Hi, Just thought I would introduce. I have recently bought a red 280ZX. I owned one in the mid 90's and loved it (bought it from South West Z Cars Ian Haithwaite?) . I sold it to try and restore a 240, but it beat me! Not until now I've been in a position to get back into zeds. I'm very happy with this one, its a beauty! Took it for a spin with roof open, and felt great!!!20210526_193603.jpg

I bought it privately from a chap in Maidenhead. The car is known to the club. It was featured in a magazine in 2015. I don't know much about the history, but it was very nicely restored as original and has been well looked after since. Anyway here a few more photos.

Do you want this SteveG? PM me and I can post out to you if you don’t already have this. Only a few pages taken out of a magazine in Oct 2015!

That is very thoughtful of you. You know what, a copy of that 2015 magazine came with the car. Thanks anyway Steve

I was at Chatham docks for that article/photo shoot, i remember sitting in it at the time and thinking how different it was to my 260z.
The photographer wanted to get a few on the move shots of the other cars, via my sunroof! :D
