1997 Nissan 200SX SE review from North America
"One purchase I will never regret!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I was surprised to read in another review that the dash lights flickered because that is the same problem I had with my Nissan! I took it to the dealer twice for this which drove me crazy at night not being able to see my dash. they said they had to disconnect/disable the key-less entry that the previous owner put in so that the lights would not flicker anymore. it still happens occasionally so apparently that wasn't the problem. I have had this car 8 yrs, its got 35k on it and its barely cost me anything at all in maintenance. i did have a flat tire and found out the spare is just a donut so keep that in mind. no space in the back for a REAL tire. better keep a few cans of fix a flat with you at all times.
General comments?
This car is small inside, but extremely reliable and nearly hassle free!
