please Join me in saying HUGE thanks to (300zx_666), and How much I hate the AA.

 

1 Ian went to see the a Z for me in Liverpool whilst I was still in Heathrow, Saved me time and of course Money.

2. Broke a deal with the seller better than I could have.

3) I went to collect the Z and whilst I was there he gave me his alloy so I could get home as one tyre was under the legal limit.

4) couldn’t get the z to start as the previous owner was there and I didn’t know how to start it due to a complex immobilser system,and no recovery company could help me out, when on did finally tuned up they said they couldn’t take the z to London for me as no tax was displayed.

5) had to drive all the way home without my Z 

6) he went the next night whilst I was back in Heathrow to see the previous owner to Find out how to start the car with this complex immobiliser.then drove the z to the petrol station and then home without asking me for money for petrol.

7) I went there on Friday and he went to pick me up from the coach station at 6 am!!

8) I had to get a few bits and bob sorted for the Z like getting a new battery and a tyre, Old Swan tyres were Brilliant extremely helpful

9) about to set off at 7pm home when the Z decided it didn’t want to turn over again, so called recovery at 7:30 Ian told me many times just to stay over his.

10) Van came had a look and spent 1 ½ hours trying to establish the problem

11) 9:30 was told there will be a flat bed on its way within an Hour. Luckily Ian and Ian JNR was still around so had some company and they gave plenty of coffee and refreshments, which you can imagine well needed whilst waiting outside in the cold, they waited with me.

12) 12:15 flat bed finally arrives only to find out the driver is about to have a 45 minutes break once he loads the Z on.

13) 01:30 we finaly set of to toddington where another recovery will pick me and the z over and take me home

14) finally get home at 6:45 and had to go straight to work!!!

 

 

So what a day well worth it in the end and sooo lucky Ian and his family were there, they looked after me like family and we have defiantly started of a great new friendship.

 

So A massive thanks to Ian and his family for everything and the fact that they ensured I got home safely, and wanted me to contact them as sooooon as I Got home now matter what time.

 

there were loadsa problems he had whilst the Z was still in liverpool with him but i wont put them down.

 

Definatly one of the greatest and most patient family iver ever met.

 

Thanks guys.

 

Pics of the new Z will be put up later this evening, oh also a beggine post for free or cheap parts lol.

Ian is a nice chap and his lad glad they could help you out as im sure he is, good that you got there in the end and look forward to the pics!!

aggreed, a gr8 fella! :-) good to see such helpfulness in the club :-)

Does sound like a top guy, nice to know there a re Z owners going out of their way to helping.

 

Not sure why you hate the A.A though?

Having met Ian and Ian junior I am not at all suprised. Both top fellas.

called them at 8pm when I was broken down, got home 11 hours after, no appologies, takes 4 hours to get home, made me wait 3 hours for the flat bed with no explanation.:-(, got home at 6:45am and had to go straight to work, no mention that when the Driver does finally come to pick me up, he has to take a 45 minutes break before we can head off.

three letters spring to mind> RAC lol biased as im with them but the AA do seem to like to make you wait!

Top bloke Ian - absolute credit to the club :bow: :bow: :bow: look forward to catching up again mate :)

 

 

ps. I only recently took out cover with AA so hopefully theyre not as bad as they sound!

They probably had a break for health and safety mate ;)

 

Maybe it's just me, but when I've broken down, it matters more that I'm able to get home over how long it takes. Not worth stressing over :)

Yes Vijay it was, I didnt mind as it wasnt the guys fault,he was really surprised that after waiting this many hours for him I was still calm and collective, infact soo happy he called his manager 3 times on his radio to ensure the other recovery will be there ready waiting for me and it was.

 

Just glad the cars home now. :-)

Well done Ian its people like you that make this club so great:thumbup:

Bit of a nigthmare, but Good to hear you got sorted, nice one Ian. :thumbsup:

 

Also good to hear you back in Z ownership Indian_zx

 

but, blimey, What sort of Immobiliser does this thing have ! lol

 

The 45min break thing is a legal requirement, no matter who your breakdown cover is with unfortunatly. Would of been nice if they had told you in advance though.

its the people that make this club great

 

top work bud, and look forward to seeing the pics

Good stuff!-Don't get me started about the AA tho'!:angry:

Thank you so much guys, but all of the 300zx members we have met on here and at Zedworld, plus all the North Wales lads, I'm sure everyone would have done the same thing.

 

I would like to thank Indian_300zx not only for this thread, but also for his fantastic attitude in the face of the many problems that cropped up whilst sorting out his new 300ZX. I may be in the minority here, and believe me, I usually don't like the change of rear lights, but I have to agree that they do look better in the flesh so to speak.

 

Cheers everyone.

Well done Ian you do the club proud mate!

Top bloke Ian - absolute credit to the club :bow: :bow: :bow: look forward to catching up again mate :)...........................

 

He sure is - nice one Ian mate!! The club spirit is alive and well and I have to agree, having met Ian at Jeff's a couple of months back, that he's a damn nice fella as well:thumbup1:

 

I'm pleased you got the new Z sorted too Indy - hope you'll be happy with it buddy.
