Guest Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Hi everyone. I currently drive a Golf GTi 2.0 Turbo. Iv'e had it for 2 years and had many VW's before including an R32. I’ve decided to “Grow up†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Hello there! I can't really offer too much help as yet as I'm still waiting for mine! There's lots of guys on here who will help with your questions though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Welcome! Cue the colour war..... Good choice, easiest way of checking for things that could need attention would be to look in the warranty section on here and look at what could / should have been done. Other than that, prepare to fall in love with the noise it makes and the heads it turns. Reliability wise, it's still a Nissan / Datsun and they are pretty good. I'm not aware of anything to worry about at all. Interior quality is good. It might not feel as well glued as your VW's but it's not far off IMO. Switches etc all feel good. Paint quality is also generally good apart from stone chips on the front / bonnet (bonnet seems to have thinner paint for some reason) but nothing more than you should expect for a low slung sports car.

Beavis Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Welcome to the forum. You have made a good choice in car and also the best colour and another GT4 The only thing i can say is make sure it as the full service history. I have no issues with mine but it as only done 9600 miles. I think its a tad over priced though for the mileage it as done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Thanks for all your comments guys. Noted. I'll check through the service / warranty section too. With regard to the paint chips, I had "Armourfend" on my R32, it was good stuff but as the car was black you could see the vinyl if you looked close enough. Anyone got anything similar on their Z? I'll let you know how I get on after Iv'e been for a test drive on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Beavis, where should the GT4 plaque be situated? Iv'e only seen 1 picture online of it and you can't tell where abouts on the centre console it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Thanks again for all your comments guys. Very Helpful. I was wondering if any owners are over 6ft tall (I'm 6'1") and if so, are there any issues with seat hieght and hitting your head? As you can tell, I'm yet to even sit in a Z.
