1985 Nissan Bluebird Ventura review from Australia and New Zealand
"Cheap and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced thermostat in radiator as soon as I purchased the car.
Boot seals went a little off.
General comments?
Engine has original seals/ties?, If car is well maintained it will be an excellent reliable car.
This car tends to lack power. A set of twin SU's will fix this problem if installed correctly.
This car is extremely cheap on fuel, and its confert levels are extraordinary.
I have had this car for almost two years and have noticed nothing wrong with it.
Installed a two inch single muffler sports exhaust system, this gave it a beautiful sound. Like an MG.
