gonna stop moaning
will check the noise out first and go from there dont think i will bother trying to sell on here, there are too many people ready to put my car down, and also im honest and there are many threads where ive hated my zed and many help me threads so looks bad, but IMHO i would rather buy a zed with all the probs fixed rather than pay a lot of money for a zed and have nowt but bother with it to be honest i would like to speak to the people who say my car is nowt but problems, only one person from this forum has looked at my car and he just sprayed some carb cleaner in the bay and charged me £40 for it, so im not sure how they could make a diagnosis without really knowing fook all about my car

gonna stop moaning
and get my car repaired, i moan and groan about everything i do on my car, but im gonna bite the bullet and strip it (starting this weekend), im not letting it go for buttons, ive put too much work into it to let it go for less than 3k (was willing to take £2500 for it), but *****cks im gonna repair, would prefer to crush it rather than let someone take it for buttons as for so called members talking behind the scenes about my car, it has been very faithfull and has only really let me down on the underside of the body and some wear and tear, it has all been fully sorted, the running prob ive had for so long has been the lack of opening it up on the open road and the pcv valves choked up, in the 5 years ive had it-its only been off the road a few times whilst waiting for parts, seems to be just put down tactics to get the price knocked down i know the milaege lets it down and the fact its catc recorded, but its worth more than £2500, the only way it will go for that price is if the crank has to come out and be ground, i havent really got the funds to repair anymore than just the shells, but we shall see, ive been offered a place to store it for a month or so if i need time to save cash up even been thinking about a bank loan and send it to jefftt for an engine transplant, but im not too sure ATM just thought i would post this up hoping i get some words of encouregment lol
