Unfortunately autobrite dont do a fitting suitable for my pressure washer Now I just gotta decide if its worth buying a whole new lance for

Did I also read somewhere that the new bonnet is aluminium and not steel?

Does anyone know the specific model (fitting) that I would need to fit my Challenge Extreme (Argos) pressure washer? Not sure if its the same fitting as Karcher?

Just making my Xmas list for father xmas and wondering if a snow lance attchment is a useful item for a home clean?

My preference would always be to go for the latest model, even if it costs more.

I would love to spend whatever it takes but getting permission to spend £20k (I may have managed to work on her and get that up to 22k!) was an effort!

Had thorough test drives in coupe and roadster versions with both engines....and the 313 is a totally different engine...doesnt need to be revved hard to feel nimble and never seems to run out of puff even at 7000 rpm. 280 and 296 were depressing as i was coming from a very fast car but the 313 was so linear i didnt have to drive a gear up all the time to keep a smile on my face....plus its the latest version on the road so it holds its value better...and few probs with gearbox/clutch have been revised in the 313...

and dont forget that the Z's gears are long...bloody long smtms...which means that ur left hand wont stop changing gears on the 296...

hope i helped....

VBH on 5th Gear road test said pretty much the same thing about the new engine... I think my mind is made up, going to stick it out for a 313.

So did it come back working ok?

I'm sorry but didn't the MY07 zeds come with the 313 engine, starting with 07 plates and not 57 plates? I know there will be a tiny amount of 296 07 cars but 99% 07 cars will have the 313 engine............

I have seen a few advertised on 07 plates which appear (from the pics) to have the bump on the bonnet but from the looking I've done on the next (autotrader etc..) the majority of 07's I've seen have had the original bonnet.

But now there are a lot more people on the lookout for the right car for you

Yep, I'm in good hands!

Personally when spending this much money i would always wait for the one you really want.

 

Means there will never be that 'what if' in your head

 

Thats my thoughts anyway

Yeh, I'm definetely inclined to agree with that right now, I'll give it a few weeks and hope the right one comes up. Also only want it in Silver or Grey so I am limiting myself somewhat.

I guess I'm just thinking X years down the line will I find that people looking to buy Z's will be looking mainly for the new engine. I guess I worry too much... buying cars... a mugs game! ha

I dont really plan on making any mods, I had a 54 plate Z a year ago (and then got the Mondeo for practicality reasons) and was perfectly happy with the performance but I just got myself wound up into thinking I should get the 313. I dont know haha

Ok, so I have now sold my Mondeo and am ready to purchase a Z. I have up to 20k to spend and the dilema I am in is that currently there are no 57 or newer plate Z's available for sale privately. Ideally I wanted that one so I'd have the latest engine. However, there are a number of pre-57 plate Z's available for around the 18k mark which have everything I want except the engine. Is there that much of a noticeable difference between the two that you think it would be worth waiting a few weeks (I have my partners car to use in the meantime) for the right one to become available? Thanks all.

What petrol you putting in it?

Looking for someone to valet (including sorting a few chips) my car. I am in Milton Keynes. Any recommendations? Thanks

I had an 04 Gun Metal 350z GT but sold it. I have seen the error of my ways and looking to get an 06 350z but dont want to find it being replaced by a completely new model 6 months later. 2009 is ok

The design has been out quite a while now (and had a few facelifts along the way). I am just wondering how long we all think the current 350z has left before a completely new model appears?
