Today, got Danny's sunspot car, a perfect day

would like to share with members here :smart:

3 hours journey from Newcastle to Danny's place, already checked his car two weeks ago (just went to there 2 weeks ago on a rainy day,met Danny and a quick check of his car, then deposit paid), then waiting 2 weeks for transferring plate .

Today, got all paper documents, and other electric documents will be emailed to me.

engine bay looks neat, oil catch tank, new vis-motor etc are fitted, lots of suggestion about car maintenance from Danny.

bodywork and paint looks awesome especially with tinted windows and rear lights and must be looked after well by Danny, few stone chips under the rear arc, difficult to be noticed, he also gave me lots of car cleaning and respray stuff for free


4 yokohama tyre are absolute like new

shinny discs and pads no rust at all, in great condition, caliper painted in sunspot 2, may be because those rusty stuff on my 120+, anyway I'm impressed

could say 99% of the interior is like 99% new!!!!!!!!!!!

all half leather black seats in mint condition without any rips and cracks

full black leather steering wheel fitted

momo pedal fitted

quite like the material of the Centre Console

great looking and functional Sony Digital Media Player, usb,aux,compatiable with ipod and iphone.

air con works efficiently and quietly, would be better if it has zone control.

the extent of noise inside the car (which I care a lot) when it is on the motorway is as good as my mate's audi a4 cabriolet.

Finally, Paid the balance and got the receipt, Danny seems kinda of regret when I start the engine, said bye bye then I swiftly put down the foot without looking back. That's my precious.

Big thank to people here who were helping me to find a MK2
and a special thank to 4D----

Dan1987(introduced Danny's car to me, gave me lots knowledge about ZS, other members also helped me a lot ),

Dannny(TOP guy, mature and genuine gentlemen lol ),

my girlfriend DanDan(she is with me all the time whereever I go, encourage me to do what I dreams of and kept me awaking and full of energy when I was on the motorway),

my mate Dan (drove me to Danny's place and lead my way to home, as I forgot to bring the GPS with me, though he tried several times to throw off me in order to show his audi is better than mine. it finally turns out the MK2 180 is much quicker, as I throwed off him and found I lost on the motorway...)

SOME PICS of my MK2 ZS180 and my mate's audi which I'd like to share with

My mate's car was like this two weeks ago but with twin tailpipe duplex cat-back powerflow exhaust system, just an idea..

http://i1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb329/Kai_Chen/untitled.jpg

then he left for Chine for one month,
I got it resprayed in white in a garage,
also bought a bodykit from JDL for him as his Chinese new year gift,
happy to see a big smile on his face :smart:

Forget to mention ,as for me,
the BLUEFLAME duplex ss catback exhaust system is sweet,
sounds better than my mate's powerflow one.

This is what I saw on the motorway, makes me a bit of fancy a truck, then I would never sucks in terms of talking about cars http://i1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb329/Kai_Chen/IMG_0495.jpg

thanks Ross, shame that I've missed ur old BLUE zs ON GUMTREE..

Anyway, I'm quite happy with Danny's one

[Maxxed_Ross]

nah mine was over priced and not nearly as nice looking as that

[Craig]

Looking good Kai! I have to say I think your mate cab looked better before the re-spray! Really needs bigger wheels to pull off the body kit

[big_wasa]

I would have the zed over the audi any day :)

[mattie007]

Great looking car. Take care if it!
Everyone you know seems to be called Dan!

Even His Girlfriend???

Kai... are you really selling the car again in 6 months when you go back to china??

[peterzs]

Great looking car, enjoy.

:):):):)

[wackyschild]

Thats a very good looking car you've got there. I'd be tempted not to mod it any more and just leave it as is. I honestly don't think you can make it look much better.

I like the white Audi, agree that it needs bigger wheels but I seem to have a thing about white cars at the moment :weirdo:

[andys1981]

very nice mate,iam sure you will look after it,audis quite nice aswell

[lawrence-zs180]

As for audi,, it deff needs some big old alloys on there

[petet16]

I hadn't bothered looking at the Audi till you mentioned it, but yeah that bodykit is horrible.

Lovely Zed though:)

[ZS]

yeah, I will graduate the end of this year, then leave for China January next year, May consider selling it before that time.

If the car isn't too heavily modified and a reasonable price in December I think a few people may be interested! me included ;)

[Squeaks]

Stunning car.

Keep it nice and fairly standard and come December I may buy it off you.

[kkman]

If the car isn't too heavily modified and a reasonable price in December I think a few people may be interested! me included ;)

[Bobdope2002]

[Dave ZS-X]

beautifull zs.

[big_wasa]

Hmm I may be up for it when it comes up for sale aswell. Will keep an eye out.

[Gachet180]

That ZS looks fantastic, I've only ever seen a MK 2 in trophy yellow before that is definately nicer. The Audi is total shed, I think that's the worst looking A4 I've ever seen. It would have looked much nicer if it have been left standard apart from some 18" or 19" BBS wheels and maybe some s-line skirts and front splitter.

don;t say so...my mate will kill me if he saw this comment.....plz...

[daytona365]

Nice looking car, nice colour

[Danny Coleman]

Yes it is a nice car, I spent a fortune on it and reading the comments I THINK i'M GUTTED IT'S GONE! Spent Friday morning give it a final clean and a bit of a polish, then hoped it would rain so I couls watch the water roll off it. Now stuck with the task of choosing the company car, and whats on the list, bog standard, ugly rubbish. oh but they said I could have Nissan Leaf, yes a bloody electric car. no chance. told them ill drive one when the MD does.

[stamford]

You got yourself a really nice ZS there, treat it well! Danny......you have sold your soul! :laugh:
