Maybe take out a year and just swap it to another car in the winter for 6 months ,you will build up your ncb this way i guess

It's the 100k barrier where the car falls apart!
Very cheap but I imagine it would be a mission to sell on.
So true
Could be a cheap laugh or 2nd car for someone but wouldn't want to sell it on 2/3 years down the line with a extra 20/30k miles

is 90% of the time if not all the time Red ones are JDM imports ?

i have thought about octane boosters / petrol additives but people seem to have mixed feelings about those too!Welcome.
I've always used Shell VPower or Tesco Momentum 99, nothing else. Plenty of threads on why 95 ron is not a good idea on here but appreciate your position. Invest in octane booster

Hi Tom. Welcome to the forum. Re the fuel I use a mixture of either the normal supermarket super unleaded or sometimes the nicer stuff for other petrol stations.
I'm from newport but over Cwmbran all the time. In fact there at the mo
Let me know if you wanted to check your height in the zed although I don't think it would be a problem.
Bound to bump into each other eventually i drive to newport (Celtic manor way) everyday for work! Nice to know the z wont blow up on supermarket fuel then haha, and its the 1.6 but i had been driving a year when i bought it so insurance was a big part of that.

ive never seen super unleaded just the budget stuffHi welcome. I am also a newbie, from Caerphilly, picking up my zed today.Regarding Morrison's petrol, do they do super unleaded ? I havent seen it in any of my locals?

Ah cwmbran, normally the starting point of our little welsh drives.
Did see some photos on here recently with familiar backgrounds!

Welcome to the forum, where in South Wales are you, I'm from Blackwood myself.
Cwmbran!

Hey!
Some of you may seen me post on some threads but i felt now was a good time to say hello properly.
Ive been saving for a sports car since the begin of the year and hopefully should have a 350z between now and december
But i have two little questions
Do any of you taller people have any comfort/visual issues in the Z ? im 6.3 myself
And also The myth about supermarket fuel ,sadly i will be running my Z 70% of the time on it as i get Morrisons vouchers through work as bonus for overtime i tend to get about £60 a month and with petrol prices you cant turn away free fuel.
Ive noticed alot of people from the south wales area posting or looking for Zs on here, if theres any local meets i would love to come and look at some of your cars! if you see me about give me a wave this is what I'm driving at the moment !

Always see one parked on a road just before you get to caerleon !
-
all on risk ,think how many people put that its kept on a drive or "garage" vs streetI just got mine renewed with elephant for £389 fully comp with breakdown cover....Commuting and regular long stay car parking at airport....never got offered a cuddly elephant ......Mods listed.... Plenum spacer....K&N ..... HFC's ..... Invidia Exhaust.....Aftermarket rims....... Wheel Spacers.....Wider Wheels and Tyres......Chassis braces front...centre and rear....front and rear cameras.....coilovers.....uprated brakes....uprated front and rear arms....
Never mentioned the minions though..........
Pretty happy with that....... Couldnt understand why it was 43 pound cheaper parking on my street rather than driveway or garage.....especially as if its parked on my street, mine is the only house there......mmmmmmmm
-
Mine came yesterday and all fairness to waxybox they did say i would get it 1-4 oct
Now just have to wait for a dry day in Wales to use some of it ....
-
Still havent had mine ,then again i did cheap out and go 2nd class !
-
will there be more money in the house for you to spend on the Zed if she gets one ?
-
Ive been saving up for a new car for the past year and my big two is 350z or DC5 (considered s2000 similar running costs to a teg)
but the hondas are twice if not more on insurance than a Z
Ive been sad enough to do the math and if your runing 10K or less a year the 350z will be cheaper or if not the same
(but then again this is on my insurance prices not yours)
i think you should have the car you love the most as it will hurt the lest to spend the money on. You wont save alot going to honda unless you do lots of miles i guess.
-
I would buy one if i could insure it ! Looks great !
-
No where near me haha! how much aprox would postage be ?
-
Where you live sorry ?
-
Everyone with a caravan has a 4x4 even though there still no need,seriously go to a camp site and your the odd one out without a 4x4!
