Just put a deposit on a GT-R - pics added

[kindai]

Well.. *many sweary words here*

Did not expect that... but saw it... and had to have it, a 2010, 610HP, a lot of upgrades and extras added.

Just need to sell the z4 now to make room as I dont have room for 3 cars

Nissan GT-R? I saw it pre-release at Goodwood many years ago. That was love at first sit for me, but by the time I could afford one, they'd updated the car and reduced the ceiling height (or increased the seat height) so I could no longer comfortably fit inside.

Ha yes, the 307 was my first car, somewhat miss how completely inexpensive it was to maintain. Then got the z4 and freelander, now selling the z4 for a GTR

Business is good, and while the sun shines and all that, you only live once so may as well buy stuff to enjoy

Do GTR's have epic running costs?

 

[Armageus]

Do GTR's have epic running costs?

Tyres: 2k a set
MPG: 18 average
Tax: best part of 500
Servicing: 3 years included with new price, after that, expensive. (Here is an idea http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/Content/GTR_Servicing_parts_and_costs.pdf)
Brakes: 1k for a set of pads, 2-3k for discs

Yes

 

[Clarkey]

How do you make money out of forum software in the time where facebook has killed most of them off? I'm impressed.

 

[tsinc80697]

Those running costs JP said are vastly over the top now.

Tyres: £900 MPSS, £1200 MPSC2
MPG: 15-18 depending on tune
Tax: ~£500
Brakes: DS2500 Pads - £250 per axle. Discs £750 per axle.

Always wanted a GTR but the interior put me off completely. Otherwise fantastic machines, running costs seem par for the course for performance cars.

 

[tsinc80697]

I never had issues with the interior, I came from a 350z and before that a 1999 Fiesta so I had low expectations. I liked the interior to be very honest. I only had issues when I removed all the cats in the exhaust as things started to rattle like buggery

Good to see another developer get a GTR
