Sidewinder Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 Evening Chaps and Chappetes! Sadly I'm not honoured enough to yet own a 300, in fact I don't currently own any car after recently selling my 'Family Hatchback'. I was planning on buying a 300 recently, but it fell through at the last minute. I do have my eye on one however and fingers crossed I'll have my way! A litle about me.... My Name's Kearon, I'm quarter of a centuary old. I have a son who's turning 2 in July and another on the way. I managed to persuade my partner to let me have such a machine by agreeing to cut costs, AKA... Cycling to work. Not too bad at 2.5 Miles I suppose! Therefore the car will be on a limited Mileage Insurance and costing less than half the insurance of my 'Family Hatchback', Crazy.. Hope I become a long standing member of the forums in the future! Cheers. Quote
Sidewinder Posted May 21, 2011 Author Posted May 21, 2011 Ah cripes... Seen as I can't find an edit button, I'll double post and inform you I'm from Runcorn, Cheshire! Always miss something in introduction threads.. Quote

300ZX_666 Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 Welcome buddy, you are not too far from me. Hope everything works out with the 300 you have your eyes on. Give me a shout if there is anything I could help you with mate. Quote
mUrdOckZ32 Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 Welcome buddy!! I´m at Barcelona but anything you need buzz:) Quote
Quavey Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 Welcome mate, which car have you got your eye upon? A car forsale on the forum? Or one from elsewhere? Dont forget to check out the buying guide. - http://www.300zx.co.uk/tech/BuyingZ.htm Also dont be affraid to ask questions/search the forum often worth checking things to be sure! Quote
Sidewinder Posted May 21, 2011 Author Posted May 21, 2011 I had a quick glance over the guide earlier, cheers. I'm actually looking at Ken's recently sprayed white 300, he's very close to me. haha.. So yes, it's on the forums and in the for sale section. I do try and do my research beforehand :) Quote
big_jim Posted May 22, 2011 Posted May 22, 2011 Hes looks nice and is a bargain by the looks of it. I might be copying him on the colour this week! Quote
Sussex stu Posted May 22, 2011 Posted May 22, 2011 welcome mate, enjoy yourself. when you get your zed, dont do what some do, by lauching it to full pelt and stacking it. Get used to driving it and learn how they react very quickly, whether a non turbo or twin turbo they will bite you in the arse and are a different animal in the wet. Quote

RichardS Posted May 22, 2011 Posted May 22, 2011 Welcome to the club mate - and good luck in your search! Richard:cool2: Quote I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:
Sidewinder Posted May 22, 2011 Author Posted May 22, 2011 and the search continues! Boooo.... However the boost is loooovely. Quote
turbocraigy Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 and the search continues! Boooo.... However the boost is loooovely. What sort of Zed are you after - standard/modified/LWB/TT etc etc?? And your budget? Quote
Sidewinder Posted May 23, 2011 Author Posted May 23, 2011 Stock / Modded, either really. LWD preferred, TT and pref a UK model. haha. Budget isn't massive, As I'd have to nick some off the parents to make it up if I go over mine, and don't really wanna do that. Problem is I don't want to travel too far either, as at the mo my dad has to run me around as I have a fractured collar bone, so can't drive. Quote
Sidewinder Posted May 23, 2011 Author Posted May 23, 2011 Ah damnit, Make a fool of myself... LWB* Quote
Sidewinder Posted May 26, 2011 Author Posted May 26, 2011 Another let down today, Loved the kit on the car I saw, but to pass it's next MOT that was coming up rapidly it needed a good £1k spent on it. Plus the engine started to smell after a while of ticking over, also had a manual boost valve... No ta. Quote
hollandrob81 Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 Ah damnit, Make a fool of myself...
