Default 350Z for 48hrs

Anyone else received one?

Black 24hr diary and offer to test drive a Zed for 48 hrs.

Don't think i will bother, owned one and moved on, but I would like to see if the extra 20bhp makes much of a difference.

From Nissan GB.

"Drivers must be aged between 23 and 70 and have received a 48 hour invitation from Nissan to participate" So not tranferable.

I registered interest in the 350Z on their website a few years ago so I guess it's linked to that.


The supercharged one at Goodwood looked interesting

I never get these invites through! Which is a shame as it would be great to test drive one again just to re-affirm my decision on switching to the S! Plus nothing could go wrong with it in 24 hours

I took them up on it last weekend. I really enjoyed the car, it is full of character, surprisingly easy to drive and the engine is great but whilst it felt good it didn't feel special. The defining moment for me was passing an S and wishing I was back in one if those instead of the Z (oh and the fact that both my mother and mother in-law really loved ithe Z - that has to say something ).

If I was in the market for a two seater coupe, the Z would be near the top of the list but not the roadster.

I don't think the credit card deposit and the excess (although mine was "only"
