Badged as Pulsar in Japan and Sunny in Europe, the N14 GTI-R was a homologation variant built between 1990 and 1994 to enable Nissan to participate in the World Rally Championship under Group A. Distinguished from the standard hatchback by its large rear wing and bonnet scoop, the model was powered by a 2-litre turbocharged engine producing some 227hp and was capable of 0-60mph in around 5 seconds with a top speed of c.144mph.

Finished in grey with black interior, this low mileage 'Umbrella' model was imported c.1998 and has been in dry storage between 2013 and April 2016. In December 2015 new sills were fitted and the underside undersealed. The engine and differential oils were changed in April this year and new coolant added. Described as having "very good" bodywork with "good" paintwork and interior, which benefits from the fitment of Recaro front seats, the vendor advises the air-conditioning is currently not working. Gearchanges are said to be "smooth" and a new clutch was fitted prior to the car being stored in 2013. The engine is described as "good". Offered with Swansea V5C document and current MoT to 15 April 2017. An HPI check shows the car was the subject of a Category D insurance claim in May 2001 although no further details are available.
