  1. absolutely gorgous mate. any engine mods? or did i miss that?
  2. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=23616 One of the things we like more than anything else on a good Shed of the Week candidate is a decent, well-written advert. It shows that the sender cares enough about their motor to give it a proper sell, and generally (we reckon) that they're an honest enough sort. We also reckon somebody punctilious enough to bother about a spot of speeling, punctuation and grammar (as well as a well-crafted ad) is also more likely to be the type to bother about a spot of regular servicing, care and general maintenance for their motor. We have no hard data to back this theory up, of course, but shedding is all about going with gut feelings and intuition, isn't it? This week, however, we are throwing our 'well-written advert' theory out of the window in favour of this Nissan 300ZX, spotted by PHer Ian Bond (only1ian) and suggested as a squint-and-you'll-get-it ancestor to our new PH fleet Infiniti G37 S (in as much as it's built by Nissan and features a naturally aspirated V6). But, as tempting as £999 is for so much early 90s Japanese GT metal (tempting provided you like that sort of thing, of course), you do have to be prepared to look past the, er, eccentrically spelled advert, which features such gems as '11 moths MOT', an 'emobilizer' and a 'kenwood sterio'. We are prepared to overlook the odd advert copy though - well, I am, because I have a well-known soft-spot for performance cars from the far east (and I don't mean Norfolk) - because this 1991 Z32 looks pretty clean. Okay, so it's not the mighty-quick twin-turbo version, but it's unmodified (except for, from the sound of it, the exhaust), it has plenty of tax and ticket, and it's a rear-drive coupe with a not-unreasonable 222bhp and a manual gearbox. Heck, it's even the T-top version, so you can get yourself suitably sunburned while enjoying your large, fast (ish) Japanese coupe... Of course, that lack of detail in the advert would mean you'd definitely need to give the car a good inspection, and find out if there's much paperwork with it but, on the face of it, this 300ZX looks like it could be a fine car. So who cares if the vendor isn't a fan of full stops, capital letters or the use of the word 'now' as opposed to 'know'? Advert is reproduced below 300zx black (n/a manual) **£999** (1991) 90,000 miles £999 know reduced for quick sale formy 300zx, in very good condition, engine and manual gearbox are in very good condition,full electrics, seat mirrors windows, new disc pads all around 11 moths mot 5 months tax car is in every day use for short journeys, no knocks no problems, starts first time, toad alarm n emobilizer,kenwood sterio, full stainless twin exhaust sound beautifull must see

  7. wow didnt even know there would ever be a fuel protest
  8. i have my zed as a daily driver, when the a406/a40 is nice and quite its brlliant, and if your worried about being stuck in traffic etc not sure why an auto tt is still a problem. no matter what anyone says there still is a big difference from an na/ to a tt ive diven an n/a and there is a massive difference obviously only when putting your foot down but the difference is still there. the sound is nicer on the n/a. still a zed is a zed and depends what you want it for. some people are happy with around 220 and just the looks do i for them. the n/a is still very nice to drive and hootle about in, especially on those short journeys.
