Dads Monaro 5.7 VXR is for sale

[fcuk1_6]

Having given up on the idea of finding an official VXR 500 (looked for ages to no avail) my dad has just put a deposit down on a Nissan R35 GTR. Hes tasked me with try to sell his 5.7 VXR on.
Its black with 44k miles and full Vauxhall service history, HPi clear, taxed and MOTd until Oct 2010 and was bought by my dad preregistered. Hes looking for £12,900 for it.
Its up on pistonheads, see link: www.pistonheads.com/sales/1394605.htm

kiwifraser might be keen, but I think he might prefer silver
Not sure why he sold his in the first place..

[fcuk1_6]

[fcuk1_6]

the email function doesnt seem to be working when I go into his profile, dont know if its blocked or something on my work computer, could you possibly do me a huge favour and drop him a wee email link to this?

GTR...? Why, does he not like driving...? All the ones I know off or have spoken to have sold theirs after a very short period of time as its fast but ever so boring to drive. He would be better off asking on this forum if any big HP cars are for sale.

Also if you go near a track buy buy warrenty, if you turn off the traction control and bye bye warrenty, if you mod it and buy buy warranty, launch it and bye bye warranty...

Whats the point having a car like that and not being able to do anything with it unless you a seriously rich

[fcuk1_6]

He likes a nice car thats easy to drive but fast, also not too flashy. He has no intention in turning off traction control or launching it, its a daily driver not track car.
Please keep in mind that this is a thread to try to sell his VXR not to discuss his new purchase. Please keep spam to a minimum.

Actually mate, I dont think you are supposed to advertise cars for sale in there. So we are helping you by making the thread go off track

Fancy going ricer after the Monaro anyway. Let's hope the pedestrian safety feature doesn't activate.

[fcuk1_6]

I was unaware of the no sales rule, thanks and sorry. Yeh I read a thing about the pedestrian safety thing activating on a gtr, nissan UK are on the case for over/wrongly priced parts

[ARAF]

I don't see a problem with the price of parts on the GTR. The low basic price of the car is the problem - just for Nissan to get a foothold in a new market. If it was sold at the price it cost (with a modest profit) then it would be in Fezza territory, and those drivers think nothing of blowing £2k on an air diffuser because they have scraped the old one on a speed hump, or £4k for it's annual service, as the engine has to come out to change timing belts....

[fcuk1_6]

No-one?

[Magic919]

It's a bit of an owners forum. Meaning we've mostly bought already. Try the classifieds. It's a rare and sought-after model.

Id buy it at the right price
Currently too expensive for me..
