Hi
I will soon be in the market for a zed (once I have sold my fn2) and so have been keeping an eye on autotrader, pistonheads, classifieds on here and ebay to get an idea of prices.
Ideally I want a black, blue or bronze gt 2005 or earlier, dont mind buying private and was hoping to get one for around 6k. I dont mind the mileage being a little high (80k) as it will only be used for 4 miles a week and then whenever I fancy a blast.
Do you think I will get one for this price? Seen them go for as little as 5k and as much as 9.5k for very similar cars.
I have seen this black gt4 on ebay
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/nissan-350z-gran-turismo-4-/111000835294?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item19d82a54de
and its pretty much my ideal car, favourite colour, the more powerful engine but with lower tax and that little bit rarer so it might hold its value. However one of the main things that makes this a special edition is the wheels which have gone and also the price seems astronomical to me what do you people think of it?
Some other questions I have
* Is the gt4 the only way to get the revup engine without the higher tax?
* Should the service history run p1, p2, p3, p1, p2 etc as a lot seem to be all p1 with the occasional p3
* How can I best tell if the clutch is slipping on a test drive?
* How do tall people find the zed? I'm 6'4 and didnt even fit in an s2000, boxster but the nissan seemed ok
Hopefully you lot wont mind me posting cars for your approval over the next couple of months till I find 'the one'
Cheers
Craig
