1994 Nissan Sunny XLS 1.6 twin-cam

Summary:

A basic car, nothing exciting

Faults:

The rear shocks were replaced.

The driver's seat was crooked and half loose.

General Comments:

A very basic car.

It was silver, had gray plastic interior, the seats were gray, everything was gray, and the car even smelled gray.

The sort of car a Soviet tax collector would drive. This thing was just a dreary, cloudy Tuesday made into a car.

Just my humble, subjective opinion here. Cars such as this may be reliable, practical, use barely any gas, and even (sometimes) last for a very long time.. but because of their complete lack of character and the apparent inability of their designers to give them a hint of style or personality, I wouldn't want one even if you paid me for it.

Even though most people view cars as that simple 'going from A to B', mere-transportation-and-nothing-more thing, I would equate sitting in a gray, bland interior every day, like having to work in a little concrete walled cubicle, as opposed to the plush, comfy, wood paneled office my 1977 Triumph 2000 sedates me with each morning.

Such little things make quite a difference, or am I just being too much of a subjective wa*ker?

1994 Nissan Sunny SR 1.6 twin cam 16v

Summary:

One of the best!

Faults:

Nothing has gone wrong except I had to change the clutch which is normal for a car driven approximately 96,000.

General Comments:

I love my Sunny SR, it's one of the best cars that I've driven.

My car is red with dark rear windows and a red sunstrip on the front. My rear lights are black, and even though it's illegal, my front lights are red, which I think is very cool.

1992 Nissan Sunny SLX 1.6 twin cam 16 valve

Summary:

Very reliable and nice...

Faults:

Nothing has gone wrong really, apart from the air circulation switch, which is stuck. I have replaced all 4 shocks but it wasn't really necessary, I just want everything to be in top shape...

General Comments:

Very reliable and good looking car. I was going for the SR model which has a sporty interior and spoilers, but I couldn't find one at a reasonable price. Finally I found this one, with very low mileage so I bought it. I've put 205-50-15 tyres, nice alloys and tinted windows and now it really looks groovy. Good engine, but I really miss the fuel injection of the '93+ model. I think the fuel consumption is a bit high for a 1.6, probably due to the lack of injection.

I'm very happy with the car, but I plan on replacing it soon, probably with a Almera GTI...

These cars are so easy to resell here in Iceland, I think they have the highest resale value here, which is good. :)
