The Nissan Pulsar GTi-R Was A World Rally Special

There isn't much news to speak of this week, but we start things off with a conversation about what the next automotive trend is. The SUV/Crossover hype has been around for more than 10 years, and with manufacturers almost completely filling every niche segment and the arrival of EVs, what will cars look like in the near future? We also discuss the imminent arrival of the Proton X50, and a few global launches such as the new Peugeot 3008, Audi Q2 TFSI and an all-new Rolls-Royce Ghost.

 

As for our Used Car segment, an ultra-rare 1992 Nissan Pulsar GTi-R has come up on sale and has us wondering about its pedigree. It's a World Rally Championship homologation car: low volume, high power and lots of fun, but why doesn't it command the same respect that other hot hatches of the time do?
