Do I or Don't I

Well thats the question as to wether I sell the zed. Getting fed up putting petrol in it, only to use it on some knob who wants a race! It must be something to do with the ironing board on the back. It's a very hard car to drive slowly so it looks like we may be going for something a little bit more practical. Oh that don't mean a Kia picanto either.

its probably worth more to you than in a trade in or selling. If you dont need to money thats in it i'd keep it as a toy, weekend use etc....

Easy I know but you need to learn to let it ride. As for putting fuel in, I chuck in over £80 a week and this either the zed (when its working) or the Landy on the weekly commute.

Getting a smaller car is not the answer as you'll only push it hard to get the level of performance you crave for. False economy. Stick to the zed, learn to drive it differently, economically and every now and then hit the loud pedal in the right places

You will soon change your mind when it comes to letting it go for 15 year old fiesta money.

Pears? That's an odd place to put them.

Keep it! I regretted selling our first ZS180, as I watch it's new owner driving off in it I knew I'd made a mistake and it's too late then
