    Go for it- just the noise when you fire it up makes ownership worthwhile.

    Im in it for the long term- these cars are addictive

    Thumbs up

    When I was looking to buy my fisrt 260, I went to view it and the xpower rear boxes were already fitted, the guy wound it up and boooooom!!......you would buy it for sound alone. I almost did at that point - get one, you'll be making a great choice.

    Well.......I've had 3 ZT's but never a V8. Always wanted one but could never afford one. Last year I went after 2 and lost them both, but finally got one, albeit with a bit of a chequered history, but at bargin price.

    I've had it over a month and never driven it, nor, any ZTV8 coming to that.

    I've wanted one since they were first released, and this was probably the best opportunity.


    I can't wait to drive it, hopefully next week...

    But it's on the road and used every day.
    See you use your's regularly, just how regularly. I'm in a quandry about whether to go for one as I tend to do a fair number of business miles a year. I do have the option of another car, but that would leave it to do the school run - nuff said.

    I'm not desperately worried about costs, but given this car is going to be a future classic (here's hoping) then it seems a bit manic to clock up the miles on it, as opposed to just enjoy.

    any thoughts?

    ... and no chance of three cars on the drive!
