Afternoon, A good friend of mine is looking for a nice 370Z auto, coupe or roadster but must be auto. Mileage isn’t of great concern as long as well maintained abs documented history available. A stock car is preferred and budget of around £13k with flexibility. Based in Somerset and looking for a car in next fortnight. Cheers Si

Car looks lovely! Thanks for the tip, will be sure to have a good look at it. So is that attached to the good then, does it look replaceable? Seals have cracked I would imagine due to weathering, the combination of sun/rain/atmospheric bits all eat away at the rubber which becomes brittle. I used some great stuff on my Honda rubber seals, used to do it twice and year and kept them like new - https://h-tune.co.uk/genuine-honda-shin-etsu-silicone-grease/?currency=GBP&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI4obywMuR4QIVjZztCh1vkQRfEAQYASABEgKlgPD_BwE Did you set out to buy a roadster? Did you look at many, interesting to hear your buying journey/experience? I would settle for a coupe but having owned an S2000, VX220 and E46 M3 conv; I enjoyed the extra dimension of roof down motoring they all gave so think I need to hang out for a roadster. Si

It’s really interesting to read through everyone’s contributions so thank you all. Particular thanks to The G Man; that was a super informative and enjoyable read sir, only spurred me on with my desire to purchase one. I did have a little wander and budget creep looking at some other options but when it comes down to it I think the 370 just offers SO much for relatively little outlay. No joy selling my Merc yet but watching the 370 market eagerly and have a few ads saved ready for when I can pull the trigger!!!!! Si

Thanks Sim that’s good to know, trying to weigh up whether I go manual or auto?? I set out very much wanting a manual because I think it suits the whole analogue nature of the car. I have watched a few YT vids lately (mostly from the states) and they have tended to be autos and it looks to be a fairly sharp box! si
