You are importing the car to:
Import penalty (malus) in France
- The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
- For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
- Production ended in 2009: a car first registered before 1 January 2015 has no malus.

Cylindre récepteur concentrique d'embrayage
Severity 2/3 · CostlyLe cylindre récepteur concentrique (CSC) est placé dans la cloche de boîte. Son joint interne finit par fuir : perte de liquide puis impossibilité de débrayer, souvent brutale.

Manufacturer recalls

Inspection checklist
Nissan 350Z Z33 — inspection checklist
Things to check
- Contrôler l'état de la suspension (corrosion des triangles, bras et supports) sur un pont.
- Essayer l'embrayage à froid et à chaud : pédale molle, difficulté à passer les rapports, perte de liquide.
- Demander si le cylindre récepteur d'embrayage a déjà été remplacé (dépose de boîte).
- Vérifier l'historique d'entretien complet : vidanges du moteur et de la boîte.
- Se méfier des exemplaires modifiés (suralimentation, échappement) et exiger les factures.
Questions to ask the seller
- Le cylindre récepteur d'embrayage a-t-il été remplacé, et à quel kilométrage ?
- La suspension a-t-elle été contrôlée ou refaite récemment (corrosion) ?
- La voiture a-t-elle été modifiée, notamment au niveau du moteur ?
Test-drive tip: read the fault codes
A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.
