Part 4 (final) 75 to Dunster
 
We had a great weekend and found the 75 to be every bit as good as we had hoped. Comfortable, refined and still turns a few heads.

The area we visited is packed with things to do and places to visit (it would make a fantastic club or regional club weekend).

I spotted a fair few 75/ZT's all of which were in very good condition and looked to be well cared for. There was a fantastic Red V6 ZT saloon parked in the 'workman's' car park (the bit opposite the platform), a beautiful Gold 75 parked in Dunster visitor centre car park (see photo below) and a face lift welsh 75 tourer towing a caravan that followed us on the motorway.

To finalise. The 75 is a great car, it still looks good and is wonderful to travel in. Thanks for reading, all the best John.

An excellent post John. I, like yourself never hurry anywhere nowadays, the 75 (mobile armchair ) driving experience lasts longer if you take your time. regards, Mark. :clap:

Thanks Mark. The 75/ZT has certainly stood the test of time :)

nice story John, been to Blue Anchor myself and the Smugglers Inn, your car looks really smart, but consider getting your self a badge to stick on the the warning triangle, looks great when opening the boot

Thanks Rob. I'm going to be getting a couple of boot badges, one from ebay and one from X-part.

Blue Anchor/Dunster or even the WSR would make a great spring run ;)

Well done John, and great to read a good positive comment on a 1.8.
Your car by the way looks great and hope you have many more comfortable trips with it. You will need to stretch the 75's legs one day, with a visit to Scotland and the West Highlands for more great scenery.
Were you anywhere near Selworthy Village? I visited there many years ago and was amazed with the layout of the place and remember it's thatched cottages. A beautiful spot.
Regards,
Telfer.

Thank you Telferstr. We were not to far away and have visited it before. It's a very nice place.

A visit to the West Highlands is a great idea :)
