Massive thanks for all the replies and messages, i really appreciate the time taken by people to help. Once i have sold the 7 i'm sure i will have more questions. Thanks again Regards Bob

Thanks Colin, yes i've worked out now the car has to be 06 plate or earlier,the tax saving is'nt the be all and end all to me ... it's more of a my money and the Gov not getting it.

And if the windows don't work make sure you check to see if the window lock switch is off before pulling the door cards off and ordering spare parts As the guys said lots of threads on this...for me top 3 pros = cheap entry to genuine V6 GT car territory, well built car and engine, great styling for what is now a 10 year+ car. 3 cons = lardy and not as chuckable as you might be used to, not much scope for tuning and what you can do is pretty expensive for what you get back and it has a daft boot i'm 54 this year and sometimes hard cornering hurts. I really would like it standard and just turn the key (must be getting old) Wait 'till you get to my age......I can just about get out the seat at times!! 350Zedd that is the reason the 7 has to go, i've even made a quick release boss for the steering to aid my entry/exit

I really would like it standard and just turn the key (must be getting old)

Big thanks for that, buyers guide makes good reading.

Big thanks for the welcomes and replies. So i guess without anything in particular to look out for i will concentrate on service history and general condition. Are any tyres wheels a preference ?, costs if possible. I'm fortunate to have a good relationship with my local Nissan dealership as we run two small Nissans and i do know one of the salesmen runs a 350z, he advised to look for service history which is kind of nailed on anyway.

lol thanks mate, i think i understand the Zeditus i've had a bad case of upgaditus on my current garage bitch for the last 10 years.

Looking to sell my self built MK Indy (Loosely based on a Caterham) and going for a more yearly usable car. Z's have always been a favourite of mine so the big question is ..... the good and if any bad points regarding ownership. Being as the only Z i have driven in the past was a 240 back in the very early 80's i understand this will be different to say the least, i do need to have a drive of a 350 to make sure it is actually what i want. So .... what to look out for would be a great help. I will be looking for a 2006 and before model for the obvious tax break as the drive will be a 2nd car.i do not see the point of paying £400 plus for road fund when the car will be in the garage for most of the week. Thanks in anticipation Bob
