Yet another potential buyer!

[Roadsterstu]

Hi there! I'm currently doing my research and looking into getting myself a 260, be it ZT or ZT-T. I can see the appeal of both and know of the extra rarity of the estates. I have hankered after one of these cars since first seeing one on Top Gear.

My main problem is, however, that I have never been up close to one of these cars yet, let alone been driven in one. I'm near Nuneaton and have seen some Midlands-based members on here and wondered if any kindly souls may be willing to meet up and show me over the car? Naturally I wouldn't expect a drive myself - you wouldn't would you, with someone you didn't know - but a short ride out in a car would be hugely appreciated if that were possible, but the main reason would be to just point out those areas to be mindful of when buying. I'm a genuine bloke and if anyone is able to oblige, I'll PM my phone number so we can chat first.

This seems like a good, friendly place, so I look forward to someone being able to help me out.

Thanks, chaps,

Stu

Hi Stu! - If you want, on the 13th September there is a meet in Cannock with the 75&ZT club and me and a guy by the user name merl will be there with our V8's. Your more then welcome to come up!

Hi stuart, get yourself assimilated . where are you ?

[Roadsterstu]

Hi all, and thanks for the welcome. I'm near Nuneaton. The meet on 13 Sept sounds good but I'm working during the day, sadly. And it's the missus' birthday, so we'll be out later on. If I book a day off work to look at cars but not do anything with her for her birthday, I'll be in for it...!

I could manage a run out a few miles across the Midlands to meet up sometime, however, if it's convenient.

You say that like it's a bad thing !!

Ah thats a shame, bring her with you and stop off on the way back for a meal?.....

If i'd have known about this on sat i'd have stopped off coming back from Bedford,

hello and welcome, another stu to add to the collective

Well I've tried to get Sunday off work but it's not going to happen, sadly, otherwise I would have had a run up to Cannock. Stu C, I've PM'd you, for info.

I was out and about with work last night, near where I live. Anyone on here know of a grey facelift 260 saloon on a 54 plate, in Hinckley? If the owner is on here, it could be a really useful contact for me...
