  1. Nice car. We sold it last year. 350zs are popular cars so don't be put off by that many owners!
  2. Haven't scanned the multiple posts on this subforum but is anyone looking at or in the process of organising a stand at Jap Show in July? I personally would be up for having my own stand with Tradelink but thought a 350zuk stand woukd be pretty cool. Let me know. (Amy, any thoughts?) Greg.
  3. With the greatest respect cesc you are comparing apples with oranges here... I am trade and you are private. Your car needs and engine soon and has done high mileage therefore you are advertising it to "get rid" with no fuss. My car in question is a low mileage, 2 owner, fsh car that I have bought because I am in the business of selling these particular cars. You haven't just agreed to spend time and money getting the car up to a high standard prepping for sale. I wasn't that "offended" by the offer as I know it want meant to be offensive. It just confused me after what myself and the customer had just discussed.
  4. Doc, please give me a call on 01923260002.
  5. In fact we do have a passable reputation on here and yes you failed to include that you were taking advice from someone you had met once (apparently) and had been chatting to on the forum about my car, this person had never seen. This person also advised you that the car definitely wasn't worth any more than 7500?? They hadn't seen it in the flesh, driven it, looked at the service history. It's an 05 gt coupe done 47k miles with 2 owners from new. As to the tyres, I said, as the tyres weren't yet illegal and would pass an mot, (2 rear tyres a mil over wear bars) if it sealed the deal I would do one of the following:either put a brand new pair of budgets on the back or some decent part worn branded tyres. The boot struts as anyone will tell you on here are a very common wear and tear item and a lot of people live with the problem. I also said that I would find you a pair of functioning struts off a car here or a breaker, to further seal the deal. Everything was pointed out to you. The wheel baring, the crease on the rear quarter panel, the other interior bits refinishing, the car park dents on the passengers door, seats be conolized, p3 service. Mot... maybe you woukd have picked up on half the things maybe all but i pointed them out to you. All of this does not come for free you know and yes £150.00 was the most I wanted to knock off. The only reason I did knock a bit off was because you came down off the forum. Otherwise with that level of preparation and spend I wouldn't have knocked off a penny. You offered me £7200. That's 800 off!! I was a little offended by this but wasn't unpleasant to you I did not feel. You have to remember that we are a business and this is not a private sale. We have margins... To clarify also we do sell a high percentage of our vehicles over the phone. People cannot make it down during the week and can only make it over at weekends so they "secure" the car with a telephone deposit. Like I said on the phone it could easily sell to someone else and be ready by the weekend like it could have been for you. I am able to sell the bigger picture and end product both with customers seeing the original state of the car in the flesh and over the phone and have done many times. I was giving you the opportunity to secure the car because you spent hours here and it would have been time wasted on your part if I allowed someone else to put a deposit down. I'm not a charlatan and my last comment to you regarding the exhaust being replaced with an OEM item and refurbishing the wheels is now the plan of action so the car will be in fully mint original spec and condition. Thus worth the £500.00 more I'm going to readvertise at. Good luck with your vehicle search I wish you well.
  6. Big up RT performance!! True professionals.
  7. I've been looking at Vossen wheels and unlike other aftermarket wheels they do not look cheap. They make some really nice rims... go for it Nino. Then you can sell it to me when you're done!!
  8. A lot of this information is ill informed... and some of it very unfair "Alezen was standard on non-GT pack facelifts" ???? WHAT??? I do not think this is correct!! Non GT cars do not have leather at all!! A lot of the other information contained within this thread is just hear say about this other dealer... How do you know bits and pieces haven't been tidied up on the car? How do you know how much the dealer paid for the car if you sold it to a car buying service? It was probably webuyanycar and they are owned by BCA (british car auctions) who auction off to the highest bidder. In theory the trader could have bought it for £8k and is making £500 profit!! I think some people have a lot to learn and shouldn't stereotype... I had a customer down on a Zed this morning. We have just bought the car in yesterday. Car had a few issues which were all going to be put right before the buyer potentially took the car, ie couple of panels of paint, boot struts need replacing, car badly needs a wheel baring, interior pieces need refinishing on the grab handles, p3 service and MOT... As an honest trader, I pointed these bits out and was more than prepared to get them all sorted. Customer decided not to buy in the end because it was out of his budget. He offered me considerably less than the asking price, (even though all bits were to be sorted and they obvioulsy aren't done for free) We have margins to make so a deal couldn't be struck I appreciate that you may have been looking out for fellow members on here but at the same time I feel you may be a little aggrieved to see your car advertised for more than you sold it for aswell. Main point is, not all car traders have no conscience and people should really get their facts straight before jumping to conclusions!!!
  9. Where is the link to this car... I want to see it... Fairlady wheels? You mean 17s? £9k?? If i was going to ask £9k for a zed on an 04 it would at least need to be mint with 18s on it. There is no way i would ever give £8k for an 04 done 70K either. Steer well clear of this one! better not be a tradelink ad!! Fingers crossed!!
  10. Thanks for that bit of publicity Aliveboy! Japspeed car went in less than a week! We have just had it listed for ages... Sorry if you were misled! Only car we have had for over a month is the Bitch!! Cheers Keyser!! i have to ask did it go stickered up IT DID!!! (but were removed soon after)!! Funny that!

  12. Just called Chris and he was having a bath... Must be that time of year again. Anyway, i'm taking the bitch up to Bedford to crash it into the pit wall so unless anyone wants it, speak now of forever hold your pieces.
  13. Get a specialist to change out the broken baulking ring. You will probably get the job done for 300 quid? 3rd gear ring is the most expensive one at around 170 from Nissan. Every other gear is 60 quid roughly. This will get rid of the crunches into gear.
  14. Tradelink dont sell Zeds for £5.5k yes we do... have a look at this one. http://www.tradelinkcars.co.uk/used-cars/nissan-350-z-railway-terrace-201409187506965 good luck with the search. G
  15. My bad. On the phone and missed it. Sorry!!
  16. And a price? Or have I read it too quick?
  17. Car has been on the forum and we sold it too! Glad it made it to the track!
  18. Awful, boring car. Soooooooo disappointed when we had one (Only driven standard). Bolt a supercharger to a lawnmower and it'll make it more exciting, so can't really use that excuse for it!!??
  19. I didn't think it was cruel... When SJ bought his car he liked it and someone else will too. Facts are facts tho, who would you choose...?? Cameron Diaz or David Cameron? Thought so...
  20. Hello, just thought i'd let you know that its August!!! Most retail outlets find August is the hardest month. On the whole, school holidays and holidays abroad take priority with most people so they are not here. And if they are they are, they are either going on or just got back from an expensive two weeks. Suck it up til September and you may have some luck or wait til March to get what you want for your car, because you will get it eventually. Plus, (I like your car), so not meaning to get personal but you have an Orange JDM manual with cloth seats, 20" wheels and a bodykit. You have to face facts that its not EVERYONES cup of tea. A UK GT car, roughly same age, in blue with no kit with the same miles, priced up for a grand more would have sold within a week. We sell a lot of Zeds of most different ages and from a sellers point of view, i would say, dersireable cars, ie decent colour, (black or blue) with under 60k miles, I am still paying the same prices as last year so I think prices are remaining pretty steady.

  21. Just out of interest, why is YK04dah in so many pictures and who is the James Arthur lookalike?

  23. That's me!!! Lovely car. Was very pleased when Adey rolled back from hull at 1900hrs with a big grin on his face.
