Never thought of myself as a 'blogger' but as i've come to enjoy reading through other's blogs, i thought i'd give back with one about my car - a 1998 Nissan Skyline R34 25GT in GV1 Black Pearl

I bought the car on August the 18th, 2009 from Power Road Carsales - a Japanese import dealer in Victoria - prior to this i had a pre-purchase inspection done by State Roads - an independent vehicle inspection company - she passed with flying colours
