mr orange Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Evenin' all, I'm pleased to say after a couple of years of wanting one, it's just a matter of 2-3 weeks before I go out and grab a Z .. thought I'd sign up to a couple of forums and have a nose around what people say to look out for when buying... Research suggects I can afford something in the year 06-08 40-60k miles territory.. Aim is to get the roadster model too.. Any buying tips welcome but for the meantime I just thought I'd say hello!

martinmac Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Hi and welcome to the forum. There is a well priced roadster for sale on here now. There is a post for new members in the FAQ sections with a few links for potential buyers. Pop along and say Hi if there are any meets or shows near you. Quote
mr orange Posted April 25, 2010 Author Posted April 25, 2010 Thanks all there seems to be a Bristol contingent and that's my patch so no doubt check out a meet.. once I've made the purchase Quote

rtbiscuit Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 welcome to the club, get to a meet early and it gives you a chance to check the zed over with people who know the car and no presusre of a seller next to you. Quote

Good bit of advice thanks! I'll see what's coming up soon.. maybe japfest at Combe if I haven't bought by then... Had a look at the roadsters on the sales board.. that black import is a beaut but.. for some reason I think I read they don't have auto levelling headlights which is a uk requirement for zenons.. I guess I need to start researching this stuff! Quote
IanS16 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 to the club Good luck in your search for a Zed Quote
