1990 Nissan Stanza XE review from North America
"This is a highly reliable and comfortable vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?

165000 miles- Replaced Timing Chain & serpentine belts.
166000 miles- Replaced Rear Struts.

General comments?
This car has performed much more reliably than I could ever have hoped for. There is still no slop in the steering. The seats are still comfortable. The engine has yet to feel tired.
Compared to my Volkswagen GTI (which was FUN!), this car has been much more reliable.
