Jay is buying them from the person who bought those wheels that were listed on here for £1,650

If the person could prove to me that they were the actual person named on the V5 (via passport) and that they could prove that the address on the V5 was actually their previous address, I wouldn't care and certainly wouldn't not buy the car because of it.

But a bigger engine and it'd be ok.... 335d. It just depends on what constitutes 'ok' for you. If you mean 'ok' as in a great car, that is pretty quick, economic and can fit a family in then yes. If you mean 'ok' as in a potentially better proposition than the petrol equivalent, then nope. it gets very tiring changing up at 4k revs! It's like driving a car like an S2K but with short gear ratios meaning you have to change up at 4k.....not good. I really think cars like the 335d are in such a bizarre niche imo....

Kind of on topic but I have just came back from a week in Portugal where we had 120d for the week. To be fair to it it really suprised me as I expected to hate it. Bags of low down torque, very quiet and smooth and averaged about 50mpg. I would have been hard pushed to guess whether it was diesel from just driving and listening to it. I must admit I was starting to think about having a look at them when I got back home......until towards the end of the week I wanted set it on fire!! It was sooooooooooooo slow when pulling away, I thought we were towing a plane!! Once that set it I started to hate almost everything about it again

Read it again Chris. Salient points; - Phoned up over an hour before - wow! Not really lots time for a dealer to move the car about clean it organise staff such as who is doing the test drive etc. - I made it clear that I had a budget of £20-21K and wanted to compare to other cars in the same price bracket (B7 RS4, 335i). *Salesman's alarm bells going off* He's sensing someone who is not here to even potentially buy a 370z never mind the actual car they have. - I considered it perfectly reasonable that I could drive a car that was in stock - I would bet my bottom dollar that this was only discussed when he arrived therefore the dealer is thinking "this guy was bored on a saturday afternoon and on his way into town thought he'd have a razz in our most expensive car on the forecourt to show off to his Mrs. He then proceeds to bore me straight away about buying other cars and having seen another cheaper car at another dealer" And judging from the OP's posts he obviously thinks he's some sort of Nissan Royalty. Maybe he should have worn his "My other car is a 300zx". Bet he would have got a test drive then

Good luck with the sale but I think your way overpriced. There are MY07 HR zeds about now for less money and less mileage. Flog the plate and the Volks for £2k and flog the car for £8k........

Buy the newest you can afford

I'm sorry but I think your being a bit of a cry baby. Dealerships are business' looking to earn money. You stated that you was not interested in the car they had for sale; therefore why would they spend their time and money on you when you've already stated your going to buy elsewhere. Your mistake was thinking it's ok to tell them that basically your wasting their time. You should have said you were interested in the car they had for sale and then said you'll get back to them in the end. It sounds like you expected to turn up, and because you've bought a few Nissan's in the past, that the Sales Manager would roll out the red carpet for you................

I'd be more annoyed at the cop slamming my door open into the cab and then leaning all over it!!!

I think the key here is that you have to realise that whilst your not in a car like a zed your not actually going to enjoy driving. Your primary aim is/was cost cutting so you need to get into that mindset now. In my previous cars, I would love going for a blast and even a trip to the corner shop was an experience. Now it's a purely functional experience. It's like being married to a Porn Star for years and then going back to being single; it's just not as much fun as it used to be

HPI only gives you Insurance claims against the car where they are significant enough to become CAT D or C cars. Did you ask him if it had been in an accident? If you did and he said no then then have a point.....

Yup I bid 900 as I couldn't afford anymore so someone has got a good deal If you bid £900, why didn't you win as they went for £900?

Not sure what the problem is here??? Did you ask him if the car had been in an accident and he said no?? If so then I understand. If you'd not asked him and then when asked he told you, whats the problem??

Wow. Maybe Val was right?

What????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It came with it as its an Msport, I don't have an issue as its not saying its someting it's not. If it said M5 then that would be a different ball game Msports don't come with M badges Only 'M' cars come with 'M' badges..................

Some 'crappy cars' can be hiding something special under the bonnet, and are just waiting for lardy cars like a 350z with drivers with superiority complexes, to eat alive.............

Got what you deserved by the sounds of it

What?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Are you trying to put him off??!! Stew's done well for himself;

Your going to need to provide more info than that
