  1. Where was your 370 first registered from new, as it does seem to have some unusual features given your posts to date? I ask that as I have seen and driven quite a few 370's and never come across one without the variable intermittent wiper speed as posted in the vid above. Perhaps some pics of your car, inside and out, might help us to help you. Edit: Kinda of wondering it was first registered in Germany by a UK armed forces person (the tyres) knowing there are differing specs for countries around the world
  2. Can you not count to 5 Adrian Nah, he is more into the Zillions

    lost keys

    You have already made a post and in the correct section, so this new thread is locked http://www.350z-uk.c...1515-lost-keys/
  4. Oh no it doesn't, and you might wish to plan a holiday Will............

    lost keys

    If it a UK supplied ZED you should go to a Nissan dealer with the VIN number/proof of car ownership and hopefully they will have the key details on the database. If it is an import I'm not sure what you can do, other than ask the importer if you know who they were and if they can help you.
  6. Might be worth asking this member - impressed with the wheel photoshopping he did http://www.350z-uk.c...d/#entry1357462 (see post No.1)

    370z 20" wheels

    Tut, tut, not in 370 mode yet but moved it for you
  8. Yeah, he certainly had a train to catch
  9. Quality ad there and seems a bargain too
  10. Just goes to show what a very special place this forum is for such friendships to form to help one another out. Congratulations guys

    Tragic

  12. Dealer back-up is a concern both from what I see on forums and I think it was the Auto Express survey - only one better than Seat right at the bottom! And also seems to be question marks over the DSG but be good to hear from experience on here.
  13. Golf (as an example) is as small as I would want to go and when the size the other way interferes with the driving pleasure. Oh, and I would take a lot of convincing to buy French again given the awful build quality I found on those cars 12+ years back.
  14. I'm a petrolhead - enough said? BMW are doing a £500 for five years servicing including consumables.
  15. Will @ BMW 1 series: Same thing was said about the 370's but I know many, including me, who warmed to its looks and bought one and a few subtle tweaks..... Have looked into the 3 star A series AMG 4matic, but specced up to what I would want takes it well over £40k and from what I hear about servicing/parts costs......
  16. Guys you are coming up with some great cars, but you are missing 3 of my essentials that I put down in my first post.
  17. Best to try both, but one observation I would make is the fact the paddles on the auto are fixed to the column as opposed to the steering wheel is not right in my book, certainly for spirited driving and that's even if you feel the ratios are right on the road...
  18. Many thanks for all the positive comments. Have to say I had several moments of should I pull out from the sale but as I said to Nino, I'm wasn't going to muck him around once I had offered to sell him GUNs and seeing how keen he was to follow up on my offer.
  19. Er....I don't own an oil well and the pension only streches so far New, or possibly up a year old and £30 max would be good (might stretch a bit more for the right car) but happy to see what comes up over the next few months when deals can be had and it ticks the boxes. As I said, 4 seats/5doors and the grin factor are musts
  20. Words fail me And I do trust that his name gets passed to track-day organizers to not let him anywhere near one of their events in the future. And wearing a great thick fleece 'cos he has to have the window fully open to rest his arm - total and utter dickhead.
  21. Well it was Nino's for sale thread that caught my eye and his desire for a 370 in his first post http://www.350z-uk.c...-350z-for-sale/ It appeared when I had decided the time was right to sell so I contacted with Nino to say I was so minded if he was interested and it went from there. I was really pleased when he posted up his thread seaking thoughts on a '59 370 or a later one with connect premium and I purposedly stayed out of that discussion so Nino could see others opinions without my 'influence'. It may seem surprsing to some, but you know what I highly value a sale where the buyer has done his homework and can feel he has made a purchase that is right for them.
  22. Yes, after nearly 5 glorious years I have said goodbye. Without doubt the 370 has been the best car I have ever owned and have had some absolutely fabulous drives and in fact well over half the 28k miles was on Forum related drives/meets etc with the Wales weekends and Scotland trips being the highlights. But for some time I have come to realise that life moves on and with 2 grandchildren and many friends that June & I wish to share more time with 4 seats; 5 doors and some good grunt under the bonnet is a must. Although we own a Mazda2 Sport I really have to replace GUNs with something else that gives me a driving pleasure as well as being practical. So the hunt begins The really good news is that GUNs has gone to a forum member who having met him today I'm absolutely confident he will 'love' GUNs in the same way I have - a great guy to do business with and a credit to this community. So Nino, (aka parello9) enjoy your new ride and make sure you look after GUNS as I will be watching
  23. You could always blame the tyres
  24. Thanks Mike
  25. Think he is pointing us to this one http://www.the370z.c...lack-370-a.html
