My New Zed
well the day finally came yesterday where i got to collect it
got to glasgow the night before and the hotel wasnt too bad..... aside from the pool being out of order
the view was quite nice.... if you ignore the car park
finally got to the dealership for about 11am.... it was overcast at this stage and rain was coming down some. sat down in the showroom and had a quick look around before signing the paperwork
then got taken round back to give the car a once over and it wasnt too shabby lol
then i got some pics of me with the car prior to handover
finally, left at about 12noon and had a looooooong drive back to derby which took me just over 4 hours and 285 miles...... i was pooped to say the least
and now here it is parked on the road
and finally got round to putting the stubby on
i did request debadged but didnt realise it wasnt until after i got home lol and it was too late by then

the auto box is great although a bit lazy in comfort mode. sports mode is more like it lolWondermike wrote:Oooh nice, recession white is really growing on me.
