Thanks for coming back to me guys! I thought it was quite cheap looking at the pics and mileage. I did call and ask about service history on the car and they got a little cagey when I quized them further on it.

 

Sorry, I've got to ask, what is BITSA?

 

Also, anyone looking at this who has a good example which they are perhaps looking at selling please let me know

BITSA=bits of this and bits of that=bitsathis and bitsathat

Try and say it with a Yorkshire accent :lol:

:welcome: that is an import, and it seems like they are trying to disguise the fact for whatever reason. Best to stay clear as it may off had rear end damage due to the bumper being UK spec. Also a lot of imports want have much or any history, so this could have been written off in Japan and brought over here to be repaired. :thumbdown:

Thanks for all your advice, being a relative "newbie" to 350z's it's great to get advice from those who have a passion for the car.

 

I've noticed a couple below on autotrader, be really interested in getting peoples' opinions.

Too good to be true??

Reading the listing, It's not mentioned of it being a GT...omitted accidentally? I've e-mailed asking if it were a UK model, and he has confirmed

 

It is a GT and a UK car. That does seem a bargain - 1 owner and it has the optional alezan leather (not cloth as stated) but not sure if it is Gunmetal (grey) or Blade (which is silver). It also has the Rays wheels which were optional at the time. Certainly worth a look I'd say - just make sure you get the history checked and no recorded accident damage and if your not mechanically minded have a report done - 72k miles is no big deal if properly serviced so check the extenst of the service history - better to be safe than sorry.

 

Good luck :thumbs:
