Greddy-Matt Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Hi All Thought I'd say hello as after months of looking I picked up my first 350z yesterday, just wanted to say I found this site fantastic in researching what I wanted, and what to look out for when buying etc so decided to join, its a great site . I ended up buying an immaculate UK GT in Silver with 38,000 miles on the clock for a little under 8k (I think I got a good deal!?), and can say without a doubt it was worth the 300 mile round trip to get it, I'm absolutely over the moon with it, happy days! Please excuse the poor pic but it's filthy after spending 4 hours on the M25/M3 yesterday, will put some better pics up once its been scrubbed: I have a ton of questions to ask, but promise to use the FAQ / Search Any owners near or in the New Forest by any chance? Cheers Matt Quote
martinmac Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Congratulations Matt and welcome to the forum. Quote
Railgun Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Welcome to the club fella. Many happy miles. Quote
Keyser Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Hello and Welcome Congrats on the purchase Quote
Greddy-Matt Posted September 5, 2011 Author Posted September 5, 2011 Thanks guys thanks for the warm welcome, had ths morning off so was off to the local dealer to pick up some new parts, she's now got fresh oil, filter and air filter, so much easier to work on than my old car (Toyota MR2 turbo) only took a half hour to change the oil etc. Nearly passed out at the cost quoted for spark plugs so will have to shop around for those (£115.00+VAT... er really??), and who the heck designed the oil dipstick on these things Quote
Humpy Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Was that what the stealers quoted you? Just purchasing some spark plugs of Zmanalex, think you will find his price a little easier to digest Welcome to the forums anyway and congratulations on your purchase! Steve. Quote
EH 370z Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Subject to chassis confirmation We could do them (6x) for £75 incl VAT but even so Quote
Greddy-Matt Posted September 5, 2011 Author Posted September 5, 2011 Yep, dealer in Southampton for the plugs, £15 something each plus VAT, the cars only done 38k but is six years old so want to treat it Thanks EH 370z, will have a look once I've got a few more posts under my belt, ZMANALEX also.

Maccaman Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Hi Matt & to the forum. Looks like you got yourself a bargain. Quote
Greddy-Matt Posted September 5, 2011 Author Posted September 5, 2011 ^^^ Loving the orange, that body kit looks evil! Quote
Sam Mcgoo Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Welcome to the club. Good to see your looking after it well already. Have a look around the traders here you'll get the plugs much cheaper. I would recommend the Denso Iridium. Much better plug and cheaper then the platinum that Nissan will sell you. Quote
