1995 Nissan Sunny 1.6 SR review from UK and Ireland
"An under powered slug"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The clutch has gone several times.
The head gasket had to be replaced at 80,000 miles.
Jumped out of fifth gear.
Both drive shafts went after a night of wheel spinning.
Electric windows have stopped twice.
General comments?
I was highly disappointed with the performance. My previous car which was a KIA pride went just as well. When you see a 205 G.T.I. come up behind just pull over even if it's a 1.6. Also beware of metro's, they are probably faster. All though this car is nothing performance wise it is quite reliable. Nissan really do let down the Japanese.
If your looking for a family car it's great, otherwise don't buy it.
