Hope it doesn't end with even more "model specific" separate owner's club/forums
I would still have posted had it been a 75.

I must admit I think of the two as the same, never having been in a ZT, even though I know there are significant differences in most areas.

Having driven all variants now except a 1.8 non turbo, the ZT range does make one drive more aggressively but there is no excuse for bad/dangerous driving as mentioned in the first post.

My Subaru friend lent us his Impreza STi WR1 (340 BHP!!) for a week, for giving him a lift to the Airport. I must say that beast could turn a driver into an absolute animal in the wrong hands. in our mid 40's now we are both past that sort of behaviour.

If you are not careful I will revoke your privileges and take your V8 for one of my spins.

Oh good

I'm looking forward to that.

My car, previous to my two 75 diesels, was a 620Ti which was extensively modified and produced a proven 320 bhp. I was fun to drive, but it didn't mean that I drove without courtesy or care.

I think it's one each, they only share the prettiest sheep up there.
