:blush: or i may have driven with it on for about 20 yards once or twice... damn auto - i forget to check it sometimes. ..I mean yeah, cough, its the handbrake turns that have worn it out...

I would say over the last 6 months prices have taken as big a hit as they ever would - i paid £13k for my import 03 plate with 35k on the clock, but its now probably worth about £8.5k This time last year the cheapest UK models were about £15.5k, but i think they're as low as £11k now... I couldn't tell you the prices for what you're after as i've only been looking at the bottom line really. ...as for how long you plan to keep it, i thought i'd be the same - i'd never kept any car more than 11 months before, but i can see myself keeping the zed for another couple of years yet!

... did you just take the graphic from the top of the page for your number plate, or did you find another copy? I tried to do this on my fullsize image but the graphic from here is too small!

Hey guys... im very nervous as its MOT time tomorrow Im pretty certain its gonna fail as the handbrake is more or less useless, so my question is what parts do i need in order to get it right? Are there brake shoes required or something? Does anyone know the part numbers, or a generic part i can get etc etc. Its for a JDM non-brembo. The other thing im fairly certain it will fail on is the headlight alignment, as i replaced the drivers headlight with a USA unit (£40 delivered, off eBay - bargain!). I have adjusted it to point as low and to the left as i can, but i dont know if its good enough. If it fails on that i'll have to swap it back to the UK unit i've still got - but the lens is clouded up so it might fail on that too! If it does i'll have to put them both in the oven and swap the lenses over ...so wish me luck... im not gonna sleep tonight!!

Oh, and welcome by the way.. go and introduce yourself in the Introductions section.

I think now is the time to buy to be honest... I would be suprised if zed prices dropped significantly more than they already have done. I bought an e46 bmw in 2006 just before the new shape coupe came out. I was expecting prices to reflect this a few months on but they didnt really. I think the potential owners of a £12-16k second hand zed are an entirely different market to those looking for a 370z. Also, with the current state of the world, i would question whether the economic problems will remain this severe... and if they dont the prices of the 350z could possibly rise slightly as consumer confidence returns? Sod it, just get it bought!

Hi Greg. Welcome to the forum Nice pics too

... I gave the stick a wobble and it seemed like it was in neutral! Crappy renault. I've never started with the cluch down though... whats the benefit?

Freaky - i was sooooo close to doing this lastnight. My Girlfriend sister's Clio had a flat battery, so i pulled my zed infront of it and gave it a jump. When i started her car she'd left it in gear and it jumped forward, and missed my car by about 1 inch. I was already about being interrupted on a saturday night, but if it would have hit mine i would have lost it properly!

That looks bad...

I like the top one. Certainly different.

Martin, simply stunning! Loving the wheels, and the engine bay is looking especially How long do you pla to run these rims before swapping to the winter set?

I work for myself sparkle and shine valeting where do you work? in macc? I work in Knutsford. Tell your pal to get a zed, and if he has any questions your more than welcome to give me a shout

Sorry - best i could do.

Bet you wish you had an auto like me - can drive it now! May be worth finding out where u stand legally - i had spine surgery in April and was told i couldnt drive for 6 weeks, as if anything happened i would be covered by insurance. ...i was back in the driving seat after 8 days though

Im sorry but that interior is Whats with the circular cubby and the whole bunch of random shapes thrown together for the center console?? That looks ridiculous. I bet TT drivers will be pi*sing theirselves laughing

Very good.

Hi pal, who do you work for in macc? Im from here as you can see! ...small world!

Nothing special but here's a vid from my phone...

We need more pics people...!!

OH DEAR. That is wrong.

shockingly awful. Dont do it! Get your dash retrimmed in alacantra instead

Hey everyone. Had a brilliant day today - what a birthday! Thanks to Martin & stan for the cake and card! You made my day Apologies for this pics - just dumped everything off my phone:

Cheers fella's. Im also Chris! Just had all my family round tonight and had a bit of a bash, but only had a couple of drinks in light of the early start See you in the morning.

I too am skeptical. Hope you got a good deal? I like integra's though and would have one - but would prefer a zed.
