Is it a 313????

[tony182627]

Brand new member, buying Z soon.

 

I need help. Can a 313 be the old shape bonnet, not the one with the bulge.

 

Some bloke in Cardiff has posted an ad on Auto trader - 07, Azure Blue, 20k, £16,395 (see attached jpg). He says that Cardiff Nissan sold him the car as a 313bhp and he has receipts with this on. I thought that 313's had the bigger bonnet? Also am I correct in thinking that the 313 has 2 air intake filters either side of the engine compartment, and 300 doesn't.

Yes, you are correct. The 313 has to have the bonnet bulge and twin intakes. I think this ad has been spotted before.

 

You arent wasting any time mate.

[Cragus]

If its a 313 it will have two air intakes - one at either side

[Sarnie]

The old bonnet doesnt fit on top of the 313 engine

The only one I can find for sale in Cornwall is grey and well overpriced IMO. If you find anything that a fair distance away one of the local members can give it a once over for you.

See this thread for more detail - someone had a similar query:

You may be lucky to find a dealer who still has a demo for sale. Nissan handed the last of the 350zs out at 20k and pretty much killed the general market for a while.

 

I know one dealer that was left with an ex demo at a too high price. Its still there now.

Defo the 296 model not 313! Bang him down on price and if you like i can do an HPI check for you for free because i have like 3 free checks as i bought a multi hpi package!

you won't get an Azure if it's a 313 you want - the colour was replaced by Night Blue

With your luck that was good idea.

You telling me!

 

In the end going with a dealer was the best way to go xD, Safe and a 1 year warranty!

Cheers for the info

 

If any one out there knows of a mint 313 going for a good price, give me a shout

[DoogyRev]

I will keep an eye out for you

 

Are you looking for private or trade? budget? colour?

 

I am in Hampshire so if you come across anything happy to have a peek !!

[tony182627]

If you want specifics - I want midnight blue, sat nav, low miles (sub 30k), and all for 16 grandish.

 

But I will look at anything in the 15 to 17 grand bracket.

 

Cheers mate

Its worth keeping any eye out on the dealers... here are two (bit more then you are wanting to pay) - you may have seen already

Night Blue is a great colour BTW

[stanski]

You won't regret buying the 313 and Night Blue is the best colour( unbiased off course)

don't just look at Nissan though a few of them are finding their way onto the car supermarkets try the car people for example .

I agree with not just looking at Nissan, but I have only seen night blue for sale at dealers. They seem to be quite rare as private sales.

Your right mate. When I looked for mine it was only 1 of 2 for sale in the whole country. It was still a rare colour towards the end shame they ditched it but sneakily they sell a Twilight blue on the rest of the range that looks almost identical?

 

Well good luck with your search.

[tony182627]

when and if I manage to get one you will all know, with pics

For the price your talking about I think you'll struggle. Still 06 plates with that sort of mileage going for about 16 grand up here
