Lexx Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 The search function would help you answer these. But... Firstly - if you get a 52 plate it will be a JDM (Japanese Import). 03 was the first UK cars. 03-06 tax is £250 ish (cant remember exact figure) Only 2 UK specs - GT and non-GT. GT included Cruise, Leather Seats, Uprated Bose stereo, Rays alloys (on early cars). Quote

Richsouth Posted February 19, 2012 Author Posted February 19, 2012 Thanks for the fast reply lads. Iv read one for sale advert that says that there 2002 model is only £250ish for Tax for a year and he stated that other models are £450ish for a year...? any ideas on this? Thanks again Quote
Lexx Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 *cough*search*cough* RFD rates were recatagorised in 2006. Thus any cars built post 06 are in the new catagory of £450. Pre 06 cars are £250. All this information is available on the DVLA website. Quote

JT350GT4 Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 I taxed my 05 plate a few days ago and it was £260 for the year Quote
Richsouth Posted February 19, 2012 Author Posted February 19, 2012 What do you guys think of this? Or should i be weary? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-NISSAN-3 ... 4ab431ebc7 I think he is looking at getting about 7k for it. Quote
DoogyRev Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 That looks like gazhull8474's old car http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=113&t=37177 Quote
Lexx Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 I wouldn't count on getting 30mpg. Most people seem to average around the 25mpg mark. Quote

DoogyRev Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 I wouldn't count on getting 30mpg. Most people seem to average around the 25mpg mark. +1 I average 24.7mpg most of the time, only on a long motorway run will I get 28-30mpg.... and then I just get bored, overtake someone and ruin it Quote
