What did you do to your zed today?
MOT preparation for me, had to replace front ball joints, split gaiter and a couple of split drop link bushes that were picked up in the first test. Retest on Thursday!

Yeah, the bodywork pretty rough and thankfully being a classic Ford guy I've got both a dustpan & brush and a welder so I'll get stuck in when the time comes. Noticed some rust on the strut tower just behind the HICAS valve but apart from that it didn't look too bad under there. Thanks for that, I'll chuck him a message and hope he's got something on record still.

Here's a few more. Not quite sure where to start with it yet, looked underneath and it seems to have 2.5" stainless system, ECU has had some work from the looks of it and engine idles nicely. Needs the passenger inner cill looking at, rear passenger arch and a couple of other places need attention too. Got the seal of approval from a couple of guys on the boat back over though. Would love to know who the previous owner was though so I can find out what's been done to it.

Thanks Gaz, I'll fire the details over shortly. It's a 2+2 TT manual that I brought back from the UK on Friday. I had it delivered to me at the ferry in Liverpool, so bought unseen pretty much, and came from around the Rugeley area.

Hi guys, bought myself a Z32 not really knowing much about them. I remember being taken for a spin in a TT Auto back in '96 which left an impression, so when I was given the opportunity to buy one I obviously ignored all doubts running through my head and bought it. Anyway, this one has a club sticker in the window so I'm wondering if anyone has any info on it's past history or even if there's an owners thread on here? I've got a fair bit of bodywork to look at, currently it's about fifty shades of red. Has a vibration in the drive train, noisy valve of some sort from the back of the engine bay, pretty tired interior and several switches dotted around that I've not idea what they do..... Excuse the state of my garage ?
