Ry-B Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Hi all, Looking for some advice here, I'm planning on going to look at a 350z but after looking at the MOT history I am a bit concerned as the past two years mention rust. I understand that the wording can be very general and it could be as simple as the W brace etc. However, if anyone has advice on what the following could actually be that would be great: - Corrosion around rear suspension mountings - Nearside Rear body corroded by subframe mounts but not holed - Offside Rear body corroded by subframe mounts but not holed - Integral body structure is corroded but structural rigidity is not significantly reduced central bracing plate (6.1.1 (c) (i)) Many Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotdot Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 The only way to know for sure is to see it, also just because an MOT history has no advisories doesn’t mean that there aren’t any, it just means that none have been recorded. Whilst a good MOT tester will record what they see it’s all about what is seen and documented at the “time of test.” Good luck with your search.

HEADPHONES Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I think ShortPaul is thinking of selling his Zed. Only about 30k miles on it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umster Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 The car is at least 10 years old and priced like a Nissan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry-B Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 Thanks for the replies, I have been keeping an eye on the forum for a while but nothing seems to have been coming up lately. Probably everyone enjoying their cars during summer! Will definitely view the car still and have a good look as other than this it ticks all my boxes so either way will get closure.
