1988 Nissan Skyline R31 review from Australia and New Zealand
"A quality vehicle for a cheap price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After a years of towing from the previous owner, the diff has starting making a clunking sound after a gear change, and sometimes when I take my foot off the accelerator.
The window seal in the back left window has broken.
The odometer has stopped working.
The dash lights are starting to die.
General comments?
This car is perfect for a first car owner.
The steering is almost perfect.
It has incredible speed, the best I have got it up to was 170KPH and I could've got it faster, but I felt bad for giving the car a thrashing.
The car has a decent looking interior.
