After asking a fair few questions for the last 2 or 3 months, I've finally found the Zed for me. I travelled quite a few miles and saw a few examples before I decided to part with my money. I've only had it for a few days but I'm already starting to become obsessed.
So she is a 2007 Ruby Black with champagne Nappa leather, 60k on the clock. The spec is fairly basic, so no sat Nav (which I'm happy about) and no heated seats. After having a look around a few I decided I was happy to compromise on the spec for my colour preference, reasonably low miles and condition of the car etc.
Today's job was to replace the regular Bosch wipers with a set of aero twin blades. Next, was a switch to a 6 speed ZHP gear knob (I was pleasantly surprised how simple this was). My initial thoughts are I like the feel of it.
I also lifted the car to get a good look underneath as I am planning to be brave and try and change the transmission fluid and diff oil myself (I'm a complete novice!). More questions to post on a different thread for that!
I was planning to swap out the interior lights for LEDs but they didn't arrive in time for the weekend. It gives me something to look forward to do over the next couple of weekends.
Any easy mod suggestions welcome......
I also just wanted to say a big thank you to all forum members for replying to my previous posts and giving me some advice on looking for the right E86.
Hopefully I've managed to post a couple of photos below
Cheers,
Lewis.
