HEADPHONES Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Just finished my 2 weeks Christmas holidays. For 2 weeks I've been spending time with the family and driving around in a Mini Cooper and a Kia Sportage. Today I was back to work. Just me and the Zed commuting. You don't realise how nice it is to drive until you do without it for a couple of weeks. Dare I say I even welcomed and missed the characteristic gearknob vibrations that people slated on the Zed's release. Let's me know the car is alive 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntelopeSam Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Feel the same when I jump in my Zed after driving an astra (after the series landy it's like a luxury space ship). It's a very nice place to sit, even traffic lights suddenly don't seam too bad! +1 for the gear stick vibrations ;). It just adds to the experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davey_83 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 The seating position and nearly vertical steering wheel adds to the experience, amazing cars!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee370Z Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Completely agree I'm used to driving a Mini Cooper S and I went out in the 370Z today for the first time in just over 3 weeks. To say that I enjoyed driving it is an understatement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyoldjanner Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Agreed. Got into motorbiking last year and every now and again get thoughts of selling the Zed for a cheap and practical run about (normally when I'm stuck behind a queue of traffic doing 40 on a 60mph twisty A road) and upgrading the bike. Then I have to drive one of the work's diesel Astras and after returning to base and getting in the Zed to drive home soon change my mind! There is also the smug satisfaction of driving something a little different (and beautiful!) rather than another drab identical looking Euro box. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
