Not a GTR but it is Nutmeg, it is factory, it is original, and it is bloody brown.

Let me guess, you're looking at the nutmeg metallic (originally) GTR on eBay? (I was too).

Someone on here (Bazza I think) emailed me a couple of old photos of a car in that colour, if you want them PM me your email address and I'll forward them on.

and it was unrestored the pics make it look mint.

Interesting, that does sound like the same car I was talking about. It's on the market again!

I'm not a fan of the colour... but would probably still consider buying it more seriously if it was a bit cheaper (though it's probably cheap for what it is, it's just a bit too far away and needs a bit of work...and I want something I can modify which I'd prefer not to do to a proper GTR!)

wonder if this is the car that was on the cover of an old 1980 ish "Restored Cars" magazine.

I am sure there is others on here that have a copy of the mag

Yeah Torry Nut got that Mag. Found out some how there was a copy out there and got a back issue. Orr come on the colour isn't that bad. I suppose I have had nearly 30 years to get used to it.

Id say that would be one rare color/trim combo?

Pitty they didn't make Plumdinger cars with purple trim hey gong? :D

yep!

they could have been a bit more adventurous with the XU1 interiors thats for sure

Why were the GTR's the only ones with strange combos ?
