What on earth is your problem mate???? Cars that come into my work damaged that need repairing owned by old ladies must have been ragged around to have an accident? Just because this has a bodykit on means it has had the arse ripped out of it. Are you jealous or something? This is a for sale thread, if your interested in the car, and are only interested in being a **** for no apparent reason then theres the door mate your welcome to not post.

What???? OK i cant prove previous owners havent driven this car hard... what 3.5l car hasnt!?!? Im sure theres a video on youtube of zedrush driving it hard through a town centre is there not... Guessing you own a 350z to be on here, do you drive everywhere at 2k revs, 30mph? Im sorry but how a car has previous been driven doesnt exactly affect its value does it as long as its been looked after, please dont try tell me your cars never been driven hard, if it has then i guess you have devaluved it? And as regards to how an accident damaged car will never feel the same again... i work in a bodyshop repairing accident damaged cars! Therefore this stateful is completely untrue we test drive all cars after a repair. You are acting like this car has been smashed to f**k and repaired, it was minor damage not even any damage to the shell, any metal work or any internals or panels what so ever, i bet half the cars on here have been damaged and repaired at some point but the new owners never knew about it... And with regards to price, if i took out say the seats for example i probably would sell it for less, but as far as it goes i believe the car got sold by zedrush to the previous owner for 25k, for it to now be up for 18,000ono (id probably take 16-17k) having lost 7grand in not a lot of time, i think the fact it was damaged and repaired is justified no? Wow i only put it up for sale on here as i thought there would be people interested, not people out to jeopeordise my sale and give me grief? I dont really have time to sit on here defending myself, as ive said anyone interested is welcome to come and test drive and you will see there are no issues with the car whatsoever.

yeah i bought it when i realised it wernt as bad as i thought it did look bad!!! but it really wasnt, i think its because when fiberglass gets damaged it makes things look a lot worse. Like i said anyone who is interested is welcome to come and have a look for yourself and see the standard of repair, if anyone have heard of xquisite automotive they will know they are top quality
-
i dont have the repair invoices mate if i did i would post them up, anyone interested is welcome to give a call to xquisite who done the repairs and ask them what was done. Im not being dishonest??? I saw the car when it was damaged, driving past it looked bad as the bumper and arch where cracked and the wheel was damaged. It wasnt buckled/flat, it was just damaged on the edge, but repairable. Anyone welcome to test drive if you prove insurance there is nothing i am trying to hide. Julian from Garage D is the one who looked over it and got the wheel repaired for the previous owner, a very trustyworth person in the game, as is K from xquisite. What bad history does this car have that everyone knows? Many many cars are involved in minor accidents and repaired, doesnt make the car any less of what it is if its repaired to a very high standard? Your acting like im trying to pull a fast one?? As said, anyone welcome to come view the car or test drive with proof of insurance The car is worth 18k in my eyes, would cost incredbile amounts more to build (ask Zedrush!!) and nowdays you cant import over a Veilside Kit for less than about 5-6grand which import taxs etc. Rare opportunity to own a genuine veilside 350z they dont come around for sale often, and as far as im aware the previous owner bought it from zedrush for £25k recently, i feel 18k is a fair asking price..

i bought it off the guy who damaged it, it really wasnt bad, literally the front bumper needed repairing and the passanager side front arch needed repairing (the plastic fender not the wing) and that was it. i have an invoice from the previous owner for the wheel refurb, which as you can imagine was around £70, and Xquisite done repaire work on the bumper and arch which if i know K it would of cost a £300-400, if it was serious then bumper and arch wouldnt of been repairable as they are fiberglass and just shatter if damage is too bad, and there would of been suspension damage but there wasnt. It looked worse than it was when i saw it, but that was just because fiberglass is a bit messy when cracked! But it was nothing worse then your average slow speed bump, just so happens that fiberglass cracked whereas plastic would flex more and not crack as easy. Someone has offered me an M3 plus cash, but i think id rather just sell up and clear my debts! So im offering it you guys as most of you probably know the car quite well!

Pics added now It did have some damage to the passanger side front bumper and arch, both were cracked but got fully repaired by xquisite automotive, wasn't that bad or it wouldnt of been repairable, also the wheel was damaged but was refurbed and caused no suspension damage. Was nothing serious and a quick repair done to the highest standard by the best bodyshop around. Not its not a cat D/C, it would take an awful lot more than just a cracked arch and bumper to write off a 2005 350z!!!

One of the very few GENUINE veilside v3 full kitted 350z's in the UK Used be owned by Zedrush on here, many of you probably know the car This is NOT a replica kit like many you see for sale, and i will prove this if you come view the car as there are a fair few ways how to spot whether a kit is fake or genuine and i cant stand people with replica kits trying to pass them off as genuine. Anyway Spec list: 2005 Nissan 350z GT UK model 3.5 V6 Engine Black 24k miles Tax - December 2010 MOT - April 2011 Full Veilside V3 geuine kit; bumpers, skirts, arches, spoiler Carbon fiber bonnet Volks racing 19" wheels Coilovers Red Bride seats Kenwood Double Din touchscreen DVD player K1 twin exhaust exhaust (V6 engine sounds incredible through this) Carbon Eyebrows Carbon engine bay covers Cone air filter Plenum spacer Wizards of NOS kit installed Veilside Dials Snap off 'personal' steering wheel This car is absolutley incredible, you cannot drive anywhere without getting attention from everyone around you, not just the due to the way it looks but also the way it sounds. Id imagine if you are reading this you will know all about the Veilside 350z so i dont think i need to write much more about it apart from that this car really is perfect, always starts first time and runs like an absolutle dream, in a completley different league to anything ive ever owned, but beware if you do not like attention this car is NOT for you!! £18,000 ono Any questions please call me (Adam) 07875765919

everythings fixed, xquisite automotive done the bodywork, and the wheel wasnt as bad as it looked and was repaired with new tyres, perfectly round no issues

I dont think theres an issue with people selling replica's also as they are stated as replica's, and people know what they are buying and know there is a high chance of bad fitment/quality (not saying all replica's are like this, but its just common knowledge) Most people can spot a replica or a genuine part instantly anyway if they are interested in said part. What really gets to me is the people who buy fakes, but say they are real. And even more annoying people selling their car and lying about the prts being real. For example ive seen 2 z's on pistonheads recently advertising real veilside kits, when you can spot a mile off that they are copies. Nothing wrong with a copied kit, but its not the same, looks slightly different, and not fair to advertise as genuine when clearly not. -
the way round it then is to put an upgraded aftermarket ECU in such as omex 600? This would stop the ecu resetting it self, allow you to have a full live custom remap aswell, and plenty other features. Normally around £1600 to supply fit and map an aftermarket ecu like this. Only thing i dont know is what hassle it will be fitting to the Z engine, the standard ECU might not allow piggybacking. But people who turbo their Z's should be doing it so cant see there being a problem.

Hey dude, travel to xquisite automotive in croydon, you wont regret it one bit. they wont let a job out that is less than 110% perfect. check their website www.xquisiteautomotive.com for proof of work also they have just built my car and the quality is incredbile to say the least, plus the fact they churn out trophy winning cars and magazine cover cars left right and centre. give them a call
