R800NER

I have 2 years driving experience and 2 years ncb with an excellent post code which all effect the premium. Premiums are very expensive for people with hardly any years driving on their license. Mine will still be £1200 ish when I turn 21, but it's the price to pay if you want to maintain a car like the Zed at my age.

haha way too late, except I am looking for a perfect car, which is currently chilli red so I need convincing....!

Do the GT4's have cruise control? Also, do they suffer from the revision engine's tendency to drink oil?

He's very eager don't you know!

 

If you are buying a ZED under 21, the last thing you need to worry about is what edition it is

I get excited

No I am just insane and feeling impulsive. I got my Nismo parts through being impulsive!

Does the GT4 have the facelift lights (I am pretty sure it doesn't, but need to confirm)?

I am just checking if the GT4 makes a difference to insurance (biggest factor to me as I am not 21 yet!) and also begging to borrow the driveway if not, but I am really interested and would like to take a look at the car tomorrow if possible?

I will change my sig after the viewing!

Lastly, do you have any pictures of the interior?

STOP!

I am interested!

I have been looking for a red zed for ages and this just took me by suprise......would I be able to come and view it tomorrow? I feel impulsive!

I have left a message on your mobile Mark.

I was looking for a UK model, however if you post the spec (as I don't know the equivalent trim level for a UK GT model) I would take a look at it? Need more info though really please!

What's different about a Jap zed and a UK zed? K/mph?

I was hoping to get a JWT pop charger, but does anyone have a link to a sound file or youtube video that shows this K&N in action? Like a Zed pulling away? I am tempted to get the card out again!

It's 10 mins from my house.....but I currently only have a minging old Golf and a garage full of Nismo parts!

I might turn up to have a look at people's motors and maybe somebody could take me for a spin to keep me happy till I get my zed

Typical, their website has been down for 2 days.... am I right to be suspicious?

Will do, first refusal on any of my NISMO bits if I end up changing my mind (Unlikely!)

I understand that my 19" Nismo's have built in spacers.....but I heard/read somewhere that I will need to lower the car at the rear? What are my options?

Leave it standard (will it really notice?)

Lower it with suspension setup? I am fairly new to modifying suspension so help would be appreciated!

In the current economic climate, I would say that I stand a good chance as I have built up a list of same spec/mileage with price differences to show how overpriced it is.

Price on the Nissan site suggests it's now £14,495.....

 

I want all the extras though, I have saved up for this and want everything on it! That way I don't have to upgrade and it will be perfect

 

So aiming for £12,000.....do you think anyone would view it for me in Wallasey?? Otherwise I will have to find some excuse with business to travel up there!

Sorry to bump, do you think it's worth enquiring? Do you think anyone on the forum would be able to view the car for me? or is that a bit cheeky?

After how many miles do these usually need replacing? Also, is it possible to get larger discs to prevent wheels from looking hollow (like pram wheels!)?

hmmm I think I may call them tomorrow, Liverpool isn't close to Oxford so don't want to drive for a waste of time.

The advert worrys me slightly:

Make : NISSAN

Model 350Z

Engine Size 3.5

Edition V6 285 GT

Body

Spec Air Con, PAS, Leather Interior, CD

Colour Red

Date 02/09/2004

Miles 25,000

Owners 2

Price £ 14,995

2 owners and 25,000 miles in 3/4 years... is that about right? Also, it says GT, but without more photos I cannot tell? I suppose leather interior and CD give it away, but they have hardly boasted about the car?

I get the impression they don't know much about the car...is that a good thing or a bad thing when trying to haggle?

How much do you think it's actually worth?

How many chilli red have been produced pre facelift? any ideas? Am I likely to get the same opportunity closer to May?

Sorry for the Q's

Aren't you a guardian angel!

Well a few things come to mind with the price:

It's not a facelift

It's 2004 plate

It's got the old wheels

A 313 facelift chilli is £18,000 on a 57 plate

I think it's worth £13,000 (would be less if it wasn't red!)

Might check finances and pick one up early if it's in good nick....though it will be stuck on the drive for a while!

Is this suitable... (Sorry if you've already seen it)

It’s overpriced, but I’m sure there’s room for movement in price…

 

Wow, hadn't seen that! Where did you spot that one as I have been watching pistonheads and autotrader like a hawk!!

That's just what I am after, shame that it is about £2k overpriced?

Oh that is quite nice, though I think if I don't get a red one I won't be satisfied!

Yum, very tidy.....hmmmm I will have a think.

After driving my Golf around, I simply cannot wait for a red one to come about if I don't see one by May.

Anyone have any photos of a NISMO 350z in Azure blue? I searched everywhere and haven't seen one azure nismo kitted zed with the LMGT4 wheels..... maybe I could be a first

Well I got a set in the end, £850 with Falken tyres. Absolute bargain, just need a wee bit of TLC.

I am over the moooooon

That one on Autotrader has been there for about 3 months!!! I will stay away from it I think.

The others are a bit overpriced, I am hoping that with the new numberplate (09) coming out and 370Z later this year that a 2006 model will fall into budget.

I love your car ersen, looks really tidy without the spoiler actually.... got anymore photos from the side and rear? Not sure if I should use my NISMO spoiler or not now!

Just had the wheels delivered and boy are they stunning, I could sit here all day staring at these babies! Just gotta get a car before May and I am laughing

I think I just creamed my pants! That's awesome!! Exactly how I want mine B)

I really dislike the roadster I am afraid that looks tidy, but prefer my nismo wheels on the coupe

Thanks for the heads up on the wheels CS, 19inch LMGT4 wheel nuts, caps and tyres with 5mm tread for £882 including delivery.

I owe you one

P.s. I need to speak with your guys about fitting and spraying still!
