Most of the problem here would appear to be down to poor communication, driven by the message in the middle of the front page. To stop this happening again I would suggest that if someone (a Moderator?) has a good contact for the Webmaster, they ask him to change the front page from contacting the W...

Zip Window
I think it was a feature of the early MX-5 that window needed to be un zipped, but it's not that case for the Z3; as Robert says, there is no way to undo the Zip day to day.
