That's very nice is that Aaron, trying to stay away from BM's and Audi's though, fancy something different.  :y

A friend of mine was returning mid 30s on a run, which is more than my omega ever got!

I would think he was lying.

Mid thirties on a 4.4 V8 that even BMW's lab only managed to get 29mpg out of? I cannot see how he could better the manufacturers claim unless that was on a long downhill stretch with a tail wind.  ;D

And that brace is a pain in the ****. You cannot get anything into the boot. I would certainly try before you buy.

    That's one thing that puts me off, I would at least like to be able to get a couple of weekend bags in there. The 370 doesn't have that brace though so I'm back to stretching my budget  :-\

    So would a later 350, I`d be looking at the 07 plate onwards with the HR engine and better interior, I think thats when it got satnav.

    French engine,but i do know nissan at cranfield did a 1 off supercharged 350z ,they are a bit marmite really.


    Are you sure? What do Renault use it in? Although the smaller Nissans share a lot with Renault(he typed with a shudder!), the Z is more international.


    They look good to me, but I'd rather have a Monaro.
