Looking for a volunteer in S.E. London/Kent to take me for a drive

I've been contemplating a 300ZX for years and now theres one for sale on SXOC which I am 98% sure I want, but as I've never actually been in one I'd like to get a ride in one first to see what they are like in the flesh.

As its in Bath I can't just pop down there quickly for a quick drive in it so am hoping that someone in S.E. London/Kent would be able to take me for a drive in theirs sometime soon? (I say soon, as I don't want to leave it too long in case the car sells)

Will repay you for your time/effort with petrol money/beer tokens.

Just looked at the sxoc advert, definatly murts old car. Just go veiw it and buy it already lol. It's only the m4 away lol, nice day out. If you drive it and don't want that one one you will still want one but this one was mechanically well maintained, it's very cheap for what it is, lick of paint and it will be a very nice motor.

perhaps a moderator should clean up the thread and get it back on topic....

Wait a minute... Its moderators who are spamming the thread..:innocent:. and others :biggrin:

 

LOL - abuse of power......:shifty::rofl:

Agreed!! And there are plenty of members between your place and Bath Ghazoobe; so someone might be willing to accompany you when you view it....

I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:

Unfortunately for me time is a very precious commodity at the moment so not easy to get to Bath to see it without definitely intending to bring it back with me.

I have bought a car from him before and what I did was research as much about it as possible first, then get a national express coach there from London after work one day (£10 ticket!), arrive about 11.30pm, buy the car and drive it back that night :)

 

I'm pretty happy from what you've all said about the car and my experience of buying from this guy before that theres not going to be anything wrong with the car. Also am sure it will drive very nicely.

 

So just all thats left really is that I want to make sure I like sitting in one, i.e. the interior isn't uncomfortable for me or anything. And although I'm sure it probably will be fine, theres always that miniscule chance it won't be, so I don't want to go all the way to Bath to find that out :)

 

Securicar, might have to pop over to you in Basildon sometime soon if you don't mind and if I don't get an offer closer to home.

Hey mate

 

I'm in Croydon if that helps, though I'm not around on any weekend in Jan!

 

Could do a week night if you fancied popping down though...likely after 8pm

Oooooo exciting. Hope you enjoy your drive.

 

Thanks :)

 

Can't be as low as 42 surely

 

I'd be very surprised at that, I know its rare to see them out and about and theres never very many for sale at a time, but still bound to be more than that.

Your about a year too late i live in sidcup and sold mine last year, you might have seen it around though it was a bright red uktt

Unfortunately don't think I did ever see it, but I do spend most of my time at work in Central London and only moved to Sidcup from New Eltham about 6months ago.

 

Hope you enjoyed the ride today bud.

Tried not to bore you by keep talking about the car too much lol

 

Yeah it was good thanks, nice to meet you and Terry.

Your cars really nice and I actually sent a message to the guy about the one I want to buy saying I'm gonna have it before you even dropped me back to my car lol. Hopefully going to be going and getting it this weekend!

 

Thanks to everyone else too who was willing to give me a ride but our free times didn't line up in the end.

Always a pleasure mate.

Lol good on ya.

Bring it over... Or I'll pop to you.

 

Terry is sound mate.

All of the people who I've met with the club apart from one are spot on.
