1990 Nissan Pintara GLi review from Australia and New Zealand
"Reliable good looking car"

License plate light failure,
Drivers seat broken,
Distributor worn out,
Exterior mirrors mechanism broken inside,
Faulty tape player.
General comments?
This car is not as quick for a 2 liter as I thought it might be. It struggles up hills and sometimes gets dragged by a 1990 Ford Laser 1.6 with 300,000 K's. Quite disappointing. It is dark red which is a very hard color to keep clean. It is reasonable on fuel, but is better now with a new distributor, rotor and leads. Suspension is good.
