1997 Nissan Primera SXI review from UK and Ireland
"Brilliant engineering fantastic reliability very long life cycle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Starter Motor at 85000 miles.
General comments?
Its done 149000 miles and only one real car stopping fault (starter motor).
Everything else like tyres and brakes seem to last well.
This has been a fantastic reliable car and my daughter now has one as well.
Still drives well after all those miles and would not hesitate to take it on a driving tour round Europe with total confidence.
Will be buying another one, but who knows when as this one just keeps on rolling on.
