Grundy Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 All depends what you're after buddy. Import or UK model Gt or Non GT spec (Brembo Breaks, Heated Leather Seats, Bose speakers etc.) Mileage? You'll be able to pick a nice JDM Import model for that money, they go for 4-5.5k. Fairly low miles. For a UK GT you may get lucky you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the welcome guys ,I do like having all the toys tbh, but I know there will be a compromise with my budget, its the things to check when im viewing that id like to be aware of.. Ive just sold an Audi A3 and if id knew how unreliable and flakey they were id of never of bought it.. Im thinking Nissan are pretty bullet proof??

Grundy Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 At the end of the day, any car can be bullet proof, as long as it's been looked after (FSH Etc) But yeah these cars are pretty solid, treat them right and they will treat you right. Many Import owners upgrade all there breaks/seats etc - so you will see a few for sale with all the toys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky4510 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Welcome mate. I brought my first Z on the weekend, cost me £5k, UK GT with 72k on the clock, it does however need a little tlc but nothing major, there are bargains so keep hunting and I'm sure you will find your perfect Z. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
