dmstewart Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Hi all! Haven't been on here for a while, used to own a zed but due to having to "grow up and buy a sensible car" i sold it about 2 years back. Good news... I'm going to get another one having spent the last 6 months convincing the other half that without one I'll likely to do something more stupid like buying a bike and killing myself within about three days... Anyway, I'm looking at the following (I love the NISMO look on the 350) and I'm just after advice. I'm pretty much ready to buy as the car is in great shape but as ever I defer to those who are more knowledgeable. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201404103233395/sort/default/usedcars/price-to/10000/postcode/ss24hw/make/nissan/colour/black/price-from/9000/onesearchad/used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew/page/1/model/350_z/radius/1500/body-type/coupe?logcode=p Do you think this is overpriced? It's not the GT, but because of it being a 2006 model does come with the electronic/heated seats, cruise control, sat nav etc. Only thing I think it's missing is the BOSE system and Rays. Mileage is also very good. Thoughts? Alternatives!? Thanks - and looking forward to being part of the club again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitstew Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Personally id say yes, its overpriced. I would have thought for that money you`d be able to get an HR model. Nice colour though and looks nice with the nismo kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricey Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Welcome back For a private sale i'd say that it is overpriced. Lovely looking motor though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhackyWill Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 About a grand over priced, but still a lovely car if you can get it for just over £8k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exotic Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 It's not the GT, but because of it being a 2006 model does come with the electronic/heated seats, cruise control, sat nav etc. Only thing I think it's missing is the BOSE system and Rays. Mileage is also very good. Thoughts? Alternatives!? Thanks - and looking forward to being part of the club again Don't be put off by non-BOSE completely as it's only slightly better than stock stereo system anyway, plus the connectors for the BOSE sub are non-standard, so can't be paired easily to aftermarket kit in case you do go down the aftermarket route, it's better not to have it in the first place. Nothing like seeing the car in the metal but I'd say it's overpriced slightly but could probably knock down the price with some negotiation. Keep looking though, the more you see the better.

370Ad Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) Definitely is a GT model bud. Would be without Cruise otherwise...everything else can be easily retro fitted. Rays are present also and I imagine it does have the Bose sub behind the seat too? If its in good condition I wouldn't say it was vastly overpriced with that mileage. Maybe £8500-9000.

dmstewart Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Thanks for all your feedback so far, appreciate it. Just been told that he's got a guy that might buy very shortly (I can't get there until weekend) so may have to continue looking anyway. If anyone knows of one for sale with the NISMO kit on please let me know... looking £10k absolute max.

He does know my situation so it would be an odd move - but as you say it's an old trick ; ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamdc2 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Dont hold out for a Zed just because it has a Nismo kit. You never know you could find a nice Zed for £9k then you could spend the rest of your budget on doing the kit yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R35LEE Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 That is 100% a GT and I would say a little overpriced. Great car though and the right mileage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacky Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Nice car. I would say £1k overpriced. For that money you should get a nice HR model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyG8nby Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I payed slightly more than that for my 06 with 27000 miles 3 months ago but was prepared to do so as it was a lower tax band car and it was the car I wanted. Trade price was 8500 at the time i bought it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
