1983 Nissan Pulsar GL review from Australia and New Zealand
"Go the Pulsar"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bought with very minor oil leak...negligible.
Driver's seat backrest is now loose.
Exhaust + muffler are loose, causing rattling sound at certain revs.
General comments?
A very reliable car, handles well, responsive and efficient.
Even though the car has done nearly half a million miles, the engine is still running well, no smoke or excess oil consumption.
Good for trips around Australia.
