300ZX Twin Turbo UK Manual £973 Ranger £1021.85 (This is when I'm 21) with Admiral

Clearly more people must be stealing ford ranger's than supra's and 300ZX's (or writing them off)

Don't use comparison sites, I best quote I got from one of them was £100 more than I got going direct to the company they said was cheapest (which was Admiral)

Thanks for the help, got a few I'm looking at but cannot see them until the 27th due to not being 21 yet and the distance, So its just fingers crossed they don't sell But as its coming up to Christmas not many people buy cars then especially this type of car

Just done a bit of reading some manufactures kill the spark (as already stated retard the ignition) which would give smoke

I also think it cannot be good for your license either lol, The restrictior could work by closing off the air, which would lead to a unclean burn until the fuel supply is also reduced

Its a nice thought to have to top down, but your forgetting your in wales! 99% of the time it will be raining or too cold to put roof down

Agreed /\

What do you want the new one for long motorway cruises and everyday use or more for driving enjoyment? Personally I'm not a fan of merc's but the SL55 AMG is nice but more of a motorway cruiser whereas a 911 is drivers car which you can use everyday and for blast round a track

I live walking distance from work, and tbh its only when I go back home (about 100 miles does the MPG really matter) but 15-19 not bad for a 3.0L TT Auto round town my old Mk3 2.0l TDDI Mondeo was getting in the 30's on short town drives (could get 55mpg + on motorway) And yea auto's are worse on fuel mainly due to extra losses in an auto gearbox and the fact the car decides which gear to be in not the driver

I will go depending on when (and if) I get a 300ZX and how reliable she is and If I can get the time off work (I've got a few mates who are also keen on the idea If its ok to bring friends) :)

Thanks for the help! Also do any of you use their 300ZX as a daily driver? and whats it like to live with? What sort of MPG do you get on a long motorway 'economy' run? Thanks

Sorry mate I work in the Turbo business (formally know as Holset) which although owned by Cummins its almost a separate company

used to work for Asda delivering shopping around pwllheli yes I know its a fair way from Rhyl but thats how far asda deliver for rhyl lol

Where abouts in North Wales you from?

Seams a bit pointless.... Light comes on as car stalls due to lack of fuel (I have a feeling that feature probs comes to the car being co-developed by rover)

Near Rhyl but i'm on 1 year industrial placement at Cummins Turbo Technologies in Huddersfield at moment, Looks very nice that red one but am I right in saying that is an Import? and its an auto

I was looking at quotes from Bell for a while then one day it jumped up by £200

Definitely don't want any of that cheap c*** on ebay it will cost you more in the long run, with inferior quality

Cheers for that, so is it pretty much rust that kills them? what mechanical things go wrong and how should I look / listen out for on a viewing / test drive?

I've currently got a 1996 Honda Civic 5dr 1.4 16v and I've had the needle on zero and no light came on I'm starting to think it does not have one

(I'm 21 in 9 day) best quote i've had is £977 from Admiral (although is £500 more until the day i'm 21) but for the Import was more like £2k, the one I'm looking at is a 1990 FSH Manual

on the low side of £3000, It needs to be a Twin Turbo UK model (import insurance is a killer)

Hi I am currently looking to buy a 300ZX what are the issues I need to look out for when view and test driving etc... Thanks!
