Well, the ZS is finally back to it's former glory. I drove the car back to Ireland and dropped it into a local mechanic. 7 days (and many many pints of guinness) later and he was done. A dealer in France wanted 6 months, waiting for parts. New bumper, bonnet, wing and I got the rear bumper re-done too. The frame needed a little realignment on a jig which raised the cost a little. All in 2500? and he did a really fantastic job. I know some of you guys will think that's nuts paying out the value of the car in repairs, but hey, with the head-gasket done now too it's running like new. There's a lot more life left in this boy's ZS.
