great spec, Electric Windows (Front/Rear) - quite a rare option

It even has star composite alloys :oops: obviously some copying of text from other Z ads ,
Still worth chasing down if it fits the criteria
 
Seems right enough..

Low mileage too....

A relative breath of fresh air to the M market by comparison to some of the stifling numbers seen recently elsewhere
Could be one for Taz's pal :? No nav but heated seats :wink:
 
Like everybody.... :rofl:

Guess he isnt owning one then....

What is it with the Nav? Its gash anyway,if the rest of the car is good surely it wouldnt matter ?
 
A good low mile car at cheap money can offset poor spec imo , paying strong money for a leggy model with low spec is a no-no for me :wink:
 
Is the nav "good spec" though ?

I have had it 2 of mine and never even used it...Guess im in the minority as i dont really care for it at all.
 
but a good spec car will always be easier to sell on later

the 1 for me in the current market would be the imola red with the bi colour seats, but is too expensive by a grand at least, 16.5K possibly

It's not the best system in the world, and is very dated... but it's built in to the car, is always there ready to use, no faffing about sticking something to the windscreen, wires trailing all over the place etc... It's also the only factory way to get a semi-modern interface to the rest of the car's features, without it you're stuck with the LCD on the stereo which is straight out of the 80s :P

True enough...

I just never seen the value of it i guess,not in relation to the rest of the car..
 
I just see it as one more thing that can break.

Hardly ever used it in my coupe as it was so clunky. Used Tom Tom on my phone instead

Still looked pretty cool on the dash.

This is the one I mentioned a couple of pages back. Well priced but the seller wouldn't budge a penny (as is his right) and it may have never had an inspection 2 (nothing showing in the book). Factoring this into the price, plus a lack of cruise control (£400ish retrofit?) meant it was better for me to pay a bit more for one with both these bits done. :)
 
I should add that one big selling point of this black one at £12,995 is that it is one of the few with 'cheap' tax. I checked the reg date from a number of sources and confirmed it was registered about a week before the cut off, so £290 ish a year. I don't believe the seller knows this. :)

Every day I cry a little since finding out that mine was registered the day after the cut off :cry:
That black one is also missing the advanced speaker system, not sure what the proper option pack was called but there's no subwoofers behind the seats. Most I've seen have had that in the spec.
 
True, although it does gain more storage in its place. I'm glad mine has the extra speakers (Hi-Fi option), although the bass is too powerful on the standard setting (I must be getting old). :)
