Who can beat this then??- 26 cars in 16 years = 1 car for every 7 months since I been driving!! I am sure now I have the Zed, this will stop!

 

Crappyest car me owned= Morris Ital (bought it in the dark- the smartass had painted it with matt emulsion so first spot of rain, had white puddles round it! :rofl: )

 

Nicest car (apart from zed) = Jag XJ6 4.0- very smooth- still a bird puller, but a bit arfur daley!

 

Fastest car (apart from zed) = Cav SRI 2.0- t'was a beastie

 

So come on, let the skeletons out of the closet for your pre-zed years :)

Hi Zevens

 

I thought you were going for 26 300ZX's in a single Year :slap:

Who's sorting your Z? I was in Warrington today and dropped some bits of RX7 engine in to the guys at Crossmead (I think thats where they are) they had some nice motors there though.

 

So you going to betray the brotherhood of suffering Z heads and become a ****ler. :rofl: :rofl: Rotary engine of course :D .

 

Fair play they are a sexy bit of kit and just as much tailend excitment. You'll have to let us get a butchers of it when you become a Whankler. If its shinyer than mine though I'll be upset.

 

What upset me more though is this fooking swear sensor deleats all the best word play Whankle.

 

has it kept those spellings

Hi Zevens

LOL

 

C&S Woods are performing the transplant!

It won't be shinier - the yellow isn't metallic. It's just :dance: YELLOW :dance: But no betrayal (yet) - I'm betraying the brotherhood of underrated Spanish torquebeasts instead and getting rid of the Leon.

 

What I can see happening is a realisation that you never get a chance to use the slight performance advantage the Z has on our roads, and looking for more of a sprinter next year... (Evo 6 RS mmmmm) or even go the other direction and swap for an NA plus cash, just because it's a hell of a lot easier to look after.

 

Really, the only reason I have to keep the Z is the GT nature of it and the targas - hence I wouldn't mind an NA at all. But then I could just get a Brabus Smart coupe... :rofl:

 

I hope the RX8 will be OK for long drives - since I'm driving round Europe in it for me jollies.

 

I think I prefer your spelling of Whankel anyway. :)

 

How's that for a thread hijack?

 

O yes, and I'll bring it to a meet, no question... but not Billing, because the chuffer won't have arrived. :(

Blimey you lot keep scrap yards in business :rofl:
