good choice clarkey but man that rear wiper has to go!

^JP^ · 12 Aug 2013 at 11:05

Cool car! And I agree, that wiper is a beast!

Clarkey · 12 Aug 2013 at 11:11

Don't worry, it's card is marked. As are the tango lights, quite fancy the DMax 50/50 ones.

Yeah I won't be paying £200 for a pair of used lights :eek:

I'd rather have standard type anyway, LED is a bit ricey.

How do you find the auto box with the 4 pot engine? I've too been contemplating a e90 but not sure which engine to get.

It works very well actually, it's an excellent autobox though, very smooth, 6 gears and it shifts quite quickly. Of course if you can find the right 6 pot in budget, go for it, if not though, the 2 litre petrol is a surprisingly decent engine, I don't feel short changed or let down by it. It isn't as good as a l6 though obviously, it is a good deal cheaper to acquire though. It's very quiet too which I like, but the noise it does make is actually not typical 4 pot unpleasant, it's actually not bad, it's got a bit of a growl to it, what it doesn't do that the l6's do though is rise to a sonorous crescendo of automotive music when really pushed, it merely sounds ...decent. You can hardly hear the engine at all when driving normally though.

Oh, I thought the e9x 320 still had a 6 cylinder engine... Oh..

Moeks · 13 Aug 2013 at 19:37

Nope, that went out with the E46 I'm afraid. The later version of the E9x 320 actually has a bit more power than the E46 320 had though, at least the 2009+ ones do with 170PS/168bhp, which mine is.

[TW]Fox · 13 Aug 2013 at 20:37

A bit more being 1bhp.

Finally got rid of my silly old TDCi Mk3 Mondeo and got something a little more fun!

It's a 2003 350Z GT. Great condition, in the colour and with the wheels I wanted. Love it

Voicon · 14 Aug 2013 at 18:47

Nice car, that's a consideration for my next car, how well does it drive?

DaveyD · 14 Aug 2013 at 18:57

Very nicely

We have a Celica T-Sport also and the 350Z feels so much more planted. It does sound rather nice at higher rpm too

Clarkey · 14 Aug 2013 at 19:06

Looks tidy, nice buy.

Voicon · 14 Aug 2013 at 19:11

And the road tax is £280 per year because it was registered before March 2006, I was looking at a 58/09 plate and it's £490 a year! :eek:

Janesy B · 14 Aug 2013 at 20:36

That 350Z is pretty in blue.

Yep.

Maybe I should haver said a 'little' bit though.

Voxination · 14 Aug 2013 at 23:25

350Z looks very tidy.

Phil W · 15 Aug 2013 at 10:25

I'd love a 350z, lovely machine!
