harryjackson Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Hello 350Z Owners I have always had a high interest into the Nissan 350z, so now it is my 21st birthday I thought it was about time I treated myself to the car I've always wanted. Ive joined this forum to gain a lot of information and try to get enough knowledge about the 350z before I go and view the car and possibly buying it. Below or attached you can see the listing for the car ; I have also attached more photos If you could please give me and advice or support with the purchase, I'm due to see the car with interest in buying it on Saturday 19th July 2014. Additional Information; Year of Manufacture-2003 Japanese Import to UK Automatic Transmission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeeyB Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I'm pretty sure that car has been advertised for a while now. I bought my 350z a couple of months ago and remember flicking through this one whilst browsing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also can you see anything wrong with it straight away? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeeyB Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Personal preference. I wanted a manual with leather interior. Worn interior stands out to me and seems fairly cheap for a Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimboy2 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Interior looks like it has seen better days. What's your budget? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I would like an interior that is leather and a manual but this one seems good for the price bracket I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryjackson Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 Interior looks like it has seen better days. What's your budget? Hi JimBoy2, budget maximum is about £4500 as I would need to lump £1,500 insurance on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 As per our FB convo - car looks ok... But just a basic model with no extras and yea, interior seen better days. I went to see a car for one of the members on here few weeks ago. Car was in Cov, 2003 import, black, few scratches, but nothing major - I think she got price down to 3.3k in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimboy2 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Surely if you want leather and manual, than this one ticks none of your boxes. Personally looking at that interior that car doesn't look like it's been looked after. I would recommend keep searching, keep a eye out on the for sale section here and maybe save another 500 if possible. You might regret not getting a GT spec. It's your decision after all just friendly advice. Edited July 13, 2014 by jimboy2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been perfect as I wanted a black one anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimboy2 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 There was this one a while back. It's now sold but just shows how different it can be buying from here. It's not 100% but just shows what else you can get for your budget http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/85553-2003-uk-gt-350z-in-sunset/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) I'd save up a bit more/keep looking for a bargain and get one with leather etc that one looks pretty tatty. There's always lots more out there. Edited July 13, 2014 by Jp606 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
