Gonzo Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 Hi guys! Thought I'd register and post an introduction, as my new 350z will be with me in a fortnight. I've been lurking here for a bit and soaking up some good stuff. My car history: We'll gloss over the Austin Maestro I learnt in, and the M- reg Escort! Then on to a Ford Puma for a few years, and for the last three and a bit years I've been driving a Vx220 N/A with a really big smile on my face! I don't really want to part with it, but the soft top's starting to go, the 120 mile round trip commute (I work at Heathrow, and live in Southampton) is getting a bit wearing, especially in the winter when the car takes a good hour to warm up inside! So there we are, Azure blue Coupe with the GT pack (heated seats, lovely!) on the way! Nice, comfortable cruising up the M3, and still smiling on the B roads on my days off! Hope to meet some of you guys soon! Quote

Gonzo Posted December 31, 2006 Author Posted December 31, 2006 Thanks for the welcome guys. Here's my current pride and joy. Sad to see it go.... Quote
H5 Posted January 1, 2007 Posted January 1, 2007 I have an Elise in the household too and these things are such good fun. But welcome to comfort and a bit more refinement!! Quote
burgershot Posted January 1, 2007 Posted January 1, 2007 best colour (of current car and new one when it comes) Quote
Gonzo Posted January 4, 2007 Author Posted January 4, 2007 Thanks again guys. H5, my plan is to keep the 350 as my 'all weather car', and if and when I move in a few years to a place that has a garage I'll be getting another VX to play in. Mine's never been in a garage in three years, and even spending lots of time on the soft top it's wearing out and starting to leak. Burgershot, I agree. I am also partial to the Sunset colour, but I thought that would clash with my ginger hair!!! Only eight days to go now!!!! I find myself out every day in my VX.... 'Just one last goodbye blast....'

mini Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 welcome to the forum Gonzo, you'll certainly have equally as much fun in the zed. Quote
Stew Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 Welcome and enjoy. You'll like the 350Z, it's a little comfier than the VX! Quote
