Just got my 350z from the garage after swapping it for my e46 m3 after such frustration with constantly getting my pants pulled down by BMW!
First thing i had to do was service the car and it cost under £200.00 which was great compared to the £711.00 i paid for an inspection service on the e46 and i saved £650.00 for the year
First views are fantastic, great handling, great noise and the looks to go with it! Its black with alzean and rays alloys, the leather is a bit of a love or hate opinion but i think it goes nicely against the metalic black
I have just got back from a weekend at the Nurburgring which was amazing - quite a few zeds there and around 2 or 3 supercharged ones - we went in convoy with 6 or 7 cars including a gun metal 350z which was driven by 'Sleg' who told me to get myself registered on the forum
One thing i would say to any 350z owners around the Nottinghamshire area is try to avoid Evans Halshaw in Mansfield, they have been an utter nightmare - firstly they 'forgot' to get me a courtesy car even though they told me over the phone that i would have ready when i arrived, secondly they didnt wash the car and last but not least i asked them to fit an i pod lead to my zed which they said they could do, so i agreed and picked the car up the following week, on my arrival i paid nearly £150.00 which was a bit ott but i was willing to pay this to get what i wanted, i then walked over to my car to see that they had fitted an fm transmitted mp3 connector which sounds terrible. I quickly took this up with the manager who told me that they dont do an i pod lead and that i would simply have to keep it.....i soon put him right but he still insisted that he couldnt do anything however i have been back today and i will be getting my money back
Anyway im not going to let that get in the way of my new purchase!
Just afew queries if anyone could help: -
1. Does anyone know how i can get an i pod connector? i have the bose system with 6 cd changer but i dont know if i need to replace the whole unit to get an i pod connector to work??
2. Can anyone get hold of a boot cover as anyone can see straight through my rear window and im thinking it might get broken into if things are on show
3. This is a bit of a strange one but i have a strange clicking noise when i put my accelerator down so far and the same click as i bring my foot off the pedal - it seems to be coming from the rear drivers side
Any responses would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Mark
