It's not my fault - I have been a Ford Capri person for 20 years. Never a Jap car - then this mate of mine went and sold his Capri 280 and got a Zed.
Huh! I said. He'll be back for another 280. Then I saw his Zed and the doubts started coming thick and fast. No problem says I - this is something I can handle. Won't get to me I thought.
So I find myself Googling 300zx instead of Capri - and all these visions appeared and forums and it all got too much.
I even joined this forum, just browsing you understand. I mean who wants to be a member of the Worlds Biggest Youth Club I told myself. It's not decent, it's not right. Is it?
So there it was - a 1994, 55k miler - silver - with 19's on - tinted glass and black leather - nothing wrong with 'loooking' is there?
Well, a spin in it won't hurt anyone either?
Hmm, no bad points - very driveable, very reflective in the windows in town - maybe it's worth it. Afterall it is a £35,000 car at some point in the distant past. A lot of bang for little buck. No grief from the wife. It's a sign, it's a sign says I.
Bottom line - collecting it in a week or so and looking foward to the drive back down the M6 (well not really but there's no other option than the M6).
