That Nissan GTR was just out there on its own.....May not be my type of car but respect where it's due........

Datsun rightly described as an "instrument".......*YUK*.....

Pointless but fun car-train......scum class does exist.....outside bog....brill

Frank...Nissan not for me but you can not ... not be impressed by what they have achieved....That is one fast car.......

 

[Parisien]

Fast car = good

Fast Datsun = not interested.......

Well, hats off to TG, the past 2 episodes have been brilliant, sort of back to basics. They are testing proper cars and their silly trials are entertainment and dont appear too contrived.

Rowen was a brilliant guest, have been getting fed up with all these C list celebs of the past.

Long may it continue.

They just need to have the Cool Wall more regularly.

The GTR interests me the more I see it. When I saw it honing round the track I was stunned at the grip and acceleration.

 

[Parisien]

.....were we watching the same episode Matt??????!!!!

The petrolhead in us gets excited by it.

But you will surely go through the same cycle as me: attraction - investigation - hesitation - rejection.

The GT-R is your Sam Fox, the Maserati is your Sophia Loren.

I got back from a wedding in birmingham, a man had a GTR there, hes had ot for 3 years & hes had every ferrari bmw you can get, he loves it and is now waiting for the new one.....best hes ever owned and driven he says....

 

[BennyD]

I can believe it. Without doubt THE best value performance car on the planet.

Yes Benny....No competition....69k for a car that will eat cars costing well over 200k.....As a petrolhead with a lottery win I think you would have to have one of these cars in your garage...Like it or not it's awesome.

Yep Top gear as we remember it , best format returning to its roots , now re the GTR , this old fart feesl kinda vindicated after getting slated on the other thread , if they were to get rid of all that plastic, add a few chioce cow hides to the interior for sure a superb winning marque , Dastun or no datsun heritage ,

Short memories we have .........................! twas Dastun that gave us electric windows , car radio's heated rear screens as standard guys , they were the true innovators of giving the masses want they wanted for the right price seems they might of hit on another winner in my book

[Andyk]

And the Cherry Loz........Ummmmmmmmmmm

 

[lozcb]

And the Cherry Loz........Ummmmmmmmmmm

[Andyk]

Aren't all Jags like that....;-)

 

[Easyplan66]

If they added a but more style to the GTR it could be a stunning car for £90k

 

[Andyk]

I like the rear end of the car to be honest.....There is one in Chepstow and I always think it has presence when I see it...

Yeah...but were the wedding guests drooling over it...think it was the bees knees....commented on its look, design, heritage.....expensive look?

Short answer........
