Z diagnosis...............
Today I actually got round to checking the purchase over,After running her up for around 20 mins and not seeing anything untoward, Me and Al went for a little drive. Needle on Temp gauge halfway,heater nice and hot.gave it a bit of welly (Iv'e missed that!) no vapour/smoke, needle still halfway........... Got her back in the Garage and felt around the pipes etc and could actually touch them and the radiator!-couldn't do this on the last Z without Hospital treatment after lol! So initial findings are.........well nothing! This is looking to be a Genuine 30,000 mile car with the sweetest sounding engine I have had in a Z, will do a pressure check tomorrow as a matter of course but can't see a problem TBH. So first job, fit bonnet strut-Done. second job.........you'll have to wait and see!:ninja:

The 'Z' arrived Today!
The delivery guys came at 9 this morning so stuffed it in the garage and went to work................ Boldy came round after for the first look-over and up to now it's pretty much as described. Not looked into the cooling issue yet but there certainly has been some money thrown at it! We both couldn't get over the condition of the rear arches/sills-like brand new! really!-even feeling up into the arch there isn't a bubble,scab or anything bad! Usual sill flanges bent thanks to incorrect jacking, couple of scabs on the T/gate etc, so at least the shell is good!-Engine condition will decide which way I'll take the car..................... ODO is showing 50k Kilometers,if this is genuine it would explain the great bodywork.:w00t:
