morgs Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I know it's a cliché, but I can't quite believe I'm writing this! I've had the joy of owning my Z for over 6 and ½ years, buying her completely standard at 24,000 miles and 2 and ½ years old and joined the forums at the same time. I know I'm going to miss her like hell, especially the noise (more on that in a bit!), but the chance has come up to own one of my dream cars and the Z (which was another dream car at the time) has to help fund that. I'm going to try and sell the car with all the modifications on and while I know they don't add the value we all hope they would, I believe the quality and quantity makes it worth the price I'm asking. Buying the mods alone, let alone fitting, would add at least £4000 to what a similar standard car is worth. If I can't get the price I'm looking for with the mods on, I will strip the car to standard and sell the mods separately and let the vultures circle! Basic Information 2006 (56) First Registered 13/10/2006 UK GT Car Azure Blue Coupé 80,678 Miles as of Today (Daily Driver, so will rise slightly) 2 Previous Owners Manual 6 Speed Gearbox Full GT Spec – Brembos, Black Leather Heated and Electrically Adjustable Seats, BOSE Sound System with 6 CD Changer Bluetooth Module Full Service History (P1 Service Just done on 04/11/2015) 3 Keys MOT until February 15th 2016 Always run on 99RON Fuel Never Tracked/Dragged/Drifted etc! Detailed 05/11/15 Service History As well as the stamped services below, I have all the invoices for everything I've ever bought for the car. P1 - 13,076 - 06/02/08 P2 - 23,426 - 10/01/09 P1 - 31,091 - 05/10/09 P3 - 39,899 - 06/09/10 P1 - 48,198 - 05/09/11 P2 - 55,934 - 05/09/12 P1 - 65,812 - 10/10/13 P3 - 73,825 - 20/11/14 (Plugs, Diff Oil & Gearbox Oil all changed) P1 - 80,668 - 04/11/15 Modifications All have been purchased from members or traders (mostly CS, sorry mate!) of this forum. The noise this setup makes is incredible and is thing thing I will miss the most! Don't just take my word for it though, ask anyone on the forum and further afield who have heard it! Engine Nismo Mid and Rear Section Cobra Y-Pipe (Was originally Nismo, until the Y-Pipe did it's usual thing!) Berks De-Cats (Have the original cats for MOT, which have covered approx 30,000 miles) JWT Pop Charger Exterior Genuine Nismo V1 Custom Front Bumper (Smoothed Front & Panther Black Intake) Rota PWR – Fronts 19x9.5 ET 20 (245/35/19 Vredstein Ultrac Vortis) & Rears 19x10 ET 20 (275/35/19 Bridgestone RE050As) They were the first set in the UK I believe CS? Black Diamond Discs and Pads at the Front, Brembo Discs and Yellow Stuff Pads at the Rear. Meister-R Zeta-S Adjustable Coilovers (I have the spanners of course!) 2006+ Bi-Xenon Headlights with Silvertec Indicators 2006+ LED Rear Brake Lights Rear Badge Replaced with JDM Black Z Logo JDM Indicator/Fog Cluster with Silvertec Indicators (for anyone with OCD!) Michelin Stealth Front Wipers PIAA Rear Wiper Stubby Ariel (Of course!) Interior Genuine Nismo Gear Knob (I have the original knob and the Nismo Gear Pattern as well) RSW Carbon Interior (This is REAL Carbon, not hydrographics etc. Not all fitted yet. Section that fits around Gear Stick/Ventilation Controls has a section cut away, this was for a Tein controller that the person I bought it from had)Wrap Carbon Wrapped Strut Brace Cover Ian's Z Boot Divider This car is my daily driver and while I love it to bits and care for it as best I can, there are a few things to note regarding the condition of the car. The front has the usual stone chips the Z attracts and there is a small crack on the passenger side arch section of the front bumper. On the bonnet, there is a small section of paint where it has de-laminated after an albatross (maybe a Pterodactyl?) shat on my car while I was away during some of the hottest days of summer. I've improved it as best I can and it isn't very noticeable unless pointed out, but none the less it is there! There are a few chips on the side of the car, but again, I have rectified these as best as possible and are hardly noticeable. There is some kerbing and stone chips on the wheels, I have taken a picture of each wheel to show this as best I can. The drivers door pull has scratches from the previous owner who wore rings and this is one of the main reasons I got the RSW Carbon, to cover it up and look even sexier! The left hand section of the steering wheel has started to have the lacquer come away, these can easily be replaced or painted up. Maybe some more carbon! I'm based just outside Weston-super-Mare, drop me a PM for my number if you want to chat about the car or arrange to hear it. Sorry, see it Questions welcomed here and via PM as well of course. £10,500 I was hoping for some dry weather to take the photos, but sadly the rain prevailed. I will get dry photos up as soon as I can! And now some gratuitous photos of my favourite shots! Pic whore to the end (Mr June in the 2012 club calendar!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
