So many sale posts recently, that i presume everyone wants in on the 400Z when it is launched, and needs to save purchase/import fees to get the "first in UK" kudos? ?

 

I had given thought to trying to sell my lot, simply because i have no room or time to do anything with them at the moment, but looks like this max exodus and saturation will have a bit of an impact and might as well go to welding/painting night school instead ?

 

Seems sad to think that so many great members are selling up though.

Yes there is some tasty Z's up for sale this month and a good time to buy.

I think with the recent price rises and the current situation many are looking at a pile of cash and thinking now would be a good time to liquidate it. 
It’s no secret that I’ve toyed with selling mine, using part of the money to buy something else and liquidate the other portion. Trouble is there’s nothing else I want more that fills that criteria and will fit in my garage comfortably. 

Many folk own a zed as a 2nd or 3rd car. As Stephen says above, with things as they are currently many people may simply need the money or no longer be able to justify the cost of ownership. 

There is a silver lining though - the cars are being sold rather than being broken for spares. Someone else gets to enjoy (or regret! ) ownership rather than bits being sold of and the rest ending up at a scrappy or landfill. 

Also a hard time to buy a 300zx with people of work and this semi lockdown. Sales will be slow but again  you always get some guy with money sitting ready to do a deal.

I have 3 zeds in various stages of project status, anyone want to buy them as a job lot? grab yourselves a bargain ?

Don’t laugh but I have toyed with selling my complete running road legal 2+2 one and buying a slicktop as a project. ?

Wise words as always Steve..... 

....I am still feeling the ZX love, but even I have had those thoughts, as I still have that V8 itch. And then I spend a week driving the Zed 900-ish trouble-free miles on holiday and that itch is scratched for the time being.....?

Yeah - I can relate to that too. Not necessarily a slicky - and definitely not a project - but a very tidy OEM+ SWB TT like Gary's would suit me just fine?

LOL - maybe Craig.... But I won't be joining the queue for a new 400z; the Z32 still remains my favourite Z-car!!

Still loving it Richard ? 

If the government continues to keep pressing the self destruct button repeatedly, I’ll be selling mine soon to pay the mortgage for a few months!
