Y23DRH Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 210k?! Sweet baby jebus. One sweet looking roadster, and I usually abhor them! Thanks buddy I've had the car quite a while now almost on 212,000 miles and will go up every day. It's great fun over the years. I would happily sell it but I guess with that many miles on it wouldnt be worth much, so just get used along side the other cars at the moment.

PPod Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 That's a great achievement think you should keep going for as long as possible just to see how much the engine can take. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y23DRH Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 not posted on here in quite some time zed still going strong 220.000 miles and counting, daily driver by choice, always fun to drive, she did decide to cause a couple of problems tho so i had to replace water pump radiator and fans fitted my purple rockercovers and new gaskets full service including gearbox and diff both auxiliary belts thermostat phew think that's about it for now I could have easily replaced the zed after she broke but I like the zed shes been with me for a very long time and is going no where, she's now back on the road and eating up those miles, and im still smiling so its deffiently worth it, couple of photo's of the zed now! more updates to come soon.
