If the scratches happened on the boat from Japan how come Bonsai didn't sort them for you? Sounds like another story to go in the Bonsai scrapbook.

Here he is, the watch man!!! Ad was pulled when he added that it was not a real Panerai. Always on the look out for a watch The man with two wrists and twenty watches

Hi and welcome aboard! Why the name? I initially though you were affiliated to the magazine.

Hi and welcome! Megane and Zed are chalk and cheese. Starting with the blindingly obvious, the Zed is a sleek coupe which attracts attention (mainly good, some bad) wherever it goes. It has no back seats and luggage space compromised by both its shape and the hefty strut brace in the back. It has a torquey, big, thirsty V6 which sounds fantatstic and rear wheel drive to give you all the sideways action you need. Its a proper old school sports car - perhaps a bit lardy but loads of fun. Megane is a hot hatch. Only those in the know will look at it twice. Pretty standard engine pushing through the front wheels. Very practical, no doubt very easy to live with and clearly one of the best, if not the best, hatch out there. But its not a sports car and its no Zed. I suppose you'd expect a slightly biased answer on a Zed forum...

Veilside Version 1 - in stock (urethane) for 02-05 models Adam why you change the look, i loved the setup of how you use to have it, had it as my screen saver for ages The car looks much better now IMHO here's a rolling shot from a few weeks ago Nice! Any more?

Blimey, I wasn't after your bank statements! You never know, the belgian tax office may monitor this site?

Quite mysterious these zorsts. TTconvert bought one and then quickly tried to sell it as it was too loud for him. It looks incredibly similar to the one that ESR sell as the K1 but whilst you may pay more with ESR you know you will have some come-back if there are any problems.

The clue is in the description. If you don't want to read for sale posts don't click on them...

What next, mate?

Good to have you with us - welcome!

Lucky lad!

Hi and welcome, Nick! Sounds like a good 'un for those South Central folk.

Contract hire mine not personal contract purchase.

This was my primary reason for buying mine with contract finance, I worked out the depreciation over the last few years and the deal I got matched that history. I give the car back to Nissan in 3 years (assuming I keep this one...see my other posts!!) Thus not having to sell it or face larger depreciation. I did the same over 18 months and my calculations were before the market nose-dived so makes better sense now. Only problem is I no longer really use the car but can't get rid for another 10 months without getting stung.

Search, young jedi, its all there.

That's the ridiculous thing about it!

Happy Birthday, Mark - y'auld git!

Hi and welcome!

When you are paying top dollar for a new car who wants a recon part on it? Plus, judging by the experience the majority here in the UK have with the Nissan dealer network, I wouldn't trust most of them to undertake any major work on a Zed. Marshalls may be different but most of them are used to working on Micras and not doing such a great job of that. A new car should be perfect - that is what you pay for. A repaired car is not a new car in my book, however well repaired it is.

I hear you... really I do... I am not sure what to do... If the gearbox is replaced with a new one then the job is done no? The chances of it having the same problem are minimal, and the rest of the car seems fine. ( at this point) The car is on contract hire finance so will go back to Nissan in three years. Why the big call to reject the car? If it was the engine or electronics then I can see the point but a gearbox swap for new is no big deal?? I really do not want to have to deal with all of this and I just wanted sorted. If I reject the car, I have to wait another few weeks for another one and who's to say that one will be any better, maybe not the gearbox maybe something else. More hastle more time wasted. I will not except a repaired box thats for sure but a new one will do for me... A few days wait rather than a few weeks. I would imagine that Nissan will want to compensate me in some way for the inconvenience. Just as I was about to put a deposit down on a GTR and wait.... the prospect of owning another Nissan right now is not appealing. Like the GF says... I bet you wish you bought that BMW or Audi now!! How will you know that the new 'box is really new and not a recon?
