tomble22 Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Hi all, New member here! I'm currently in the market for a 350z and trying to do my homework. Am down in Cornwall and unfortunately there isn't much about down here! Previously had a Primera GT and a Golf VR6 but then unfortunately had to move to the world of small engine economic motoring for a while (Renault Twingo). Fortunately I'm now back in the land of the drivers cars! Am looking for a 2006/07 zed, possibly in red, but still undecided on that at the moment. Cheers, Tom Quote
hensh65 Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 If you are looking at paying the increase in tax then study up in the difference between the 06 and 07 rev-up and the HR. Quote
WhackyWill Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Welcome to The Forum. The extra tax is a pint of beer a week or two tanks of fuel over a year..for a better car..no brainer really.. :surrender: Quote
johnny cobra Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Good luck with your search . And welcome I love cornwall Falmouth ..... JC Quote
350zedd Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Welcome along go for an 07 HR...you know you want to! Quote
tomble22 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Posted August 11, 2014 Hi all, Thanks for the welcomes! One thing I would like to know (have yet to test drive a Z), are they comfortable enough for those over 6ft? I'm 6ft 3 and tried out a Boxster S at the weekend...couldn't feel my legs after 20 minutes! Have seen a nice red one in Cardiff, 2006 with 80k (ish) miles for £6.5...does that seem a bit cheap or about right? I see there is an Exeter meet coming up, if I'm in the area I may pop along, possibly even in a Z by then!! Cheers, Quote
GMballistic Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Welcome aboard Tom. Price for that 06 seems about right for the mileage but cheap for the year ~ any links to the sale? is it at a garage in Cardiff? Quote

Hi, Link below: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201406205175518/sort/default/quicksearch/true/advert-type/Classified/usedcars/page/1/onesearchad/used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew/radius/200/model/350_z/postcode/tr148ty/make/nissan?logcode=p Seems like a tidy example tbh but the price just seemed a little low, i'm no expert though!!

Tom On the face of it Tom that looks like a good buy tbh. I'd definitely ring to see if they have any more info they can give you about it like what's the history like? e.g. was it Nissan dealer serviced? good independent? what mileage/age where the services done? have the spark plugs been changed? Here's the service schedule for the 350Z to see the sort of things that should have been done depending on mileage/years: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/31110-service-schedule-for-a-350z/ Good price for an 06 and worth a look imo.
