lukeaJones Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Hi everyone im a newby and im thinking of buying this, drove it today seems okay. Needs a new door card but does anyone know its history and what do you think? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2005-Nissan-350Z- ... 56406f2403 Quote
Walbertonio Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Welcome! Don't know the car, but certainly worth a closer look. Doubt dealer will be much help judging by that advert though, 4WD? Quote
lukeaJones Posted January 14, 2011 Author Posted January 14, 2011 No he doesnt know alot lol needs a couple of things on the interior but all seems okay. what you think about price? Quote
rtbiscuit Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 looks nice, banana cars are not common and defo not with nismo kit. well worth a look, the paint work really pops when its been well cleaned and waxed, looks stunning in the flesh. possibly be looking to get a not off the price though, but worth a punt Quote
ChrisS Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Don't know the car,but driven past it a few times last month. Looks OK from the traffic lights !! Quote
lukeaJones Posted January 14, 2011 Author Posted January 14, 2011 where you from chris? im from rhyl and work in chester Quote
Greeny Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 hey dont know the car personally but i drive past it everday really. ive had a look at it only a quick look mind, seems ok on the surface but it has been there for a long time!! and the ppl who run that place are very dodgy and possibly abit interbread.. lol rented a few vans from them to move house etc and they are very unhelpful and tryied to sting us for damage that was so old it had rusted! i would get a full aa or rac check on it my self. just to be safe. good luck Quote

ray350gt4 Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 i think i saw this car a few years for sale in local dealer then a month or so later was for sale in a dealer in norwich.it has been for sale there for quite a while i think. Quote
lukeaJones Posted January 14, 2011 Author Posted January 14, 2011 doesnt sound very good!!!!!!!! and the dealer wont budge on anything wont even look at a rattle in the boot or valet it, might just keep looking lol Quote
Ken Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 I'm new to the forum after getting my first GT4 a few weeks ago. I had been searching for one for some time and have got a record of GT4 that have been advertised on Auto Trader and Piston Heads over many months. I first saw this GT4 (number 8 i believe) advertised by this dealer on 4th May 10, it was priced at 13499. Thats a long time for a GT4 to hang around even Yellow ones. Hope it all works out well for you. Quote
ray350gt4 Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 when i saw it a few years ago it didnt look like the nismo kit had been fitted very well and the wheels looked tatty in silver not the black crome.maybe thats why it is taking so long for it to sell. Quote
lukeaJones Posted January 15, 2011 Author Posted January 15, 2011 He told me he only got the car at the end of December. He seemed a little bit dodgy when I was there. The car is no. 8 it's nice but I wouldn't buy it now lol. Il keep looking and tryand get one soon to come catch up with some days out with you lot Quote
Sarnie Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 That car was £11k only a few days ago, they are obviously desperate to shift it....... Quote
JetSet Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 Like Chris, I've driven past it several times over the last few weeks and yeah, it looks really nice from the road. I first noticed it for sale in late November, can't be more specific than that and I'm seeing the price slowly drop. That dealer specialises in High performance cars, they often have Ferrari's, Lambos, etc in there and they've been trading for as long as I can remember (and that's a long time ). I can take a good look at it if you like, it's about 15 minutes away from me. Pete Quote
lukeaJones Posted January 15, 2011 Author Posted January 15, 2011 its okay mate its a nice car and as you say its nice from the road but for that money i think id prefer to one that doesnt need tidying up lol. i have found another gt that im going to look at next week if i can see what you think: http://www.redlinespecialistcars.co.uk/car.php?id=1169 Quote
lukeaJones Posted January 15, 2011 Author Posted January 15, 2011 there's quite a few around n.wales on here its good iv been a member of celica-club with my gen 7 celica for the last 2 years and there was about 2 members up here. Im looking forward to getting a zed and joining in now Quote
350ash Posted January 15, 2011 Posted January 15, 2011 its okay mate its a nice car and as you say its nice from the road but for that money i think id prefer to one that doesnt need tidying up lol. i have found another gt that im going to look at next week if i can see what you think: http://www.redlinespecialistcars.co.uk/car.php?id=1169 Although it doesn't say so in the advert I'm pretty certain it's an import. There's nothing wrong with an import but there are some subtle differences and the prices for imports are usually a fair bit lower than UK cars - I think this one is probably a bit expensive. Quote

Someone else on here bought a very similar looking car from this dealer only to find out it was an import. I seem to remember him trying to get a full refund from them. The car has a UK read bumper now, so I'd be very wary of why that would be............... Quote
