wac201 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Want a 2007/08 Roadster preferably in Grey with black leather or even sunset with the orange/black combo interior UK Cars with full Nissan service history and no more than 25k miles (ideally 15k or less really), I have about £17.5k waiting to spend if anyone is looking to sell.......

Greekman Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 2 things m8...... go for the new engine if you can stretch to 20k.... all the way and you will never look back..... Night blue, black and white look absolutely stunning!!! anything else and you may as well buy an audi tt....a good few out there!!! Whites can be done with decals and all sorts and will look awesome (was thinking about it yesterday tbh), blacks look always good and as an owner of a night blue i can assure you i v seen only one at the last wales run but never on the road.... silver, gunmetal and orange are everywhere A roadster with the new engine is quicker than a coupe with the previous engines....madmarky will confirm!!!

wac201 Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 Sound good but I want to buy in the next couple of weeks and that extra £££sis going to be a step too far unfortuntely - did see a stunning night blue with the off-white leather which looked outrageously cool - at a nissan dealer with 10k on the clock and only £18k which I might have stretched to but it got snapped up before I even had time to call! In an ideal world I would love the newer one (bonnet looks very ), how big a diference does the engine make in the new one? Does it put the insurance up at all?

Does it put the insurance up at all? The new engine does make a big difference. You can feel the extra eagerness when putting your foot down.On the insurance front, found it has made no difference at all. Still Group 19 Insurance.

wac201 Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 No-one looking to sell!? Must be an even more impressive car than I firs thought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 350Z Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I know it's cliche but have you looked on Pistonheads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wac201 Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Lol, I think I'm officially Pistonheads and Autotraders most frequent visitor at the moment - at least 10 visits to each of them a day, could do with them setting up some sort of alert function really! Suppose I just need to be patient and play the waiting game for the moment...... I'll get my hands on one eventually! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanski Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 totally unbiased but I agree with Greekman re: NightBlue - come on mate you have to join us as the third Night Blue roadster owner in the club (of course I was first - he he he - just to get that in!) Keep looking ...unfortunately for me but good for you ....prices are still dropping - a few night blue coupe's bobbing about but we want a roadster dont we Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wac201 Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 If a night blue roadster came up I would be all over it, was gutted to miss out on one 3 weeks ago! I'm at the point where I just want to get one now, so will probably settle for the first one that falls into my price bracket (weighing up between a silver 57 with satnav and a twighligt grey 08 without satnav), thing is I'm really unsure on the silver, can look a bit nohingy to me (apologiesfor any offence!).......

Well just see what you like? Both colours look ok on the Zed - its a forgiving shape unlike some but I am biased towards the GM but at least both colours dont show dirt unlike Night Blue or Black that do within minutes of a wash! I think there was someone selling a Night Blue Roadster on here a few weeks ago on an '07 plate - may be worth a search of the forum for Night Blue - wont get many hits but easy search for ya!

rtbiscuit Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 if its of any interest there is a sunset orange roadster for sale near me its a 55 plate currently at £15000, but i'm sure there si room for negotiation. don't know the mileage. this is in suffolk just outside ipswich.

wac201 Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Cheers for all the help guys, to be honest I have set myself on the new engine now so only concentrating on the 07/08 models, wil be nice o have some warranty left for peace of mind too! Hopefully I'll be a fully fledged member of the club soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wac201 Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 Call off the search! Picked up a beautiful universal silver on a 57 plate today! After all I said about not being keen on the silver I fell for itas soon as I saw it. Can't belive the condition it's in, really is showroom worthy! Within the first 5 minutes of owning it I pulled into a garage to fill up (ouch! £££s) and was approached by an admirer of it, turning heads all over the place. Had a nice 2.5 hours drive home with it and as I'm sure it's clear to tell, I couldn't be happier with it - firs Sunday morning clean tomorrow and I can't wait! Cheers for the help and advice - decided to go for the 313 after a lot of sesible talk from members on here so thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wac201 Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 Here you go, needs a clean after a couple of hours of motorway fly-swatting! Didn't find the midnight, got a pretty decent deal though, it's only covered 5k miles and potentially thinking about a respay down the line if i get bored of the colour!
