Plans for 2017
 
So with christmas and new year being just around the corner, what are peoples plans for their Zeds or indeed any other cars they have? I'll be starting with the engine conversion on mine and respray and sorting out a few other jobs that need doing although it probably wont be done by next year, I have quite a long list to get through. Always nice to hear other peoples plans

My car is going off the road fro the rest of the winter next week and the plans at the moment are sort the diff bearings that have been driving me nuts all year and tidy up the underside of the car and rust proof apart from that not a lot.

Bit early for this, I normally work out the lists at Christmas, between mince pies and port.

I'd like to finish the mk1 mods next year. Keep the mk2 clean and tidy, perhaps get the rusty roof bits sorted.

Well mine not much different to this time last year...Keep the yellow beast and just loads of TLC.............plus lots of driving and shows.

Well I,m stuck been thinking about changing my zed the past year but just cant bring myself to do it . I love my zed it will be 10 years of ownership in feb next year and its been ultra reliable . I,m just thinking of downsizing . Still want something nippy like and fun to drive . So was thinking of maybe a Suzuki swift sport the new shape one like coz I think the first shape is bland inside . But it probably wont happen like I said I love my 180 I can see me keeping it till the day it dies lol .

Got the Astra Gte on sorn from 1st Nov. Got front bumper off to paint up the peeling black plastic inserts. Autoglym matt black rattle can is best for these.

Also got front lamps out to tidy up a little surface rust. Clean off and treat oil cooler pipes and other ancillaries.

Rad out air box out. Although she's only done a couple of thou on the cam belt it's 5yrs or so old. So new belt, fresh anti freeze and back together for spring.
