I Agree with the rest, if it looks to good to be true, it usually is!!

A friend of mine had a spin in his car side airbags went off, bent steering and a bent rear wheel, insurance wrote it off as it bent the chassis, could only just tell from the gaps each side of the boot lid.

wheels look a tad darker than normal rays, have you had them repainted

No, There the new ones, I think it could be brake dust, I'd done over 200 miles when I took these pics!!

Thanks for the welcome and approval:teeth:

Hi

Got the Z on friday and took it for a run to the coast on Sat, seen a orange Z on the A47 in Scraptoft, Leicester, then at Hesham, a guy cleaning his on his drive plate had SSU on it, wondered if they were anyone on here?

Must say I love the Z, really looking forward to taking it to the Nurburgring next weekend, hopefully will be taking it on the GP track there as well on the monday, that will be great as its not open to the public very often at all.

Anyway, heres some pics, let me know what you think.

Oh yeah for got to add managed to get 2 sets of rays with it, got it from a dealer in derby, not sure what the other standard wheels are called but the wife likes the rays, the dealer changed them for these ones that were brand new with RE050's on for £500 and got another set from a car thats been part ex'd for free, and if they need refurbing they'll do that as well.

So well chuffed as I'll have a set for on track.

Cheers

And Leicester are down, oh well, knew it would happen anyway, but if only we could have got the ball in the net instead of hitting the post.

I'm not renewing my season ticket, at least it'll give me more time to drive the new Z!!

Ando

I'd be up for this.

Cheers

haha, sprayed your M3 CSL bright orange & green "for a laugh!"

 

RESPECT!

 

I want a CSL for my next car..... got a good 3 years or so to wait though and wouldnt swap the z for the world at the minute!

Sorry should have said these cars have been Vinyl Wrapped so they've still got perfect paint underneath, the Green one was Black and the Orange one Silver Grey. Look good from a distance but from up close you can tell and there not perfect like paint.

Cheers

HI All

Hello everyone in 350Z Land

I'm looking forward to Friday and the collection of my new (used) 350Z, Blade Silver 55plate with 21k on the clock.

Looking for ward to some nice weather this weekend to take it for a decent drive, then the weekend after I'm off to the Ring in it for 3 days so really looking forward to that, I was taking the Wifes Z3 2.8 but we're chopping that in on the Z. I did have a M3 (E36) until last Nov when I crashed it at Anglesey in the pit wall with no insurance, so won't be planning on trying to beat my lap time at the Ring this weekend.

Great Site and looking forward to some of the meets.

I'll bore you all a bit with some pics of the Z when it arrives.

Cheers

Mark.

aboard ando

 

great pic

 

HI thanks for the welcome, sorry to high jack the thread, that from when some of the lads went to the Ring at Easter. Glad I missed and went to Cyprus with the misses.

Here's one of my mate CSL's

Did for a bit of a laugh with the GT3 boys at the ring, my other mates had his done in the GT3 green.

EDIT found one of the green one

Cheers

Hi my first post

Those pics are awesome, not a CSL though, they have Carbon roofs, this one only has the boot lid and wheels, front bumpers are also different only have one hole in on the left for airflow for the butterfly valve on the airbox when it opens at 4k revs in sport mode.

422 were made, not many came to the uk maybe half, mainly in Silver Grey and Black, one or two custom colours about.

Not that I know much about them, just got 3 mates who have them for ring toys.

My favourite car amazing to drive, just can't afford one, picking up my 350 z on friday.

Great forum by the way.

Cheers
