The Jap
« on: 23 April 2016, 13:16:57 »

Last weekend I picked up my replacement for the Omega after what seems like an age since I paid the deposit.

It`s a 2012 Nissan 370z GT Edition, one of only 84 manuals in the UK, finished in metallic pearlescent white with dark anthracite wheels and comes with full Nissan service history, bought from a committee member in the Nissansports car club.
Not to everyones tastes or needs but I`ve hankered after one since they came out and i absolutely love it  8)

Here`s a few snaps for anyone interested

TBH I`m not keen on the look of the GTR, good car but not pretty like the 370z

And just pulling up at my mums earlier and there was an original Z280 coming the other way  8)
very nice  :y :y

I may have banged my head, but am I seeing one too many when looking at the pedals? ::) ;D

Mr Beanz would say so as he prefers sludgepumps but I think what you`re referring to is the foot rest  :y

I`m sure it will serve me well, it`s comfortable, quick and got everything I need.

I like the older stuff but I like my toys like mp3`s, aircon and hands free calling which is why I plumped for something newer, if I was going old school it would have been a Quattro though.

The UR Quattro was[still is] an awesome piece of kit in its day.The 370Z is also something of a weapon!

Lovely car mate. Not to my personal taste but I bet it goes. I'm hankering for a Jag xf. I'll sadly never afford one though lol

Enjoy it  :y

Agreed ;D ;D the 260Z wasn't too bad but the 280ZX (I think that was its name) was woeful for a sports car.

Many years ago we had a 240 in the garage for tin worm removal  :o but it looked fast just sitting over the pit :y

Yep....Datsun had lost the plot by then. The 280Z was suitable for 'lard arsed' yanks only.
