Car Alarm Recomendations
I've had a Clifford G5 with remote engine start, microwave sensors, total closure etc. on my MR2 for just about a year now, and not had a single problem with it. Hasn't malfunctioned, isn't too complicated. It's all down to the individual at the end of the day though.

Best way to clean up the engine bay?
I'm lucky I hadn't moved my mug too far, else I'd be needing your Bling Elves to get the coffee out of my keyboard and monitor from laughing at that one :rofl:

hello everyone
Welcome to the club, and stop bending Zeds, it's hard enough trying to find my first :P

Better late than never
Cheers for the welcomes :) @Murt: I never said I was ditching the '2, I want both! Besides, there are plans in store for it later down the line.

Better late than never
Bit of a late hello for me here, been registered here since 2005, when I was originally looking at the FAQ's et cetera when looking to get a Zed back then, which I didn't in the end. Been driving a Mk2 MR2 (don't hurt me :P ) around since then, which despite its' apparent "hairdresser" label, and lack of turbo, is a fantastically fun car. But I want more! XD So now the time has come, and I'm seriously looking around for my first Zed, wanted one of these for years and it's only now that I feel I can afford one, and that my driving skills have improved enough to attempt to tame one without it killing me too often :P Thanks already to those of you who've answered some of the questions I've asked so far, and I look forwards to meeting some of you eventually at a meet somewhere once I've finally gotten my mitts on my very own Z :) (need to find one by August at the latest, I'm driving to Germany, and happen to be coming home via the worlds most interesting "Toll Road" ;) )

Crest Cars - Anyone know the Z's?
Thanks bob, but I'm in the looking for a manual. I can appreciate that an auto is just as much fun to drive, but I prefer that little bit more control over the gears and when they change - 3 years of MR2 ownership have seen to that one, I wouldn't still be around if I'd had an auto methinks. As for the cars at the Wycombe dealers, thanks to all for your advice. I saw them yesterday with a mate, and we walked away without even bothering with a test drive. Wasn't impressed with the condition, the "last owner for 12 years" story was still being told, despite knowing John-Boy's story of ownership, and he still had the gall to say "Oh yes, full service history"....and then show me a logbook that stopped at 2004. Upon asking for receipts of servicing since, I was told "It's got every MOT certificate". Not quite what I asked for ¬.¬ Also took a look at a manual n/a being advertised at a Showroom in Newbury, advertised as non-abused. Sure. I think the previous owner must have washed it with a brillo pad given the paintworks condition >. So, no luck so far, I am still Zed-less for now :( The search continues.....

Sorry to bump the thread just for a reply to Richard, but I can't seem to send PM's ^.^; With regards to this weekend, no can do as I've had some family stuff come up that's just tied my weekend up, then I'm working for the following two. Thanks for the offer of assistance, if it's still okay with you I'll get in touch when I've got a weekend free to look at Zeds, but will probably be mid-march by then.

Are there going to be any zeds left in this club soon?
Mine will be here.....when I get around to getting it, that is ^.^; (should only be a coupla months now... :-D )

Cheers for all the feedback, I'm glad I asked here first. Not sure if I'm going to look at these now, I'm certainly going to be taking a mechanically-minded mate along for backup if I do.

z less :(
You won't be unimpressed with the '2 through the twisties, my friends beemer 540i can't keep up with me on corners (I have a '91 n/a import), and t'other half (who has a 350Z) still grabs for handles in corners that the Z wouldn't take as fast. Mind you, despite the '2 agility, I still want a ZX :P

Cheers Yassa, wasn't too keen on the black one to begin with purely from the photos. Did you actually get chance to drive the car yourself, or did the seller do all the driving?

Ta for the heads-up on that one JB, as it's probably the second choice one I'd go for after the white one - all depends on their current condition of course.

Hi all, apologies first if this is in the wrong section. Looking finally towards buying a Zed (something I've been putting off for a couple of years due to finances) and I've spotted what look like some good ones at a dealers in High Wycombe on Autotrader. There's a white TT LWB which looks like it's got a club sticker in the drivers side rear quarter window. http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/cars_popup.jsp?did=28997&pageid=3&originalid=&gid=nogroup&tid=46&start=5&distance=0&adcategory=cars&channel=DEALERPAGE&id=200905328084227 is the one in question. Anyone know any of this cars history, or the other 2 TT's for sale by the trader? I'm planning on seeing them when I get some time off work, but thought that any info anyone else had on them would help. Thanks in advance. Stu
