Hi folks - greetings from England..!

Mascot · 07-06-2009, 12:30 PM

Just wanted to say hi. The 370z hits UK dealers this month and I'm pretty sure I'll be trading in my 330ci for one within the next few weeks. This forum seems to be 99% NA members at the moment but I'm guessing that might change as other markets open up. The discussions here seem interesting and the debates seem nicely balanced, so I think these forums will be a valuable resource for help, tips and advice.

In case anyone is interested, the UK spec and price points are currently as follows:

prices and spec

and the official UK e-brochure can be downloaded here.

Catch you around. I'm off to reinforce a stereotype and have tea and crumpets with the Queen.

Hello Mascot - nice to have you here - I've been working hard for the past few months, trying to teach these foreigners a bit of English. Tally ho* old bean - and toodle pip, what ho*.

* in England, the term "Ho" does not mean "Whore", unless you are a member of the younger generation who are sadly immersed in the worst aspects of your American 'street culture'.

Let the grammar wars, however useless between cultures, begin!

Thanks for the welcome, chaps..! Getting a bit frustrated with Nissan UK and the Bristol and Cardiff dealerships in particular at the moment. They either don't know very much about the 370z or they are reluctant to sell them...

EDIT: BTW, I've had an email regarding this post from a shohan83@msn.com which hotmail is advising me against opening. Is this a member on these boards, or a virus hack?
