During the summer I swapped cars for a weekend with my son's 350z....I don't care what Clarkson said about this car..I think the Nissan 350z is one hell of a car. With a 100bhp more compared to the S eek ...it scared me shitless...I wished the fruit of my loins had bought something more sensible... a Micra maybe.. The anti-slip..traction control gizmo was quite useful, especially with my limited driving skills.

I think he enjoyed the S...but when I suggested keeping it for the week he gave one of those fuk off Dad looks...

A mate of mine bought one when he was living across the road from me at my previous address. Certainly looked the business, although he wouldn't let me have a go, can't think why?! evil Coincidentally, when I bought my S3 a few months later, the guy I was buying it off had just bought a 350Z and his missus wouldn't let him keep both.

I would keep the 350z too....these cars are not comparable, anyways, my S is 17 years older to boot.
I wonder how many 350z's will be wintering in peoples garages in 17 years time.

I was gonna' store my S off road this winter but it's so easy to tax a car on line..just a click of the mouse and voila!.. Looks like I will be venturing out on those sunny wintery days ahead...
