Looks like I'm not even close to getting my Zed back for the Pod this weekend, so having to be driven down by a mate :(

 

Then to add to it, my mate with his supposed 380bhp Saphire Cosworth has talked himself into a Fast Ford feature. He's being interviewed tonight and to wind me up has threatened to mention me & how I might be trading in the 300 after going is his car as it's so much better, faster etc etc.

This is absloute shite obviously but if it does turn up in the mag I will not be happy as I cannot bear people even talking about the two cars in the same sentance let alone something going into print:mad: :xxx:

 

To top it off, I have had to buy a runabout and I am driving what must be the crappest car / engine combo ever - a Cavalier 1.4L. The steering on this pile of poo beggars belief, it takes about 1/2 a turn of lock to take moderate bends, and great armfuls to negotiate roundabouts. Not much choice in the £300 used car market unfortunately.

 

Waiting for the Zed to return is horrible, especially on nice days & evenings like today. Just hope it's worth it.

Take the Cav to Pod, its still great fun and will give you a taste for when the zed makes it :cool:

I feel for you. I have been driving a 1.2 Corsa with no power at all.

I did think about it, but I took it on the motorway for the first time tonight and when it eventually got past 70, there is a load groan from the wheel bearings and LOADS of vibration through the wheel, maybe balance but feels worse and is intermitant! Plus it also weaves around a bit, so whilst it may take a Pod run or two, the drive down there isn't worth it.

 

Just seen James 300's Greddy Profec install idea though which has cheered me up - was wondering where to put mine when I come to install it.

you want to try driving a mini city automattic

some Tw*t dropped a skip outside my garage at the weekend so i can't get the zed out! so i have to use the wifes car

petrol lasts for ever tho.

I'd be having them for that mate, you can call plod and have it removed if it is blocking your legal use of your vehicle

I've got a heavy duty angle grinder you can borrow!

 

Hi Jock - eventually got home at 1 am!!!!

Yeah, I think this is a good idea.

Maybe sort out a daily drive shoot out :D

 

Sorry to hear your woes with your Z bud. :(
