Estimate: €350,000 - €450,000 EUR

  • Delivered new in Japan
  • Desirable limited-edition last-of-the-line model
  • Registered in Germany since February 2024

The car we offer belongs to the Skyline GT-R's fifth (and final) generation, the BNR34, which was produced between January 1999 and August 2002. The newcomer was shorter than its BNR33 predecessor, while the 2.6-litre inline six-cylinder twin-turbocharged engine now featured cam covers finished in bright Cherry Red. Inside the cockpit there was a new multifunction display of engine and chassis data, while the V-spec model's also monitored intake and exhaust gas temperatures. The V-spec (Victory Specification) also came with Nissan's ATTESA E-TS Pro all-wheel drive system and an active limited-slip differential.

In October 2000 the V-spec was superseded by the V-spec II, which featured stiffer suspension, larger brakes, and a ducted carbon-fibre bonnet among a host of other advances. What would be the final iteration of this famous family arrived in February 2002 in the form of the Skyline GT-R V-spec II Nür, its name referring to the fearsome Nürburgring racetrack in Germany where the car was developed. The Nür's most significant upgrade was its engine, which was based on the N1 racing unit and featured larger turbochargers and stronger internals.

Nür models also came with a speedometer reading up to 300km/h (186mph); gold-coloured cam covers instead of red; and a gold-coloured VIN plate instead of silver. To conform with Japanese regulations for passenger vehicles at the time, the GT-R was advertised as having a maximum power output of 206kW (276bhp) whereas its actual output was over 246kW (330bhp). When production ceased in August 2002 a total of 718 V-spec II Nür models had been built.

Finished in QM1 White, this highly desirable last-of-the-line model features privacy glass, satellite navigation and six loudspeakers. It also comes equipped with the following Nismo (Nissan Motorsports) components: S-tune front bumper; side and rear skirts; MFD (Multi Function Display); and gear shift knob.

The car was built in April 2002 and first registered in Osaka, Japan later that same month at zero kilometre. Its first registration mark was 'Osaka 399 Te 1000'. A technical inspection was carried out on 9th May 2005 at 4,900 kilometres, and again on 18th April 2007 at 6,200 kilometres. On 13th December 2007 the Skyline was auctioned at USS Tokyo, rated as Auction Grade 4.5 (very good).

On 6th March 2008 ownership was transferred to Enman Co Ltd in Osaka (likely a pre-export holding) and on 10th September 2008 the car was officially deregistered in Japan for export. On 8th February 2024 a preregistration inspection was carried out by GTÜ in Germany, and 19 days later was registered to the current owner in Landkreis Peine, Germany (license plate: 'PE Y 1075'). On 3rd July 2024 a major service was carried out by Motikon. The current odometer reading is 8,959 kilometres.

Finale of the Skyline GT-R family, the V-Spec II Nür is one of the most technologically advanced of the many variants, which over the years have been largely responsible for establishing Nissan's not inconsiderable reputation as a frontline performance brand.

Please note this lot will be subject to additional VAT on the hammer price and buyer's premium.
