1987 Nissan Pintara GXE review from Australia and New Zealand

"Good Reliable Car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The odometer stopped working about a week after I bought it, speedo still works though. Overdrive/powershift option hasn't worked since I bought it. It isn't slow, but when you try to drive faster in it the rpm get to about 5-6 before changing gear making the whole car shake and it makes everyone look at you cause it is really loud. Hasn't got to good of a pull on hills have to use the kick down switch a lot to maintain speed on hills, but once using the kick down switch the car gains speed quiet rapidly for a 4 cylinder.

General comments?

Good comfortable car, I use the kick down switch a lot to maintain speeds and to gain further speeds. The tyres are crap, but that is not the cars fault. starts first time every time never stalls, has some good get up and go for a 4 cylinder of its size and age. Compared to a Skyline it has excellent fuel consumption, but not as good as acceleration, but what do you expect it's a 4 cylinder. Not a car for someone who intends to race it unless you add a turbo.
