I picked mine up some 2 months back now, I'll never forget the drive home, TOTALLY AWESOME, still is to this day it brings a smile to my face every drive! Each outing brings new thrills, yes the back-end has been out once or twice and each time I take it on to the m'way I take it that little bit further round the speedo, theres no limit to this thing! Enjoy it & just keep filling it up, value for money thrills just dont come cheaper.

Cheers,I'll have to add some pics to it, when I can figure out how to download pics on to my profile. For now though check this out Hope it works. If it dosenn't go to www.hotrodphotos.co.uk & look for Goodwood 2004 in the photo albums & then for the 1939 Lincoln Zephyr.

The car's a rare, one of only18, right hand drive 1939 Lincoln Zephyr Coupe, I imported it from Australia some 5 years ago, the photos were taken at the Goodwood Festival of Speed were it was on the Cartier Style et lux stand, my only claim to fame!

Hope to get some pics posted soon, including the cerb, which incidently, when it's paked next to the Zephyr in the garage dosen't come up to half the Lincolns height! If your sat in the zephyr and glance to the left, you can't see the cerb beside it, worrying if you were in traffic together!

Get a geo check asap, also check your tyre pressures.

Take it easy for the few weeks.

I think the tracking is a bit out, plus it has on brand new tyre on the front and one needing replacing this week, so that wouldnt have helped. Plus its got some big after market 18" alloys which wouldnt help tram lining!

I spent this afternoon cleaning the inside, ill clean the outside 2mro and take some pics to post on here of my new pride and joy!

Very nice, like the colour, very unusual. I think the wrong car is in the garage, unless it belongs to the misses in which case, I'm wrong .
