RE: Nissan GT-R Litchfield Track Edition: First look

[Gandahar]

It really is an icon. Really like seeing them on the road.

My one issue is that they have excess bulk, especially around the bum. If they could make the 36 version 3/4 size and just crammed the new gen hardware in it, then it would be another great car.


The R34 version manages to look heavy but small, if you see what I mean, such a great car. Evo and Scoobies looked flimsy compared to it.

Is a new version in the works?

Litchfield to Nissan should be like Alpina to BMW. I’d like to see s breathed on Litchfield QQ or XT or Micra. 200+ brake, iconic alloy wheels and styling kit. Sold through the dealer network. I am sure there is demand for performance Nissans

Does this type of modification ultimately detract from the value of the car? In 20 years will people shy away from a Litchfield modded car or will it really be seen as Alpina is to BMW? I can't help but think an unmolested car will be seen as more desirable.....I'm sure I will now be put right!

Happy to oblige...



One of the few pics I have under 2MB, that doesn’t appear upside down when I upload it!

The GTR is inching its way up the price bracket and into territory normally fielded by prestige brands. Good luck to them, and I've not got any personal issue with it, other than observing it in marketing terms.

I suspect for a lot of people, the image means a lot.

Not sure this is a direction I'm personally interested though. I believe in the bang for buck, value for money proposition. A liter bike is £10k, quicker in a straight line, and arguably more fun. That leaves £90k to put a tin roof over my head for the DD. Possible?

Been a while since you bought a new 1000cc bike?

Lovely. The Rays really suit the GTR.

To be fair, you can get 1.2 litre bikes for £12k new like my Thruxton R. Saying that although it's fast to 100mph it would get it's arse kicked afterward lol

Silver? Love silver in the GTR, and very unusual colour for a TP.

It was the only one that colour in the UK until Litchfield ordered one.
I’d like to think that they saw pics of mine and couldn’t resist ;-)
