Sold mine...

Yup, I've flip-flopped on my ZS again and sold it. It's being collected on the 23rd and going to a new home. You'll think I'm stupid, but the reason I've sold it? The colour. I just couldn't get on with a silver car! As a project I don't want to put anymore into if I'm not 100% set on it.

So, I've decided that I'm going to hold on to my wheels and my mkII bits and wait for the right car to come along. I want a red or green I think. And maybe even a V6.

I'll still me hanging round here though - you can't get rid of me that easily...

Wise decision, sometimes you get a car you can't bond with and a V6 is the way forward

It's a good car and a solid base to get nicely sorted, I've done all the leg work! I just never really fell for it!

I know what you mean, I'm the opposite with my ZS, I plan to replace her and then I drive.........soon change my mind.

can't beat a nice grey one - they come up all shiney

i keep thinking of selling it recently - with the leak and the frustration with the clutch going and still not able to use the full potential of the car i am just not feeling the love currently.... but then i give myself a slap and see her sitting on the drive looking pretty

tho have to admit, a Jag XF diesel is quite appealing....though i will loose the use of my left foot if i got one...

Yours looks great Pete! The 180 looks lovely, way too far away from me, though!
