well, don't think that matters when you are selling the car but will need to buy new plates rather using the old ones. Sounds like DVLA listed them as for sale and someone bought it.

Thanks guys!!

Being treated with a private number plate for the first time but not sure what to do after I've swapped them to my car......I'm sure many of you have private plate on your car and has swapped them many times hence I'm hoping you could shade some light here. The gift comes with service from the company to transfer it to my vehicle, so I just need to send them my documents and they'll sort it out and send me new number plates. Do I automatically retain the current number plate that is on the vehicle? ie if I sell the vehicle, I can apply to swap it back to the car? Assuming I'm still hunting for replacement car, do I need to do anything with my private number plate? or can I just wait until I found a replacement and do the swap? Everything is done online via DVLA website? Any do's and don'ts will be much appreciated Many thanks Veegee

I got my replacement from Zmanalex, DIY is possible if you are confident (Took me 5 hours in total). Make sure you download and print out the torque and tightening sequence to reassemble everything back together. Bolts on the plenum have different length hence labeling them up as you remove will help when you assemble it back.

1. What do I look out for during my inspection? - Rust around wheel arches, oil leaks & rad fan are the main ones that I can think of 2. How can I tell if this car was look after? Good service history and MOT history. 3. If we identify issues or works to be done, What would be a reasonable offer without offending the owner? Depends on what needs doing really, biggest issue will be rust, can cost £1000++ to sort out properly 4. Are they worth and do they hold its value? Zed has gone up in value recently due to boom in 2nd hand car market and I suspect it will go down once the issue is sorted (electronics components shortage leading to long lead time for brand new car). For this, i think zed's value are based on market rather than being a rare car/soon to be classic. Good luck in your hunt.

Turns out I can't attach video 🤦‍♂️

Sold my zed 5/6 weeks ago. New owner just had an issue with electronics in the car, he's not in the forum hence asking on his behalf. When he gets into the car, turn key to 'On' position. Windows works sometimes, but not all the time. When engine is fired up, windows doesn't work at all. Engine off, key to 'on' position - Lock (on the door latch) on the driver side is fighting to lock/unlock. Can't remember which way but if it is locked, when he tried to unlock it, it will automatically lock it back. And sometimes makes a loud 'beep' sound. And the lock/unlock button above window up/down buttons doesn't work. Car started fine and drives normal, just issue with windows and lock. I installed the auto folding side mirrors around 18months ago, never had an issue hence I ruled that out. And I've not seen any issues reported here as well hence confident nothing to do with the module as he can still fold/unfold the mirror as it should. I had new battery put on the zed (2 months old now), but don't think this is the issue as the car starts and drives OK. No issue at all when this is installed 2 months ago. Any help/guidance/pointers will be much appreciated to help out new owner. Note: Missing my zed when i saw my old zed in the video he sends about this issue

I take it no one with OCD was present on the day 😝

+2 for Lockwood and Greenwood. I drove 45mins to them for big jobs (ABS module and clutch + flywheel)as they definitely knows their way around a 350z.

Car now sold 😭 Not once I've seen my zed being driven away by someone else. Sounded pretty awesome !!!!!

SOLD at full asking price 😃 - Mods please lock this, many thanks!

Unfortunately sale was cancelled as potential buyer choose a V8 over a V6 😁. Can't blame him 😎

Yep, sad day indeed. Only if I have a spare space for it 😢

Car potential sold mate. New owner might come picking it up tomorrow or Thursday. Making arrangements as we speak 🤞

Whilst I change a new battery, why not refurb the battery brace as well since I have spare primer and black spray paint left from wiper job.
