1986/87 Nissan 300C, D350YLU (1989)
John Powell photo.
One of my favourites amongst the the photos I've purchased so far. The tag on the plate and sticker on the Manta suggests it was taken on the forecourt of New Garage which was located at Steam Mills Road, Cinderford, Glos.
When it was new the list price was somewhere between £12,499-12,995, but within 3-4 years it had dropped by over half.
Not trace of D350YLU on any of the online databases I've searched, so maybe it got re-registered at some point? Looks very smart anyway, better than any of my 300Cs did....
The Opel Manta GT/E in the background was Car of the Week. DVLA says C799HUP only lasted to 1991, written-off or maybe even stolen?
Photo taken on what looks like a rather nice evening (or maybe early morning?) on 19/8/89. Back then I was driving a 1983 Sunny and was some years away from the luxury and power of a 300C.
