Ok, as I explained in my wee (yeah I'm Scottish... lol) welcoming thing on the intro threads, I'm looking to get a silver 350Z GT. I'll be ready to go around mid-march just after the snow has left my god forsaken town lol. This is a long winded one so bare with me

On March i'll be 25, i've been roughly simulating this with insurance quotes, by bringing my age year back to make me 25 to get rough ideas.

So.... I'm 25 in March, 3 and half yrs driving (i spent most of my time drunk as a student lol), 0 NCB (due to an idiot at a roundabout and insurance that cant decide who hit who...despite me being in the left lane! ) and 3points for SP30 speeding.

The cheapest quotes being generated are Admiral so far... £2400 (thats by putting the excess to £750... horrific I know but keep with me, I'm buying one of these cars regardless lol). i've seen a few younger people getting not bad quotes on here, so anyone recommend?

I see theres two insurance companies on here also... any way of giving a rough quote if i give details (obviously bring back my age to make it 25)? Thing is I renew my 2006 2.0 Hyundai Coupe in november, I'm leaving...cos' their horrific, but the thing is, I want it to be decent so that when I change to a 350Z it isn't a horrid amount more. to give you an idea... I've been getting £1400 for the coupe with Admiral, when I'm 25 Admiral will do the Z for £2400. Annoyingly if I hadn't got banged into or caught speeding it'd be......wait...1400 (and to give you an idea...this is cheap for me lol). Anything under £2000 in total... eg... 1400 coupe then whatever plus to change it to the Z is good for me. ... help? lol

Thanks much

Hey people, new...obviously...and looking to buy into the wonderful world of the 350! To get started, I've currently got a 2006 Silver Hyundai Coupe 2.0SE, I love it to bits, its cheap (except when you go to repair stuff as with all "affordable sports cars" lol), it has lots of kit and looks great, but around mid-march I'll be wanting to change. Few reasons for this, i'll be 25 lol, the snow will have buggered off and my m8 works (and hopefully still will) at Nissan.

First things first, I bought the coupe because I like sports cars, supercars, something that was made for the purpose from the ground up, not a 3series with 2 less doors or a hot hatch, not a fan....no. I like being low, wide and purposeful, no matter how much of a **** you sometimes may look, so the 350Z... I adore. I have test driven one, loved it, found it surprisingly easy to drive despite near 300bhp (not driven one in the rain mind you lol) and it has lots of kit. Ideally I'll be after a silver GT.

Read over the "buyers guide" which I found very useful, and I'll have many questions i'm sure over the next little while and hoping to gain on some of your experiences...as this is a big buy for me. Insurance is.... DEAR... very DEAR, but im' willing to put the money buy and pay it. Its annoying, the cars I look it are either too dear to buy and ok to insure or cheap and dear to insure.... lol This doen't help matter when I have 3 points for speeding (no biggie) but then some idiot who does not know how to go round lanes in a roundabout is causing me to loose my NCB because there saying its not their fault and the insurance company are crap (ECAR...never use, i will be changing lol). It would have been £1400.... dear but for me...acceptable...it will be however £2400... mad? Possibly... but I think its worth it lol. Anyway... hi...more questions soon lol
