1998 Nissan Primera GT review from UK and Ireland
"Low cost. High reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1 interior light bulb.
General comments?
After enjoying four years of Nissan Skyline ownership I duly considered a Primera GT as a lower cost alternative whilst still enjoying some of the driving benefits.
I had heard good things about the type and in particular the SR20DE power plant, I was not disappointed.
With a full leather pack and limited edition green/purple paint the car is a dream to drive, if markedly softer suspension than that which I was used to. I plan to remedy the issue soon with a new suspension package and maybe some smarter boots.
All in all though, this model is highly recommended and I am certainly glad that I went for the slightly older model over a lower spec 'new' shape.
