Topcat Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) The Car Nissan 350z 2004 UK model In Azure Blue with GT pack 64,500 miles Tax until end of August 2013 MOT until end of Feb 2014 Most modifications were on the car when I bought it 12 months ago. Since then I have spent around £2,000 on further modifications (dates included in brackets). Exterior Nismo V2 replica front bumper with Cannards (Dec 2011). Gio Cuzzo replica rear spoiler (Dec 2011). Black Door handles and Z badges. 18' Rays Engineering alloys in Black. Stumpy S2000 Aerial. 2007 model LED rear lights. Carbon Fibre B Pillars. Interior Usual GT pack equipment, Heated leather seats, Cruise control, Built in sat nav etc. Custom door builds with uprated front FLI intergrator 6 speakers. Sony Double-Din Touchscreen DVD head unit (May 2012). Leather gear gaiter with blue stitching (Dec 2011). New boot mat with blue stitching (Dec 2011). Rear Boot Strut sprayed to match bodywork (Dec 2011). Mechanical BC racing fully adjustable suspension (Lowered 10mm). Scorpion Cat back exhaust. Japspeed race manifolds. 20mm rear spacers. Varta blue Top battery (Dec 2011). Service History Oct 2004: 12,916 miles Feb 2005: 22,127 Aug 2006: 27,167 Oct 2007: 32,441 Nov 2008: 36,757 Feb 2010: 45,710 Aug 2011: 60,398 Mar 2012: 62,585 Mar 2013: 66,100 Car has always been run on Shell V-Power Always thoroughly warmed up before being driven spiritedly. Starts first time everytime, idles well and revs smoothly. The bodywork is in good condition, with no rust, and spotless alloys. A few small stone chips at the front, and other minor details that are only visible on close inspection, as to be expected on an 8 year old car. I have washed and waxed most fortnights and treated the leather several times in the 12 months I have had it. In the last year I have had both camshaft sensors replaced with new ones as they both threw up engine lights. Oil change and new denso iridium spark plugs at last service. I've had the rear brake pads replaced last week. Front tyres are Falken 452's and only covered 2,000 miles. Rear tyres are Pirelli P zero's and will require changing in the near future. Really don't want to see this car go but have a baby on the way soon so needs must. Priced at £8,750 ONO I will take nearest offer if i don't achieve this price over the next few weeks. I think £9500 is fair with the cost of mods on the car and it's condition. Test drives only with proof of fully comp insurance. I'm based just outside derby, so pretty easy access for most areas of the country. PM me or email to, <!-- e -->t_alldread@hotmail.com<!-- e --> I will also consider any part exchange you may have. Some pics from today. Edited April 2, 2013 by Topcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topcat Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 I've only recently noticed that both front tyres are worn on the inside but have full tread on the outside, so would require new fronts and an alignment. New price to reflect this. £8750 ono Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topcat Posted December 9, 2012 Author Share Posted December 9, 2012 This place in Mansfield, gave my quite a decent price although was waiting on him for a while to get the job done, but i was pleased with the work he did. Funny some of the 'offers' i've had on ebay, I think it's a bargain at £8,000 but i guess it's the wrong time of year to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 It's a spot on match. A lot of companies claim "oh we can't match 100%" yet I've seen plenty who have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.C Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 If you don't mind a bit of feedback I would say it's paint looks really spot on but the cars mods are not what everyone wants. It COULD send out the wrong message. The market for a car with so many add ons will be small and you could consider taking all the mods off bar any very subtle ones, sell the bits and try again. I think it's the right colour, it's too expensive but your only ( quite rightly ) trying to re-coop some money. Tone it down, it's just my humble opinion.

Topcat Posted December 10, 2012 Author Share Posted December 10, 2012 Yeah he managed to get a good paint match on it. he also did a good job on the spoiler. it came with a rough finish but he got it smoothed out quite nicely. I know what your saying topcop, but i don't want to go through the hassle of changing everything back to standard. If it doesn't sell, i will just keep it. I personally don't think it's expensive at all. the same car in without any mods are going for a fraction less than i'm offering. I think alot of people see how cheap some are on autotrader etc and expect that to be the going rate, when alot of them have double the mileage and are imports.

Topcat Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) Now with 12 months MOT and 6 Months tax Passed MOT with no advisories. Pre MOT service- New kinetix performance grooved and dimpled front brake discs with brembo pads 2 new rear anti roll drop links fitted New Gates alternator and air con belts fitted Full oil change with Motul 8100 Eco-nergy K&N performance oil filter This car needs no money spending on it until next MOT. Tyres have covered less than 1000 miles. Just ticked over 66,000 miles Having spent just shy of £1500 since Jan i'm pricing at £8,500 I think this is fairly cheap for a UK GT model in Azure with low mileage the Mods on the car and the recent money spent. I'm in no rush to sell as i'm in a better financial position than last year. I would consider any part exchange with cash my way as i've not decided what i want next yet. PM me on here, If emailing me, please tItle it 350Z in bold so it doesn't get lost in my junk folder, cheers Tom.
