as it's a lovely machine.

I thought that was your saab post?

i'm now confused.com

I asked him to link the pics up, so he posted up old pics of Zelda, a link to the ebay listing for the car and also for comparison, he linked up Jays ebay listing for his Z, which is a shorty Wideboy in a similar colour, unfortunately the link to Zeldas Ebay listing was removed because the owner/seller of the car is banned from the forums.
