  1. I loved this car. But it definitely had some issues, and unfortunately I ran out of time, patience and money before it was finished. I was young and naive, and it spent most of the time off the road waiting for the next paycheck . It made an epic sound though! Eventually I just had to sell it. Needed new headlight's desperately, and looks like it still does. Maybe something to think about. I'm glad it eventually got to the level I wanted it at though.

     

    I'm a zed owner again as of last week. I've bought less of a project this time!

  2. I've had a mid-twenties crisis and decided that I want to galavant around the world before getting grounded. A last hurrah of sorts. Unfortunately this means the Z has to go. This has been a difficult decision for me. I dreamt of owning this car for many years and I had planned to keep it for a long time. I've tried every way to keep the zed (Overtime D:) but I just cant make the numbers work.

     

    I've met some great people through this forum and it has been an invaluable source of information for me :)

     

    I've owned this car for over a year - and its been my daily driver everyday. Its been bloody brilliant!

    (Front bumper, sideskirts, rear bumper, and rear boot resprayed within last 1000 miles)

    Apline Sat Nav in Cubby

     

     

    Additional Extras - Aluminium Kick Plates, 14N 'Z' Boot Tonneau Cover, Various Painted Engine Parts polished bolts etc

     

     

    When I first had the car I had a major service. New spark plugs (1 step colder), New supercharger belts, All Filters, Quality Oil Change etc.

     

    Car has part service history. Its always been cared for by its owners and I was happy with that.

    I have maintained the car myself (apart from the fore mentioned big service which I

    had done at a trusted garage.)

     

    The car has a few small issues which I never got round to correcting. The Air-bag light is on. I did have it fixed, but its recently come back again. Also, I removed the nismo v2 spoiler as I didn't like it. I had the holes filled and the boot lid repainted. However I have yet to source a standard spoiler.

     

    I need this car gone. Otherwise I'll end up keeping it and going to America on my credit card which wont end well. Standard the car would probably fetch me 6k. Considering all the mods (Wheels, BBK, Supercharger), the spec of the car etc.

     

    8500 O.N.O

     

    I know the car could be broke for alot more than this. Bit I just dont have the time.
