1996 Nissan 100NX review from UK and Ireland
"Great car! Love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I bought the car, it had not been looked after at all. Went in for the test when I just bought it; oil leaking, clutch gone, rear shocks gone, seat insecure, rear anti-roll bar bushes gone, and the brake pads and discs were worn down to the last. I fixed all of this (thinking it was a stupid idea), and there has been absolutely nothing that's gone wrong with it since.
General comments?
For a 1.6 it's pretty quick considering it does 0-60mph in about 9 odd seconds, acceleration is brilliant.
After fixing all the stuff on the car, I couldn't part with it, even after a few offers on it!
I felt rather reluctant to get a 96 one. Great fun during the summer with the roof panels off.
Goes on a sniff of petrol, even if you drive it a bit hard. Looks great, and handles quite well for its height off the ground with the 15" wheels.
