Spec R for sale (UK)

HOW MUCH?!

Mis-advertising...

 

[Nicely]

For you Aussies, that's $56k...

 

[sushiming]

they must be joking at that price who in the world would buy it tho??

 

[elizium]

a tad on the expensive side... almost what it would cost in Russia

 

[Yakozan]

A bit expensive
It seems to be one of the last Silvias made.
And very low mileage. A car in this condition would be very expensive in Japan.

But not that expensive

 

[Nicely]

Its a good example, but they can't seriously expect to get more than about ?18k for it....

The last ones were made in 2001, though sales continued in Oz until 2002.

Ok. Thought the last was -02 and this one was sold -03.
Then this must have been made -01 and sold -03

When I was searching for a car in Japan, I saw that the very low mileage, high-grade (5) and late-model S15s was sheit-expensive.
They are pretty rare, especially if it's not pewter or white.

I think ?18k seems about right for this one.
They could probobly get away with ?20k being a Nissan dealer and all

 

[Nicely]

That price is higher than they retailed new in Oz...

That was more than I knew
But you have to think about that the S15 has held it's value very good.
And not to mention freight, VAT, ESVA and so on. So I still think around ?18-?20k would be a fair price for this S15 pending if you're a Nissan dealer or not

 

[Meddy]

Have to agree with Yako here. That car would have been absolutely stupid money at auction. When I was bidding for mine late platers were going straight through my ceiling of getting the car into UK and on the road of 15k on a regular basis. So for them to get it and then bring it in and want to make main dealer profit 18-20 would seem about right. Mad but about right.

 

[Nicely]

Yes, but paying a fortune at a Jap auction doesn't automatically mean people will pay that here... ?18k maybe, but any higher and people will just get a newer 350Z.

 

[sushiming]

very good point plus with 24k u can get a SKyline GTR with that.........

Im not saying that Id pay it or even that anyone else will, only that the price isnt beyond the bounds of reason. If you tried to get a car of that standard in yourself and on the road excluding dealer profits I think it would be hard for 18k.

 

[S15R]

the last were made in july 2002, JDM, ADM, NZDM. we still got them in 2003 but only a few

probably a very rare one and its a 2003 sold, didnt even think that it will last that long lol

 

[Nicely]

Were they actually manufactured until then, or registered?

Nissan GB would like you to believe the S14a was manufactured until 2001. They could hardly get away with admitting to selling three year old cars as new....

 

[Nicely]

This is the last S15 in FAST (the copy that everyone has)

 

[sushiming]

nicely meaning to get fast how can i get that??
cheers
edit just seen it

 

[S15R]

the last s15s are made in july 2002,

Nissan AU bring in quite a few in 2002 so they could sell them in 2003 aswell, but too many were sold already by the end of 2002 so not many s15 here registered in 2003

so if this JDM S15 registered in 2003 in Japan, the 1st owner is one lucky bastard

 

[sushiming]

not anymore hehee

 

[S15R]

haha its in UK now
