Hi, My name is Pat just turned 22 and have been obsessed with 350z ever since i seen one when i was younger. So one of my life goals was to own one since its my favourite car EVER and luckily have managed to purchase the perfect z for me two months ago.

 

So my first car i bought was a polo 1.2L s 60 and love it to bits so here it is with new alloys since it looked pants with originals and will get it lowered soon.WP_20140606_005_zpsb0292e96.jpg

Then 2 months ago in perthshire i found the one it was a Black 350z HAD DONE 52,000 miles has a custom duel stainless exhaust with only 200 miles done on it,original alloys reconditioned inside tanned seats near enough perfect condition and cost me £6,900 which to me was a great price.

and finally decided to spray paint my brake/battery covers and took the risk of getting it from halfords lol but the end result came out perfect but pic shows it lighter where it is darker in real life( also if you have a dog that casts a lot dont let in near anything wile doing it have so many dog hairs on it but picked them out with tweezers)

now got to decide on whats next to be red but at moment like the minimum red :)

 

As you can see i dont have many pics of my car as i have not been able to face it in the day light due to uncovering the hidden bodywork of my car recently the previous owner must of used a machine buffer and has made a horrific job all over and has loads of swirls,scratches,haze marks and holographics. But went over to detailing work and found i guy who is willing to try and get it back to showroom style so its booked in for the 3rd of November and cant wait for it to look a little if not massively improved.

 

So next up i am wanting a k&n air filter,plenum spacer,re-map,new sideskirts (not decided yet) and a charge speed rear bumper look sh*t hot i think.
