off on a bit of a trip this weekend. Whitley Bay to London today then off to Wiltshire on Saturday then back up North on Monday.

 

Every bit of common sense says take the reliable, economical daily driver especially as the weather forecast isn't so great. but on the other hand, the zeds just been serviced, running really well (I just know I'm going to regret saying that!), got new tyres, got working air-con, just been washed...

 

I cant decide, need a second (and obviously unbiased) opinion. What do you guys think?

Fook it, go for it, you know you want too :D :dance:

 

Wrong place for an unbiased opnion I think.

Ain't no point in having it if you're just gonna keep it locked up in the garage. Go on, take it out for a run! Have fun! :)

Yup, your right. Loading up the multichanger now :D

Jesu man if you think its that unreliable get rid. I alway used mine to go anywhere. When it comes back from its latest incarnation I'm thinking of driving it down to Garda in Italy and I expect to get there and have fun on the Autobarns and Autostradi.

mate mine IS my daily driver, just can bring myself to own a zed and drive sumting else y'know?? so I say damn the cost man - just do it you know you will enjoy it sooooo much more.

 

unbiased enuff for ya?

...and if the sun does come out there nothing worse than being trapped under a roof!

 

To be fair to my zed, its never left me stranded anywhere. Just the thought of sitting in all that bank holiday traffic making me nervous!

 

Anyway, decision made. The zeds getting its first decent road trip. I'll keep an eye out for all you southern zeddders down there.

;) you know it makes sense, have a good weekend :)

Well, it didn't let me down at all! 850 blissfull miles. Only niggle was a slipping aircon belt.

 

The only other zed I saw on my whole trip was another black (or maybe grey) one bonnet up at the side of the M1 just north of Newport Pagnel(?) services on Friday afternoon :( Anyone here? If it was, hope you got it sorted!

oh yes, and while I was in a garage outside Bristol I spotted a magazine called Practical Performance Car with an article about buying a 300zx. The club gets a name check and it features a club members car. Have I missed the discussion on this?

 

Didn't learn too much about zeds I didn't know from bitter experience or this site but the article on turbos was very good - accademic for me with my NA but good non the less!!
