Hi All,

After a bit of help, advice, opinion etc regarding deciding on which Nissan Z car to go for.

Want the roadster and it will be a high day and holiday car , looking at approx 2000 per year. Budget is £7,000 - £11,000

From people's experiences what would you choose ?

1. Early 350 Z , I read the DE engine gets slated and drinks oil ? I'll only be doing limited miles and can add the oil. I heard this engine has the low down torque which I like . It's also the only z car I've ever been in. Cheap car tax too

2. A HR engine late 350z . Full fat car tax , is it worth it to gain performance, level of trim, updated car with quirks ironed out ?

3. Stretch myself for a 370 z roadster ? It does look nice , but is it worth the extra cash. Reading the auto reviews, 370z gets a bit slated and 350 z seems to be a celebrated car .

Apologies, as you can tell I am a novice on these cars as my experience is with old classic Triumphs, TVRs Land rovers and the odd porsche.

Many Thanks

Jeremy

Thanks very much for the guidance. Much appreciated and I will certainly take the pointers with me when viewing potential 350's !
