After selling my Zed about a month ago, I've been kicking myself everyday I have to drive to work in my gay little C2 vtr.

So have been looking for another Zed, and think I've found one! But its in Coventry.

Was hoping that there was someone who could possibly go and look at it for me to make sure its not swiss cheese.

Hi mate,

I live in the Coventry area and would be happy to take a look at it.

I am no expert, but I am familiar with the various rust issues amongst other things. (I have a UK 2+2)

Just got my Data Scan fully functional on my daughters laptop, so could have a look at how she is running.

Would like some info about the car before I went to see it if that's OK.

Also, it would be good if fellow members could point out all the various things I need to be looking for.

I will also take my digital camera, that way I can forward you some pictures.

Get them to bring it to the 25th anniversary meet and then half the club could have a look at it for you lol

Cheers redwine, that would be amazing if you could have a look!

I'd owe you big time mate.

The car is a n/a auto....

This is the eBay number... 321425035641

I did ask the seller about rust, especially the rear sills, arches and where the rear bumper attaches at the bottom of the arches.

Paint work isn't too important as I have specific plans for that :)

As long as it runs stops etc.

A gearbox diagnostic check would be good if you know how too :)

I work in coventry so if you need a backup, let me know.

Car is less than 15 miles from ZEDWORLD, can see of they would pop it over to us for a check over and let you know, they may or may not but if it makes a sale for them you never know, more than happy to do it for you free of charge of course.

This forum has got to be full of the best group of guys and girls this country has the privilege of calling residents!

I will ask them jeff, the worst they can say is no mate.

Great thread!

Great thread!

Because of of the great people willing to help?

Or because it highlights the fact that I'm a bell end for selling my Zed and that I couldn't last a month without a Zed in my life? :lol: :lol:

Nice one Jeff!

 

If it gets the thumbs up from you then we can't go wrong.

Both. And the fact that you're getting another one, so it's good news all round!

Spoke to the seller and he said he doesn't see any reason not to bring it over for you to have a look.

Its is just having/had an mot test today so hopefully all will be fine and over to see you asap.

Hope it is alright though as I can't stand driving my shitty little turd box anymore!

Cool, you have a contact name? or have you given them our contacts?

I don't actually have his name, but I have mentioned yours.

I heard from him again since my last post and he said he'll be in contact with me tomorrow, so I will have to keep you posted.

By the way, thanks asgasin for offering to have as look for me, that goes for everyone that offered! Great club spirit!

Update.

I have just had another message from the seller, and he has now said he doesn't have the time to drop it over to Zedworld.

So the original plea still stands, would anyone please go and have as look for me if possible?

I will happily reimburse you for your time and effort!

Looks like it's in the car garage by the Ford Dealer on London Road. Well, that's where the pictures are taken. It just so happens I pass there on my way home from work.

 

I'll pop in tomorrow very quickly on my way home but could spend more time on friday afternoon...

Mate any inspection would be great and much appreciated!!

I just need to know if it runs properly and not as complete rot box.

Mmm......

I have that feeling too.....

Maybe the mot showed up more than they had bargained for, that's why I need someone to have a sniff about it before I drive 3 hours across the country to have a look at a lemon.

Ask him can redwine300 take it too jeffs if he can't the 15mile be a nice test drive

That would be going above and beyond, but I'd feel too cheeky asking.

I feel bad enough asking for someone to look at it for me.

No worries mate! If you need me to drive it over to Jeff's then I would be happy too.

Early Saturday morning would be good for me.

Your a legend mate. I'll ask the seller if this would be OK and get back to you.

Hopefully Zed racer won't find anything too bad this evening.
