Welcome to the forum. Good luck with the car hunt. That insurance sure does sound expensive though. Try a specialist as the posts above recommend.

Any questions fire away and im sure people on here can help.

Welcome to the forum, lets see some photos of that lovely looking car . Enjoy

Will confirm with the gang tomorrow morning and let you know first thing. Cheers.

Can you put me down as a definite for 1 person on the Sunday. Regarding payment do you want me to bring cash then or make payment beforehand.

Cheers for organising this. Much appreciated. Looking forward to seeing a few new zeds

Will confirm with the gang tomorrow morning and let you know first thing. Cheers.

Nice pics there good job.

Cool, some friends from work and I were definitely interested in com ing along to this. Should be a good day.

Welcome, hope you are enjoying the zed

Nice pics there, wouldn't mind a play on those roads. Bet you had fun

man its a hour and 5 mins to the meeting point for me !!!

 

And im out getting drunk the night before lol

Is that all, its going to take me and the lads from the south a good few hours to get up for the run, Any excuse for a road trip

"Senior Citizen" makes a dash to jump the queue to use the emergency phone

Hahahahaha love it.

do people want me to bulk order the super lube and sell out at cost price to save people a few pennies (this is not for profit; i am not trading)

I'd be up for some, sounds good.

A final update and hopefully pass on some good news.

Well my trial with the leaky roof is finally over and my roadster is back.

Said a sad farewell to the 370 this morning. Must admit the first day i had her i was rather disappointed. Where was the noise?, why put an auto in a car like this?, the suspension was really hard as i could feel every bump in the road (major problem for the roads near me). Also the steering felt very light and I was suprised to find she tram lined a lot and i had to keep correcting the direction regularly. First night i really missed the 350.

Then came the drive to wales. Leaving my local roads the suspension wasnt a problem. Taking colins advice i tried again with the paddles. I got used to the Steering and mile after mile i began to fall for the 370. By the end of the welsh weekend i had covered 850 miles and fell in love with the thing and am saving every penny. Would still change the colour, the auto box and add a proper exhaust and it would be pretty much perfect.

Here is a little piccy on our journey

Anways back to the fun with the garage.

After the comments from you guys about other Nissan dealers and the issues with my local Nissan garage i have to say that the Nissan dealer in Tunbridge wells has been faultless.

- They offered to pay for an issue that wasnt covered by the warranty as i had only had it 4 weeks

- They offered to pay for a non nissan garage to fix the problem when the local nissan garage messed up

- They apologised for the local garage and gave me a 370 while mine was fixed and tested to ensure it was waterproof

- A part was late in arriving so they let me keep the 370 for another 4 days and didnt bat an eye lid when i handed it back with 850 miles added (only had 100 when they gave it to me)

- When i said i would be taking it to the welsh run they said take it and enjoy it.

- Throughout all of this they kept me up to date with regular phone calls on progress.

- Best of all my roadster is back, all cleaned and polished and i have just soaked it with the hose and no leakage at all.

The Tunbridge wells garage have been extremely pleasant, knowledgable and have bent over backwards to fix the problem. The 370 was the icing on the cake. Seems they have customer service sorted.

Don't mean this to be a massive plug but thought i would write about my experience to show not all dealers are complete buffoons. If you ever need any work done i can heartily recommend them. They are a GTR specialist so know all about the 350's 370's and of course the zeds and im sure they will look after you as they have done for me.

Overall very very happy.

That last photo of colin in the road looks as if he is just about to kick his heels up like Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins. Must be excited about all those zeds.

What am I letting myself in for

 

Hope I havent got to head up the rear for a second weekend running

Haha - seems like you are getting a reputation for these runs. Its because you have all the right tools to whip out of your trunk. (for which i am grateful)

oh dear...you got me doing it now.

Put me down as a strong possibility, will confirm later in the week. Hope that's ok

Nice one graham, good to have you along. Will be good to see what mods you have added after the welsh trip lol.

Just got back to Guildford at long last and uploaded the photos. Here is a small sample. Bruce is still up in Wales so not had a chance to check his photos out. Hope he managed to get back down Snowdon in the end......

Just to prove i did clean the car before i left for Wales.

I sure will miss her

At the hotel

Ooo the temptation. I hear you had some fun in this one

And a parting photo on the way home... it was fun but not meant to last.

Congratulations on the purchase, lovely looking car there, nice condition.

You will have to come along to some of the meet ups to show it off, there are more and more people joining from our area and its turning into a nice little group.

Welcome to the forum

Oooo. What a nice car that is on the left, now who could that belong to

Welcome

Saw one like that at silverstone recently but it was topless, totally fallen for it. Then out of the crowd a little kid who looked about 12 walked up to it with a gorgeous girl on his arm and got in and drove it off. Lucky bugger.

Lol watch out Dave, when we next meet at the wise old owl I may have to take your bungs out and hide them for that comment.

Sorry to hear the zed has gone but the new year will be around in no time. Meanwhile enjoy your new motor.

Good recommendation there Dave that's where I will be going. His work looks awesome can't wait to see what he can do with my little roadster.

Well thought I would pop to the local nissan garage to get a quote to see what the top end cost would be.

Looks like £600 per corner and that's not including tyres. they are nice wheels but not that nice lol. Will check to see if anywhere on the internet is better value.

Ummm After having the 370 for a week I'm really falling for the gt alloys. Until I can afford the 370 I'm definitely going to look into getting a set for my roadster.

How much do you think a set is going to cost with tyres?
