boomer816 Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Hi all, after months of pondering what to get i finally decided on the Z. I currently have a Civic VTI which has lived with me for many years. Hopefully will keep both as these running costs do seem like they can hurt, but hey thats teh choice we make right.. Having instantly fallen for the Z as soon as i testdrove at Nissan, i did find it hard to walk away, i think it was the thought of about 3k premium over a private sail that clinched it. Im looking at either a 54 or an 05 GT preferably in the gun metal colour with the black leather. If i get it in time will hopefully take it to JAE. Anyway bye for now, hopefully the next message will have my new car details Quote
martinmac Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Hi and welcome to the site. Its a great time to buy so best of luck with the search. Look forward to seeing some pics when you find the one you want. Quote
boomer816 Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 They all seem to be around the 14-15k mark with around 25k miles. Any vital advice i should know before i go to view. Im looking at one tomorrow (friday) evening. Quote
S1 HNK Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 there are some great deals to be had, on this forum there are low mileage cars for sale for under 13k!!!! dont pay more than you have to because they will only continue to drop. Quote
RobD7 Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Great news mate, you've made the right choice! Quote
boomer816 Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 Thanks for all the welcome messages guys. Was wondering im going to JAE next weekend hopefully with my new 350z if i can sort it out in time. Are many others going up for the event? would be nice to meet and see some of th other members cars. Quote
H5 Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Welcome to the club There are one or two going to JAE, but given it's location it hasn't been as popular as it has in recent years. Quote
boomer816 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Posted August 22, 2008 Right went and test drove earlier am picking it up tomorrow afternoon. This was the advert. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/667587.htm Car drove really well. A couple of stonechips on the front and a tiny scratch on the passenger door. Turned out that its actually having the p1 and the 2 new tires tomorrow but he didn't expect to sell it so quick having only put it up on Monday. What does everyone think? Quote
bronzee Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 The interior looks pretty tidy, normally a good indicator of if it's been loved or not. Quote
GIXXERUK Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 looks gt uk with the spats fitted, good miles for the year congrats Quote
boomer816 Posted August 24, 2008 Author Posted August 24, 2008 Well well well what can say. Having seen the guys face when i picked it up last night in the rear view mirror i couldnt resist to rev it slightly. Truely love it, would have posted on here last night but as you can expect i was getting to her, and the fuel guage very well! If it drys out today i will get out and clean her up a bit and get some pics. Not looking very promising at the mo. All i can really say is !!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
martinmac Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 Nice one bud. See how long you can clean before you jump in for a drive Quote
