1985 Nissan Bluebird TRX Series 3 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Good enough to drive home in"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Master Cylinder seized replacing at 180000.
Original horn has failed.
Seat-belts starting to deteriorate.
Gauges are intermittent.
Car idles exceptionally high (1.5-2k rpm), despite adjusting the idle control.
General comments?
This car is comfortable, and hasn't caused me too many problems, considering the amount of driving I do.
The interior looks like a scene out of "Night-Rider" because of the array of lights and controls.
Seats are exceptionally comfortable, and the car handles well, especially around corners.
Visibility is good, and the car is easy to drive, despite the lack of power steering.
