Brian_basildon Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 (edited) Hello, just joined. After many years some time back with a special and loved 220hp Opel Monza coupe, I have wanted a 370z for some time but family etc...... After coming across one this week, the wife has suddenly got very interested in them but I would be allowed to drive it sometimes! She only has concerns that the lowness and flat floor might give her troubles getting in and out - her present car is a sit up and beg variety. The Monza wasn't a problem (younger then) but I suspect the compactness of say a MX5 would be. Basildon Nissan haven't one in and don't know any dealers that might have, (not helpful at all really), so would any kind enthusiast within easy travelling of Basildon Essex contact me so that we might meet up for my wife to actually sit in one and look at the gorgeous looks. Trying to strike while the iron is hot! If suitable, I would probably be going for one around 2 to 4 years old, and the auto/paddle shift gears - our current utility car is Skoda with DSG gearbox, but the model just to see isn't important - its just the driver/passenger driving position/in/out stuff. Brian Thanks if anyone can do. Edited September 14, 2013 by DoogyRev Removed Phone Number - This is a public forum Quote

Wayne370Z Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 Hi and welcome. Sorry we`re too far away to be of any use in letting you try it but I can tell you that the wife does think it`s too low and definitely wouldn`t be a car of choice for her but then she did pick a Vauxhall Mokka to be extra high up and get 50 odd mpg. She says it can be awkward to get in and out depending on how much room there is at the side and insists on a cushion for longer journeys as the seats so low. I on the other hand think it`s excellent and have no regrets getting it at all. Quote
Will370z Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 Welcome, would love to help but a wee bit far away im afraid Quote
Suits Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 Hey man, I'm in Brentwood, just down the road. I have a Le Mans Blue 370Z. PM me, we can sort something out . Quote
14N Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Hello and to the forum. Hopefully be congratulating you on a new 370Z shaped purchase soon Quote
KyleR Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 I'm sure the 350z seating will be nearly identical, finding a 350 close would be much easier Quote
