I bought the second one I drove! I didnt know alot about them!! 2 & a half years on still dont!!

In todays market, dealers dont seem as keen to give or nagotiate a deal just because you wave cash in their face! 4k trade in is a good price on a ten year old car. I just traded in a micra for £300 no comparison to a Z though

Try again! I ave a UK TT 91 & I dont ave leather! I thought leather was an extra could be wrong though.

Best to order both & change both if doing one. One goes under & across the other. Even Nissan have difficulty seeing which one to order on their diagrams. They are a PITA to change but I did both mine in an hour or two!

Not my taste & an N/A!

Hi like Jonno said its the petrol cost! I did 23k first year & it cost me sh-t loads of dosh! two sets of rubber,500 quid for MOT. After first year got a second car to runaround in. Now got new engine 4k! new auto gearbox 1400k! more tyres 500 quid, new rad 200 quid! & other bits like discs & pads front & rear, poly bushes and still standed!

Hi, I might tell you aload of tosh! I thought if you select D on your auto, the car pulls away in 2nd gear. The use of 1st I thought was for pulling away on hills. As I said Kia this could be a load of b---ocks. Arthur

Im pissed off cant find my No! How come? My be it aint my car! Arthur

Is this added cost from the imports authority in the uk? They charge you on the amount the company insure the goods for shipping. You can phone them up and quiery the charge. Have you already paid? I ordered some prints from USA cost £40. when they delivered them to me the importers wanted to charge me £233!FFS took me 2 months to get my prints with nothing to pay in the end Arthur

Hi Thanet I did 23000 miles first year of ownership with no probs. If like some I had only driven the Z at W/ends & done 3/4K a year that would equal over 5 years trouble free car. Since this was one & a half years ago, I have now got bills over £6K!!! Recon autobox New engine/rad/brakes,pads & discs, even the tyres wear out fast! I aint no mechanic too boot! Arthur

Ive not seen one yet around Folkestone or A20 or M20 or A1 or M25. But when I do I know I can beat it!! Arthur

Hi If the sump has been dented & pushed up, which it looks like from the pics best not drive car and change sump. You can definately take sump off without taking engine out. When my engine developed a problem (big end knock) the chaps at the garage dropped the sump! Saw it with my own two eyes. Arthur

Hi tuberider So you had your Z as an insurance rightoff for a smashed windscreen! Wicked man! let me know the insurance company, just going to smash my screen get it wrote off, then buy it back!! Arthur

Hi Mark S, At least if the engine turning over then definately not siezed, thats good! Maybe not totally engine trouble free but a good sign! Hi Mark, my Z will do 150 just scares me what other drivers do! Arthur

Hi How many of the 100,000 ave you done in the Z? My Z has done 138,000. I bought car with 97,000 on clock (all MOTs)UK Z Arthur

Hi sorry to hear about your Z. I hope not too much damage to your engine done! Hope its not siezed up do to heat! Sorry not much help Arthur

Hi, why you not ave winscreen replacement on insurance? Cost me £50 & it was done same day at home! Arthur

Hi You might regret not getting a TT! Arthur

Hi Rude Dog welcome to the house of horrors! Have fun with your Z!! Arthur

All I have done is taken the belt off! Will replace it in the summer. Arthur

I would not get involved! Alex the advice given on here is very sound, say no! Completely taboo! Arthur

Same thought as Richard and good thing no damage done. If they had got in and stollen it I dont think your insurance company would have stood by you! Arthur

Looks GOOD!!! Logged on yesterday about 5pm and thought WTF is going on! Must be wrong site! logged off! Arhtur

Hi Eddie Hows it all going & what have you decided? Paul, not wishing to take info off Eddies problem Luke at Z Centre sell the CD manwell cost about £15 if you keep your Z you are going to need one for help & advice. The best place for help is this site! Arthur

First pipes to check would be the two matrix hoses at the back of the engine & bulkhead. These maybe in the wrong area but are the easy ones to see! After that looking further down at turbo hoses or back of engine. These are a mix of metal & rubber hoses. Other thing if you cannot see it when engine running & hot you will need a compression test on water system. Hope it helps
