    Default Hello from Northern Ireland!

    Hello everyone, hope you are all well. I'm greeting you all from Northern Ireland

    I one day plan to own a ZT V8, hopefully sooner than later. I drive a ZT diesel at the moment which I absolutely love but I now do a lot less miles than what I was so can't really justify having one.

    Currently have my eye on a few V8's so I'm hoping it won't be long before I am able to buy.

    Thanks,

    Kris.

    Welcome! Now seem to be the time to get one (if you're not driving a huge amount) as with higher fuel prices more people are selling them (fools!)

    Hello all. Yes I have seen many more for sale now than say 6 months ago so I'm hoping it won't be long before I am able to buy.

    I would be after a facelift ZT saloon with the SE spec. My ZT diesel is firefrost red which I absolutely love but I haven't seen one in this colour before. I do like them in green and have seen one on pistonheads which looks very nice indeed. Only thing I'm hesitant about is its mileage (99k) but after doing a lot of reading this engine seems to be good for many more than this, just I would prefer one with less than this.

    The one I would absolutely love is John Newey's Poseidon which just looks stunning!

    If I can get the funds together then it will be top of my list. My problem is I can't sell my car until I have another to go straight into, I have become too dependant on it I have applied for a loan so will be interesting to see whether or not its approved and then I can make a large repayment off it when my car sells.

    have you thought about asking John Newey if he would do a part exchange deal?
