  1. Hello everyone after stupidly trading my 350z in for an "approved used" z4m, I'm desperate to return to the 350z. my z4m lasted me two months before the dealership purchased it back off me for original price. Issues included the z4m needed £1300 worth of work just two weeks after being sold it by a bmw dealer. After a long battle they got the bill, but originally they only offered half as a good will gesture. Work was completed, but it still didn't seem right. last two independant inspections both confirmed it needed a new steering rack! after just 3 years, and 20k miles? well that was the end, I got rid. purchased a vw golf gti 5 door dsg, approved used again from main dealer, and this also has been nothing but trouble! broke down on a1! air con seized, snapped my aux belt, ran out of electricity. It took them 3 weeks to fix it. I then took it for a service and cambelt change (cambelt should have apparently been done just after I purchased it but I had no idea at the time as the service book states change every 140,000 miles as opposed to the now recommended 40,000 miles!) and I get the most ridiculous phone call ever from the vw receptionist. "ah yes your car is ready if you would like to pick it up and oh yes your engine is knocking" at this point my blood pressure went through the roof, I was fuming. are these jokers for real? anyway they try to charge me £80 so they can investigate it which I kindly refuse. Another week in the dealership and they replace the hydraulic tappets? By this point I have lost any interest I had in this car. It will be going, just a case of when. give me my 350z back anyday of the week! at least nissan had some idea. these jokers have no idea. Anyone got a cherished, looked after 350z for sale? ideally I'm looking for a UK MY07 313 GT, any colour apart from orange (no offence), low mileage hopefully I'll be back soon I'd love a 370z but after losing 12k in 3 years on my 1st 350z I'd rather not commit financial suicide again
  2. thanks guys and girls I'm sure I'll be around on the forum from time to time. I'll certainly try and get to any yorkshire meets, maybe even wales Cheers
  3. After 3 years, and 71000 miles, I traded my uk 350z azure gt in for a BMW Z4M roadster. the 350z was epic, and this site helped me with many niggles/issues as well as a few mods Excellent site guys keep up the good work. Was nice meeting the yorkshire lot at the 370z test drive, great bunch of people. All the best Jon northernmunkeh
