Do you kwow the history of the car?
As far as I know the GQ diesel was never sold by Nissan in SA.
So there are only a handfull of them around.
Keen to see the pictures. Does it have the more common chrome grill or black?

Looking at the registration papers and after researching the engine number, it seems it is actually a 1991 model.

Zantus, I must admit I cannot make out this picture with the "muddy on the back"
It looks like the tyre is bigger than the wheel arch. What is going on in this picture?
Thanks

aitog .. julle sal NIE goeie speurders ondersoekbeamptes uitmaaknie .. Daai 'muddy' wiel is 'n ander wiel as wat oppi GQ is, teen sy bestaande wiel gesit om die verskil in grootte uit te wys en dalk te maat of die groeter taaijir gaan pas op daai GQ, :biggrin:
