twobears Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Hello everyone, Next Thursday I am taking delivery of my first ever Zed (2006 Roadster) as I have learned to call it from browsing the forum for the last hour or so. Oddly enough I once owned a Z horse but that's probably irrelevant on a car forum. I am so excited because my current car, old Range Rover is sooooo boring to drive and the test drive in the new car was so much fun that I didn't want it to end! I am female and know nothing about cars so have a lot to learn as you all seem to use a quite a bit of jargon and I haven't a clue what most of it means. Please be kind as I do want to learn. Thanks, Annie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ioneabee Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 a very technical term for you ... "sprinkle" = female Z owner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobears Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 Thank you for the kind welcome I can't really believe that I am getting such a beautiful car. I only went up to the garage for a couple of new batteries for my Range Rover's remote and I came back having PX'd it for a Zed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobears Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 "sprinkle" = female Z owner Um, what does that mean or shouldn't I ask? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobears Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 It's Azure Blue. I think that's why it caught my eye because the colour is so nice. I generally try not to look at the 'Desirable Car' section on the forecourt because I am a bit impulsive. I should maybe mention that I have only had my current Range Rover for 3 weeks but driving it is so tedious that I knew I'd made a mistake the second I drove it off the drive. I bought it to tow my horse box but now I have nothing to tow with. Oops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Builder49 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Wonders if there should be a dating section in this forum????? (obviously so different cars can meet each other ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobears Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 It does make me feel better. Thank you I have never been on a car forum before (usually stick to horse forums) and wasn't quite sure what to expect, especially since I am not a man.

twobears Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 Can I ask stupid questions without being laughed at? If I can, my first question is - how do you clean the Roadster? I've never had a car with a folding roof before. I apologise if that is a totally stupid question. I know quite a lot about a variety of subjects but cars aren't included in my knowledge base so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The search function in the top right take a bit of getting used too, but it can get you answers much quicker than posing new topics sometimes and also check the FAQ link in my signature.
