cant make my mind up in these,    Funny that, I was looking at those the only yesterday! Where did you order from? seem to be about £60-70 per wheel from what I've seen!  very tempted to treat myself though, much better than some scabby second hand wellers! pity they don't seem to do 13s though  edit: and they didn't have any info on fitments on the site i saw, so don't even know which would fit |

Zephyr 6 is pretty rare isn't it ?? about 100-110 bhp mate nothing sparkling but nice noise and torquey, I'm v8ing it for next year but running the 6 this year, i just found out that the zephyr 6 is a lot rarer than the zodiac so chuffed about that |

To find the original thread use the search facility (button) at the top of the reader's rides page - alternatively, you can click your own username anywhere within the forum and you'll get this page: retrorides.proboards86.com/index.cgi?action=viewprofile&user=mk3gtClick on 'view recent posts' (change the amount if needed) and find the old thread. If you don't fancy either of those options bookmark/save/copy/write down this address now: retrorides.proboards86.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=readersrides&thread=1174763751 - that is the original 'my new ride' thread. In the meantime: new water pump and hoses fitted, front plate fitted, going on a run later  rear plate fitted rear speakers fitted now were to put the radio :wacko:  still got to lower it, fit the plates and make a system but put the wheels on last night   just to explain, stanley was my late father, my inspiration in life and my best friend, his favourite car he ever owned was his zephyr six and hes always in my thoughts and dreams  |

I vote for a slight drop on the front for a bit of a killer nose down stance. Car looks stunning, and I love the reg plates. There even more special because of the sentiment bhind them.
