TLDR: 350z GT Azure Blue 49k miles £10500 (Tamworth, Staffordshire).
Can't quite believe I'm doing this, I honestly thought I'd be taking this car to the grave, and I may just regret it once it's gone but here it goes....
For sale is my beautiful Azure blue 2005 Nissan 350z with GT spec. Here's a photo I took of it today with 49097 miles on the clock:
Genuine reason for sale, I don't use it how I intended to. Since I purchased it back in 2016 it quickly became a bit of a garage queen, only coming out in the warmer seasons on a sunny day, therefore since ownership I've only done a mere 4000 miles in it! I did plan on using it for a regular commute to work etc but with a rubbish route and paranoia of car park dings I've only taken it a handful of times over the years, and now coupled with spending time with my two young kids I'm barely using it. I've therefore decided to move it to a new owner who I hope will look after it and enjoy it.
I don't like to heavily modify cars, rather just enhance the original awesome design, hopefully that's reflected in what you see in the photos. I do also have most of the original parts (not included in sale but available). Below is the list of modifications, history, and maintenance.

And some from a photoshoot at Japfest (note the rear defuser in the photos is no longer fitted):
Price wise I'm asking £10500 this is to include the personalised number plate. I'm not in a rush to sell it, I'd rather keep it than sell it cheap. Bit cliché but "first to see it will buy it", if you're after a very tidy 350z, well maintained & looked after, in Azure blue and you're happy with the price then you will buy it!
For any further info drop me a message. Car is located near Tamworth, Staffordshire. Tests drives will be done by me, unless you have proof of insurance & funds (and on a dry day of course ha!!). Thanks for looking, Iain.
