Clown Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 Hi guys! Just joined up as I'm looking to get a new car so I thought I should do some research. I'm moving up from a written off Focus 1.6 and a Golf mkIV 2.0 (115bhp yo). I think I'm pretty much set on a 350Z GT 313 Coupe. Ideally I want Azure Blue but I reckon I will be happy with anything but the Orange. Insurance will be something like £1600 but I'm just going to have to take it on the chin. Now is the time to have a car like this while I'm still living with the parents. I wonder if I'll get one in time for Christmas... Also, say "Hi" to my dog in the pet thread Quote
Clown Posted November 20, 2011 Author Posted November 20, 2011 Oh, and I hope I fit in them. My belly hits the windscreen when I sit in a Polo Perhaps this will give me motivation to lose some of the gut. Quote
DoogyRev Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 Welcome Along ..... from one Clown to another Great pic's on your blog BTW Quote
Ebized Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 Welcome to the forum Unfortunately the 313's that came out in 2007 were not produced in Azure - they changed to midnight blue which is a much darker shade - nice but completely different. The 'sunset 'orange was also superceded in favour of 'temper' at the same time but as you don't want orange - end of Quote
coldel Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 What part of SW London out of interest, I lived in Wandsworth and Putney for nigh on ten years... Quote
LRF4N Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 Welcome along mate, the zed is very different to a focus. In a good way Quote
Clown Posted November 20, 2011 Author Posted November 20, 2011 What part of SW London out of interest, I lived in Wandsworth and Putney for nigh on ten years... Clapham, so not too far away! Just the Focus was written off. I remember it well. It was New Year's day, 2010 and I went out to get a McDonalds breakfast. I wasn't drunk and I wasn't speeding around in the snow. My hot chocolate fell over and I went to catch it but forgot to straighten the wheel. There is the mess I made! My Golf is still plodding along but I'm desperate to change it. Pics brought to life for you (just use the Img code) Ebized Quote

bronzee Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Promise you'll use the drink holder in the 350, when you find one. Quote
Keyser Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Hello and Welcome This is why you must never drink and drive Quote
Clown Posted November 21, 2011 Author Posted November 21, 2011 Hehe Boycey, you have every reason to wish me luck Quote
