Whilst im not the most active user on the forum and my Zed has been awaiting much needed attention sitting in the garage, I thought you guys might appreciate this. So i started a new job in sales at Nissan in december, So far loving it. We are what is known as a high performance center so we get all the bigger boys..370 and GTR, Being a massive car geek i love this. Sitting 5 feet away from a shiny GTR and Nismo 370z and GTR's in and out of the workshop ect.. Then much to my suprise I find out that each 'High Performance' dealership requires a 'Specialist' to sells these. After some pestering and shortly a shed load of training i am now officialy a 'GTR Specialist' which means i get this wicked buisness card and obviously get to drive it loads!

 

 

 

Excuse the naff picture, its just the proof i was sent yesterday

I'll pop in next time I'm visiting family in Cambridge (April), can I blag a passenger ride?! lol

Hello my local nissan dealer. When can I get a 48 hour test drive arranged?

I did the Nissan sales job for years, I enjoyed the product but Nissan UK is 80% motability Qashqais which is why I left. Now selling used Vauxhalls and earning 45k a year easily. Happy days

Which dealership are you? I just bought an 8 month old Insignia SRi VX-Line as my new daily hack from Southern Vauxhall in Merthyr - Stewart was the guy that sold it to me, top fella.

Good dealership to work for ...... Glyn is a really nice guy and loves his cars..... I used to be at Chelmsford Service department......

I must admit I miss it and the discount on OEM spares......... :innocent:

Congratulations on the position James......

As a parts manager for one of your rival dealers, can I just say....

 

Lucky git... Lol...

 

We're not a performance dealer so we only see the older stuff, bet you don't get many 240z and other datsuns like we do lol...

Sounds like an opportunity for a meet location and get a photo shoot with some Z32's on display with the newer beasts ;)

Congratulations James! Best wishes for your new role.

Dream job :thumbup:

Excellent. Just down the road. Hmm ;-)

Congratulations mate I can why you're so proud.

Congratulations, sounds like an awesome job :thumbup1:

 

ps. Can I have a free GT-R NISMO 2014 please :)

Congratulations James - and good luck in your new role!!

Thanks guys, I joked ages ago that this would be a dream job so really pleased. If anything to have conversations with other car enthusiasts that come in with an intrest in the 370 and GTR. The training and stuff is a bonus so I can geek it out. On a serious note, we have a new showroom which will be Nissan 's new concept showroom opening in the next few months...would be pretty cool to have some 300zx ' s for pictures and stuff?

Lets us know mate and ill pop around.just down the road for me.congrates

Amazing, I am going to have a word with the bosses and ask them about this and get something arranged. Would love to get some Z cars and older GT-R'S together for photos etc. . I am going to pester on other nissan forums to!

Can I bring mine too?
