SUMMARY

Very original, low mileage late R33 GT-R Series III V-Spec.

DESCRIPTION

We believe the next GT-R to catch the wind is the R33 GT-R V-Spec Series III in its final evolution in 1997. The V-Spec stood for Victory Specification, referencing the car's upgrades that bought so many Group N and Group A race victories. Besides the mechanical upgrades for racing that included new oil coolers for the engine gearbox and the revised differential, the V-Spec featured a larger front spoiler, Xenon headlights, reversing lights and red stitching in the cockpit. 
 
We are proud to offer this R33 GT-R V-Spec late-Series III in Motorsport White. It was imported here in mid 2021 and our vendor is the first UK owner and has enjoyed the GT-R for only just over a 1,000km, having formed part of his Collection. With the exception of the 18" centre-lock style wheels, it's a very original example with all the correct paperwork from Japan and, importantly, it's supplied with its BIMTA Certificate confirming the very low-mileage of 35,750 (57,200km) and part-Japanese service history. The car's appearance is enhanced by some Nismo goodies including floor mats, a gearshift knob, fuel filler and the oil filler cap.

It benefits from a recent wheel refurb with a set of new Michelins, a very recent MOT with 'No Advisories', and a full service including belts and fluids by Japanese specialists, Autotorque, in Bicester with an invoice in the history file for £1,700. .

Very few of these late-Series III V-Spec cars in original condition come to market and, with the soaring values of Japanese Domestic Market cars and GT-R R34s achieving substantial amounts, the R33 V-Spec will surely follow suit.
