    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Value, well I paid £4K for a car that I have done 170mph in. It goes like stink, stops well and puts a whopping great smile on your face. Value, I'd say

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Performance cars cost more money to keep them on the road than a Mondeo. So don't expect Mondeo prices, then again it's cheaper to run than a Porche, TVR or any other performance car for that matter

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    The car handles like a dream even though it is 10 years old. In fact it puts many modern cars to shame

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    All the other stuff about the car is great, then you put your foot down, the turbos are only small, so they respond very quickly, then you feel your rear being pushed back further into the seat, the scenery becomes a blur, in 5 seconds you are speeding

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    Treat any car properly to regular servicing and they look after you, the 300zx is no exception.

    I don't care who you are, when people say "nice car mate" you smile

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    The cloth interior is probably the worse part about teh car, but the seats are good, the ride is sound, but not too harsh and you are not so low it's a pain to get in and out off

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    It's a Targa, so safer than a convirtable, but what car is truly safe

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0
