Beau Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 What do people think of this car? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nissan-350z-Black-55-500-miles-2004-IMMACULATE-/320694258245?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item4aaade0a45 Looks to be in very good condition, guess only bad side would be is that it is imported! Make him an offer of £6k? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always have it wrapped for an extra £8/900 or so and that will make it look like new again The white does look very but they are hard to come across!

Ricey Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 OK well I am viewing it tomorrow so I will inspect the repair work them, but I think I will aim for a maximum price of 5.5k though thats a dam cheap 350z. Make sure you inspect the bits that "weren't in the accident" as well. If this guy is as much of a chump as you reckon then other area's might be affected. It doesn't take much to write a car off these days so you might get lucky. RAC inspection is a definite and if I was you I'd go a step further and take it to your local trusty mech (if you have one) - slip him a few quid and as him for a proper expert opinion.

zcomputer5 Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 I just had a look at the car and I am very disappointed. The car appear mechcanically sound but the paint work is very bad, it appears to me that they have just respray the white paint straight on top of the orange paint! There are also cracks in the paint of the bumper and stone chips where the orange shows through. I have a few pictures of the paintwork white I will post later when I am back home.

ChrisS Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Glad you scratched that itch and things are good. The members may rip in at times,but that is because they care about zed owners. New or old. Enough of the slush,good luck hunting. Oh and Sunset all the way..............they are quicker. (I await an ear bashing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveRS Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 If your looking for a White one and don't mind it being an import, I found this one on pistonheads that may be of interest to you, looks lovely in White http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2595677.htm Hope the link works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of Silver Zeds down at the £6k-£7k mark, and RT Performance on here are doing some discounts on wrapping have a chat with them about wrapping it. I popped in there the other day and Tarras had a white matte wrap on his Zed which looked and felt stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djrm Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 My car is a Cat C... And drives, looks, feels PERFECT... If the car has been damaged and repaired well, checked and cleared - you should have no problems at all! There's a member on here (username iludes me) that has just taken a write off and almost rebuilt the whole of 1 side and you would never know the difference!!

Also how much do you think it would cost to wrap a zed? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricey Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 1st one is overpriced to me - import and higher miler compared to what you can get........methinks your getting lead astray by White cars 2nd one looks good - UK GT spec, cheaper and lower miles. Leather is a little ropey but you can get good kits to bring it back to life. Zorst doesn't look stock to me - stainless aftermarket job. If your pitching tent for a white one just get the cheapest tightest Zed you can find and get it wrapped. I think your looking at about a grand for a wrap but pm RT Performance for a quote (seen their work in the flesh and its top notch). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesc Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 That second link on AutoTrader seems a bargain. The first one not so much, unless you really, really want a white one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make him an offer of £6k? Don't be put off by the fact that it is an import. All Zs are built in the same factory in Japan. Just check what extras you are getting as the JDM specs are different from the UK ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think I will look at the one on autotrader tomorrow and take a few pictures of the exhaust and post them up so I can get peoples thoughts. I was just wondering can I test drive cars from a dealer even though I personally don't have insurance, I am just a named driver on my mums policy at the moment. Do they have insurance? Thanks.

Thanks! http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/list.asp?s=299&dist=10&pc=&min=&max=6501&y1=&y2=&txt=&px=&filter=TP&o=p&Submit=Search A few kicking around here. Mostly imports but if you only want to spend £6k-£7k thats what you will get. I think RT Performance were looking at something like £800/£900 to wrap a car, check with them drop them a PM. I asked a mate once about colours and was it important to him when choosing a car, he quite aptly said "Yes it was very important to me, which in hindsight was a mistake"...
