Summary
What does this car say about you?
I wouldn't like to say in these times, although having the Nissan badge makes me feel less of a flash T*** than a Ferrari or Lamborghini badge.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Friends love it and so does my partner (who couldn't care less about cars).
Would you buy this car again and why?
Defiantly yes. Without a doubt.
What are you likely to buy next?
No idea. I'm still too excited about the GTR after 1400 miles. I plan to have some things done if a while when the warranty has expired. Seen a lot of tempting forum posts on 1000bhp projects!

Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchised
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£72,000
When did you buy the car?
May 2014
Did you get a good deal and why?
I think it was a good deal. It was pratically brand new with only 700 miles on the clock so not even run in. Saved a decent amount on the brand new price and it came with lots of extras.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
The performance, the technology, the looks.
What was the dealer like?
The dealer was at first fairly reserved with information or allowing me a test drive, being a young looking 23 year old who likes his cars I get that alot. But once he saw I wasn't a time waster he was nothing but helpful throughout the process.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Amazing! There's nothing else out there that can out do it. Immensely fast and and superbly precise. Surprisingly comfortable on long journeys. I nice cruiser but will never let you forget what it's capable of.
What's it like to park?
Never had a problem. Rear visibility isn't the best but parking sensors sort that out!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing yet. But i've only been driving it for a month.
What's most practical about your car?
I can use it every day. I bought this car as a weekend toy to compliment by everyday Evoque but since I picked her up she hasn't seen the garage. The evoque has been neglected! The boot is perfect for my needs.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The custom display is a nice boys toy, showing my cornering G and such. pretty much all the on-board technology is excellent, from the user interface to the stuff you don't see behind the scenes. The witchcraft which makes this car drive so brilliantly.
