350z + farm off road Z

Is it a tarmac'd farm? if so can i use it to play on

Its good for pulling the horse box . Im always trying to get the lane concreted or tarmaced falls on deaf ears though. I was very worried the first time I drove it down the lane if it would scrape the bottom on not.

Im 22 and my insurance is free!! Beat that!

 

WHAT, does ur dad pay for it or something...

 

I'm jealous

Kind of. But not in a spoilt way. I work on the family farm and all our vehicles are covered on a fleet policy. So theres 3 tractors, a quad, land rover, brothers car, parents car and my 350z. It doesn't them any extra to have my car on there.

Got to be some perks to working everyday of the week for stupidly long hours! Im really lucky, I wouldn't be able to afford the 350z otherwise.

Lol. I found this on the portal page and was horrified til I saw the pic. Thats a good one.

1985? I wasnt even born then!

My first car was an N reg 1.2 havent got any pics of that. Then I bought a clio 182 and spent a bit modding it.

I loved that car still miss it.

Then I got the 350z

Never heard that one before! Don't think just the effect of an anaesthetic stops you driving for more than 24 hours or so - 6 weeks????

I thought it was a bit stupid. Maybe he said it to get to ride in the zed!

Lovely colour. Looks stunning as it is.

Ive often wondered how good the security is. My car got reversed into when it was parked up and locked. I would of thought that the motion should have set the alarm off.

Ive just had a similar thing done but Ive got stitches and would be happy to be able to walk normally! When my mate had a general he was told no driving for 6 weeks because it can stay in your system.

Im planning on doing this when I have the funds. Im thinking anthracite or pewter.

Is number 3 is vredestein ultrac sessantas?

Just finished washing and polishing the car for the first time in seven weeks. Off to Bristol tomorrow to see my best mate whos just got engaged.

Hi there. I came from a 182 and am on cliosport alot! Its a great step up from the clio.

Evening all. Got a bit of a problem with the car. Theres a squeeling noise when I turn right. It starts after I have been driving for about 5 minutes. Doesnt seem to have anything to do with the brakes. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks.

Han

I'd love to do combe in the zed. Had a day there in the lotus which was awesome. Its a cracking track.

How easy is it to stick the front number plate to the bumper? What do I need to do it? Sorry for the dumb question!

In the end I went for Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas. All I can say is wow! Havent used them in the wet yet but dry grip is second to none. Well worth the money imo. Considering the amount of time I put into deciding what I wanted Im very pleased with them! It feels like Im driving a different car.

Can someone confirm the differences between the 296hp and the 309hp. Are there any physical differences? Just asking cos my zed is on a 56 plate but registered in jan 07. Its a 296bhp right?

Welcome to the forum Hannah. Great to have another lady around here help keep these boys in line.

 

Check out http://www.zchickz.com. You need to login to be able to see. It's a friendly little forum, owned and run by female Zed enthusiasts.

 

 

I always imagine lady Zed owners having massive upper arms to be able to manage such a beast of a car

Just as well someone invented power steering. No Arnie-ette's required.

thanks for that, will take a look.

At the moment Ive got the factory tyres in my Zed. Im planning a trip to the Isle of Man soon and am going to need new tyres.

I read somewhere that if you change the Bridgestones it affects the handling or something. Is that right?

If I dont have Bridgestones what am I best going with. I used to have PE2's on my clio182 and they where excellent. Considering going that way again.

Any advice much appreciated.

Han.

Welcome to the forum Hannah - 56 plate - a good year

 

Any chance you know of the Sibleys in Bude - they run a restaurant there near the front

Do you mean Lifes A Beach at Summerleaze?

Thanks for all the words of welcome guys

welcome Hannah.

 

i'm familiar with that neck of the woods as i work in plymouth. very nice driving roads and scenery .

 

i could plan a mini hoon if you are offerring pasty or pie

Pasty eh? Could be arranged. We Cornish are famous for our pasties you know

Hello and welcome - recognise you from Cliosport. Think we've both commented on each other's 350Z posts on there!

Yeah I remember. Still go on there quite a bit.

Hi everybody. Been having a look around here and thought I would introduce myself.

My names Hannah. I used to own a clio182. I thought Id treat myself to a 350z before Christmas and went to look at one at Hamiltons in Barnstaple. A 56 plate GT with 15,500 miles on the clock. Managed to wait a week before going back and buying it!

Heres a few of my favourite pictures from the couple months Ive had it. Please excuse the mud, Im a farmer and the cars isn't always as clean as I'd like!
