Well, I’ve been longing for a Z for about 22 years and this week, the dream finally came true!!
After a bit of uncertainty, I went for the best condition, rust free car I could get - settling on a lovely 280z from the well known club member Chris Vega.
I flew across to Southampton from Guernsey, met a friend who transports vehicles and drove up to Exeter with him to come see the car.
I should point out at this stage, this was only the second time in my whole life I’d ever actually seen a Z, and would be the first ever time I’ve sat in one!
It didn’t go entirely to plan, as there was no way we could get it started and I discovered during the inspection that the passenger floor pan was completely rotted out!!
A bit of panic ensued, I nearly left hugely disappointed. Luckily Chris and I were able to come to an agreement and I left with my new 280Z on the trailer! Phew!
