I am often in Aldridge in my ZTT visiting company office and have never spotted a 75 orZT with a forum sticker.If fact apart from a meet I have have only ever spotted 1 75 with a club sticker. You should join us at the Brownhills meet last we'd eve every month over summer period or as Trebor said lots of members at the nano

If we could put a fluorescent spot at the top of the windscreen at the centre we could erm, 'spot' each other from afar.

I totally agree i'm not happy with the lack of salutation either

being a keen forum chap and real life sociable with it , I do think a bit of reverse action is required. The stickers just arent easy to spot especially if someone passes you the other way and all you see is the front screen wizz past you.

So here goes , I'm in the Buntingford/Stortford area and have a ZT-T in Silver and a ZT saloon in Silver. I know there are folk in 'the' Garden City , Takeley , Harlow , Baldock and others round here so best you start flashing waving and generally making me feel loved

I agree with ALL of this. There was a beautiful 75 Tourer just pulling out of the Tesco car park in Padiham this morning, the guy saw me looking and thumbs-upped with a huge smile on his face. Sooo...

I live in Clayton le Moors near Blackburn, I'm around Accrington, Padiham, Burnley, Blackburn. I have a Pearl Black facelift ZT 190, KX54GXT.

I love this car...

I'm all for a wave; not just for club members, but for all 75 & ZT drivers.
After my 75 and before my current ZT-T, I owned a Mazda Bongo for 5 years.
Bongo drivers ALWAYS wave to each other!
It's surprising how just a little wave can relieve the drudgery of a lengthy commute and make you feel part of a community.

PS - I've had my ZT-T and been a member here for 2 months now and haven't seen a single club grille badge or tax disc holder out on the road yet

I bit the bullet and dished out a wave on my way home tonight on the A27 near Swanwick, to the owner of the red rover 75, thank you for your response, you have a very long middle finger.... Lol

As a woman I take offence!!! As a ZTT driver I do think about waving but then get all shy

I too look at every rover 75 and often give a little gesture of approval. Mine is a white gold v plate rover running serpents and soon a rear boot spoiler, i know many of the purists will not like it but its my old girl n i love her! Looking forward to some waves!!!!!!
