Why when the general consensus is they are on the money?

Probably won't stop me buying one soon though

Jacey Boy · 23rd October 2009, 08:31 AM

I plan on buying one again when they are £30k, will be great car for that and cheaper to run by then...

Robbie J · 23rd October 2009, 08:36 AM

with so few around I'm not sure it will reduce that much...

look how long the R34 GTR keeps it value, 10 years on and still 20K

Jacey Boy · 23rd October 2009, 08:37 AM

R34 was different, not many UK ones and rest were imports, and not many at that, far more R35's on the road....

Robbie J · 23rd October 2009, 08:41 AM

and far more people want them... including most 33 and 34 drivers + new people

Jacey Boy · 23rd October 2009, 08:43 AM

Thats true, but there isnt that many people around who will pay £50k for one

How will it be cheaper to run. The tyres will be dearer, the servicing will be the same or more and you will have no warranty if something breaks

They will be 30K in 6 or 7 years not three. You have a long wait.

How is it then that the showrooms are not full of unsold cars. Plenty of people will pay that.

Tyres are already getting cheaper with more people making the size for them, servicing will get cheaper with more specialists popping up.....as for warranty, ever heard of extended?

They are already under £49k, plenty of people get bore quickly, there are 29 for sale on PH let alone AT

Roll on three years then. Can't wait to see you eating your words.

Yep roll on, you don't have to be telepathic to realise they WILL drop

Robbie J · 23rd October 2009, 04:17 PM

of course they will drop but if less get sold then there is less coming in the country to decrease in value....

unless the exchange rates change there will be unlikely influx of JDM models from Japan

I sold my 14a 200sx 2 years ago. the "book" value was 1600 quid I got 4K! I should have got more, the book was way out, even spoke to these people at a nissan event and they admitted that they don't understand the JDM market that well.

You got rid of yours because of warranty issues. Why would you want to extend one?.

You said the seats were crap. Will they be more comfy after three years.

You are very confused.

Quotes: Thank **** I sold my GTR, just couldnt be doing with all this warranty crap and huge running costs, good ridens

Mark, as said, was miffed with the lack of warranty, had Miltek Y Pipe fitted and this isnt even covered, just aload of crap with Nissan, I also dont do many miles so was struggling to use the car,...

My car came today, middlehurst delivered it, and love it!, need to get some miles on as im off to spain in 4 weeks, need to get it run in

...

Since I cancelled my GTR around 5 weeks back, I thought I had better go and try one of the UK versions, as I had driven the Jap car around Silverstone and whilst found it superb, it was bloody wet and couldnt really go mad.

I took Westovers demo out last week and couldnt stop smilling ever since, so yes you have guessed, I am getting back in line and buying one, I am waiting to see if Nissan will pull any strings to get me my original car back, if not I will have to suffer I suppose, but I also wont pay the extra 6% price increase, so if anyone knows a HPC where I can get a Black Black Edition new pre price rise let me know

Up and down like a whores drawers

Robbie J · 23rd October 2009, 04:35 PM

you buy a GTR to enjoy it not worry about it (sometimes I do)

once you are hooked you will unlikely leave it, for me I have the club and meets that have turned into good friends....

its a way of life, I know to a lot of people its just a car but to others like me its not so, we won't sell it so quick..... therefore they will be less on the market; simples

and I love my JDM seats.....
