  1. its all luck of the draw really as to how the copper feels. My mate has driven around for the last 10 years with no front number plate and a mis-spaced rear numberplate on his car and has never been pulled once.

     

    As a biker ive always had undersized and mis spaced plates on my bikes, and only got pulled once. But in all fairness I was taking the mick that day as the plate I had on was litterally 1inch x 4 inches in size....

     

    Also, good luck at the auction... i waited years for a plate I wanted to come up once and it ended up making about 20k!!!

  2. I was puzzled by the same thing, i assumed the z350 313 model was 313bhp, but its not, apparently its only 309bhp. And just because the car is 2007 onwards doenst mean its automatically the 313 model. Some had the older engine in. I saw a 57 plate one which was not the 313. One easy way to tell is that the bonnet has a big bulge in it if its the 313 model.

  3. Hi,

     

    Thought id say hello to everyone as im sure i`ll be on here a lot having just bought a 07 plate z350 roadster. Its in grey with the orange leather interior. Has the GT pack, Rays wheels and satnav. Seems to have low mileage for the year at 23k miles, but apparently it used to be one of the press cars Nissan used to send out to people to review.... I found this out from checking the history and found out the first number plate was L**UST, which Nissan appear to put on their press cars, I also found out Nissan was its first owner for the first year.

     

    Anyway, it was a good price, has full history and comes with 12 months Nissan warrenty - so if it breaks its going straight back! I pick it up Saturday.

     

    Looking forward to learning more about the cars and meeting some of you. Im already reading as much as I can on the forums as none of my cars remains standard for long, so i`ll be modding it and tweaking it over the next few months I expect!

     

    Cheers

    Jack.

  4. tough one really. From looking at cars myself, id be tempted to take the money. You could hold on and maybe be lucky and get more, but in my experience it never comes and you end up having to sell for a lot less than you were originally offered months down the line. Thats happened twice with me now on cars and I wished id taken the first offer.

  5. Best of luck. Also discontinued. :byebye:

    I had a similar thing to this on one of my motorbikes - i hit into a curb and it bent the front wheel just like this. I took it to a local place and they heated the alloy up and bent it back.... did a pefect job of it and 20,000 miles later still no problems.

     

    With the OP`s cracked alloy, I think the only choice if you cant get a replacement is to get a whole new set - then keep an eye out on ebay to see if anyone ever sells a single alloy the same as the old one!
