Top Gear crashes England's only Nissan GT-R press car - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Filed under: Etc., Nissan

Top Gear has had its fair share of mishaps. There was that time the Stig took the Koenigsegg CCX on an off-track excursion, and of course Hammond's horrific crash in the jet dragster. The latest incident involves the one and only Nissan GT-R press car in Great Britain. Apparently it was involved in a fender bender in the Isle of Man after a photoshoot for Top Gear magazine. It seems that the GT-R wasn't damaged too badly, despite the pic of its naked arse above, and the same exact car ran up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed only a couple days later.

Damn, they are still using those shitty trunk vents?

MikeisNissan · 07-29-2008, 03:37 PM

So what happened?

memo92 · 07-29-2008, 03:47 PM

That's a good pic of the rear exhaust.

To the chaps at Top Gear I would like to say ... "How unlucky."

JEEBUS, that just hurt my soul a bit. Funny how just last night I was watching that episode where The Stig crashed that Koenigsegg CCX. It was funny how it "ate" a tire.

I can't wait to see this episode of how it crashed.

I remember Clarkson broke something in his back while testing out the new GT-R, now that says a lot and he has driven just about everything out there.

IIIXziuR · 09-23-2008, 05:54 AM

Salvage Title!! Har Har Har

CrazyTrance · 09-23-2008, 10:05 AM

hahahahahahahahaha

DUFFM4N · 09-23-2008, 12:07 PM

if you click on the picture, there's a lil article that tells you what happened

"The GTR was being reversed by a senor member of Top Gear magazine and the driver reversed at pace into an Audi R8 also being used on the test"

Landers · 09-25-2008, 06:19 AM

ouch!! too supercars getting fucked./

Black-Sheep · 10-12-2008, 01:34 PM

The R8 a supercar?
the Ford GT40, Z06, Porsche GT3 are supercars.... the R8? never!

i wonder if there is a topgear test between those two (R8 vs GT-R)...

SilviaDoctrine · 10-14-2008, 02:28 AM

Better stated, two really nice and expensive cars getting owned at the same time! I would feel horrible if I was the guy who crashed them.

I want a GT-R

Even though the rear end is messed up in the pic, the exhaust just looks sex.

160Z · 10-18-2008, 04:52 AM

Not so sure about the R8 either but it is nice and expensive
