I think these are the first pics i've actually seen of your car.... :yikes:
Are the wheels white or is it just 'burnout' from being too bright? I like it... |
They are indeed, absolute ******* to clean white alrighty :laugh:
|
Looks great stamford
|
How would you rate the tyres?
|
The Hankook's have served me very well, on track they have performed better than expected. I'm not one for brands, I go for value for money and if they grip in both wet and dry and stay in one piece then good.
I've sampled various rubber over the years especially when I was racing so tend to stick to those I have had good service from. Some major brands I won't touch as they have failed badly, delaminated, melted or just no grip. |
I tend to go on peoples recommendation hence the reason i asked. :)
I've had Pirelli (not fussed), Falken (not fussed), Avon ZZ3 (quite pleased), Toyo (good but don't last that overly long) & of course the Continental Sport Contact (similar to the Avons). |

That looks stunning, firdt time I've seen any pics of it except for your avatar :D
|
looking great mate :D
love the white straights and number plate ;) |
Looking good mate. Me the same with tyres.
Take it you cleaned the Zed yourself...............:laugh: |
Hello Mike, yea I cleaned it! Won't trust my girls to do it, they can't keep their own stuff tidy let alone my car! Also did Kathy's for her, she can't reach the roof bless her ;)
|
looks totally awesome mick, i think yours and Craig's are by far my favourite mk1's on the site! the white wheels look great, can only imagine about the cleaning!
how long has it been back on the road for now? |
Where are those photo's taken? It looks very much like a carpark in Clanfield... ;)
|
looking good fella, good to see pics of it last:D:D

Stunning! The wheels are spot on! Im thinking of powder coating mine white. I have had a few hankook sport ventus and im now onto the k104s. Great price £58 and last well too. Nearly as good as the toyos Iv got on the front but last much better
|
White is a real biatch to keep clean, but when clean they set it off :D
|
That is one stunning looking mk1 ,those wheels are amazing looking
|
It's funny, you don't think of it that way, but it does look good in them pics :D
Well today hurts, I got my shed back from my daughter, so it was Xsara time today and no ZS :sad: as it was left on the drive. Still, saves money! |
Me too Mick. ZS parked up, using Laura's Polo 1.4 16v........selling VW as just got her Audi A4 Avant 1.9TDi...........very nice I have to say, tremendous strong engine :beer2:
|
Bet it hurts paying derv prices though!
|
Corrrrrrrrrr, Laura pays that!!!!!!!!!. Typical huge fuel tank. £50 1/2 fills it!!!, however full tank gives 850 miles according to trip computer.
Guess I wont be getting much for my birthday!!!! :wavecry: |
Quote:
I know i compared what it cost to run the ZS against a 2.0L TDCI Focus - ZS was twice what the Focus was to run per mile (fuel only). |
It does work out for her. But Laura gets a very generous 0.65p per mile from NHS for her visits & covering McMillan nurse duties, so not too bad.
Needs cambelt doing with all the bits (water pump etc), but that was reflected in the price. :yes: |

Looking good sir. loving the white wheels, a nice touch!!! I'm in ur gang when it comes to the Hankooks, on my 2nd set now & think that they r great value for the money.:cap:
|
Looks stunning mate, I followed a TB hatch home from work today and thought what a nice colour it is especially in the sun.
|
Makes the wifes TB ZR look dowdy. First time I have seen your motor mate. Absolutely love it.
|
Thanks for all the nice comments, makes me love it again :laugh: actually makes me love it some more ;)
Still forgot to take some pics of the shift light! |
Wow Attack of the sticker monster
Those wheels stand out like a sore thumb it also seems to bring the blueness of the car out too which is Good TB is a nice colour |
Very nice indeed:cool1: You can't beat a nice clean example.
