JSMotty Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 After a good few years, I am looking for a 350Z.. My current car is a Mini Cooper, so its a nice jump, and I am in a position now, which I might not be again whereby I can get the car i have wanted for so long.. And advise anybody can give us on what to look for on used cars, looking for a 06 / 07 with limited mileage.. And any good dealers in the Surrey area who know 350z's, as my image of Nissan dealers is not great. Quote
M13KYF Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 use the search button, plenty of info in this section alone. and enjoy finding your Z, you won't regret it Quote
martinmac Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Welcome to the forum bud, a good buyers guide in Evo this month. Quote
H5 Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Welcome to the site. Take a look in the FAQ section and anything not answered fire away. There are a few members around Surrey / Berkshire way and people are normally happy to help out if they can. Quote
Cool Hand Luke Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Hello & Welcome Although its good for piece of mind to have dealer 'backup' i wouldnt limit myself to just searching dealerships for a Zed - in my experience the cars they were offering were overpriced and below average condition wise.

sunset350z Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Welcome to the site Many of us would agree, that some, but not all nissan dealers have a poor image, mainly due to their lack of knowledge when it comes to the Zed. Things will have to improve when the GTR and then the 370Z are released, otherwise they are going to get slated, imo Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Hi, I live in Surrey too, Wilsons in Epsom were good at selling the car but havnt had a great experience afterwards. You do get 3 months warantee with a 2nd hand car. If your near croydon, there is a good one for sale in south croydon at a 2nd dealers on the brighton road near Ancaster Wilson... Hope you get a good one cause they are a great car... Mark Quote
JSMotty Posted September 6, 2008 Author Posted September 6, 2008 Thanks for your advice... Picking up a early 07 Z in Gun Metal next week.. Really looking forward to it.. As its my first rear wheel drive car, any suggestions of driver training, especially say an airfield with lots of run off and a skid pan. See a few on here and would be interested to know your comments. Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 So long as you feed in the power progessively and not just stamp on the throttle in the lower gears you should be fine. And don't switch the TCS off until you feel confident and only then in the dry. Quote
