Due to unforseen circumstances, I have to part with the following:

Nissan Skyline GTR R34 V-Spec (UK)

• May 2000 W registered
• 15,500 miles
• Middlehurst Power upgrade to 400BHP (Cams, ECU, Exhaust, Induction)
• Full Middlehurst Motorsport Service History
• 18,000 Service just done
• Car is just about as new

UK Spec Differences

• Le-Mans Specification Nismo Engine/Gearbox/Transfer Box
• Cooling System
• Nismo Upgrade to Multi Function Display giving Lap timer, G-Force meter and RS-232 link/software to download telemetry data, aka. MFD-II
• ’Stealth’ Kenwood 6-CD Sound System
• 3 Year Manufacturers Warranty
• 3 Year RAC Membership
• Connolly Leather Interior
• CAT1 Factory Alarm
• 200 MPH Speedo
• UK ECU

I still have the original invoice for the above, cringe - £58,000! Yours for..….… am I mad? ..….… £37,000K!

Apologies to all others who have similar cars – I can think of at least 7 of you! - this does not reflect the current market value of this car – I just need a quick sale! (I’ve got another car to sell too!)

I hope it's nothing serious that has made you need to sell your car.
What other car are you selling??

 

[Richard]

Richie,

No, not (directly) health related if that's what you meant. Thanks for asking, that's very kind of you.

It's Inland Revenue related - combination of 'uncreative' accountants and I haven't been working for the last six months. This being due to being lazy and the saturated IT market.

It's picking up now - well I'm starting work again tomorrow so all will be fine given time but for now I don't 'feel right' having an R34 (and a Porsche 996) when I have other more important things to deal with...

So the toys (which is what they are really) have to go!

As I've already mentioned, the other car is a LHD Porsche Carrera Tiptronic 996 1999 T 41,000 miles with a great number of options - it's a great car in its own right but of course (and I mean this sincerely) not a patch on the enjoyment factor of the Skyline. I only want £36K for that - original price £75K! (I'm the 2nd owner.)

In fact, I might post the details properly on here soon but I'll be advertising the cars in Topmarques asap.

Thanks all for reading this!

Richard.

Richard,

Oh no! I can't believe you're selling it. Hope everything goes well and you get a new one soon.

That is good to hear it's not health related. Sorry to hear you have to let go of those awesome cars , though.

Picture

Richard,

Sorry if i got your hopes up by posting !, I was wondering how you produced the picture of your fine car i.e only the car in focus, really draws the eye, don't seem an optical effect or am i wrong

[Richard]

No probs Dave!

I used Paint Shop Pro in this case so the instructions refer to that package but it's basically the same procedure for all.

Ok, the steps required are:

1. Select the 'freehand' tool then 'cut around' the car.
2. From the menu, go to: 'Selections, Invert'
3. From the menu, go to: 'Image, Blur, Gaussian Blur...'
4. Select a 'radius' of 10.00
   (This blurs the surrounding area.)
5. Then finish off by zooming close to the border between the blurred and non-blurred picture
6. Select the 'Retouch' tool
7. Get the "Control Palette" in view
8. Set the 'Retouch mode' = "Soften"
9. Set the 'Brush Tip' to an appropriate size
10. Retouch all around the border to provide a smooth, seamless finish.
    [/list=1]
    Hope that's ok!
    
    Richard.

Only because this car deserves a mention, for what it's worth I've seen this car in the flesh a couple of times and I am astounded at the low price it's up for, for it is in perfect condition.

Good car here, don't miss out. If it was blue, I would not hesitate.

Come on guys, a UK car with 400 conversion for £37k!!!!

Cem,

Thanks very much for the vote of support. Unfortunately, it is probably too late - the car has packed its bags...

Can't believe it but I will probably be R34-less by this evening - it is a very sad day for me.

car now sold...

Cheer Up Richard

The silver lining to selling your GT-R is you can buy another one when things are sorted out
