    Default Hello

    Hello to all. After a short loan of a car from a dealer in late 2004 I have been waiting for quite a few years to get a ZT 260 and have finally managed to do it. The dealer was canny and knew that I'd find my ZT 190 lacking and that I'd be lured in by the sound from the X-power 'silencers'. I was, but sadly for him, and also me, I was not in a position to buy. I'll be collecting the car tomorrow hopefully. Can't wait.
    So, essentially, this is a big hello and a thank you for the very useful information and invaluable advice that I got from the site before joining.....................

    Welcome aboard Stu, quite a lot of us came from the ZT190

    You have a lot of reading ahead of you.

    Stu is after info on the best insurer and is a fan of the X-power exhausts.

    Just like to say thanks to all for the welcome. I have been doing much reading and shall do much more, it's all good stuff

    I got the car today and have done a couple of hundred miles to get used to it. I'll be off to a local company tomorrow to see if they can make some silencers up for me too. Seems like I've left it all a little late to get X-Powers unfortunately. I'll post some photo's as soon as I get chance to as well. Still much grinning going on here, face is beginning to ache. Even my wife thinks it's great. Which is something of a miracle in itself. I'll post more soon

    Welcome Stu, from Downunder! Make sure you work your way quickly through the known problems, especially the aircon compressor. Mine has cost an arm and a leg to fix just recently !
    VIN 206
    This is definitely not her car...
