Hi all, i have been thinking of getting one for a while now. i have owned a few 200sx's and a few mr2 turbo's but i always wanted a 300zx twin turbo only problem is that i have jusr bought a house with my girlfriend. i was wondering what the average mpg is and any other running cost for them? insurance is dirt cheap @ £370 a year fully comp for me and the missis. i wont use it through the week as i have a r6 for the work commute all help and advise would be great thanks.

thats about me. uk tt manual too!

UK manual TT, daily driver here - mostly motorway (not slow) - £55 V-Power and 270 miles a week.

I get 40 miles to £10 round town, TT Manual with chip, better on a run tho

Just for comparison.......... I'm running around in a Ford Cougar 2.5 auto........ Doing 17-20mpg AT BEST!!! I cant wait to get my zed back on the road next month.

When mine was running 490hp I was getting constant 22mpg (80mile/day runs to work) no thirstier than when it was stock. Still crap mind but was worth spending the extra couple of quid a day to drive the Z in.

Thanks all 20mpg seems a good average plus i would be happy with that my last car (stage 3 200sx) was about 9 mpg. as soon as we are settled into the house me thinks im going to finaly get a zed. thanks :D
