1999 Nissan Primera GT SE review from UK and Ireland
"This car is everything I always thought it would be, and then some,"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There is an annoying rattle on the rear view mirror, although the car has six months of warranty left, so i`ll try to get Nissan to change it.
There are a few rust spots, one is in a rear door weel, so it can`t be a stone chip, (Nissan`s excuse for the others).
Wear on the leather seats.
Not enough adjustment on the passenger seat.
General comments?
I have clocked a 0-60 in 7.7 seconds, just a little behind my cousin`s 106 gti.
I would have like the aluminium console trim around the dash too, I think this would have stood out a little more.
I can`t believe this car only has one air bag, that is really tight.
Personally, I believe that the best feature about the car, is the assured handling, I have scared a few passengers, but I myself have felt totally in control and safe. The special ed. has 205 16 tyres and i`m sure that this make a big difference.
