Yes the prices are tumbling as with most secondhand cars. Plenty of private Z's for under 8K now. Not good for owners who like to swap their cars every couple of years. I love my Z that much I can't see me ever parting with her so when I eventually snuff it it will be worth a fortune! :lol: :beer:
Hi, what year is your Z?
Does sound like the common timing chain/tensioner issue.
There is an updated timing kit available to solve the problem. Your looking at around £600 fitted from a reputable pug dealer.
Had mine done at 17k and been great ever since. :beer:
Hi, not sure about the mirror possibly just water ingress may be worth a strip down even though I believe tosh can be tricky?
As for the parking sensors I had a damaged sensor and it stopped the whole system working so you need to identify the damaged one and replace it they're around £25 each...
Hi, sounds like their taking the pi**!!!
I'm sure I'd just alter the mirrors via the switches than replacing the whole units!
Some dealers just try it on! :eusa-think:
Hi, Uter single/twin exit replacement back box £160 delivered on flea bay but there's still the fitting cost. I like the chunky look of the original tailpipe though :beer:
Hi,looks like they added that they have been Hydro dipped after I had looked at the ad. it just said carbon fibre effect.
I thought they were cheap! :eusa-think:
Hi all, just thought I'd post this advert which I came across while browsing eBay yesterday a bargain for anyone thinking of doing some upgrades. Genuine pug carbon mirror covers which retail at well over £300 for £100 a good buy I'd say! :beer:

P.S. I...
Hi SEVEN7SEV3N,
Yeh I don't think that's a bad price to pay for a custom exhaust. :thumbup: one thing that I definitely want is a slightly more sporty sound! :beer:
Hi, sounds like you have a GT there! I may be proven wrong but I thought all sport models were the 156 variant and the 200 thp were GT spec.
Anyway sounds like you got a great deal and a super motor! :beer:
Hi Steve, theres no way the rexpeed fits over the factory part I've tried it they don't match up at all. it actually replaces the original one and thus is designed to be used with an aftermarket exhaust as the original tailpipes clip to the factory cover.
so I've put the install on the back...
Hey! There's not many folk can say they've driven a "car" on two wheels and survived to tell the tail! :crazy:
And I also rolled the thing and the only real damage other than scrapes to the paint we're the door handle filed down to the body work!
Horrible thing but boy did I have some laughs...
