For the amount of miles you will be doing I'd not be looking at a Z unless you have a good bit of spare £££££ each month. If you actually want to enjoy the car you'd be spending over £400 a month in fuel no problem. I average 200 to 250 miles to a tank and thats costing £90 each fill up. I've just bought a second car for this reason as I'm doing a similar millage to you each month and I can't justify how much I was spending on fuel.

Thanks guys, I'll be sad to see it go but I really need to scratch the turbo itch before settling down with something sensible as I'm planning on buying a house after I've got this fast car thing out my system I'll upload some interior pictures and pictures of the side skirt when I get the chance. Yea GM I've finally made my mind up this time, I'll still be hanging around this forum after the sale, I've made some good friends on here. I'm really excited about my next purchase and will post more info on it as and when it happens

I'm finally going ahead with my plans of getting something turbo to use on the weekends, I've just bought a daily driver so the 350Z is now up for sale. . UK spec with just over 70,000 miles on the clock . Exedy clutch and lightweight flywheel fitted 5,000 miles ago . Kumho ku39 tyres with plenty of tread left . 9 months MOT This car has been my pride and joy for the last 16 months and has never missed a beat, it's wanted for nothing and I've always ran it on shell v power. Unfortunately I managed to misplace the service history when moving house recently but I still have receipts for the clutch and flywheel. The car had full history when I bought it with 57,000 miles on the clock and since owning it I've had it serviced twice with the recommended oils and fluids bought from CS (cougar store) on this forum. It also had the spark plugs replaced recently again purchased from cougar store, I'm sure he would vouch for this if needed. It has the usual stone chips on the front bumper and a slight mark on the side skirt from a scrape with a high curb, I will get the side skirt fixed if the asking price is met. Please send me a PM if you're interested. Priced for forum members at £5,500.

I've got a UK one in silver, great condition and been well looked after with 70,000 miles. Haven't got around to putting up a for sale add but PM me if interested. I'm looking for around 5,600

Litteraly just spoke to Codel via PM, very interested but obviously I need to shift my Z first. My for sale post will be up tonight.

I seen a brilliant 200sx for sale on the sxoc forum last week but it sold within days. It looks like 6 grand can get a very nicely moddified one with 300 + BHP. Once the Z goes I'll be in no hurry to buy so can wait until something special pops up and have the cash waiting

I've been doing some pretty heffty millage in the Z and after spending close to 500 in fuel alone last month I've decided enough is enough and I've just bought a little run about to get to work and back. It's a 1.1 fiesta and the car was in the family, I paid next to nothing for it and it's taxed and MOT'd for nearly a year. The Z will be going up for sale in the next few days so keep an eye out as I'll be putting it up for a very fair price on here. The money is going to one side while I save up the extra for something a little special to use on the weekends! Decided it's a good time to scratch the turbo itch as many of you know I've been thinking about doing this for a while now. I really like the idea of getting a drift spec 200sx, 300 + BHP and ready to track or possibly a modded R33 GTS-T. I'll be hanging about here whatever happens as this is buy far the best car forum I've ever been a part of. I'll update this thread as and when the ball gets rolling on this.

yes but how many innocent civillians have we killed over the years in the middle east? What have we gained from it? The only reason we interfere over there is for financial gain anyway, it's no wonder they hate us. It's scary how rife properganda is in todays age and how people still lap it up. I still think ISIS need stopped but you have to consider why they exist in the first place. No armed forces have started out with the sole intention of killing innocent civilians, unlike the above atrocities. I agree, in some cases financial or economic gain is the hidden agenda, most likely (i.e Iraq), but, what possible financial gain do we have from invading Afghanistan? Same if we were to move into Syria. Isis doesnt exist because of the West, they are killing their own ffs! I'm not saying they exist soley because of hate for the west. My point is the west have helped create the cess pool over there in which these extremists grow. We overthrew the dictator, armed them to the eyeballs and pretty much left them to it. I am not sure i agree, extremists want a cause to fight against, otherwise being an extremist would be pretty dull, the west is just a good target to address their hatred because our ways/beliefs/lifestyle is so very different to their ways/beliefs/lifestyle and pretty much everything they despise! The problem is as far as i can tell, in all of these countries, it is a "minority of extremists" which terrorise they own and set out to over throw the peaceful population in the name of Islam, so, can we just sit back and watch this happen when it would seem the majority (of whatever country) want peace? In reality it was no different to Hitler and his Nazis wanting a Aryan race (master race) and all others were considered undesirable and any opposing this were immediately suppressed. Would anyone now say, should have left him and the Nazis to it, its not our problem? Regardless, drifting very off topic, lay the blame at any ones feet if you feel blame needs apportioning (not aimed at you particularly), there is absolutely no excuse for beheading an innocent man who has only gone to offer his aid to a troubled country! If you dont like us, cool no problem, pick up your weapons and fight, cowardly acts show them up for nothing more than the scum they are imho. I don't disagree with any of that actually, Infact your last point is a very strong one I still don't think the west is innocent in all of this but that doesn't contradict anything you've said.

Also @ stevo... I had the same attitude for a long time mate and it got me nowhere. I've met someone who has completely changed the way I think about relationships and regained my trust, their are still decent people out there, just few and far between unfortunately

I was single for 2 years and couldnt bring myself to do the whole online thing. It's just cringe and I'd not be able to take anyone seriously that I met that way. Ended up meeting someone in the real world this year and I'm glad I didnt bother with those sites.

I've only had one days gameplay on this and I'm up to level 9. This game is not at all what I expected but it's still good fun. Any advice to a noob? Anything in particular I should be doing this early on in the game?

I'm 29 and have only just moved out. Should have done it years ago to be honest, I could never go back home now. It's so much better being independant, tho I'm broke all the time

haha get in.... Never thought you were the sort. I always imagined you as a wise old man for some reason

Not sure I can get into that. Yea it's not to everyones taste, thought I'd throw it out there as a bit of a wild card

Really?? If so I presume thats because of the extra torque and after 100mph the HR would walk it? The Zed won't get to over 100 mph on the drag strip That was my point.... the quater would be up after 100mph
