  1. Well. This one didn't last long. Unfortunately the zed I recently purchased has to go. Genuine reason for the sale and very very reluctant. Body work isn't terrible but being red it has faded etc but it is very solid. Engine pulls well. Little but of smoke which I'm told is residual oil from a recent turbo replacement. Speedo doesn't work and it's on 155k mix of miles and km. I intended to fix the speedo and put some new plasma dials in so they can come with the car along with and box of old bits and bobs. Japspeed exhaust system. She's and bit rough around the edges but drives well and isn't rotten so it's the Base of a great car should you want to bring the bodywork back to life. 4 brand new tyres too. Not my best for sale advert mainly because it's 330 am and I'm still gutted it's got to go. It'll be back on evilbay later this morning Any questions just ask. Photos to follow...
  2. My thoughts too. Will have a play around tomorrow.
  3. Well after being laid up for a few days with some kind of super man flu :lol: I've just taken the zed out for a few miles to see what was what. Drove lovely, seems quite lumpy and hesitant for a couple of minutes and then all is well. One thing which did concern me slightly was the temp gauge slowly rising and it did go all the way up. I turned the hot air on and it only blew cold for a couple of minutes, then it got hot and the temp gauge dropped back to normal and remained normal after I turned the blowers off. Almost as if there was a blockage in the cooling system perhaps? Speedo doesn't work. And then there's the advisory notices from the mot Nearside Front Tie bar/rod rubber bush deteriorated but not resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2) Offside Front Tie bar/rod rubber bush deteriorated but not resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2) Nearside Front Suspension component mounting prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive tie bar front cross member (2.4.A.3) Offside Front Suspension component mounting prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive tie bar front cross member (2.4.A.3) Play in steering rack inner joint(s) rear steering rack () Nearside Rear Track rod end ball joint dust cover deteriorated, but preventing the ingress of dirt rear steering rack (2.2.C.1c) Offside Rear Track rod end ball joint dust cover deteriorated, but preventing the ingress of dirt rear steering rack (2.2.C.1c) Nothing too serious as it stands. The rear pads are low too and I'm suprised they weren't on the advisory notice. Anyone have a clue about the temp gauge issue?
  4. Alarm stopped. Battery must be completely dead. Got a mate coming over with jump leads. Will leave the battery hooked up with the jump car running for 5 mins as Jeff said and then take it for a drive
  5. The alarm is currently going off. Not overly loud but the neighburs are out. All tools at work. Trying to source some jump leads... Awsome night so far
  6. Had the zed 2 days and left the lights on 3 hours ago. I go to unlock the car using the hornet alarm fob and nothing.... no bleep. Now i haven't attempted to open the door because it's quite late and I'm worried the alarm will go off all night because the battery is dead. Any ADVICE? Shall I just try and open the door and start the car?
  7. So they are. He's putting 4 tyres on it before collection so let's see if they go back on the right way :lol:
  8. Cheers Jeff. Ive got this vehicle smart app and I did check that. But it's much appreciated and it seems like the whole front suspension could do with a good going over during the winter months. Nothing too serious by the looks of the advisory lists.
  9. Any idea if a member owned it prior to him?
  10. That's him Dan. Really nice lad. Zed pulled really well. Looking forward to it. Was only a couple months ago you were telling me to buy one and I was saying no :lol:
  11. Cheers bud. No problem I've sent payment via PayPal. I see it can take a few days so no rush. Whilst having a quick scan I see I'm down as working at utility warehouse. In member services I think. You can remove that now as I'm no longer doing that and I can be of no help to any member. Also does anyone have any history on my new zed? Reg is j924hmy
  12. Thanks Gaz. It was recently on ebay and didn't sell at £2600. I had made contact with the owner a few hours before it was due to end and asked him to give me a call if it didn't reach its reserve. Lucky for me it didn't and we agreed a price after I viewed. Deposit left and I'm collecting Sunday. Happy days. Adam
