1989 Nissan Sunny LS review from UK and Ireland
"A nippy reliable little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing yet (touch wood)
except the fuel line came loose as it had new ones on for its MOT, but that was their fault as they fitted it wrong. Its fine now.
General comments?
This car is a 12 valve 1.4 so it is pretty nippy with 85bhp standard so it will leave most other 1.4 cars and it's a high revving japanese engine.
I've had 115mph out of mine, but that was on a slight slope, 105mph on a dead straight no wind.
The steering is pretty heavy when going slow, but brilliant at normal speeds.
