92' Sunny before my 350z

 

Lovely car! (The one on the left of course!

More importantly am I still winning the race for "coming from the shittiest car possible to the 370Z"

Not cheap on petrol. I could get a TT but the numerous issues and the less soulful drive is not really appealing. Also they are so common.

 

The car can get 23-28 mpg avg over time on extra urban roads if youre driving around the city it will drop to 18mpg if you floor it 16.8 mpg just like the GTR.

 

I used to take mine for drive on motorway to get premium fuel across town almost every week. Makes a difference to the mpgs.

 

Some weeks were £30 on fuel other weeks when I put my foot down £50-£60.

 

I once went for a drive on sunny saturday. Windsor, farnham, hounslow, denham, central london. I covered 50 miles hard driving within the law. Kept an eye on temperature. I used £20 which is 4 gallons . On a car like this its not bad when you think how much smaller engines with turbos would use.

 

You wana ride a rollercoaster you got to pay up or you can always get a small hybrid coupe like I did with no power and a £1000 battery . Oh and kids love the 370. So its worth it!

Thanks for this detail!

I've been having a love hate with the car and it's all about the petrol.

I'm 51 years old this year and it feels like I've a 25 year old girlfriend hanging on my arm....everyone's giving me looks, it's great fun to drive (ride?) but boy she's expensive

However the love is growing. Spent 3 hours yesterday polishing and cleaning.....then went to the shops to get nothing in particular just so I could tool around in her

And yes you're right - wife and I now play "spot the TT"...…. so common.

Great fun to drive, gets a lot of looks from passers by, but in hindsight wish I'd gone for the Audi TT - at least it gives you double the mpg!

TBH think I'll keep it for 6 months then sell it

So my 370z is 2011, and the price of an upgrade CD is 145 sterling.

I don't want or need Europe....just Northern Ireland will do.

Is this a complete waste of money? I'm getting annoyed driving into areas where the map is completely wrong but the price seems like daylight robbery.

Thanks

Has anyone tried one of these :

Do they work well? Well enough to "slightly go over the speed limit when it's safe to do so?"

Came from a 950 cc Hyundai Getz to the 370z.

To say I'm pleased but broke would be an understatement

Hi there!

Going through a mid life crises and went last week from a 950cc Hyundai Getz to a 370z.

Costing me a fortune, but my face is sore from smiling

Great to be here!
