Sorry Matt and anybody else whose ordered a white 370, I didn't mean to upset anyone Tbh it wasn't that bad and not something that personally bothered me, I am much more bothered about the awful orange peel effect you see on some darker coloured 350s. Colour matching problems between plastic bumpers and bodywork has been going on for years on all makes of cars and new paint legislation has not helped, but I would be more pi**ed at crunching gears or clicking rear axles. Nothings perfect these days, not even at 30K. I wouldn't worry about it now, see what happens when it's delivered. PS. White is a stonking colour for the 370 and me and my missus are very jealous.

Went to see a 350 the other day, and they had a 370 demonstrator. I didn't drive it but fired off a couple of pics for you guys. This was at Westway Nissan Wolverhampton and the tyres were shot Anyhoo, it's true what others have said about the white bumpers not matching the rest of the car, and I can't see this changing for customer cars, but I did like the pearlescent finish with the purple flecks in the sunshine.

Seriously, do you have to type the address in then? What a load of cack for £1200. Yeah Nurrish, that's where I read it, in that case I would defo be looking at something like yours when I get a Zed, Very nice install

Hi all, I have read somewhere else that the factory sat nav on the Z doesn't have full Uk post code search, is this true? I always fancied having it if possible, but if I can't put in the full six digits, then I'd rather have a Tom Tom or something else. Can someone who's got it let me know, as I'm going to look at one soon. Cheers.

About the 0-100KPH speed guys, it says: *Not optimum. Timing is likely to improve dependent on driver skill, road/ grip conditions and temperature. Independent tests in the USA have had it down to 4.9 on some of the magazine track tests on You Tube.

Yes, 25000 was early I think. Cheers CS and everybody.

Is it a 60000 miles warranty?

Cheers Martin, Was serviced at 9,18 and 25000 miles, clock showing 29000 currently.

Hi, if I buy a zed from an independent dealer and it's only 2 years old with a fsh and stamped book every 9000 miles, will the remaining year be transferable to me? Cheers.

A couple of weeks ago, I wanted to buy an 06 for £14000 from the same dealer. It went on sale on the Auto trader on the Friday morning and I phoned an hour later, but the guy said it's only just come in and being valeted and he would call me back and tell me the condition etc. Four hours later, he called to say he had taken a deposit over the phone from a guy sold unseen full price! They are snapped up here in the West Midlands.

Thanks CS and Martin, Was thinking of a GT Coupe not roadster, silver, gunmetal or black, possibly blue but definitely not sunset I thought a Mk2 300 with the updated interior so 06 for about £14000, but just read a post saying some have oil consumption issues Distance about 50-60 miles but relying on mates for lifts at the mo as car less currently, so the closer to Wolverhampton the better. Oh and preferably a main dealer for a years warranty. The one I sat in at Brum this morning was an 07 for £16500, a bit rich for me.

Thanks for the warm welcome and the words of advice Guys Update: Just been to sit in another at Brum and took the Girlfriend for her opinion. It is definitely more of an upright position as JT1703 said, I guess I was expecting more of a lying down, legs straight ahead deal like my old Audi TT. So played around with the knobs on the side and I reckon I could get used to it. If it wasn't for that lumber support sticking in me lower back it would be perfect, but I'll put up with it for the chance of owning the best GT coupe in it's price range So I'll be keeping me eyes peeled for an 06 300 GT model and popping up to ask daft questions in the near future! Cheers all. MM.

Thanks for the welcome guys, ZEDDZ, I had both dials at their lowest positions. There's not a memory position on the seats is there? Anyhoo, I'm gonna try another tomorrow, I really want this to work out as there's no other car I'm interested in to be honest.

Hi all, first post be gentle! I have loved the Z since launch, but couldn't afford one till now. I went to see a 300 07 GT model last week and although I had the seat right back on the electric switch, I felt really cramped with my knees bent at 90 degrees when resting on the pedals, or the left foot rest. The hight adjusters where in their lowest positions, but I found the lumbar support (unadjustable?) thrust me even further forward, compounding the problem, even with the seat back well back. I should mention I am almost 6ft 3 tall, my mate who is 6ft had just about enough leg room, am I missing something? It's confusing as Jerry Clarkson seemed to fit OK and he's about 6ft 4! I am genuinely gutted, I finally get to sit in my dream car and don't fit! Is there any tall forum members, and how do you get on with the car on a day to day basis?
