  1. Hi, do we know if Simply Jap 2019 is happening regarding the Z club?
  2. Hello and welcome. Are you going to Simply Jap at Beaulieu? Sunday 28th July. Should be a good turnout
  3. Cheers Umster, that's very helpful. No, my car is basically standard apart from the exhaust and air intakes, so no problem with roughish roads. Thanks again.
  4. Thanks very much for that. Sounds like the place to go. How does it work? Do you leave the car with them and pick it up later or is there any where around to kill a few hours while you wait?
  5. Hi Stan, I cant help with the Mustang, looks like marzman is the man for that, but they do look amazing. Regarding the 370Z, I have had mine for nearly a year and I have loved and am loving every minute of it. The sound, the reliability, the looks and the performance are all exceptional. I use mine every day to and from work and I love it. I have owned some pretty amazing cars in my time and I thought that "proper" car ownership was over when I bought my Vauxhall Corsa and then a Ford Fiesta. Then like you, I suddenly thought, Sod it, I am not enjoying this. I am 57, yes mid-life crisis it may be but I have always loved the Z, I had a 260Z back in the 80's and always loved the 350Z and then the 370Z. Now I own a 2012 370Z GT Edition with just 6000 miles on the clock It is mint and I totally love it. Cant see this one going for quite some time yet. Regarding the Maserati, DONT DO IT!!! I worked for the local Maserati/Ferrari dealership for 14 years and saw the Maserati progress from the 3200 to the present. They have come a long way and they are a lot better. There is no better start up roar than the Gran Turismo and they do drive very well but and as you have said the repair/servicing costs are astronomical. I was on 1st name terms with a lot of customers purely because there car was always in for something or other. Even if you can find a cheaper labour rate the parts are very very expensive and things like brakes and steering don't last very long. In my opinion and it is only my opinion go for the Z Enjoy deciding.
  6. Hi, my 2012 370Z GT Edition is due a service and MOT at the end of this month. I live in Southampton and would be interested to hear where you take your Z's in this area. I don't really want to go main dealer though. Cheers.
  7. Hi, technophobe here. I have just been trying to change my Avatar but without success. Would somebody please put me out of my misery and explain in idiot terms how I go about it please
  8. Yep, I should be OK. Hopefully it wont be a washout this time Payco NickC Silverhorn Killick.z pagan snowy87
  9. Cheers for that Mine is the same as yours was originally, although my compressor is missing. I suppose if you have the tyre "repair" fluid, then there is no need for a jack.
  10. Hi everyone, I have a 2012 Black GT Edition 370Z. I noticed when cleaning the boot out that there seems to be quite a lot of empty compartments in there. I have the bose equipment with no spare wheel. I have a wheel nut spanner, some tyre sealant and a towing eye. What else should there be in there please? Cheers.
  11. Me the same. I love it, the wife says No.
  12. Hi and welcome along. Enjoy your new car
  13. Cheers for that, I will do my best. I hope you guys have a good meet to. Don't forget the photos
  14. Sorry but I wont be able to make Saturday as its my Birthday and the missus is taking me to get my surprise!!!! Enjoy the view and the burger
  15. Yep, I am only up the road in Southampton, so let me know if any meets are planned. As long as we don't talk about football
  16. Hi, thanks for the thread. I am from Southampton and was about to post a similar question. 370Z specialists do seem to be a bit rare. Still, its quite a nice run up the A34 to Newbury when the time comes
  17. I am very jealous. How did you manage to get that photo? I love the Vulcan
  18. Here she is. Obviously a bit longer than the 240Z being a plus 2. The things you do when you are young...……….spot lights??……….Stripes?? Used to be a coal merchant, hence the piles of the black stuff in the background. Good luck with yours now back to the thread.
