Really wish the media would start calling Islamic State the Coward & Paedophile Club instead. Is far more apt. Bunt of ****s

Not normal, it's the car telling you there are stored error codes.

Prices don't seem to have changed much in ten years or so. Maybe dropped slightly? I think you're looking at another ten years before they start to climb with any real note. If you want to keep it as an investment, not sure you'd get much return after another ten years of maintenance, insurance etc? If you have the space to keep it as a toy you enjoy then do so, but dont expect values to suddenly sky rocket, we've been saying they will for as long as I've been here and they've done nothing but drop lol

Pics will help to give the best advise.

Any dodo-juice waxes for me are a winner.

In your gut you know it's value, if either of the offers are too low and don't sit right with you, they are too low.

Think Mike should be able to help with new inner panels? http://www.mjpauto.com/ or at least I think he used to many moons ago, sorry if it's outdated info.

JAE is easy, put your name down, turn up with the car, put it in the field with the other Zed's, clean it, pop a for sale sign in the window and hope it makes people open their wallets!

Maybe even think about putting it in the auction too? https://www.silverstoneauctions.com/the-silverstone-classic-sale-2015

Chin up though buddy, you will shift the cars you have, it just may take a little longer than you first hoped. Silverstone Classics coming up might be worth seeing if you can get them (with a for sale sign) on display there?

eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=191603880645&alt=web Must be the blow off valves lol

Yeah but no one listens to what you're saying :tt2:

Completely agree. And again this comes back to spec, people wanting to spend £7.5k on a Zed will look for one exactly how they want it, colour, wheels, interior, ride height etc etc. These customers would be better to buy on order for rather than have in stock, unless he stocks one of each colour/interior combination because you know it will come down to "I love it but I just wish it were black or red or blue" etc etc I'm sure there is a good market for quality Zeds, but what the real world pricing for them would be, where he can run as a business and get the turnover he wants I'm not so sure about? Hopefully us bouncing off each other gives him some bits to think about, you should PM him the info on the £7.5k one for his own info.

If this is out there for real, why not the white one?

Well provide the guy examples of actual sale prices over £5k (for any condition you can find) and prove to him he can make those sale in short time frames. It's easy to say "They will sell for more money" when it's not your cash on the line Si. Your car is one of (if not THE) best zed's around, and even that would struggle to get really good money. Not because it's not worth it, but because people are not parting with good money for them. All cars over £5k I've seen for year have not sold or taken ages to sell, Garry clearly needs quicker sales and over £5k it's just not gonna happen.

Yup

Photoshop?

Looks about right to me? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-300zx-Twin-Turbo-Manual-/131535965307?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1ea0278c7b http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1993-Nissan-300-3-0-ZX-Targa-Fairlady-Z-Twin-Turbo-Rare-Jap-Import-/331580565723?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4d33bde8db And neither have sold (yet). Garry needs to shift cars to make money, selling one a year waiting for the right buyer doesn't help him. I hope I'm wrong I really do, but sale prices don't add up to much more than £4.5k at the mo.

Oh and thought's for website domains that are available. zshop.co.uk zimports.co.uk zximports.co.uk

For me, you need to look at your market a bit more. Bringing in top money cars in the wrong spec is your main problem. The cars you have brought in are stunning, no other word for it, but does the market you're selling to want what you're bringing in? 1). The N/A Convertible is expensive (and rightly so), but you will need someone looking for a convertible with top money to pay and who wants the best out there. Not an easy find and won't be a quick sale. 2). The N/A SWB is expensive (and rightly so), and you will need someone looking for an N/A with top money to pay and who wants the best out there. Not an easy find and won't be a quick sale. 3). The TT Auto is a lovely car at the top end of the money (not cheap but not expensive) but it's an Auto. People don't wan't to pay money for Autos (generalization but true on the most part). 4). Most people on the 300zx.co.uk forum already own Zed's, so chances are 90% of members won't be in the market for another. 5). Prices for Zed's are not great at the moment and although we here on the forum know what they should be worth, and what a good car V's a bad one looks like, it doesn't mean people are willing to pay more for a shiny one. My advise would have been to import as good as you can TT, Manuals, with leather, Targas, that you can sell for £4500 and make profit. That is your biggest market and top price point, over that price you will struggle no matter the condition or spec, purely because of the market, not that the car is not worth more, people just wont pay it.
