    Ring AMEC and ask

    Pre-purchase inspections vary according to instructions/thoroughness.

    BTW: you want a leak-down comp test.

    ok so not buying it..he hasnt got enough time to get the smoke checked (has to sell it this week) so he's gonna sell it to some other dude which is all good..he was a really nice dude...but there are plenty of better condition z's out there so i'm gonna go over to slacks creek to motorman imports and have a look...anybody bought from there before?

    check out what I got buddy.do the same thing

    I scoured the earth for an immaculate condition Z and hit the desperate car dealers widely.The ones that have cars worth 200 grand but have a Z aswell kind of thing.It seems theyre that concerned about all the other cars(I never seen so many rich people in my life in one place!)that the car they sold me(i had to wait 2 hrs to be seen)they didnt know much about it at all..It was 16 grand and I got em down to 12...on an immaculate 2 seater tt..no dents at all no rust interior looks new...full service history and a 3 yr unlimited km warranty!(mind you watch those its just up to a grand for anything)heres some pics dude![​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    mind you aske me next mnth and ill probably be whining about it!just the risks u take im afraid!happy boosting!

    well i would prefer a manual but it doesn't have to be..if it's in good condition and everything i could live with an auto..the place has a manual in silver as well with '77000 km' (most likely 100 000 +) so i'll have a look over there..5 z's to choose from

    lol well the sale fell through for the original car i was looking at (the one i made this thread about) and now he's offering it to me for 10 grand..he's taken it to a performance mechanic place and the white smoke has gone from the exhaust and a compression test was done and everything was normal..

    theres always after market warranties and i feel more comfortable buying privately when it comes to z's..dont' trust dealers
