un1eash Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Hi everyone, i registered 2 years ago with the view to getting a 350Z but things changed and i ended up with a 2007 2.0i Z4 Roadster. I'm now back and still after a 350Z GT. I have a couple questions.... Is it worth going for the later 313bhp cars as road tax i believe to be £400+ where as the earlier before 2006 cars road tax is around £200? Also after having BMW warranty on my Z4 i would like to get atleast 12 months warranty on the 350Z so looks like i'll be buying from main dealer, how is there warranty and do they offer extended warranty? ps. I have around £16-17k to spend depending on what they give me part ex for the Z4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Hi and welcome back. Thats a healthy budget. I wouldnt worry about a Nissan extended warranty, just buy a third party one to open up your options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
un1eash Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 I'd like the car to be as new as possible but the road tax is putting me of slightly. And ive seen some nice older 350's for very good money so i'm tempted to just go for a 2004-2005. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainSensible Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 An extra £200 on road tax consideirng the amount you'll spend on fuel (not to mention the overall cost of the car) is not a lot. Just get one bought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narcotix Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Welcome to the forum! I own a 2004 Zed and haven't had any issues with it since I purchased it last year ... If you do plan on getting an older car I'd suggest you get one with lower mileage ... Good luck with the search .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNABASHED Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Welcome back I wouldn't let the tax cost play any part in your decision as it's probably the cheapest thing that you will spend on the zed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a mk1 mr2 and white suzuki swift sport on the driveway aswell. I was planning on getting an E92/E93 but after seeing to many on the roads its put me off.

maz0 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Welcome back, I considered the Z4 (3.0l) prior to the 350z, but I decided against in the end. What was your experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
