Hello 370Z world.... just got a 2010 model 370Z GT Convertible in Le-Mans Blue from the Jag Dealer in Carlisle with 15,000 on the clock. My last car was a 2.7 Boxster and before that a Scooby STi, however this is the quickest, best looking car with a much higher spec than the previous 2 combined, distinctive looks too and a relatively rare model (I haven't seen a conv model 370 yet and have been looking actively so I can give them a wave!) . 2 slight concerns so far though.... 1) Derby dealer says the touch up paint is not available and just gave me code "RAE" and said to go to Halfords of a body-shop to get some made up!? 2) Getting a significant "judder" thru' steering wheel when braking hard at speed so looks like f/discs may be shot.... surely not at 15,000 miles (tyre wear good), Sccoby and Porker discs lasted well over 30,000. Any comments advice welcomed plus interested in your MPG's out there, I have been takin it pretty steady with varied driving and it shows 23.1 on the computer. Cheers, Mike
