The Raven Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Well that was about as close as we are going to get. I really thought an N/A would show up. Hats off to the Z £1500 and all hammond could say was it was still awesome. Found myself liking the shape too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I thought it was going to be a Supra but he would of been hard pushed to get one for £1500, Lucky really as everyone i know in town thinks there well expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Can a manual 300zx TT top targa really be had for £1500? mate of mine had one years back and it was a flyer, id have one for messing about in at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Such a shame they didn't pick the Supra. Mind you, can we honestly say it would have done any better on a 'ice track'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 Thinking about it the Z did really well in the normal stuff It would have beat the stig around the track had hammond not spun Stoped miles short of the bike Didnt do the 300z any harm, maybe in the price stakes, but i bet there will be a few people looking at them now that normally wouldnt have bothered.

Guigsy Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 i think clarkson would have beaten the time too if he hadnt have driven like a complete tool. The door sponsors had me in stitches though Coq yoghurt, les bien hat. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip you can pick up a 1990 or 91 for that price jamie with around 100,000 on the clock. Thats for the TT aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I think you can get a decent 300ZX NA for 1.5k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkirby Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 you can get a decent low mileage stage 1 zed with circa 350 bhp for £3k ish which aint bad for a 170+ mph car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronttuk Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 i nearly bought a uk zx manual for £1500 just before i bought my n/a supra, i had a tt 300zx short wheel base but reliability wasnt great so it put me off getting another 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordy07 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 The zx on topgear has the same Volks as mine,i dont know if thats a good thing or not:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex C Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 The Zed featured was a SWB I think? I must say I came over all nostalgic...I thought it still looked great on the road especially in red with some decent wheels and it still had some grunt in the 0-60-0. For £1500 that is a great buy (although they have now trashed it!). Still love them even though the Sup is a step above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Glad they didn't pick a Supra seeing how they treat em! The Z still looks cool to me, especially compared to the junk it was driving with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benyon Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I will deffo own a Zed some point in my life, You can get a decent import TT manual for the same price as a minted N/A or OK TT auto supra. The price is more my budget on them. I like the one on this page http://www.nishimuraya.com/car/04.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooley Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 i had so much fun in my zed and i got so much free stuff by having it did max power 3 years running and i became infamous on the cruise scene for my drifting and doughnutting i even got in a music video on my .....n-trance forever what a fun night that was the guy in the video shit himself lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
