1986 Nissan Stanza Wagon review from North America
"I love this car, it's got a lot of character and it's got a Nissan heart, so it'll run forever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel injectors gummed up, car would not run! 249,000.
Water in headlight.
Sliding door gets stuck occasionally.
Parts are almost impossible to find nowadays.
General comments?
Very comfortable seating.
Roomy interior is great for hauling kids.
Sliding doors are heaven for loading and unloading bulky items.
Gas mileage is great.
Unique body style was way ahead of its time, xB anyone?
Quite perky pick up for a 4-cylinder.
