"Ultimate street sleeper!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing.

General comments?

I would never have thought of owning a Nissan Sunny until I test drove this little diamond all those years ago!

I was amazed that a car I had never really heard of could be so good!

Similar performance to my beloved old 205 1.9 GTI, handling only slightly sloppier, but so much more refined.

(A lot more reliable and cheaper to run as it transpires!)

I finally had to bin (literally) the nasty little 14" alloys.

Not only did they look like roller skates, but the unique fitment size tyres cost a fortune. Love this car to bits. I have just bought an Almera GTI on the strength of the Sunny, but I'm afraid that the Sunny is so good it stays! I have had no problems with the Sunny in 40,000 miles.

If you are lucky enough to find one that has not had to much of the 'Max Power' treatment-buy it, drive it, and love it!

Couldn't agree more. I purchased a mint 93 k with 122k on the clock for £1100. However, what I later found out was that the car had been used for development purposes at Shell lubricants and had spent over 85k of those miles on a dyno!! Thus I procured a 1 owner from new pampered gti which performs like new. Previous cars include Pug 1.9 gti, Integrale 8v and I have had more fun in the sunny than either of these cars!! Let the knockers mock whilst you leave them for dead at the lights!!

I bought a 1994 1.6sr in September 2002. I bought as a cheap run around, but has been the best car I have ever had. It is so reliable and has now done 90,000. Although the rear brake shoes now need replacing and I am having some difficulty finding the right ones for it. as there are a few different types.
