1989 Nissan Bluebird GS review from UK and Ireland
"Totally bullet proof and will probably live longer than me!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator sprung a leak (wear and tear)
Brake pipes had to be changed (just its age!)
General comments?
What a brilliant car, I've had quite a few Nissan and earlier Datsun cars, but this is the best yet, totally reliable starts 1st time every time no matter what the weather is like.
Fuel consumption is not that good compared to modern cars, but then it does weigh about as much as your average house! But at least its built to last unlike modern junk!
Very well equipped (electric everything) and very comfortable even after a very long journey, i would trust this car to go anywhere... not bad for a 17yr old car!
Cornering and handling is much better if you fit wider tyres (185/65-14)
