1985 Nissan Sentra review from North America
"Trusty and economical"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front axles, radiator, windshield fluid pump, rear defrost, rear windsheild wiper, horn, hazard lights, clock, and the sensor light was always on.
General comments?
Got this car from a friend. He'd kept it in good repair. Ran beautifully in the spring, summer, early autumn. 30+mpg. Great pick-up for it's age and mileage. Shook at 70mph. Only reason I don't have it now is a friend crashed it. Else I wouldn't be getting another car. Tended to eat a little oil though.
