Now available on Racemarket, this Nissan Navara is more than just a race car — it’s a genuine piece of Dakar heritage. Built by Nissan Motorsport and driven by rally legend Kenjiro Shinozuka alongside Thierry Delli Zotti in the 2003 Dakar Rally, the car represents a unique chapter in Nissan’s off-road racing legacy.
Though it didn’t finish the event due to a crash, the car was fully rebuilt by Nissan Motorsport in South Africa before being sold to its current owner in Portugal, where it’s now offered for sale.
Under the hood is a Nissan VQ35DE engine paired with a Ricardo gearbox — both recently rebuilt and with zero kilometers since. The car features a Donerre suspension system, AP Racing brakes, and Braid wheels, ensuring it’s ready for serious off-road performance.
It comes as shown in the listing photos, along with a valuable spares package that includes a second engine and gearbox — an excellent addition for collectors or teams looking to run or preserve this rare machine.
Located in Portugal. Inspections welcome. Serious enquiries only.
