Gus-350z Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hi guys, just a quick one. Thinking about going to go and have a look at this one as it's pretty near to me, has anyone seen it before or have any comments on the listing? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201512159460446?sort=default&model=350_z&make=nissan&postcode=dh14rd&page=3&search-target=usedcars&quicksearch=true&onesearchad=used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew&radius=1500&logcode=p First thoughts are that there aren't many pictures, but seems like a good price for the milage, and new tyres. Any thoughts will be very much appreciated! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonCool Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) Don't know the car. Hmm.. no mention of a new clutch (which is due at 60-70k). Unmatched tyres are also a bad sign but he's put jolly good ones on the back, which is the main thing I suppose. No interior shots? If you go and see it (which costs nothing!) you can check the leather and interior. Obviously, you need to check the paperwork (if there is any). I live in Darlington and I have just had my 03 (80k) serviced by Falcon and it is running superbly so if you want to pop over one evening we can go for a blat and I'll run through what the car was like when I got it and what work I have had done on it in the last 2 and a bit years and what it cost etc. Edited January 27, 2016 by DonCool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyndzzz Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hi Gus, I'd be looking at the service history, low(ish) miles mean nothing with irregular or poor servicing! Don I'm on 94k miles and on the original clutch and it's still pretty spot on!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll definitely go and have a look when I get a moment, maybe at the weekend, as you say, it can't do any harm! I'd absolutely love to take you up on the offer for a quick blast and a chat! If you let me know when you're free, hopefully we can organise something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetpilot Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Clutches seem to vary massively, all depends how its been driven, definitely worth considering a fund to allow if its not been done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
