  1. Air compressor? THat's a new one, its a Roadster, so will it be in the same place and easy to identify?
  2. Hi nissanman, think you've already seen it in anther post, just go to the cc4cars website or autotrader, the only grey Roadster in Preston...
  3. Corrosion on a 2011 27k miler? :-/ don't think they'll have a ramp, where's the W brace?
  4. Hi all So Saturday is the day I go check it over, test drive and pay the hard earned on http://www.cc4cars.c...sed-cars/NISSAN Spoke to a couple of you via threads or mail, need a checklist of things to check on the day, any help compiliing further appreciated. So far, check the following; - Roof function and alignment opening / closing - Bonnet alignment and ensuring doesnt catch the A pillars - Window seals wear at the top back corner ( I assume these are the seals on the hood ) - Seat bolster wear (beyond what you may expect for a low miler) - Wheel condition - Brake disc wear and condition (pads if can see) - Tyre condition and wear - No warning lights on dash - Oil temp after running to use temperature (what should it be?) - Drives straight - Brakes straight and no juddering - Overall condition of bodywork and paint Car was dealer serviced about 750 miles ago and has a new MOT so should generally be ok. It's only being offered with a 3 mth RAC warranty however. Any other things to look out for? Cheers Vin
  5. Thanks for all the responses, off to collect on Saturday, so long as it is as it has been described to me over the phone. Will post back on how it all goes...
  6. Looks good, I think even from the pictures with the dark shading, it you can see the spaces at play, the big area / gap seems to be a lot less with the wheels below the arches not inset, I really prefer that look. Where'd you get the spacers?
  7. Maybe just try going to the cc4cars website or check it out on Autotrader, 2011 27k Roadster £16950
  8. Try http://www.cc4cars.com/detail/174114/used-nissan-370z-3-7-v6-gt-sat-nav-low-miles-preston
  9. Thanks for the response and feedback. I just want to be sure Im paying about the right price and the car is up together, will be happy then, well once a new exhaust is on ;-)
  10. Hi all Took the plunge... Yet to see the car due to distance, but put the holding deposit on http://www.cc4cars.com/detail/174114/used-nissan-370z-3-7-v6-gt-sat-nav-low-miles-preston Anyone know of this specific car, previous owner/s, any issues? Cheers Vin
  11. What exhaust opens up the sound and volume? I was already considering that as an upgrade, along with some 20" judd type allows and lowering it ~1"... thoughts?
  12. Sounds good! THink I will go for it if this oil prob is not an issue on a 2011 car...
  13. Hi Nissanman Thanks for the quick response there! Ok, anyway of finding out if that was def the case on all 2011's? It's a 11 plate, so early 2011... Also, if I went for it, what are they like to drive and own as a car? It would be used 1-2 times per week as I train to work, but weekend 100mile round trip and the odd mid-week run too. I do need reliable ;-) but fun
  14. Hi all New to the forum and just discovered this thread - I was / am on the cusp of a 370z, 2011, 29k miles, manual - This sort of thread would put me off buying as really don't want a car with what sounds to be like an almost guranteed failure and costly rebuild, nor one where the first thing I have to do is this job... so does this affect 2011 models onwards please? I was put off Cayman Gen 1's due to bore scoring affecting most higher mile cars (inevitably) and even lower mile driven hard previously cars. So the 370z was an alternative, now reading this... :-/ Cheers Vin
