1997 Nissan Primera SRi review from UK and Ireland
"Would definitely buy another one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drive-shaft snapped 2 weeks after I bought the car.
Failed MOT on two faulty ABS sensors (Not cheap to replace!!)
General comments?
Bought the SRI as I couldn't afford the insurance on a GT. I was pleasantly surprised with the power and handling of the car; most of my previous cars been 5dr hatchbacks also. The Primera is the best car so far!!
Fantastic around corners in the dry and in the wet, if you have good tyres.
Loads of room in the cabin (I'm 6'4" and all my friends are 6' plus, and there is plenty of room for all!!!)
Boot-space massive (enough for 16 crates of beer at least (this I have tested!) )
Fuel economy not fantastic, but that could be the way I drive! When taking it easy I get about 30-32 mpg about town and about 40 mpg on the motorway.
