Nissan 300ZX servicing

[hbeck]

Guys looking at buying one of these,(UK model) can anyone recommend any good garages for servicing etc. (Hants/Surrey area) as I have been told that the Nissan dealers are cr@p when it comes to these cars. I imagine that they are not that easy to work on given everything thats crammed in along with all the electric gizmos.

If anyone knows of any issues with these cars apart form the usually worn turbos, gearbox, suspension I would be grateful for any advice.

Here is a buyers guide for the 300ZX http://www.300zx.co.uk/tech/BuyingZ.htm
The UK models are more prone to corrosion than the Jap inports.

A dealer north of Ashtead and south of Kingston told one 300ZX owner that his car wasn't a Nissan.
