Out with the old

So - why is my little 'zilla for sale I hear you ask?

Simple - I plan to create an even more impressive car, but need to raise the wonga, the moola, the zlotti first. Already the first step in my master plan is winging it's way here - or rather: floating, but that sounds rather less impressive :-(

Introductions

OK, this is a blog about Skyline's.

No, not what you see when you look out of your window; the car made famous by Japanese Touring Car racing and more recently by the Gran Tourismo series of computer games (remember those heady days of playing GT2 on the PS1?)

Specifically I have an R32 GT-R - the original 'Godzilla' of the Japanese performance tuning scene.

I've always been into performance cars, I've had in chronological order:

MX-5 Mk1 'Classic' Special Edition
Lotus Elise Mk1
Porsche Boxster 2.5
TVR Chimaera 450
Porsche 968 Club Sport
Porsche 964 Carrera 2
BMW E30 M3 Evo2

So you could say I'm a completely obsessed car nut!
