terribleone Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 The Zed is up for sale again, I managed to acquire a lodger which meant I could afford to keep running the car a little while longer and took it off the market… I'm now back to single occupancy and unfortunately something has to go to make things cheaper!! Firstly I’ll run through the basic details: The car is a UK GT model in Blade Silver. First date of registration is 06/12/2005…apart from a few ‘06’ plates which were registered before March ’06, this is one of the youngest Zeds you can get before falling into the higher tax bracket. Tax is £245/year, rather than paying almost double that for an 06+ model. This model has all the standard GT spec gadgets, with the exception of a factory sat nav. 18†Rays Forged Wheels Brembo Brakes. Heated driver & passenger seats. Electric driver & passenger seats. Air conditioning (Working very well). Cruise control. Bluetooth controls and cradle. (Bluetooth adapter is required to work). The car is taxed until 30/06/2011. The MOT runs out on 23/09/2011. Current mileage is just under 45,000miles. The car has full Nissan service history, with the exception of the last service. This was only a simple P1 service, so I took the car to a local trustworthy garage. Nissan P1 Service @ 9,137 Miles Nissan P2 Service @ 16,595 Miles Nissan P1 Service @ 24,863 Miles Nissan P3 Service @ 33,496 Miles P1 Service @ 41,151 Miles The car is virtually standard with the exception of the following: 20mm Eibach hubcentric spacers on the front. 25mm Eibach hubcentric spacers on the rear. Carbon vinyl wrapped rear strut brace cover. I have just had a brand new Exedy clutch and Fidanza lightweight flywheel fitted. Cost of parts and labour for this was in excess of £800. I have also not long ago replaced all the tyres with Falken FK452s. They’ve only seen a couple of thousand miles since they were fitted and still have 6-7mm tread all round. Spark plugs were changed 5 months ago with some Iridium Denso plugs from ZMANALEX. Brake pads were changed just before I took ownership of the car at the beginning of 2010. Ferodo pads were fitted. The Zed has been very well cared for, always run on super unleaded and is parked tucked under a car port every night. The car drives so nicely, with no cabin rattles and no suspension noises. Pulls very well in all gears, the torque in 3rd and 4th is addictive! The car is up for sale now at £10,299 ONO... Please contact me with any questions you may have either post on here, send a PM or: Email: martinwraight@hotmail.com Mobile: 07531 610892 (Please leave a message if you can’t reach me). I will require proof of insurance before I let you behind the wheel on a test drive, and FYI I am located in Bingham, Nottinghamshire. Now for some pics: Rays are in very good condition: Brand new Falken 452s all round: Long tax…until end of June 2011: Clean boot with carpet covered MDF divider: Carbon vinyl wrapped strut brace cover: Thanks for looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnie Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Nice car and an even better advert! In my opinion, someone who spends time to formulate an advert like that is going to have loved an cherished their car. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebized Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Don't come much better than that (both ad and car ) Shame you are having to sell, your loss is going to be someones gain there. I see it has a tonneau, but not a Nissan one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleone Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 Cheers for the kind words guys, hopefully I'll get more interest this time round!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleone Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 Just working out my year's finances and will have to be very open to offers on the Zed, or I'll be struggling to eat!! I'm going to drop the price to £10,800...feel free to get in touch with offers, they will be taken into consideration!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleone Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 I did forget a pic!! Here's all the documentation I've got...service history, receipts, HPI certificate and more. Plus both keys, what I think is a master key and the key code tag. All presented in a nice lime green folder, because I am a tidy freak!! I've also put the Zed up on Autotrader; http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... 3377584501 As you can see I've dropped the price again to £10,299...open to offers!!

terribleone Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 Quick bump as my Autotrader ad has nearly expired. I've had zero interest..plenty of emails from potential scammers wanting to pay me by Paypal and send their 'collection company' over to collect the car and take abroad!! How anyone falls for these things is beyond me!! I'm guessing that Zeds just aren't selling well at the moment?? I'll leave the price as is, but will say that offers over £9k will be taken into serious consideration...I have my eyes on a 320CD!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidder Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I might be interested.PM me. cheers Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleone Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Still for sale guys... I'm struggling to afford petrol prices at the moment, it's due a service and there's a knocking to the front left suspension just developed. It seems work are withholding their annual management bonuses this year, which means I have zero chance of giving the car it's annual dose of TLC. As much as it pains me to; offers around £8,000??
