The first generation Laurel C30 rolled out in 1968 was an innovative vehicle, different from Bluebird 510 and Cedric 130, that created a new category of "the car for high-class owners".
One of the features was advanced technologies such as G18 engine (1800cc, 4-cyl. inline, OHC of cross-flow type), 4-wheel independent suspension of strut/semi trailing arm, and rack-and-pinion steering. Its stately and elegant form was also a selling point. A model with G20 engine (2000cc) and a model of Nissan's first pillar-less 2-door hardtop were added in 1970.
This car is 2000GX of the highest grade in hardtop series with vinyl chloride leather roof that was in fashion at the time.
