Hell, yea. You should get an NC! I have an ND now, but would still be running my NC if I hadn't totalled it. Great hardy tranny allows for a bump up to the 2.5 engine. Relatively roomy, hydraulic assist steering and best of all, has no display screen! I like the styling, it recalls some classic forms for sports cars past. I especially like the PRHT.

Oh for sure man! What NC did you have and what engine and transmission did you have?

@@ThrottleFilmsTV 2013 GT 6sp 2 liter and had just replaced the suspension with Zeta CRDs. It was perfect! I miss that car as much as I love my ND. I don't know if you have seen, but Jason Cammisa on the Carmudgeon show, very much prefers the NC over the ND.

Couple of corrections here, it has a 50 litre tank capacity not 40 litre and the 1.8 engine does not have Variable Valve Timing VVT this is only fitted to the 2.0 litre variants. In case anyone is considering buying one. the position for the VVT solenoid is blanked off on the 1.8 litre. I own both and its easy to tell the difference. Brilliant well engineered cars.

I put over 180K miles on my 2013 GT with only routine maintenance before overcooking a corner and running it aground. Higher mileage should not be a prime consideration to worry about.

Very well said my friend! I'm not too fussed about mileage, it's the previous owner that you have to worry about! :)

yeah i feel like in the case of a lot of modern cars, they're more likely to get stolen or totaled in an accident before having a major failure (engine, transmission, etc.) unless someone is going out of their way to abuse a vehicle and is neglecting it on top of that. I would say 2013 is still a relatively newer year for cars but then again that was over 10 years ago. The mileage of the car in this video isn't even out of the ordinary though I would say, but maybe a little above average

Good video! I have a near identical car (But 2.0L U.S.) for track use with a lot of the modifications mentioned. I've had very little issue so far and think the NC1 is a great move if you want to get away from the early generations to a little more power while at a similar price point. Enjoy the car and hopefully this one treats you a little better than the last!

Thank you so much and yeah they are awesome cars! I drove the car within the video around the car park and it felt amazing compared to my Ford Fiesta, the Clutch and the gearbox is insane! Super excited to get one! I’m hoping to get a 2010-1012 one as they have slightly better features and upgraded stuff to the early NCs

I'll be getting one in 2027. Hopefully I can find a well kept unit then. I'd even pay ND money for an NC with a powered retractable top. Planned mods would be a very silent pipe, lifted suspension and 70 series A/T tires. And that's about all I'll do to the car.

That spoiler looks great. You can open the boot at any time by pressing the button on the lower dash, you don't have to turn the engine off, never heard of that. Also, the original puncture kit has one of those liquid tyre sealants along with the pump. I guess it can save you in an emergency.
