Buying a genuine 370 nismo

[lee65]

Good evening 

after some time away I’m back and found a fantastic 370 nismo 

anyone know this car ? And paranoid question is it genuine nismo 

[ShortPaul]

Hi lee just looked at the advert if its not genuine then they have gone to a lot of trouble, i would say its genuine, i think horsham would be able to put your mind at rest. Why do you have doubts? 

[lee65]

Cheers bud 

only because I’ve heard horror stories of base cars being made into something else 

and adding ££££££ to the value 

that’s all 

it’was  in 1987 I purchased a 1983 escort supposed to be an xr3i for those that remember , but it wasn’t lol 

[pintopete58]

Yes i would say yes it's a nismo even has nismo on the clocks which is always a good sign.

Be alot of trouble to change it all

We were lucky to have those days with the limited amount of restrictions compared to todays restrictions, say no more🤣

It's certainly genuine, however the previous owner has done their best to ruin it. There's plenty of others around that price bracket/mileage that are stock.

There's a black nismo on ebay 24k 29000 miles cat n he says he's got receipts pictures of damage

@RDON  on this forum is selling an immaculate MK1 Nismo. Youd be silly to buy that ruined MK2 not even consider his.

Lots of Fismos floating about. Eurocar parts wouldn't have a clue. Also have had to contact DVLA to correct details of 2 Nismos so it could be that. Seems legit 🤔

I like Maxtons bodykits. Very simple and not overdone especially on the GT. The wraps a bit different. I can understand ppl wanting a different look.

[ShortPaul]

I don't dislike the black wrap, its different
