Two obvious options it appears in my budget and search area, both in Slightly Disappointing Silver, but you can't have everything... Lower miles with no GT http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201212114583853 or GT http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201301124896816 I thnk I'd rather give up the leather seats than the 12,000 miles, but opinions are very much welcome.

Thanks all for the positive comments, a nice change from the usual internet noise - no one has even abused me (yet)! I'll read the link posted and go from there, as well as check out the For Sale. Just to clarify....I wouldn't say I had 8k "going spare" AK! For that I was hoping to purchase, tax and insure. Speaking of insurance, can any one recommend a specialist provider? I've not owned a car for a few years and my NCD has evaporated, so I'm going to have to take a hit on the next policy - technically this my first car! Last but not least, and at the risk of using up all my noob stupid questions budget on Day 1, is it worth holding out for a Zed with the GT pack, over the standard? Thanks again all.

Hi, I was a whisker away from buying an RX-8 and a friend switched me on to the 350Z. I'm now all worked up into a lather about buying one (budget 8k) and spied the bargains to be had buying JDM imports. Before I hand over my cash is there anything terrifyingly different about imports I should worry about? I've read bits and pieces about the brakes, autos, 17" wheels and the different rear bumper (which I think I prefer). Will it collapse into a pile of rust in a coastal northern UK town? Should I just stump up the extra for UK model? Any advice/warnings would be hugely appreciated? Ta. Stu
