Hi Everyone!

A few people may recognise the username and it was only going to be a matter of time before I ended up on here. Due to a possible move around at work I may loose the company car (YAY!) and therefore get a bit more money as a result. We have always been 260 fans and been itching for one for a while so will be on the hunt in a few weeks/months time. I hope to gain more knowledge from this great site so will look forward to getting to know you all in due course.


For those that don't know me or Kate here are a few of our previous projects.


My old 105 ZR

Thats what we have had including a TF 135 but Kate hated that only a week after owning it so nothing really happened with it lol.


So Now....We are back in...


This :D


He is called Archie as Kate names all our cars lol. As you can see he is a 2002 180 in Le Mans Green, he has been fully converted to a MK2 exterior but retained the MK1 interior so to us its the best of both worlds. This is by far the cleanest ZS we viewed that was for sale and had to snap it up, Keith was a gent and held the car for a couple of weeks while the Civic sold. A great bloke to talk to and a pleasure to do business, thanks mate for letting him go :)

Many Thanks,

Welcome from Downunder Luke! Good luck with your search - I'm sure you will find something equally as stunning as your other Zed cars. I think a Monogram one might suit you!! :-)
