Going to start this thread for members to post up what they did each day to there zed. I will start with getting my MOT this morning. So what did you do today on your 300?:cool3:

Started up Spare Zed number 2 for the first time in over a month, still sounds great but has a slight tick on the lifters that wasn't there last time, shame I can't take this one for a spin. 😢

The tick will be from the oil falling down the engine while it's been sitting for a long time. Run it on idle for about 20mins and as the oil gets moved to the top of the engine the tick will disappear. Mine did it on Thursday after five months of not being run

Started to break the black zed today as the sun was out.

Stripped the front of the interior to get the dash out, plan was to transplant this dash to better zed but 

unfortunately the condition of the dash wasnt great and the plastics on it are very brittle and lots of cracks.

Took the Zed out for a little drive around the Oxfordshire countryside - we arrived at Rousham and spent a few hours wandering around the grounds in the spring sunshine...... 🙂 

Nice part of the world Richard. Blue does seem to look its best in front of the yellow Cotswold stone.

I was fortunate enough to be selected to show at the Jap-themed Goodwood Breakfast Club today and even luckier that the weather held out for it! I haven't been to a Breakfast Club meet in almost a decade and was thoroughly impressed by the number and sheer variety of cars and bikes on show. I must have walked at least 1/3 the way around the track + paddocks, control tower parking etc...

Unfortunately the Jap cars barely filled one paddock, whereas Brit cars filled two and all the usual high performance / modern filled all the otherwise-prime spots around Goodwood. And anyone and anything else that turned up got to park on the track.

A massive shame that we only have 1x Z32 representing today (me) as I know @AndrewG had also applied and never heard back. Disappointing as there were several NSX, RX7, Supra, 350z, etc...I hope it was just an error and nothing more.

I made short reel for my IG which you can see here...

I have just dropped mine off at the paint shop, to have the damage fixed following the little rear end shunt in March..... 

I should have it back Friday 🙂 

....And today I collected my Zed from the paint shop....!

I also had the OS rear quarter resprayed, as I have never been 100% happy with that panel since 2018. Oh, and I had the spoiler re-done too; the fibre glass had cracked above the brake light screws.... 😉

They did a very good job, the colour matches perfectly! Albeit after I got home, I noticed they forgot to paint the lower part of the rear bumper, so I'll have to drop it back for a day next week. It's just a blemish on the textured part of the lower LH corner, an easy fix - but it did bother me a little that it wasn't done.

He's is a good guy though - proper old-school skilled sprayer... He's recommended by all the classic car owners in the surrounding villages!

Looks fab Richard.

Today I used my Zed a little.....

I had a dental appointment first thing, then Julia and I took the scenic route home, via a couple of garden centres. Don't these cars look great in the sunshine 😉

Looks the b..locks bud 

Nothing today, as the weather was a mixed bag. But yesterday, I did this..... 🙂

 

 

 

It was a nice sunny day here in The Chilterns today - so we took the Zed our for a little drive to Stowe Gardens.....

I daily drove mine to work yesterday, wanted to get a picture of it next to some brand new double deckers, but they had all left the depot when I got there. Only had a few old Volvo's and a couple of Weights shitedeckka when I got there! I had 4 MX5 wave at me, one lady was next to me at the red light and was loving it, taking pictures and everything!

Was last weekend now but got the zed out for the first time in a while to give her a hose down.

Get my keys to a new unit shortly so hopefully have some regular updates after that.

 

Well todays a sad day as I put my Zed up for sale!!!

Decided to take the Z for a ferry ride today 😊 staying the night in Aurberge De La Foret hotel 

The hotel is a little dated but the food is supposed to be good 

The drive from Calais to Hazebrouck was 43 miles

Today we left Hazbrouck to Le Touquet  war graves 67 miles
 

Then back to Calais 44 miles so a nice ride on great French roads

We covered around 180 miles this weekend ! Loved it👍😀

180 miles covered, €400 in tolls 😂

Moved the two breakers into the new unit today, i don't have car lift but i do have plenty of room and a flat surface now to start breaking these zeds up.

Stay tuned for a list of parts.

 

Goodwood Festival of Speed for the next few days!

Completed a 287 mile trip over the weekend.

Went to Goodwood Festival of Speed on Wednesday and camped for a few nights, car got quite a bit of attention in the campsite!

Then drove from there to Rendcomb, Cotswolds on Friday night, lovely sunny drive, and spent the weekend with my family for my dad’s 70th before driving home to Tring.

Car didn’t miss a beat!

Over the weekend I took the front windscreen scuttle & wiper arms off.

washed, sanded, painted & replaced. With a new silicone tape strip under the scuttle 

 

Daily drove to work today. Let's play spot the zed...
