Zodies 500 mile trip :)

[Ratna Zodiac]

Hi folks,

Just returned home from a 500 mile all round trip to whitby. Been there all week and done tonnes of touring about.

Nearly left it at home (girlfriend having minimal confidence "its not going to ruin my holiday, its all ready taken all summer over") - as true as this is i still took the Zody!

And much to my delight she sailed thro the journey. And more to my delight my girlfriend loves the car.

Took a trip to goathland (heartbeat country) - had to!

Felt like a celebrity, got swapped by old men. If it pulled leggy blondes with short skirts like it pulled old farts the bench seat would never be empty

Heres a few pics. So proud of the old girl, love it!

The photo thro the window was the view from the holiday cottages bedroom window haha

















Pardon the wellies!

Looks good mate, I love Whitby and that area, my wife's family is from there so we spend quite a bit of time up there but our Zodiac hasn't been up yet. What size wheels are they? They look like 14 or 15s

[v8roy]

Good on ya,nice to see you using the car after all the work you put into it

Like the wheels as joe asked are they 14,s or 15,s

I quite like the wellies!

Don't like the wheels though but it's your car - do what you want with it .

Cheers folks for comments, the wheels are off an american ford, late 50's.

They are 14" i do like the look, but also like the originals. Handles so mych better on these. Body roll is far less, much more in touch with it on bends.

Cheers!

Sound, looks great that car. Strange how the rear view shows how much the roof line alters the lines. Looks almost like a different car.

Nearly bought one when i started looking for a mk3, have a soft spot for the estates....
