Could have got a 370z for £750 more too http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201504132560103/sort/default/usedcars/page/1/quicksearch/true/make/nissan/model/370_z/radius/1500/onesearchad/used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew/price-from/500/postcode/ng116jw/channel/cars?logcode=p

ConnorW06, you should post this in the pinned Junction17 topic at the top of this forum too: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/95950-junction-17-cars-peterborough-a-review-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/ Keep all the feedback centralised.

Clean it james, dont replace it. You want something like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270929878009?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT (you wont use it all in 1 wash, dont worry)

I never debated not getting the major service done I just said I'm in 2 minds about having it done at a specialist or not. I sat for 40mins on the M1 stationary last time thinking I was being smart and cutting out driving though Leicester so its not always the best way

I'm in a similar situation Jamess115. The cars on 33k now and looking through the history has never really had a major service from what I can tell and will be due a service/MOT in Sept. My nearest specialist/trader is also CougarStore but god damn, I proper hate the journey into Leicester! It's like they deliberatey designed it to be as awkward as possible. I asked Tarmac (whos in Derby) If he had a workshop but unfortunately not. So I'm still deciding also.

Always put as much back to standard as possible. Modified cars only appeal to a narrow subset of people so you broaden the market the car will appeal to and therefore increase the chance of a sale. If you can afford to sit around for months waiting for a buyer for a modified car then by all means try it, but I certainly wouldnt recommend it.

Hi guys sorry to hijack this. My symptoms for my drivers window is that it still functions (raises and lowers via the switch) but the auto pinch feature when you open and close the door doesnt. The window instead of dropping 1cm drops about 1/3 of the way down instead and stays there. I can force this by holding the up switch for about 30sec and it stops at the top eventually. Is this also the motor responsible?

If headlight washers are present then they must function to pass an MOT. If there are no headlight washers present to be tested, they cannot fail. They dont record which cars should/shouldnt have them

Right.... so we have to rely on the incompetence of both the DVLA and RoyalMail to hope we are notified... Am i the only one who thinks this is insane!? Why cant Nissan just publish a ****ing list of whats affected and we can check for ourselves?

You're looking at about £1k each for the seat alone if you shop around, otherwise about £800 used off ebay (they look like "Recaro Sportster CS"). http://www.demon-twe...ortster-cs-seat You would then also have to get rails and mounts fabricated etc. Either way, it wont be cheap!

Is there some kind of online lookup we can check to see if we are affected or not? Just for peace of mind really.

I had a HEL line fail on my last car, I was breaking to slow down from a NSL to a 30mph village and it failed after circa 300 miles of being fitted. The hose popped off the nozel which was still fastened to the calliper and emptied all my new Motul RBF600 inside the wheel. HEL just asked to see a photo then sent me a replacement set with a cap.... This was summer last year.

I dont really care much for UKIP as a party but I think its pretty damning when they are our 3rd largest based on votes (circa 3.8million at the time of writing this) yet the SNP has only 1.4million (5th biggest party) yet has 56x the amount of seats!? The proportions of representation to votes just doesnt add up regardless of what spin you put on it.

If you are happy with the car just buy it and worry about those things later, you have until Jan 2016 to enjoy the car. I would never fix something just becaue 1 MOT says so, they may just be trying to trick people into spending money afterall

I've used ST Autobodies in Long Eaton before, Scott is your typical one man operation on an industrial estate unit but hes very genuine and Id happily use him again if the need arises. www.st-autobodies.co.uk/contact-us/ No idea on a price for a 350z though, just pop around with the car and ask him to come out and have a look.

With petrol prices at an all time low if you cant afford to run the 350z as a daily now you never will. Make the most of it!

Good luck with figuring this out. If it fails theres always the Ebay route which is known to work: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321067673609?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Why spend all that money on a bodykit/paint and then not look after it by going to a Tesco? car wash where some E.European will scrub it down with a sponge/bucket full of grit. You might as well just set fire to £5 for the amount of good its doing!

Well I was not expecting this topic to turn out like this when I contributed above, but to be fair my comment was aimed at the Nottingham branch so I technically fall into the "not a Peterborough" customer category but rather a Junction17 customer. To give the "Customer Care Team" the benefit of the doubt I also did not submit a complaint regarding my experience posted above as it was my opinion/persception on the sale process overall and their manner/handling of me as a customer rather than a particular unresolved issue that needed attention and would benefit from a complaint.

In an ideal world sure, but not everyone is in the situation where they dont have a Part-Ex and have cash burning a hole in their pocket. Warranty had nothing to do with it (for me at least). Id just like to contribute that Junction17 Nottingham were no better with me either. Copy/paste from when i posted this previously: I purchased a 350z from them in November (Nottingham branch) and was initially impressed! I wanted my friend to have the test drive on my behalf as he owns a 350z and knows what to look for whereas I have no idea whats normal and whats not, but the salesman (Ian?) ended up chucking us the keys and letting us go off on our own test drive, result! Deposit left. However things turned for the worse when it came to the weekend collection and meeting their manager (Lee?) and I had to sit through 20mins of him and his colleague chipping in trying to force their warranty upon me. They convientently had already applied for the finance with warranty included and would now have to "re-do the lot without warranty etc" despite me telling their receptionist when she phoned this was not wanted. When this didnt work they tried bribing me with free services to take it, then switched to stressing it was only an extra "£30pcm" repeatedly etc. Very patronising and awkward! I then went to leave only to find the car had both key batteries flat, and a bodged drivers door window motor (pinch doesnt work, its dieing).. So yeah my experience with them could be better I suppose as the initial impression was very positive but there wasn't much choice within a 50 mile radius.

Thanks, can I ask is it normal for it to hang this low? Does that not cause any clearence issues? Thanks for that. Does that mean Torqen resell stock from yourself or are there other EU distributors? The wording doesnt make it very clear sorry.

Bumping this thread. Noticed Torqen supplies are there any other reviews/owners other than Zedd above?

Sorry if im asking something obvious but what brand/make is that gearknob?

I saw the link and thought "hmm why pay £200 for a 2nd hand system when you can buy a brand new one for $237.99" but then i changed the shipping address to United Kingdom and it added $380.78 postage.....

Random question JakeeyB. The new bumper doesnt have headlight washers from the looks of it, what did you do with them? Remove, Unplug etc?
