I was traveling on the duel carriageway between Antrim and Ballymena yesterday around 1230 hrs and seen a blue 240/260Z going the other direction. Was this you Ian :)

Thought it was, not many about in N.I. Your Z look great in the Spring Sun cruising down the road it really stood out from all the other Euro box's. Hope we meet up some time Ian.

Yes, still very rare over here.

All S30's really stand out on the road, especially compared to Euro Eco boxes. Helps that mine is quite a bright shade of blue of course.


I was heading to the RMS BBQ, even amongst some mighty fine machinery the S30 still stands out.


I'm sure we'll meet up sometime, not many 300's about so I wouldn't mind a look.

I was on my way to Ballycastle to buy a car and it was my first drive of the year in the 300zx after being garaged all Winter. I was a bit worried on taking it out for a long drive on its first outing but it drove perfect. 128 miles there and back and a big smile on my face. Next car show I will be going to is just up the road from me in Carryduff in June https://www.facebook.com/carryduffc...238921713434/1712709542333037/?type=3&theater
Then in July I will be getting the ferry to go to our show and AGM at Coventry Transport Museum.

On my way home from Ballycastle I stopped of at the Dark Hedges for a quick picture. There was a lot of people about and had to wait till the road was free then jump out quick and take a picture. Would love to be there at dawn or when the sun goes down but anyway here is my pic,

It good for the engine to do a long drive after being stored. Plus its a Nissan, so you didn't have anything to worry about. Glad to hear you are still enjoying the car, thats what matters, mine still makes me laugh sometimes after I've put my foot down, its just so much fun.


The Jap show at the Titanic quarter is still going ahead, I've got my car on the inside display if I can get off work for it. They want to use my car for filming the promo vid for it this Sunday so it better be dry.


Nice Dark Hedges shot,its hard to get it quiet enough to get a photo msot of the time.

If you are at the Titanic Quarter on Sunday I could take a run down to see you and the Z if you have time.

They are taking some shots there but as I'll be doing the early shots up on the North Coast I don't think I'll be heading to Belfast.
