sl114 Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 I cant believe what i have just done!!!! I went to view a GM 54 plate standard zed today, took it for a spin and loved it. The dealer offered me a great PX on my car so i put the deposit down there and then. I need to sort out my car as the engine light is on due to the sports exhaust system (£20 fix which i can do myself) and i can pick it up next saturday. The beauty is it only has 10600 miles on the clock. I can now very soon say, i am the proud, excited over the moon owner to be of a 350z Finally!! lol Quote
lomoto Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 at last.. , just a note of caution though ,a sports exhaust shouldnt put a cel light up Quote
sl114 Posted October 26, 2006 Author Posted October 26, 2006 at last.. , just a note of caution though ,a sports exhaust shouldnt put a cel light up The Janspeed sports cats do, its the way the Rover/MG ecu reads the emissions and it flags this up. Its a common fault and this elimiator just gets rid of that. But i dont care now 350z is coming!! Im at my Dad's in Oxford and i am going to get merry Quote

hagar Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 nice one, I remember how hard it was to wait for the day I could collect mine. I really miss mine too Quote
Ian Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 When do you pick it up, I know what your going through waiting to collect Quote
Stew Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 Well done mate. can't wait to be able to put up the old smiley on the day! Quote
sl114 Posted October 26, 2006 Author Posted October 26, 2006 I will hopefully be picking this up on saturday morning, so i should get some pics up for Sunday as i will get some proper pictures saturday night at my photo spot. Obviously i dont have the car yet and i dont want to jinx it at all, but wooohoooooo:yahoo: Quote
StephenG Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 Have fun, and welcome to the world of grins Quote
sl114 Posted October 27, 2006 Author Posted October 27, 2006 Here is a picture from the dealership Quote
monkfish Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 Nice one mate! At last! At least you only have a few days to wait. I had to wait over a fortnight due to private reg and road tax transfers. It was torture!! Quote
M13KYF Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 At last. Now we can get on with some proper post instead of your drooling Quote
AndyC Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 At last. Now we can get on with some proper post instead of your drooling And going on about the MG Just kiddin mate Quote
hagar Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 btw dont get GAP (if you are getting it) from the dealers - try www.click4gap.co.uk - very cheap - cost me 160 quid for 15k cover over 3 years. Just a side thought Quote
sl114 Posted October 29, 2006 Author Posted October 29, 2006 At last. Now we can get on with some proper post instead of your drooling I will still be drooling, however now comes the hard part of learning as much as i can about the car i drive, so expect lots of questions when people post things up that i dont understand and lots of new threads for things (after i have used the search function ) that i dont quite know.

Now we can get on with some proper post instead of your drooling And going on about the MG Just kiddin mate Nothing wrong with the MG, apart from rattles, bumps, jumpy starts, potentail head gaskets blowing, the usual. haha. I will miss the MG, but i have a new toy to think about Quote
sl114 Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 I just spoke to my dealer, the service is all done but i need to change the insurance to start Friday so that he can tax the car for me to pick it up first thing saturday. The insurance company are having problems changing it so they are calling me back in a bit. Grrrrrr I hope nothing is going wrong! However good news, he has just put brand new tyres on the back wheels as the old ones were a bit worn, which i pointed out and he said he wouldnt change them, but now he is, woohoo! Its now a day closer [edit] Insurance is all fine, car will be taxed Friday and i can pick it up Saturday. wooooooohooo Quote
