BedZee Man

Ha ha, yeah man, I be just cruising along in me estate, autoed up, but still smiling cos I'm driving a zed :-) with turbos whooshing, pipe in hand.

Now we are talking !!, this is exactly what I would love to do, I can see it now, a couple of zeds gently perambulating through the countryside......that is until I have flat stretch of road I can whack the kick down in !! Orf we jolly well go, eh what! Let me know what day your thinking of Mr Mogsy, see you then buddy!

http://www.greatestdrivingroads.com/great_roads.html Aside from the shows, meets, et al this year, I'm going to try and drive on as many of these roads as possible during 2016. This appeals to me more in some respects than the obvious group occasions on offer, althougth I am looking forward to these. It would be even better if some of the club members who could make it, would join me? I'm not putting any dates in the diary for this, just make my mind up which one I am going to tackle and when, as far in advance as possible, and put a post up as early as possible to see if anyone fancies joining me. Can a sticky or something be made up for all our members to list their favorite driving roads around the UK? I would like to recommend the B660 from Bedford to Kimbolton, cracking drive.

I like the idea of the Coventry meet, sounds ideal. As for the NEC, like so many of us, we just don't know if our cars are good enough. When I saw Dan's motor, (Gibster-TT) I realised just how much effort goes into the Zeds, mines come straight off the boat, serviced, driven and parked on my drive. It's bog standard apart from the previous owners mods, but in Great condition. I'm a maybe if the club wants a stock purple on show :-)

Steady :-) would love to be on the stand mate but it would be a daft o`clock start for me, will certainly aim to be there at some point though. You, me, Dan, it would be like old times :-):thumbup1:

Nice one Chris, I will try and come down, sounds great :-)

Nice one :-)

Nice One Coopd, cannae make the dates this time round mate, hopefully later in the year ;-)

I was the nutter in the Silver Land Rover blapping my horn and grinning inanely........ :-)

Nice One mate, this is exactly the type of post I like to see. I am in Sandy, Beds/Cambs border on the A1. Preston's a hike, BUT I now know that this meet is a regular event and at some point, likely in the summer, I will go there. Thanks Man, I hope others in the locale read your post, pick up the baton, and pop over to the meet, now they know at least one zed club member is going! Cheers!

Well said, I'm a 3 month newbie and I totally agree with the above comments. I will go out of my way to attend a meet......as and when I can..... However, there does not seem to be much in meets to-date, I have signed up for Jap Fest at Silverstone and I drove for an hour or two to meet a couple of Z32 club owners last weekend. It was great fun, a Z club meet..... with one 240, one 280zx and 4 300ZX motors, I had to laugh. I had a chat with the lads, made a couple of friends and enjoyed myself. What's to stop members simply posting on a thread that they themselves are driving to a location this Sunday, anyone fancy meeting there. If others do go, great, if not, nothing lost. I often just get in my motor on a weekend and drive to a local place of beauty or better still a country pub, just to get out and drive my Zed , where I go is not really that important, its having fun getting there. I guess its who will take the time to meet up and a will to get out that needs to be promoted within the current membership, how is another question. I am actively looking at websites and forums for other car meets, be they classic, Jap, German, old, new, whatever, just so I have somewhere to aim for on a weekend. Boxing day I turned up at a right posh car meet with loads of really classic cars and guess what, within 10 minutes I met a chap, who by luck was a club member with a Zed 32, we had a great laugh as his car rumbled onto the car park..... I would love to be able to come on to our forum and see what's around for the weekend, not just the mainstream shows and events but the fact that Tom and Dick are going to the Wagon & Horses in Yorkshire that weekend or Harry is going to Stonehenge for a spin out on Saturday. If we all just stick a post on whatever we are doing that weekend, maybe others will have an opportunity to join you/them? Anyway, that's my thoughts, if anyone's interested, I will be going to Lee Dents, LA Autos on the 30th for some light work on Purple Haze and an afternoon of Zed related chit chat and tea, lots of tea....

TGIF ! We got through the week! Its FRIDAY.... and how better to Celebrate than with An Emotional Fish........ ;-) :rockon:

I worked on the sound and vision tour 1990. David was an incredible Artist, much more than a songsmith, his influence on my youth cannot be stressed enough. RIP Mr Jones, thanks for the memories :-)

Great to meet a few 300ZX owners today, cheers ! See you next time chaps :-)

Shame mate, next time buddy, just had a great drive down here:-)

And a Purple one :-) see you there !

Cool :-)

It's an hours drive round the M25 for me, but if a couple of you at least will be there, I might go for it later on. Chris, Gibster are you going anyway? It would be great to meet a couple of lads from the club, let me know :-)

Footman James are good

Nice one, I must get mine booked in, could do with a cuppa Lee's brew:-)

Wish I had his motors Lee :-) Cheers!

Just dropped from 35 all round to 32, felt better, not so rigid but still gripping well :-)

Got my Chrimbo pressie from the missus, it delivered yesterday! Love it :-)
