I am wondering sometimes......world is going from bad to worse....and why did i not become a police officer????? Driving a lambo for free and no speed limits either!!!! And i thought there is nothing better than living in Hefner's villa!!!

Bought my 08 roadster gt late april.... 8000 miles now and apart from the clicking rear (left mainly) axle and the noisy clutch on idle had no probs...thought i will mention these issues at the 9000 mile service..... but 4-5 times within the last month the rev needle has stuck. it doesnt seem to do it on certain revs....although i think it prefers about 3000 rpm...usually on cruise control or if i am going steady for a while....which is rare and i think thats why it hasnt done it more often... the needle will start moving after a couple of minutes and nothing seems to sound or feel wrong.... Any ideas????

sorry to hear m8...visited closely a petrol station many years ago on a yamaha tdm 900 pulling wheelies and changing gears...stupid kidz....and wrote it off...and almost wrote off my right shoulder as well.... as its more or less my job (dentist but with excellent knowledge of anatomy) i have to tell u that depending on the severity of the injury and the state of the ligaments and the condition of your muscles u may find out that even 6 weeks are not enuf...i has to stay immobilized and u need strong anti-inflammatories...then physio and weights...lots of them...i took me two years to fully recover and avoid the surgery and 4 years know i can do press ups with 120kg with no probs whatsoever...although it doesnt feel the same....keep in mind that weights make ur ligaments stronger as well!!! anything else feel free to ask...but do as u are told from ur doctor for now....surgery is really costly and v difficult and definitely not for the nhs!!!!!

my 313 roadster gt uk model has lots of useful buttons....bose stereo controls on the left....cruise control on the right...no bluetooth tho...but since i am from a to b in zero time i need no mobile in the car!!!!

Not quite sure about the interior... but from outside its absolutely bloody awesome!!! Any info about the engine???? Thats the main downfall with the 350....it actually needs to be 400!!!! looool

VBH on 5th Gear road test said pretty much the same thing about the new engine... I think my mind is made up, going to stick it out for a 313. Never pay attention to what she says....i am so in love with her....loooool
-
54k??? thats far too long...just wanted smth better...having no probs with da Z so far....well ish...apart from a clicking noise on the rear left suspension and the rev needle that keeps sticking every now and then....
-
Had thorough test drives in coupe and roadster versions with both engines....and the 313 is a totally different engine...doesnt need to be revved hard to feel nimble and never seems to run out of puff even at 7000 rpm. 280 and 296 were depressing as i was coming from a very fast car but the 313 was so linear i didnt have to drive a gear up all the time to keep a smile on my face....plus its the latest version on the road so it holds its value better...and few probs with gearbox/clutch have been revised in the 313... and dont forget that the Z's gears are long...bloody long smtms...which means that ur left hand wont stop changing gears on the 296... hope i helped....
-
Still 1500m to go for the 9000m service....i asked Nissan Hull (evans halshaw it is now) when i bought the car tho and they said about £250 for first service....but i will want them to change spark plugs to smth better (any suggestions???) so it should be a bit more...

Datsun cherry 1.3...back in greece...i learnt how to drive on it...cos it was a two seater with a big back bit so i didnt need a house when i was 18....and wrecked it.... Lancia Delta 1.6...still got it in greece modified and as good as new..... Ford escort 1.6 with a carburator...my first car in england and i exchanged it for an 80gig ipod...loool Maserati spyder 4.2 v8...what a sound...what an acceleration....180mph many many times....had a laugh with many modded bangers...written off in the second saddest rainy day of my life... 350Z 08 gt for the last 5 months....and loving it more and more every day.... I will keep da Z no matter what....but i know what the next one is gonna be.... in 2 years time the lighter and more powerful GTR...s spec they will call it i think....unless i get married (which i doubt)...looool I v driven many many cars.....i could write a book about them....some good, some bad, some ok....and i used to make (and lose) money as a student in greece street racing my Delta from a to b.... but after the RX8 the Z is the second best car for perfecting your drifting on a quiet b road with the odd round about and a great chick trap....and thats enuf for me....

Had a maserati spyder for a year...bought it for £30k 52 reg which i thought it was a bargain.....9k service £1377....annual service £450 (yes they are separate), clutch £2300...(thought it was made of gold but actually it was £110+ an hour labour and the gearbox had to be removed for the clutch to be changed) and much more.... So boxter??? think again!!!! Took the z4 3.0 roadster only for a test drive...looks nice...the interior is nice...but it all ends there...acceleration about the same with the Z roadster (the new one) but steering numb and inaccurate...wont comment on handling..lool. sorry i cant speak about earlier models....dunno..... but i guess an M will be like a boxter...expensive to run, service and insure...and depreciate more if the economy doesnt recover...

Assuming u r getin married u r prob better off with the beamer...you can take ur kids with u anywhere....funwise 350z miles better...u ll feel 18 again...n then u may decide u r too young to get married looool...roadster n similar age to the beamer quite slower on a str8 line....but harder suspension...cheaper servicing and not much 2 go wrong 2...if u can live with the cheap feeling interior...why dont you hire one for the day n c what you think???
