Hope it's gone to a good home 

The gentleman that bought the car seemed to be a car enthusiast and certainly spoke about taking care of it so it’s gone to a good home thankfully 🙂

I was genuinely so sad to see it being driven away, was upsetting to see someone else driving ‘my’ car 😢😂

Car is now sold (through auto trader for anyone interested). Really sad to see it go, and going to miss this community!

Please lock mods.

If I was after a Z33 roadster, I'd be all over this - what a great summer buy 

Thanks mate 👍🏼

I’ve had a think about how much I’d be willing to accept for the car, and it’s only fair that I’m transparent with my fellow forum members (I guess this may make it more attractive to people who dislike any haggling) - I will accept £5,250 for the car from a forum member.

Happy to have video calls etc or add any videos to show the condition of the car, (the bodywork is in very good condition for the age).

I personally don't think it's over priced,but funds for a lot of people at moment are tight 😔

Yeah that’s true, the markets probably just slow at the minute.

Do we think this is overpriced? I’ve not really hand much contact other than low ballers/dreamers on Facebook!

I would take your mobile number off, vet people via email via gumtree ,you can then filter the w****ers  quite quickly, I've sold a Harley and the Z on Gumtree both to really nice people 

Thank you for the tip, I’ve just removed my number.

you just have to have the Patience! Despite having thousands of views over a 2 month period, the one and only person who asked to view bought the car for the asking price

Thanks for the advice mate.

Got a whole load of “you’ve been in an accident and are owed compensation” type calls after putting  my number on gumtree 😂
 

Only had lowball offers so far, hopefully get some offers closer to asking!

+ 1 for that, I sold mine on Gumtree 

I’ve put it up on Facebook marketplace and auto trader this week, and gumtree just now 🙂

Standard plates have been put back on, the registration is OE06 SEO for anyone wanting to check the mot history.

Bump and price drop - £6,495 ONO!

I usually advertise vehicles on ebay mainly due to cost. It's £20 for a month, I think Autotrader is quite a lot more expensive. 

Also gumtree is completely free so worth sticking it on there. 

Thank you for the suggestions - may put it on gumtree as a first step!

At the moment I have only advertised here, and I’m aware that not many people will see this for sale thread (other than those that likely already have a Zed!).

Where would people recommend advertising a 350z for sale? Is auto trader any good?

Also worth mentioning for any potential buyers, I have the original shocks and springs that can go with the car (less than 70k on these), in case someone wants to put it back to standard. Worth noting that the current suspension set up vastly improved the handling in my opinion!

I also have the original stereo, which can go with the car also. The one I’ve fitted is alpine and has Bluetooth connectivity to play music from your phone (which can also be controlled from the stereo it self in terms of changing the track etc). It also has a microphone and Bluetooth hands free to take calls on it. It can play mp3 cd’s and also had a usb for MP3’s from a usb stick.

I found the audio quality with the aftermarket stereo quite a bit better than standard, and obviously the functionality is much better but will also include the original stereo in case someone wants to put it back to standard. The speakers/amp are the original Bose ones and have not been touched.

That's a stunning 350z Roadster, I got a slightly early one needs a little Tlc which I tend to do in the coming months, but thinking of moving on possible as I could do with more seats, looking to get somthing still exciting just a different car all together that's the plan anyway lol, will miss mine if I do move it on though 🥲 glwts for yours a lot of car for the money looks a lovley car 👍

Thank you mate. Yeah it’s such a lovely car, and in all honesty much more reliable than the bmw I had before it (and that wasn’t as old either!).

Definitely going to miss it immensely. If it was more practical (i.e. had 4 seats and a proper boot so could use it for family duties), I would 100% keep it but unfortunately can’t justify having 2 cars so will have to sell and hope that I can get something similar in the future. Although part of me thinks that post petrol/diesel new car sale ban, these kinds of cars will likely go up in value a lot!

All the best with the sale, looks a lovely example 

Thank you!

Yes and diesels do definitely struggle against a lovely petrol for definite. You've kept your 350 looking so well which is a credit to you for sure. 😍👍

 

I don't get to use my 370 Roadster much to be fair and I haven't used it since early October last year, and that makes me wonder why I've got it to honest. But I've no doubt that if I sold it then I would certainly miss it though. 

 

You can always get back into something more interesting again in the future I reckon bud.🙂

 

 

Definitely, and I’m lucky I had the opportunity to own one for 4+ years!

That looks a lovely example and it seems like a lot of car for the money I reckon. Glwts. 

 

You will miss the V6 roar for sure, however a 6 cylinder diesel can be enjoyable with all the torque though I reckon. 

Thanks mate.

Will likely be a 4 cylinder diesel, so not sure about it being fun 😂 (although I’m

not sure any diesel is fun anyway tbh!). Whatever I get, it certainly won’t hold a candle to a manual v6 with the roof down on a country road!

Although I hardly get the chance to drive outside of traffic nowadays so comfort and being easy to drive is the focus for me on the next car sadly (along with space and practicality, i.e. more seats).

I know what you mean. That's why I am on my 4th 😆😆

They are very good cars, and in my opinion very underrated.

I’m looking at getting a diesel for my next car (sacrilege!). I’m definitely going to miss the beautiful v6 roar and especially when compared to tractor sounds 😥
