Nissan Skyline GT-R

This is one of the vehicles I photographed at the Footman James Classic Car Show Manchester at EventCity in September 2018.

There was no information displayed about the car, but it's a Second Generation Nissan Skyline GT-R which has a 6-cylinder inline 1,989cc engine. The original GT-R was very successful in Japanese touring car racing, but the Second Generation car was introduced in 1972 just as a petrol crisis reduced the demand for high performance cars and only 197 were produced before production ended in 1973.
