focusst Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 I'm not having much luck with my search for a 350z at the moment. I dont suppose anyones heard of Maundrell Co Ltd? They've got a good looking car on Autotrader (looks like its an import) for £13950 Hope I'm not being too cheeky asking for help but I really dont wanna get ripped off Cheers Quote
Zedrush Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Looks like a good deal especially with the Brembo's might have Xenon lights too. See if you can get him down to 13300 and spend 200 on RAC to check ito out before you buy Quote
Chesterfield Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 You certainly arent being cheeky asking for help - thats one of the main points of the forum. There are plenty of import owners on the site, so they will be able to advise what to look for (documentation etc). Other items to look for common to all Z's are in the FAQ section. Quote
Sarnie Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Would be good if you could find out what version it is? E.g T, ST etc Quote
sl114 Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Yes that is an import mate. Prices seem low now! Eeek not good for me Quote
focusst Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 Its a Fairlady ST spec I believe. Is that the equivilent to the GT spec then? Quote
focusst Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 And thanks for everyones help by the way. Seriously appreciate it :teeth: Quote
Zedrush Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Yes that is an import mate. Prices seem low now! Eeek not good for me you will be fine yours is UK Quote
Sarnie Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Its a Fairlady ST spec I believe. Is that the equivilent to the GT spec then? I think it is, yeah Where is that car? Is it far from you? I'd get yourself down there for a peek! Quote

I'd get yourself down there for a peek! Its 140 miles away but that wouldn't bother me Really got my heart set on a Z now Quote
Sarnie Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Just found it on Autotrader. Who said it was an ST? From the ad there is no leather seats, no heated seat buttons and no steering wheel controls. I'm no JDM expert, I'm sure someone who knows all the specs will be along in a moment...... Quote

I'm no JDM expert, I'm sure someone who knows all the specs will be along in a moment...... Its not an ST by the looks of it. Id say its an S, they have brembos but not the leather. The T (tourer i think) has the cruise control, leather seats and bose. The ST is similar to our GT pack Quote
focusst Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 Sorry. Think thats me being a newb :blush: Waiting for the guy to confirm the spec level now. Quote
Stew Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Ask someone near the trader to have a look. I'm sure someone will do it for you! Any excuse for a peek at another Zed! If you see any near me then give me a shout as I'd be happy to look at it! Quote

If you see any near me then give me a shout as I'd be happy to look at it! Thats a very good idea and something we have been doing on Uk Supras for a good few years. There's bound to be someone lives quite near the dealer and they may be quite clue'd up too. Quote
nixy Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Yep it's an S. But you could have the seats done in leather yourself. Quote
focusst Posted May 22, 2007 Author Posted May 22, 2007 To be honest I dont like leather seats. Had them in an ST220 once and couldn't get used to it at all. Is the cloth trim not good then? Quote
nixy Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 I'm sure it's fine - just most prefer leather I suppose. If you're happy with cloth that's even easier! Quote

Im like you, i hate leather with a passion, it just doesnt feel right and in summer when i drive with no pants on, the seats burn my bum Quote
Zedrush Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 cloth is good, for for resale value it shifts quicker if leather Quote
sl114 Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 cloth is good, for for resale value it shifts quicker if leather Exactly what i am finding at the moment! Quote
Zedrush Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 cloth is good, for for resale value it shifts quicker if leather Exactly what i am finding at the moment! I think the fact that you drive it with no underpants on kinda is an offput too Quote
AndyC Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Doesn't look like its got a Thatcham alarm mate (only mentions it on the immobiliser), you may struggle to get insurance without one. That said, it would only be a couple of ton to get one put on, but may be another bargaining tool Quote
