Been after a GTR from 2011 when I drove one at a track day.
The hunt was properly on this last year or so and with summer on the way I thought now was the time to strike.
Found one a few weeks ago for sale in Westover Nissan in Bournemouth and was offered a pretty good deal on it so paid a deposit over the phone and flew over 2 days later to collect.

Car is a 2016 Recaro edition which had only 5300 miles when I picked it up but the journey home and a few local scoots and its now at almost 6200.

No plans for it other than to get a new plate for it, enjoy it and try to keep it in the condition I bought it!

Taking a while to get used to though, as it's quite a bit different from the Scirocco I had previously!

Here's a few random pics I've taken over the last week or so.

Ps. The Aston is my mates, but there's no room for it in his garage so I get to keep it in mine and pretend I own both lol

Thanks people!
Anyone able to recommend a good place to get it washed, in or not far from Belfast? I can't be bothered doing it myself but obviously don't wanna just throw it into one of the roadside car washes...

Nice looking. I’d consider going for one of these in future but I don’t think it would go in my garage door, had a rs5 in it and that was cosy on the wings

Hard to beat a GTR in grey. I'd love one at some point but they seem to hold their money really well.

This was the exact reason I kept putting off getting one too! Mine just about fits through the garage door but it's a clinical operation of backing it in an inch a time, until the mirrors are at the door, then fold the mirrors in, go back a bit more until they're through, open the mirrors back out and then slowly back it in until the front bumper is cleared. Saying that, it's worth the hassle lol
