Coping with temporary loss

[ThomasSoerensen]

Hi guys and girls

 

My Zed is in the garage since Saturday to get the new rear bumper and rear light fitted due to a neighbour crashing into my baby while I was parked. So a clear insurance job.

 

Due to my work and travel schedule I will only get Zed back on the 23rd.

 

I already miss it sooo much. I have been using the wifes boremobile for work these last days and it does not help.

 

How do you guys cope with being Zedless when the car is in for fixing or upgrading?

 

Maybe I should just go to bed a cry a littel bit.

[Demolition49]

No way to cope really just suffer it out and before you know it, its Z time

[GT4 Zed]

its easy just think this is how the rear will look when you get it back

I just went five weeks to the day without the zed

During that time it was my first aniiversary since I got her - that was the hardest... probably should have been certified by the end (if not before ) - got her back today - now have face ache

should have went to a private bodyshop through insurance as they give you a like for like car or better...

sounds like expensive insurance

 

nothing like it included in my insurance here in Germany

 

no replacement car - just saving fuel by using the Hyundai Tucson

[Stew]

I used to work away a lot. The longest I was away in one go since I bought the Zed I think was a 6 week trip to Algeria. I have a load of 3-4 week trip home for a couple of days and away again for 3 - 4 weeks though. I think that was tougher.

 

My laptop always had Zed pics on the screensaver and it used to make it worse!

never realised you were in germany...

 

I put mine off the road in the winter and its a nightmare sitting looking at it and knowing you can't drive it.

After not driving it for a while, then going back to it, you realise why you fell in love with it in the first place.

After driving the same car for a while you get used to it and dont really appreciate it.

[ThomasSoerensen]

and I still do not have The Beast back.

 

They say the Strosek bumper is a horrible fit so they have had to modify it a lot to get it to fit.

 

I hope I get my car back on Monday.

[geoff-r]

I had been without my Zed properly for the best part of the last 3 months, it was with Nissan. That was killer. I know how you feel, don't worry it'll be back before you know it

[bronzee]

Better to get it back right, otherwise it will probably bug you.

[ThomasSoerensen]

and maybe I will get it today or tomorrow or another day

 

I have almost forgotten what it looks like.

 

But my pushbike has been used a bit for a change.
