Finally, back in the fold...
Hi guys, well i finally sold my gearbox damaged germanic pile of crap called a BMW to 2 latvian guys from sheffield. So with the sale done we started searching the auto websites for a decent Zed, Easier said than done, good ones to expensive, bad ones to cheap. Then on some obscure auto sale site was an advert, no picture, but an interesting description and best of all, just up the road in wisbech. Finally, a Zed for sale that wasn't in Scotland or the West Country. Next day, pictures supplied, post code in hand, off i go. As soon as i saw it i knew i would buy it, but i played my poker face, prodding, scratching, smelling, feeling.. and that was just on me. As soon as i heard those magic words "i'll knock off......" the deal was done. Deposit given, went home. Next day he drives it down for me and its mine. A Zed owner again :hyper: Pictures of my baby...

MOT requirement
Cheers, was there a way that included the fog lights part of the main light cluster, ie not the reversing lamps.. Cheers rich

MOT requirement
Ok thx Jeff, another one, another zed has a solution that uses the existing light cluster, so no silly add on light. Can that solution be easily transplanted to one without. Cheers Rich Sent from my Lumia 900 using Tapatalk

Zed Needed
Well unfortunately I had to do a deal with the bm, ended up with a Mazda 3, 2.0 sport plus some cash. So is this the end of an era.. I have to decide what to do with the zed in the garden, I was almost there , if only the auto box I bought worked, don't know if I can go through it again, what with my health getting worse, when we had that pollution come over, i had 2 angina attacks, not funny.

Baz, which shade of red is that...

Zed Needed
Maybe "sky high" was going a bit far, but a few years ago i'm sure there were more in the mid range 2K - 3K than in the high range, and those 2K ones were decent looking cars.

Zed Needed
Graham, good spot, its a starting bid though, could go anywhere, and i have to say, is it me or have zed prices gone sky high over the last few years, when i looked on Piston heads years ago, 20 - 30 zeds came up, with the majority reasonably priced, now there's 6, and not one in my price range. My 380 bhp TT i got a few years ago was a monster, great car, only £1400 bargain. i'll put a bid in, see how it goes. Cheers Graham Rich

FAO website guys
Hi, been using the new method of adding parts for sale, and noticed a quirk, when you add an attachment, or get an error in posting, when you go back to your post, some of the selection you have made (delivery, listing length..) have reset. Most annoying. is this known? if not add this to your bug list. Regards rich

I'm Confused.. (not difficult) Classified Sections
Okay, i know you're all expecting a garage load of spares from me for sale, but i'm going to have to knock that one on the head straight away, sorry. i only have a few items but quality makes up for quantity.. I'm still grateful for the chance to sell them, sorry its been a few days but things are... up and down at the moment. Before i do actually put something up for sale i need to know a couple of things. 1, How do you.... understand that the old sale/wanted/cars for sale are locked, but i cant see how to start a new thread in that classified section. 2, is there any way to differentiate whether a post is a parts for sale, car for sale or parts wanted at the top level, it would be nice. Apart from that, once i find out how to post one, i'll put a few bits up. Rich

Question on selling on Ebay
I Think you are right ted, and in all honesty its the right stance to take, and for all those members who say "its only ten quid.." try sitting in my shoes (whoops, mixing metaphors) its so frustrating and difficult, especially since the "bedroom tax" came along, However i now find out some mystery member has paid my subscription for me. So to whomever it was , i thank you, truly, its a very generous action, normally not seen in todays society, So lets draw a line here and get on with other , more pressing things Thanks once again to .. Regards

Question on selling on Ebay
Well , not that my finances is anybodies business, but making the adjustment from a £70K/year job as Strategic IT manager to living on Benefits is not easy, I never thought i'd be in a position where £10 would be so important to me. Now, selling on Ebay is easier as they don't require any money upfront, so once a sale is made i can pay the fee, not quite the same here where money is required upfront. So Gary, as membership sec. if you could temporarily "renew" my account to allow selling only, when i make a sale i would target the first ten pounds for my renewal. I've been a member on and off, paid and unpaid for over 10 years, I'm not going to do a runner, i couldn't anyway, not with my problems...so i think i'm good for it. Rich
