SOLD

 

Asking price was £4650 but I'd like it off my driveway so here goes :lol: starting from £1.

It's finally time to sell my much loved Nissan 350z.

 

It's registered as a 2003 import. Semi-automatic gearbox. 84,400 miles on the clock. MOT until 29/08/19. A few tasteful but subtle mods to make it a more enjoyable driving experience.

 

I purchased the car in early 2011 with the intention of keeping it for 2-3 year (cars + girlfriends had only ever lasted 18 months!). More than 7 years later, I've finally found a new toy (supercharged 370z) to start the journey again.

 

It's been a joy to drive and by far the most reliable car I've owned. Maintenance is simple and inexpensive. I've always selected high quality fluids / filters for every service and provided them to the garage for use during services. Always run on super unleaded.


Service history (mileage - date):

12278 - 22/02/08
18347 - 09/02/09
28191 - 17/02/10
35359 - 18/08/11
44898 - 22/08/12
52287 - 30/08/13
54000 - 01/12/13 (flushed coolant and brake fluid, new spark plugs)
59272 - 11/08/14
65868 - 20/07/15
72133 - 19/10/16 (flushed coolant)
77818 - 05/09/17 (flushed coolant and brake fluid)
83088 - 15/08/18 (new spark plugs)

 

Standard spec:

3.5l v6 engine
Bose sound system with subwoofer
Heated / electric seats
Electric windows
Electric mirrors

 

Styling upgrades:

Front /rear bumpers and number plate (same as UK GT spec)
Rays forged alloys (same as UK GT spec)
Nismo rear spoiler
Personalised number plate included (V6 ESO, meant to look like V6 350... Previous owner purchased it, hides the age of the car nicely!)

 

Brake upgrades (massively improved stopping power):

Brembo calipers (same as UK GT spec)
DBA T3 rotors
Ferodo 2500 brake pads
Braided brake lines
Race spec brake fluid

 

Engine/exhaust upgrades:

Uprev remap by Horsham Developments in 2016
Software delimited (no hardware delimiter to mess things up. Imports are limited to ~107mph)
Invidia Gemini cat-back exhaust, titanium tips. Fitted 2017
Berk high flow cats
Orange anodised plenum spacer
Hydrodipped plenum (easier to keep clean!)
HKS air filter

 

Other upgrades:

Car has extensive sound proofing to help cut out all the rattles, road noise and improve the music sound quality. Even with a large sound system, it will not rattle.
Second skin damping mat covering the rear half and both doors
Second skin closed cell foam covering the boot area
Whiteline adjustable rear drop-links (fitted 2018)
Rear view camera fitted, didn't get round to wiring it in.


Bad points:

Parking scrapes on the bumpers (thanks ex-work colleagues!)
Stone chipped front bumper (normal for these cars)
Neighbour's cat enjoys the warm engine so a few claw marks from when it gets heavily waxed and the cat slips off.
Boot plastics are heavily scratched. This car has been used to carry lengths of timber and all sorts (works fine for 2.4m lengths!). They're easily replaced and cheap to acquire.
Some knocking can be heard at low speed when going over bumps on certain surfaces.  Common issue on these cars. This was mostly sorted by replacing the rear drop links (upgraded to adjustable ones). It's likely another bushing on its way out. Had the garage check this at MOT/service time and reported that it all looks fine.
Minor kerbing on the wheels
Carbon strut brace cover was my first practice attempt. It's far from perfect but functional. The original is also available.

 

 

I have a few spare parts for this car, they're not included with the sale but if needed:

Full boot build to fit a subwoofer/amps (looks totally standard, retains original floor height)
Custom A-pillars for larger tweeters
Doors pods for larger speakers
DBA T3 rotors, Ferodo 2500 pads
Various interior panels to customise
Carbon mirror covers
Auto mirror folding module


I'm based down in sunny Bournemouth. Welcome to test drive if your insurance will cover the car, otherwise I'll do the driving.

My number is [redacted] if you have any questions.
