.....well I was having lunch at post #30

Saw this thread and thought Stephen Hawking had joined the forum.......

However as I'm changing car (to red) I have had to forgo my blue velvet and invest in some banana armour.

Thought they said it was red

There isn't a "dislike" button 👹

They have a black demonstrator at JFE, but it is in Torquay at the moment.

Stay away from the red one that will be there from the 11th.......

Coded message for Rob - "If it's red it will be slow. If it's still black it won't".

BBC news video of large waves crashing over the sea wall today in the South West.

Yes it is a Lexus in the foreground..... but look at the top of the picture towards the end of the short clip up against the sea wall......

A White JDM 350z.......

I wasn't allowed to go because I got vetoed by the wife who invited her relatives around, well they invited themselves......

Found this on the interweb thingy :-

Police are at my house at the moment digging up my patio because my wife has disappeared........... 👹

Last year Rob led from the front, with his top down, in the rain showers............ ☔ï¸

A388 St Mellion. Gobsmacked to see another Zed down here, it looked 'ansome.

Piccy of them fitted in a Zed, from the web.

From that video the speed of his vehicle can be calculated.

If the location is known. Simply measure the distance between two points off the film (DISTANCE) - say the telegraph poles for instance. The video footage gives you the elapsed time between these two points (TIME)...... and there you have it :- (SPEED)

Speed kills then?

Speed does not kill you, it's the sudden deceleration that gets ya!

 

I think the last time I checked there were only about 160 Nismos registered (both variants) which suggests you'd need a microscope to spot the number of these they'd sell.

And how many of these are 1) white? 2) ex demonstrators?

As long as I don't have to exceed 4000rpm........

My other half is away this weekend in London Village. When the cats away, the mice can play!

Did the Nismo engineer at JFE Exeter have much technical information on it when you spoke to him?

He just said he had seen the specs and images that Nissan had released through the network.

 

Mine will be ordered in red...

Was mine there yet????? - the one with a roof!!! :lol:

It's not goung to be sold in the States either. I spoke to a dealer over there when asking about the spare wheel in a Nismo.

Will is right if you look at the Nissan sales figures for 2014 they sold 6 roadsters. In 2013 they sold 7.........

Total 350Z's left on the roads as of this year = 7008

Total 370Z's left on the roads as of this year =1892 (and rising)

Bear in mind both models have been on sale for about seven years each, and even taking into consideration JDM's - sales figures for the 370Z are not as good as the 350Z.

Using the 'how many left' website.

It's probably "spyware".

Oh, hang on a minute, there's someone knocking on my door.........

If you have a 'black box' fitted to a Zed and you sneeze whilst driving along, it will cost you hundreds........

Nice piece of kit when it comes to the insurance company having any excuse to not pay you out because you were doing 31mph in a 30mph limit.

My god man! Doesn't anyone think ahead!!!

Im contemplating selling mine to get a 370z. Mine is a 313GT HR in black 58 reg manual with black leather. Sat nav heated seats etc etc. its only done 9'500 miles .. Totally standard unmodded. Not sure if the 370 is a much better car though

Never kept a car for more than five years, so six and a half is a record for me. The Nismo is a little bit different though.....

Late model 313HR's with low mileage are fetching top dollar at the moment. Ours is about to go to a dealer in part ex., and an 09 plate black GT with SatNav, FNSH and 13k on the clock (absolutely stock OEM -see Wales 2015 winner) fetched £13,000. Sorry it had orange seats.......

Who knows what price tag it will have on at the dealers, but I suspect it is going to a member of staff.

It is a case of "The Zed is dead, long live the Zed" - I'm moving along to a 370.👹

Due to distance, will be staying local the night before.

Greg is one of the traders on this forum, he is based in Kings Langley, near Watford.

I've usually got a Claas Arion right up behind me........
