  1. Not sure on the Phaeton, as for audi, I guess a A5 s line coupe is a possibility along with the TT tdi even if a bit hairdresser! Not convinced on the new c class coupe, just checked out the new 6 series coupe .....n wow does that looks amazing .....40k for the cheapest is over budget, could be the car after next thou
  2. After selling zed to a fellow member on here well over a year ago its time for me to look for my next 'nice' car. Unfortunately its not economical for me to get a big engined petrol, if it was my decision would be easy, either a 370z or save a bit more and get a gt-r So ideally I'm looking for an auto diesel.... A couple of years ago I was really tempted by a clk 320 cdi sport but their starting to look a little dated now so 90% decided on the e class coupe (2010+ plate), for some reason I seem to have it in my head that the clk is better built.....! Other options could be 3 series coupe 330/335 diesel...being fairly common motor is a neg. Anyone with experience of any of the mentioned above or thoughts about similar types...
  3. reduced to £340 - will be going on the the bay by the end of the week, so if anyones interested let me know
  4. Unwanted upgrade Still sealed, comes with everything you would expect buying from the T Mobile Store. Locked on T Mobile Phone is in Marble White Looking for £370, collection preferred which can be from either Preston, Lancs (weekends) or Alfreton, Derbyshire (weekdays)
  5. Now Sold, new owner picked it up earlier today so kinda a sad day but glad it'l remain in the forum, I'm sure the new owner will be along shortly to introduce himself. Thanks to everyone on here, fantastic place, one of the most friendliest and helpful forums I've been on, i'l still be lurking around, hopefully a 370z owner one day
  6. You might be able to find a closer Chorley Nissan branch http://www.chorleynissan.co.uk/ they're scattered throughout the north west. I've used Chorley Preston and more than happy with their pricing and service
  7. Deposit taken, sale due to be completed within the next few weeks. Will update upon completion so thread can be locked.
  8. Email sent 3 previous owners: 1st owner was Wessex Nissan Dealer 2nd owner acquired on 18.03.2005 3rd owner acquired on 25.02.2009 I purchased the car 12.11.2010 Thanks Saty
  9. Hi Invame Totally understand mate, always best to get as much information as possible especially if its a distance to travel Mechanically its sound, no clicky axle issues, clutch feels fine no issues here either. No rust issues, the only issue was with the bonnet (common prob) but i guess i've been lucky as Nissan replaced this under warranty, no other rust on the body work, in fact its in very good condition. Tyres are all about 5mm mark, however they are all budget tyres and the zed would benefit from a better quality of tyre (as discussed on the forum many times), I've been looking forward to changing these for a while but couldn't bring myself to bin the budgets when theirs loads a tread left. So to answer your question, the tyres are next on the list to be renewed. No problems with the windows, and everything else electrically works as it should including the air con I will get some detailed pictures of the wheels/boot/engine/body close ups etc uploaded this weekend Any other questions give me a shout, if its easier I can pm you my contact number to discuss further. Thanks Saty

  11. Had the plugs and brakes done by my local mechanic 2 months before so Nissan were happy to do a P2 instead Also should mention, RAC cover included (expires December 2012)
  12. Looking to sell my beloved zed, soon to be getting a company car so the zed requires a new home Ownership for me personally has been immense, this is the best car I have ever owned, power, looks, sound, value I could go on! It goes without saying I am a car enthusiast and like to look after my cars, the zed is certainly no exception, I often wash/wax/clay the paintwork and only every fill up using Shell V-Power fuel. The private plate will be removed prior to sale. I have a folder full of paperwork, all previous mot's and service receipts, it comes with 3 keys (2 of which are unused). UK GT Coupe December 2003 '53 Plate, Manual, 6 Gear, Metallic Gunmetal Grey. • MOT December 2012 • Tax Feb 2013 • Full Nissan Service History • 55,600 miles This has the GT pack, which comes complete with the following extras: • Cruise Control • HID headlights • Heated leather seats • 18" Rays Alloys • Air Conditioning • Brembo Brakes • Electric folding mirrors • Alezan leather seats (optional extra at point of sale) Standard Spec List: Climate Control, Factory CD Multiplayer, Xenon Headlamps With Wash, Heated Electric Leather Sports Seats, Multifunction Steering Wheel With Cruise, Rain Sensor Wipers, Electric Heated Folding Mirrors, Electric windows, Power assisted steering, Front Centre Armrest, Park distance control, Clear Lenses, Body Coloured Bumpers, Remote Central Locking, Factory Alarm, Factory Immobiliser, Electronic Stability Program, ABS Service History • 10k P1 (Mar 