Today I actually got round to checking the purchase over,After running her up for around 20 mins and not seeing anything untoward, Me and Al went for a little drive.

Needle on Temp gauge halfway,heater nice and hot.gave it a bit of welly (Iv'e missed that!) no vapour/smoke, needle still halfway...........

Got her back in the Garage and felt around the pipes etc and could actually touch them and the radiator!-couldn't do this on the last Z without Hospital treatment after lol!

 

So initial findings are.........well nothing! This is looking to be a Genuine 30,000 mile car with the sweetest sounding engine I have had in a Z, will do a pressure check tomorrow as a matter of course but can't see a problem TBH.

 

So first job, fit bonnet strut-Done.

 

second job.........you'll have to wait and see!:ninja:

Sounds like a good buy. Did you already post pics ?(I think I missed them)
