radjordan Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 New to the forum and thinking about getting a 350z I'm sure this question has been asked many times buy I could find a definite answer. Now my question is iv found a nice one that's pretty cheap but has 110k on the clock and a few little marks and the wheels new a reverb really but I was wondering if there is anything I should be worried about its a 04 plate . Thanks for any advice. Quote
GMballistic Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Mileage is probably about average for the age of the car I'd have thought. Personally I think as long as the Zed has been well maintained & followed the correct service schedule as well as been run on Super Unleaded for most of it's life time then it should be ok. There is of course always the exception to that rule if the previous owners are nutters who redline their cars from every junction/set of traffic lights etc. Abuse a car and somethings going to give eventually. 350Z service schedule here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/31110-service-schedule-for-a-350z/ 1 Quote
radjordan Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 Thanks for the quick advice. Yeah gonna go for it I think. Drove great . Quote
JetSet Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Yeah, engines and serviceable parts are good for high mileage, Like any 11 year old car with that sort of mileage things can go wrong though and I've seen far too many people on here recently buy 350's because they're cheap and only keeping them a few months because of the running costs.

Best of luck! Quote
radjordan Posted February 11, 2015 Author Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) Thanks yeah think I'm going to get this 04 one. Quick question in the center arm reSt buy there is a little holder for something with a cable coming from it. Any ideas what that is? Also only has one key. Can I get a second one easly.?

ilogikal1 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Bluetooth cradle. You'll need the module that clips into it which come up for sale on occasion on here, no doubt on popular auction sites as well. It doesn't work with every phone any more though (most still do), so it may be a waste of money to buy a module. Quote
radjordan Posted February 11, 2015 Author Posted February 11, 2015 Oh handy I thought it maybe something like that. Thanks. Quote

radjordan Posted February 12, 2015 Author Posted February 12, 2015 Any thoughts on the key? I guess there all coded and such are they? Quote
ZMANALEX Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Good luck with your purchase, however I would have thought that you would have been better checking out more important items other than a key and a phone cable. Read the buyers guide thoroughly. 1 Quote
radjordan Posted February 12, 2015 Author Posted February 12, 2015 Yeah iv checked out lots of the other stuff by looking at other post I just couldn't find the answers to those things. Sorry. Quote
