LukeD Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hi all, im going to look at a 350z tomorrow, it's got 110k miles and is a 54 plate and is up for around 5k, does that sound reasonable? Also are there any common issues with these and what are they like on fuel being a 3.5? Thanks Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodyboarder81 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hi , and welcome look at the buyers guid on here , not great on fuel to be honest but as you say its a 3.5 ... 22-28 mpg is around what most people get . That's about the right price for the age and milage ... Just. Check service history and overall condition of the car, good luck ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveallen1999 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hi, price sounds reasonable, but it would depend on the condition. The mpg is not that good, the best I am getting is about 27mpg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almeida1234 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hey welcome Mileage is not a problem as long as it has full service. I would go and drive and see how you feel about the car. You could get good GT SPEC model with low mileage for 6k ish, so I would keep that in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMballistic Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Welcome Luke. Mileage shouldn't be a problem if it's been serviced correctly. Hopefully it's got history with it has it? Take a look at the service schedule for the 350, that way you'll be able to tell if it's lacking or wanting for anything. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/31110-service-schedule-for-a-350z/ Can be heavy on fuel depending on how heavy your right foot is.

LukeD Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 Thanks for the welcome guys only thing that concerns me is fuel lol I had a focus st at the mo and it's pushing 300bhp, now with say 20 quids worth of fuel ill see about 70-80 miles, that's with mixed driving, what are the 350z compared to that?

I get 19mpg average weekly on my way back & forth to work ~ short journey/stop & start traffic ~ urban ...But I can get 30mpg or more during motorway journeys providing I can stop accelerating just to hear the V6 roar.

tatooandy67 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Hi & Check overall condition, as long as service history is good and it's been looked after mileage shouldn't be a problem, tbh I wouldn't worry too much about mpg it's a 3.5l v6 so it's never going to be economical. Good luck with your viewing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeD Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 Thanks guys! The only thing putting me off is the high miles, can anyone on here with high mileage give me some resurance lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjohnson1993 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 mileage should be ok - mpg wise if you're buying a zed that shouldn't be a factor, having said that it shouldn't be worse than an st, those things guzzle it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
