I am gearing up for a GTR purchase. Looking for a new model. It appears as if 2016 cars with 16k on the clock are going for £63-64k. 2017 models are sitting at £70k and new cars with the spec I want are £82k from carwow. New Nissans now attract a 6% interest charge on finance.

There is a fair drop in price from new, i.e. £82k to £63k for a 2016 model, approx £20k in 2 years. I would not want to stomach this loss myself.

Is there merit in buying new apart from the warranty? Is there much wiggle room on the GTR? I cant imagine it is worth the full asking price less the £5k dealer contribution they are offering on finance.

Any ideas on how Nissan work with discounts and finance? Any guidance would be welcomed.

Buy as used 17 model low to mid 60’s and save yourself the 20k hit. You will still have 18 months warranty left. I’ve had five now and generally they are very reliable. The 17 model is a step up, better compliance for every day but nicely shaper than previous model when required!

I’m in a 17 model and love the thing thumbup

That is a good plan. Looking to pick up one which is 18 months old for £60-65k.

I see you're in Essex. What part?

That Noble on your profile is lush. Such a beautiful colour.

That's not far at all.

I took a 2018 GTR for a test drive at Nissan Romford. That's where i was left wanting more.

Is it really that bad on a long tour?
