1988 Nissan Pintara EXE review from Australia and New Zealand
"Very nice to drive. Will just keep going"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only just bought it so hard to tell so far, but...
Gear Box a little clunky.
Front seat head rests can be a slight blind spot when reversing
Air Conditioning needs a service
Radio and speakers need replacing.
General comments?
Very impressed by it so far. It is very economical (about 500 or so k's to a tank) and it has a fair bit of zip left in it. The one I bought is in excellent condition now and I hear they keep going strong for many years and kilometers, so I look forward to a long life with it. It is a big car, but it doesn't feel like it when you drive it. The power steering helps this. It is comfortable. Very functional, ideal for a family, but still looks good enough for young people.
