Been having a play in the Nissan 370Z (above), which I hadn’t had the chance to drive before now. It’s got a slightly shorter wheelbase than the axed 350Z and uses more lightweight materials. I reckon it looks better too; the striking design and its overall proportions just work more effectively. The car is powered by a front-mounted 3.7-litre V6 that pumps out 331bhp. Press the start/stop button and it burbles into life, and power delivery is impressive all the way to the 7,500rpm redline. If you’re looking for practicality, this is not the car for you. The boot is shallow, the door bins are tiny and there’s only room for a couple of soft bags behind the two seats. But if you want something that’s rare enough on UK roads to still be a real head-turner, the 370Z is perfect. And there will be a roadster version along in the spring.
