1997 Nissan Primera GX review from UK and Ireland
"A top class bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There was a fault in the air conditioning wiring. It took some diagnosing!
Annoying rattle on the dashboard.
'Doors open' light not working.
Other than that, nothing.
General comments?
I'm not sure why this car has such a bad image reputation. I actually think it's quite stylish.
Performance is okay, but you have to give it some beans, then it shifts reasonably well for a 1.6 with a heavy body.
Very quiet cabin. Comfortable seats, sensible instruments.
Why is there no door lock on passenger side?
Great value car which is seriously underrated. I bought my high mileage Primera complete with full history, not a blemish and a factory 6cd autochanger R registration for £2000.
