glrnet Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 This guy is a rip off merchant. I saw 2 Zed's that he had for sale when I was looking back in June 2012, both were WAY overpriced and he just wouldn't budge EDIT - he wants £9k for the car, a 54 plate with 63k miles on it dreaming much?! Agree, mine has way les miles but won't be worth £10k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudgedon Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Now dropped to £1600... Someone give me a shout when they're under £1000! Looks like he wants them gone......make him a cheeky offer He's a stubborn cunnt and I bet he wont consider any offers under 1500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1 HNK Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I have to say, I am not a massive fan at all of these wheels. For that money you could get a really nice set of volks! Just saying lol +1000 I'm going to say something that will annoy people. I think the nismo exhaust is too expensive and isn't that great. It looks and sounds the best just too expensive new but aren't most decent things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying it for years, its an over priced average exhaust. That nismo didn't design, they just stuck their badge on it. Same as their air filters, they are just rebranded AEM filters, but a nismo premium sacked on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love mine and it is definitely a quality bit of kit, but you're probably right in that without the Nismo badge, it'd be priced the same as NVidia / Miltek... But then how much stuff do you buy everyday, partly for the brand name... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren-B Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 At the end of the day he`s a businessman, he will try & get as much as he can for items, if he`s willing to wait for the right buyer & make a good profit then thats upto him. The wheels & the car is worth what someone is willing to pay for them. A few years back people were paying in excess of 2K for the LMGT`s without tyres @Smudge - I think your opinion of him is a little strong for the forum IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I saw the quality of the flexi joints on the ones needed replacing and re welding as they had come apart and were blowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aliensurfer Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I went to see an 06 Zed last year being sold by this guy. Really disappointed with the quality of work (It was a Cat D) and no information was forth coming unless I asked a very specific question. I've mentioned him before, I have no reason to discredit him at all and would like to state that, but I just didn't get a good vibe so walked away.

samsniss350z Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Is this the guy who used to advertise on Pistonheads as Midwest Performance? The reason i ask is that the photos he takes seem to be taken in the same two places and he has a '350 Z' number plate on all of the cars he has for sale. If so it just makes me wonder why he's now flogging stuff on fleabay and losing money via commission, just makes me wonder if he encountered problems selling on Piston heads, maybe i'm being a bit cynical but i know a couple of mates who tried to buy Zeds off him and the price is the price is the price. He wouldn't even drop £50 which seems a bit harsh if you're playing $7k plus for a car. I know these wheels are rare but bloody hell £1600 with unknown hoops seems a little excessive.

Ian Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I have to say, I am not a massive fan at all of these wheels. For that money you could get a really nice set of volks! Just saying lol +1000 I'm going to say something that will annoy people. I think the nismo exhaust is too expensive and isn't that great. + a million. Most over rated part ever yep...54 plate with they miles is worth around 5~6k.....depending on condition. Are you crazy?! 7-7.5k depending on condition. 5-6k is import territory! Zeds are worthless, no matter how hard you try prices are only going one way I picked up a 53 plate UK car, GT Pack, Rays & FSH for £5600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisS Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Cheaper 18": http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290894215777 Plus £200 for a refurb. Plus £5/600 for rubber and they are 18s. So on par. And 19 are harder to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 So i am curious gents. Given the info is a bit brief, i.e, having no clue what brand of tyres they are (could be the cheapest possible), what do you think these are worth I am only interested from the point of me trying to sell some very good condition Volks Sf winnings in 19's (colour not to every ones tastes), perfect 350z fit but needing rear tyres, some of the offers i got i thought were quite frankly laughable.

Jay Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I would have thought that volks in 19 inch / good condition would go for £1500? So i am curious gents.
