Question Would You Pay £**** for this?

Nissan R33 GTR Skyline V Spec,

1995, white,

20 000 miles. 4wd ,

standard

Mint condition

MOT and TAX - 12 months

ok, it's white and maybe an Import ..... so, not to everyones taste.

Its a 1995 car so not worth much I wouldn't think?

It has a price - just wondering at what price I should be interested ??

Seems interesting??

I'm sure the turbo comes on boost way above 3000rpm Pete, so what's the point

Fuel is ok for me really, I was just wondering having it as a plaything??

It is kind of plaything money actually ..... its 11 years old for heavens sake!! OK, mileage is low and genuine, but .......

I haven't missed a £* at all!!

And it's TING TONG ... not PING PONG!!

My MX5 is worth about £4k, it's a 1995 car too - but with 60k miles .... thought about adding the extra couple of £1000 for the miles and maybe swapping??

I simply haven't a clue about these cars - just don't want to get stitched up .... it's a distress sale.

Pete,

On a serious note, it's worth taking a look on the Skyline register/forum, like Scoobynet, it's full of usefull info.

Normally Pete; <£10,000 = ****epile. The keen observer will notice that only K**ghley Trade Centre has an R33 GTR available for under that figure. Draw your own conclusions.....

Pete, as long as the car is mechanicaly sound, it should be ok,you know the normal stuff,gearbox ok with no strange noises,turbo good ?,engine no smoke anywhere with a good service history, Hpi checked? Brakes in a straight line, blah blah, blah....

A lot these cars havent seen an easy life,so at the end of the day it's down to you,they're not the best car for MPG but nicely built.

Knowing its history, yes, I think it may well be.

It's been sitting in a garage for a while waiting for the legallities to be sorted out - a figure has been plucked out of the sky by the relatives for it, clearly as no-one involved in the sale has a clue (very much like me!!) They are not at all interested in cars ...... and think I am because I have one with an Air-Dam thing and a Sports Car for sunny days

I'll just tell them to ring a Trader/Dealer from the AutoTrader - one that takes anything ....... it's an 11 year old banger for heavens sake!

Yes it is a bargain, but I was merely having a sarcastic dig at Pete's usual comments about Japanese import cars!
