Drove 2000 miles through Europe, taking in 6 countries. The ZR didnt miss a beat.

I ended up putting around 500ml of engine oil in towards the end but thats all.

The German autobahns are not a nice place for a 1400cc to be travelling for 5 hours straight but still, we kept up quite nicely, sticking to around 4K revs most of the time which is around 95mph.

One day, I thought the window washer jets had failed but they turned out to be iced up.

Anyway, a few pics of the trip -

Leaving Dover



Met some crazy Mexicans in Brussels and got super wasted



Which resulted in a fall down some stairs and a few facial injuries





Went to the Netherlands




Somewhere else



Hit the Romantiche Strasse in Germany, an awesome driving road!!







Got stuck in a parking space haha



Some nice open spaces for mucking about in the motor!

Class man how long where you away? Would love to do this sort of thing.  I had a blue one of these and in truth it was a really good car.

We were only gone for 8 days, it was a real quick blast really with a night or 2 in each country. really good fun though. I need a holiday now though haha.

Not much to report really, apart from more trouble free motoring!!

Went to the Autosport International show and saw some nice MGs







Some nobhead in a Jag tried to use the last two spaces for his one car but I still managed to get in



It snowed



And last Sunday we had a huge snow dump and the only other car I saw in about 35 minutes of driving was an MG!!




I do have some proper plans for this car and the updates will come. The weather is just to crap to do anyhing worthwhile at the minute. Especially now I dont have a garage.

Good work fella. I'm struggling to resist the urge to add a ZR to the fleet. I have no use for one other than it would be fun to zip about in occasionally!
