[Mr Gav]

After around 28 years of owning Vauxhalls I`ve decided to try something different an a bit newer.

Had a run down to Glouster today, a nice round trip that took a full tank of juice, the fuel light came on just a s I was pulling into the street 

Anyway, the car in question is this little beauty




I`ve paid the guy a deposit and collect when he takes delivery of his new car, an arrangement that suits us both, counting the days now   

[Andy B]

very nice Gav 

[Shackeng]

I don't think that would take my clubs and trolley.

[Mr Gav]

very nice Gav 

Cheers Andy, it`s just what I`ve been wanting 

I don't think that would take my clubs and trolley.

I think the clubs would fit but the trolley would have to stay at home.....you could fit a caddy in the passenger seat though

Please Sir, what is it? It looks like one of those sexy sleek cars, like some Jags, which look great photographed alone, but look undesirably low when seen in traffic, with the driver unable to see where he is going or sit upright. I hope there is good users' forum for it.

Please Sir, what is it? ....

Nissan 370Z. 

Very nice Gav. 

[MV6Gaz]

Nice car, bet it goes well!!

It`s not that low although you can`t see the front of the bonnet from the drivers seat so I`ll just have to get the judgement right.

The Nissansportz forum is a good forum, it`s a committee members car that I`m buying, it`s quite quiet compared to OOF but lots of knowledge on there.

Please Sir, what is it? ....

Nissan 370Z. 

Very nice Gav. 

Thank you 

Nice car, bet it goes well!!

Yes very well, scalded cat springs to mind, my MV6 felt slow on the way home 

[aaronjb]

That's a very, very nice looking car in that colour 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

A proper sports car and a world away from the 'hairdressers special' that is the Mazda MX5.

That very same engine is currently tempting me in  large 'Datsun' saloon form.

[Viral_Jim]

Yup, very nice indeed!

White with blue exhausts wouldn't be my colour choice (farrr too lazy for  white car) but a stonking looking motor!

[EMD]

Very smart motor  I see mr datsun has copied my anthracite colour alloys 

[Mr Gav]

That's a very, very nice looking car in that colour 

Yeah it`s pearlescent white, lovely colour especially with the mid anthracite wheels

It`s a nice engine, pulls well too, it`s also found in the Murano too and don`t seem to be too troublesome.

Think you'll miss the old Omega.....just on the odd occasion...they're a hard habit to break

[Mr Gav]

You`re right I will miss it, we had a really good drive back home and it`s a great mile muncher but the heart strings are pulling 

[aaronjb]

Well should you decide to go back to an Omega and offload that at a reasonable price... let me know

[Andy B]

Think you'll miss the old Omega.....just on the odd occasion...they're a hard habit to break

You`re right I will miss it, we had a really good drive back home and it`s a great mile muncher but the heart strings are pulling 

I miss the way a V6 Omega would still pick its heels up at 'motorway speeds' and go. I'm not saying my Merc won't (though I've forgotten how it drives after 4+ weeks without it!  ) but a turbo diseasal does it completely differently ..... plus it's out of breath at 120 ..... apparently 

[ted_one]

I still enjoy taking the Omegas out for their 'service runs' at 5 in the morning.there's hardly any one around and I'm back indoors at 5.45, and always give a thought to all those people just getting out of bed and getting ready to do battle in the morning rush hour.Omega,empty roads and retirement....life's good

[migiestate]

What a great looking car.

They`re even better with a LSD fitted

and just 2 pedals

Have you sold your Omega already

No, you have to have the three for best effect 

Have you sold your Omega already 

No, as I don't get the 370z for another 6 weeks the Omega is staying for a while but due to the rusty arches and door bottoms I will be breaking it 

[2boxerdogs]

That is a really great looking car, will be totally reliable  a superb choice..😀😀😀

[EMD]

Is that all thats wrong with it  Shame to see the best of the bunch 3.0 being broken , maybe put an ad up ...you never know someone mite like it

speak to serek hes looking for a v6

[2boxerdogs]

Even though I love the Merc, I miss my 2.6 CDX  there is just something about them if only I had a double garage I would have kept it, just seem such good value for money if you get a good one.

Another one moved on from Omegas - hope you get as much enjoyment from your new motor as I've had/having from the two Jags I've had since my old Elite.  You'll soon realise that Omegas are now outdated, as one would expect from a 13 yo+ car. Reminds me of this every time I drive SWMBOs Estate.

They are out dated but still a good drive, I`m sure I`ll be enjoying the 370 though
