Wifey's ZR has to go.... Damned shame

Very nice ZR 160

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Take a look at my Wifes motor.

It's lovely, but alas she hasn't got the balls to drive it she tells me after owning it for 10 weeks, It scares the living daylights out of her, so despite spending a mint on it, it has to go. Time to drown my sorrows, I love driving it, picks up quicker than my beast to 50mph.

Have a look: Do a cut and paste into your web browser.

Not working fella.

Bad news, but at least she has been honest. I know my wife is looking at ZR's but no way am I getting her a 160, she'll lose her licence!

Quite a few years ago when I was a Toolmaker, the MD's wife, who was also the companies finance director owned an RS Turbo. She liked the look of the white car but never used the turbo! One day he got a call from the Police, apparently she went out on business and was trying to gather some speed on a slip road exit only to push the throttle more than she had done so before. You know what happened................turbo kicked in and she near on had a nervous breakdown on the hard shoulder...................car was sold weeks later with very few miles on it!

No one laughed.......................much!

Nice car, it doesnt have side skirts tho. All 160s came with skirts as std. Is it maybe a 120 mate?

What's the wife looking for in return? Fancy an O2 Jimny? My wife is after a ZR, not sure on the 160 though.

All of the 3 door came with Skirts, you could dress down on the 5 door.

If you are gonna wear an anorak, make sure you know all the facts

Hello, Sent you an appology by PM.

I had been wound up a treat by the animated puppets (can't say Muppets) on the ZR forum, and I just blew my fuse.

the members on here are in fact a lot friendlier, and I appologise.

I can see my Bridges burning in the moonlight !!! (well, I would do, if it would only stop raining!!

Kindest regards
Papa.
