Such a pity it cant be saved.

I agree Gary...

 

…..But selfishly I have taken advantage; and ordered the driver's side door glass. The window looks in much better shape than mine - and the blue UK spec glass is getting harder to come by :wink:

 

Thanks for the link Andrew :thumbup:

What is it about the drivers side window getting so scratched mine is the same. :(

I've been to see it and it's definitely past it.

Probably because it gets used more than the passenger side - and previous owners were not as diligent as us, when cleaning the car. I periodically give the inner edge of the window rubbers a wipe over with silicone, if only to keep them from getting mossy and ensure they remain supple.

I need a good scratch remover to see if it would work on mine.

I have been meaning to try that too - and I seem to remember Andy (Phutumsch) recommending a compound some time ago.... But seeing this white Zed being broken, I thought it prudent to buy the window anyway - as UK spec glass doesn't come up for sale that often!

Yes good call mate and keep your original glass and try to clean up them scratches.

Exactly...:cool:

 

I'm taking my Zed down to Jimmer's in two weeks time, so may ask him to fit the new window for me whilst it's there. If he has the time, that is...

 

….On top of the cambelt, service, ABS sensor, AC regas….:wink:

How many cam belts have you done now Richard?

I think this will be the third, on my blue Zed. JeffTT did it just after I bought the car - and then did another 6 years ago, when the water-pump failed.

I'm on my second. Jeff did the first then Neil a mechnic over here did the second.

Just checked my history....

7 years and 30k miles on, I think it's definitely due that trip to Jimmer:wink:

Where do the years go.
