2006 Nissan Primera SVE review from UK and Ireland
"Reliable, but not inspiring to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far working very well although there is a funny rattling type soung under medium to hard acceleration coming from engine bay.
General comments?
Good comfortable car with plenty of toys mine has all the usual bit sat nav, leather seats so for the money compared to similar spec cars in this range is very good. One point though is that the 1.6
petrol engine is seriously underpowered so is the 1.8 I've driven before. Other cars in this class with this size engine don't seem to suffer as badly, overtaking can be a highly dangerous manoeuvre so with this car patience is a virtue.
This car is OK on go go juice, but with the weight of the car compared to to size/power of the engines avail if pushed you can see th MPG figures drop dramatically. To finish it's a reliable car with modern looks, plenty of kit, but if your in a hurry buy my previous car, Impreza WRX PPP, wife forced me to sell mine reminded me I'm not twenty something anymore. Oh Well!!
