pptom Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I've got a budget of around £12k although spending less means I can spend the extra on the car. I'm looking for either a Gunmetal or Kuro UK car with Alzean leather (these 2 criteria are essential), ideally with Rays in good condition. not too fussed about mileage but I want a car in excellent condition, with full service history including receipts - not just a stamped up book- I don't mind if its Nissan or a specialist, just would rather avoid a back street garage. Essentially I'm looking for an enthusiast owned car, something thats been loved and am not interested in buying from the trade. I will be willing to consider a car with mods, but nothing over the top such as bodykits etc (except maybe factory fit nismo) I live very close to Northampton and would be willing to travel for about 2 hours for the right car. Apart from the for sale section, I've trawled PH, Autotrader and e-bay, but nothing has jumped out as having all of the above. I have the money ready to go as I sold my last car about a month ago and have been travelling around in the works van. Sorry to be so picky, but as I no longer need a car, just want one, I can afford to wait for the right one and not compromise Many thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pptom Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 Thanks, I've been lurking for ages - soaking up information! - its a great forum! I'm finally in a position to take the plunge and can't find anything that fits the bill! Dangerously, in my frustaration, I found myself looking at 370's last night on Nissans site, weighing up finance options - until reality struck.

ATTAK Z Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 have you looked at this ? viewtopic.php?f=56&t=38145 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
350zStephen Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 It looks like a nice example ATTAK Z, but I think he is mainly looking for a UK zed with alzean leather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pptom Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 spot on stephen, I've deeply considered yours, but can't justify the 13hr round trip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 spot on stephen, I've deeply considered yours, but can't justify the 13hr round trip I have seen stephens car many a time and its a gorgeous, well looked after example and defo worth the drive. There are so many dogs out there....... why take the risk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pptom Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 I've decided I'd prefer GM to Black but how rare is Alzean leather with A GM car? Is there a drought in the market at the moment? (I don't want to buy trade either) If I wanted a car with black leather I'd have a choice of some nice examples within about 50 miles, but the only GM/Alzean I've seen was 110 miles away, didn't have Rays and when I phoned the chap had decided not to sell after only having it advertised for 8 days. Patience is a virtue and all that, but if there are currently none advertised, it makes me wonder how long will I have to wait for the right one?

350zStephen Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I would not say GM/Alzean is rare, i've met a few owners that have this combination. I know someone selling a GM zed, with Alzean leather and Rays. I've ordered Irdium platinum spark plugs, new passenger grab handle cover, and a new gear knob for the zed.
