General Comments:

This is a fine car. I was just surprised with the car's handling. I was expecting much better handling from this Nissan Primera. I guess that is the low point for it.

The performance is fine, but nothing amazingly brilliant, and this car doesn't know the meaning of "fuel economy" it seems to me...

Faults:

Knocking in the front suspension.

Alternator replaced.

Back shocks.

General Comments:

Beautiful car to drive - even with almost 120,000 on the clock.

Faults:

2 outer CV joints needed replacing - approx £80 each for non OE parts, easy to fit apart from removal and refitting of ABS ring to new joints.

Handbrake cable snapped - rear RH cable required, £50 for part from dealership.

2 rear dampers required.

General Comments:

Oil changed every 6000 miles - no oil consumed between changes.

Car has a high mileage but doesn't show it.

Very firm suspension allows little body roll - excellent on smooth roads, however can become slightly skittish when driven quickly on bumpy country roads.

Engine needs to be revved to make the most of the performance. Similar performance to most normal 2.0 litre cars until 6000rpm. 6000 - 7500 is where the engine really pulls. 70mph achievable in 2nd!

Paid £2000 for the car and very pleased with it.

Faults:

The garage I bought it from (not dealership) incorrectly tightened the auxillary drive belts breaking (over a distance of 15k) the alternator. The water pump also died. My carb is getting hesitant (a well known flaw), and I need a new radiator (too much 'tailgating' has led to stones removing most of the fins).

General Comments:

The car's been excellent. Handles like a go kart, and it's the fastest 1.6 I've ever seen.

Prices for spare parts are stupidly high and is my only real problem with Nissan. The spares prices need to be halved.

Faults:

CV joints.

Discs & pads wear out fast.

Excellent car to drive. Handles great.

Top car.
