Those articles don't mention the UK but that may be because they originated on the continent, however, the timing fits with the GTR disappearing from the Nissan Uk website. I wonder if the reg changes were the need for an OPF or stricter CO2 levels perhaps.
UK Dealers weren't able to take orders towards late summer last year - Nissan UK would not accept them.
Then a month or so ago Nissan UK told dealers there would not be any cars coming after 1st July (or was it June) this year.
That left those with outstanding, and accepted, orders who I understand have been given delivery dates in May.
I guess the other deadline is to do with all new cars sold in the UK later this year must have a Speed Limiting function and there's nowhere to put that on the existing control configuration plus they dont want to do the ECU reprogramming.
I also heard (but not verified) that there are lower noise limits coming in later this year and again, they would have difficulty complying. The homologation process for new cars to meet new standards is very time consuming (and therefore expensive) and Nissan decided they wouldn't bother...
