    New Member tempted by a 240Z

    You don't really need a specialist to look after the Z as they are mechanically simple with parts readily available (although sometimes it's a choice between buying in the UK with convenience coming at a higher price or importing from the States and occasionally Japan).

    Stainless steel bumpers

    They seem to have gone up in price recently at around £750/850 but I'm pretty sure I could let you have a set for a couple of hundred quid less if that's any good.

    Classic Values (at the moment 12/23).

    December is the worst month of the year for sales in the motor trade and especially for classic cars and convertibles. Great month to buy and not a good month to sell, hence bargains to be had.

    Classic Values (at the moment 12/23).

    You need to stop comparing classics to modern day cars, yes they are both capable of getting from A to B but that's where the similarity ends.
