  1. Here she is Had my first drive to work this morning, taking it very easy for now, but a HUGE smile when the foot goes down. Just lovely.
  2. err, just a slight caveat or two to the above - if the ZED you are buying is a pre 06 model it would not be bluetooth enabled. If it is an import then it is unlikley to have any phone fitting in place - as GC350Z says above, the give away is the absence of phone buttons on the steering wheel and that also applies to all roadsters. If the car does have the buttons on the steering wheel the 'cradle' is two parts. For pre 06 cars there is base (fixed to the floor under the 'armrest') with wires entering it at the back that carries the actual cradle to hold what are now rather obsolete mobiles There were a choice of cradles to suite phones as follows: Ericsson T68, T68i Nokia 7250, 7210, 6610, 6100 Nokia 7250(i), 6220 Nokia 6310i, 6310, 6210 Siemens C45, S45, S45i, ME45, M50, MT50 Siemens C55, S55 Quite often with s/h puchases the 'cradle' that actually carries one of the above phones is not in the car. Should you want one to suit one of those vintage phones post a 'wanted' thread otherwise be prepared to pay mega bucks from NISSAN. If the car is 06 and later it should be bluetooth enabled. Same principle applies in terms of the two piece cradle except that a unit clips ont onto the wired base (about the size of a small mobile phone) and has an orange/red indicator light. If your phone is bluetooth all you need to do is 'pair' it with the car and hey presto it should work. Some bluetooth phones do not seem to work to well, or at all, owners have experienced different outcomes, but if you do a search on this site there is a (long) list of compatible phones. Mike, one of our moderators (MYK) has provided this. Good luck and oh by the way phone or no phone once you are behind the wheel there will lots of s edit I see by the time I wrote the above others have got in - no doubt some pics will pop up soon it's a 54 plate so clearly isn't going to be much point in me exploring this, that explains why the previous owner had a cradle glued to the underside of the steering wheel. Oh well, I'm not a rep so doesn't really matter to me iPod support on the other hand.......!!!!!!
  3. Ah, I see - so providing the cradle itself is there (and there was definitely something metal, I only looked briefly) I can't insist on the adapter seems to be what you're saying, sounds reasonable enough. I don't know what the whole thing should look like (GT 54 plate), anyone have a picture?
  4. Oh it has the buttons on the steering wheel all right, and in the arm rest looks like *part* of a cradle, it was hard to tell - but this is precisely why I'm asking so thanks for the clarification! So the adapter should also be part of the standard package?
  5. Sorry to start a whole new thread on this but I need to figure out what to ask my dealer to address before taking delivery of my second hand 350z next week. We saw two different GTs, one appeared to have a little cradle in the arm rest, but the one I'm buying doesn't. (there's glue residue under the steering wheel where something appears to have been attached). I just want to make absolutely sure there's nothing missing from the car which is required for pairing, can anyone confirm if these are extras / accessories? Thanks!
  6. I'm pretty hopeless at DIY, but this sounds like exactly the solution I need. Can anyone recommend someone in the Midlands who could install this for me?
  7. It costs me at least £60 - £70 and I never leave it till nearly empty. Can't risk running out. . . But then again it does cost about £1.05 per litre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So if it does 25mpg that's 500 miles a tank..?
  8. ooh, nice Such a n00b, I hadn't really paid attention to the wheels talk. To be honest before I went out yesterday I thought I might not want the GT, but as soon as I'd seen it and then saw one without I knew. The final one having nice wheels (and parking assist) was just irresistable!
  9. What's generally the deal with Rays wheels? If they're on the car I've bought are they likely to have been specified at the time of purchase? I really like them, big part of why I bought the one I did.
  10. yes, trying to ignore that one. Each mod = 1 tank of petro to test so add £70 per mod It costs £70 to fill up...?
  11. I got one Silver GT 54 plate, 17k miles, UK model. Oh crumbs.
  12. Will let y'all know. There's only one Nissan dealer car on my wishlist right now.
  13. 50k max I would expect. But there's two packages I believe, a low and a high.
  14. Well the FAQ seemed to indicate it was a cheaper way of having six services spread over three years?
  15. Hi I read about this in the FAQ but am a little confused if it's something that Nissan dealer will offer even if you don't buy the car through them.. As I understand it, it's a way of guaranteeing the costs of a service plan over three years. Thing is I'm unlikely to find the car I want through a Nissan dealer. I spoke to Antelope in Banbury who seemed to think they would but wanted the chassis number... Anyone advise? It's a big part of whether I decide to take the car or not.
  16. Ooh, the one on your website? that is nice actually.
  17. lol small world. crap, between us we'll probably drive the bloody price up! Pistols at dawn my man more like handbags.................. oi, ducky!
  18. lol small world. crap, between us we'll probably drive the bloody price up!

  20. What do people think of Discount Car Centre? Good?
