Boo Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Hi all, I'm looking to buy an Azure (first choice) or Gun Metal 350z within the next month or two. But there doesn't seem to be that many Azures for sale. Here's what I'm after: Low-ish milage example (below 50k mark). Has to be a UK model. Azure but would go for a GM if there's no blue ones lying around. Full service history would be nice - And major service done would be a bonus. Lower tax bracket would also be good. So I think it would be pre-06 models? (Correct me if I'm wrong here) Modifications - I'd prefer it if there are some mods done already. Nothing major. Things like exhaust, decat/HFC, sound system, wheels, bumper, spoiler etc would be nice. A definite bonus would be to find a azure zed which doesn't have the standard bumper. Something like the Nismo V2 bumper would be amazing. But would consider others. Let me know what you have guys. No set budget yet, but I will stretch my funds for the right car. Thanks everyone.

Boo Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 heres mine http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3784617.htm Nice zed mate, just that I'm not the biggest fan of the Veilside kit. Good luck with the sale though. Anyone have an Azure zed they're considering to sell? I've got a budget of around £8-9k, but will stretch if the car has a good spec.

glrnet Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Mileage is over but the way it's been looked after (everyone who knows Vikki on here will confirm that) it'll be better than most sub 50k cars viewtopic.php?f=56&t=60222&hilit=saffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a very nice and clean car. But I was hoping that I'd be able to find one with a different bumper, such as a Nismo bumper - In all honesty, I don't like the standard front bumper. Hopefully there will be someone that comes across this thread and would consider selling up, if not... I'll just have to settle for something like Vikki's car. The thing which still shocks me is that there's only ever a few zeds for sale on here.. people seem to love their zeds a lot. (Which is a good thing.. in a way) You consider a roadster? Would prefer a coupe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Just one thing, if you want Azure don't settle for GM, I very nearly gave up but when I was looking decent Zeds were hard to come by, now there are all over the place, but unfortunately because of this there are also some right dogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 There are no post facelift Azures That depends on which facelift your referring to There are MY06 Azure zed's, which was the first facelift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen either GM or Azure in reality.. Only photos on here.. I guess I need to see both before I decide.. Is there no one on here that I could tempt into selling their zed?

I would defo choose azure over gm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 I have to say mate... if you saw viks car in the flesh... you wouldnt be settling... you would be in love. I have had a silver 350z aswell as a matt orange one. I would defo choose azure over gm I have no doubt that Viks car is amazing from just looking at the photos. There's just 2 things which I have to put into consideration when buying a zed; I honestly dislike the standard bumper.. There's just something that puts me off it. So if I were to buy a zed with the standard bumper, I'd have to find a bumper such as the Shine Nismo N2 replica which costs £1k+, then spray it and install it. This alone would put the car near the £10k mark. As well as this, the distance isn't the greatest thing either.. Fife is 8hrs drive away from me. Of course, if the there were no other choices, I'd still travel that distance... but the car will end up costing £10k+ very easily. That's the reason why I'm still waiting around to see if there are any other people which are wanting to sell up. If there's still nothing in a few weeks time, there's no doubt that I'd go with Vik's car, especially after hearing so many good things about it. I know good zeds don't hang around, but for now it's just not the best option for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Fair play mate I totally understand.... I changed the look of my old zed a few times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 Fair play mate I totally understand.... I changed the look of my old zed a few times I bet the process of changing the looks of the zed several times left quite a big dent in your wallet! Hopefully I don't get into one of those phases when I finally buy one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
