Priceless GT-Rs! Rally 240Zs! Nissan’s Huge JDM Heritage Collection

Some manufactures have museums full of old cars you can’t get near, others have sold off the back catalogue when times were tight. And Nissan? Nissan keeps the lot, keeps them running, and lets you get up close and personal with them!

This all happens in the Zama Heritage Car Garage, in Japan, where hundreds of Nissans (and Datsuns) from the company’s 90-year history are lovingly looked after.

There are diddy cars from the early years, tech-laden concepts, all manner of wonderful rally and race cars, plus Skylines and GT-Rs galore.

Join Top Gear Magazine’s Associate Editor, Tom Ford, for a tour of this amazing place…
