Your photos always wind me up lol. Number 1 - you always cut out a tiny bit of the car. Number 2 - you've self proclaimed theyre good. Number 3 - your entire car is missing in one photo!Found a new spot to take some pics today! They came out rather well!

Yes a 2001 UK spec R34 GTR v-spec
I'm envious! 1 of my all time favourite cars, i've owned an R32 and an R33 GTR, R34 way beyond my budget unfortunately. The value of them has sky rocketed afaik.

Yeh I bought it 9 years ago when they were sensible money. I'll put some more pics up later.
More pics would be great. I think the R34 is peak GTR. OK the R35 is faster as standard but imo they just don't look as good as the R34, especially in the colour you have (or midnight purple).
I remember when I was loaned one for a couple of months, UK Bayside blue Vspec car with around 70k miles could have had it for £23,000, instead got myself in an M3 CSL for £27,000 which I then sold for £23,000, two cars which are both now 100k plus, lol.

There is a white R34 just parked on the street near me, I see it every morning on the way to work. It doesn't get driven often. Although I think it is imported as it was registered in 2006 (I done a MOT history check). Only done like 3,000 miles in the past year.

Even R32 GTR V-Specs were around ten grand and the same with R33 V-Specs (My favourite).

Yeah only now do I have money to splash and everything has gone loopy. If I was in the same financial situation now but with car prices ten years ago I could have had the holy trinity of R32/33 GTR, RX7 and GTO. Now I could just about afford one of them

About 8 years ago I could have afforded at least one of my "halo cars" but didn't have the driving experience / age behind me to be able to insure them etc.
Now I can't afford any of them... Elise 111R was like 10K, now they are what, 25K..? AE86 were gettable for 7 - 8K now they are 25 - 40K...
When I got my E30 in 2016 I had the option to spend 1K more and get a metallic blue E28 M535i instead (so 1.8K), but I passed on it because it had almost 300,000 miles. Bleh.