2005) Nissan Wessex Newport • 15k P2 (Nov 2005) Nissan Wessex Newport • 19k P1 (Nov 2006) Nissan Wessex Newport • 25k P3 (Nov 2007) Nissan Wessex Newport • 31k P1 (Nov 2008) Nissan Wessex Newport • 41k P2 (Dec 2009) Nissan Northgate • 48k P1 (Dec 2010) Nissan Chorley Preston • 54k P2 (Dec 2011) Nissan Chorley Preston Additionally, I've had the following work carried out (R=receipt present): • Bonnet replaced with brand new under warranty, supplied and fitted by Chorley Nissan Preston R (Feb 2012) R - viewtopic.php?f=9&t=57809 • Denso Iridium Spark Plugs (Oct 2011) Supplied by Zamanalex • All 4 Discs & Pads replaced (Oct 2011) R • Front ARB links replaced with genuine Nissan parts (Oct 2011) R • Alt & Air Con belts replaced with Gates belts (Jun 2011) R • Exhaust replaced with a newer used genuine nissan (Jun 2011) I've also made the following mods: • Kenwood DNX7200 - includes Sat Nav, Bluetooth, iPod/Iphone connectivity, DVD/MP3/WMA playback, steering wheel controls • Reversing Camera - looks like this one viewtopic.php?f=27&t=58783 • Stubby aerial • Aero wipers • LED rear numberplate bulbs • Silvervision Chrome indicator bulbs (link for pics) Bad Points • Stone chips to front bumper • Alloys could do with a refurb, curbing to fronts. I honestly believe if the above 2 bad points were rectified this would be one of the cleanest 2003 around, the new owner will not be disappointed. The Kenwood system paired with the GT Spec offers all the mod cons you could wish for and I know for a fact my new motor won't be this loaded. £7250 More pics to follow...
  13. They didn't ask to see my service book when I claimed, although they prob hold all the details on their system as I've got full Nissan history, I'm unsure regarding pint (by this I guess you mean bodywork?) inspection, I know for a fact I've not requested nor been offered this come service time
  14. I'm not the original owner either so that shouldn't make a difference. I guess it all boils down to how good your local Nissan dealer is, the one I used is Chorley Nissan in Preston, they have branches throughout the north west are generally well regarded. Good luck!
  15. Apologies on the delayed update on this, been working away over the last couple of week! Anyways gave the zed a good clean on friday, here's some pics including the new bonnet courtesy of nissan Corrosion gone Rusty no more Brand spanker bonnet Used megs metal polish on the headlights, yet another good tip found on here AG used on the Alezan came up quite well, will be trying liquid leather soon! I know its not to everyones taste but got to say the Alezan is definitely my favourite option
  16. went in 2010 for a stag do, stayed at the Encore....amazing place, by far the best hotel I've ever stayed at! Didn't do any shows!
  17. Picked up a black IP4 32gb yday - sorted
  18. Cheers guys, knew you would be all made up certainly was a result I wasn't expecting Spoke to the bodyshop people earlier and asked them to give me a quote on the front bumper too (may as well make the zed perfect ), they said they'l give me a call on monday with a quote, can anyone give me a clue as to how much I should be expecting? Yes, from what I've read on here the bonnet is alloy
  19. Couple of months ago when detailing the zed I noticed a small (>5p sized) bit of bubbling on the front bonnet just above the nissan badge, remembered reading on here about the 12 year Perforation Warranty, my zed it a 2003 so not exactly a young gun however still within the warranty period. Booked the zed in with Chorley Nissan (Preston) for its annual service in Dec and upon picking I mentioned this to them then, as it was dark they advised to come during the day so that they could take some pictures and send to Nissan HQ. So last week I popped in, one of the service guys (really helpful guy) came out took some pics, initially he said Nissan would try and reject the claim and blame stone chips, however, popped the bonnet and it was clear as day that the corrosion was coming from underneath, the guy took loads of pics and advised its up to HQ to decide and I willl get a call back... Just got off the phone, they have a brand new bonnet for me which will be sprayed and fitted next week Can honestly say, the service I receive from Chorley Nissan (Preston) has been 1st class, service prices aren't bad either Before pics... Bonnet looks in fairly good condition Very small bit of corrosion coming through Closer look... Corrosion more apparent under the rubber seal zed's currently at the body shop, will post more pics when she returns home in the mean time im cruising automatic nissan note not! Update: Zed is home, after pics below
  20. thanks for the info Toms, will check out avforums re: jb&unlocked, never fancied a jb, looking for either unlocked or on tmobile
  21. how would you unlock the phone? Jailbreak? Also what colour is it in? Yeah as long as it hasnt changed too much from a month or so back i can unlock it via jailbreak. Its a black one. not too keen on a jailbroken one, can it be factory unlocked via your network provider?
