2007 Nissan Tiida 1.6 petrol from Jordan

Summary:

Great car for the price. I like it

Faults:

Some creaking noises from the plastic parts, especially in the cold weather, and sounds from the windows sometimes. These sounds are noticeable only when there is no street noise.

General Comments:

The handling is great, and the car has good power.

Very reliable, never let me down, and I drove more than 70,000 with it.

Maintenance till now was only normal wear stuff, like brakes; nothing major.

Driver's seat can get a little bit uncomfortable for long hours of driving.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

2007 Nissan Tiida M Series Hatchback 1.6 Gas from Trinidad and Tobago

Summary:

For limited driving on smooth roads only

Faults:

Well this car was purchased in Trinidad, and the performance of the car is rather good, however the braking system was not the best designed one.

The calipers stick and were changed by the dealers.

The fuel gauge stopped working twice and had to be changed.

The fan belt was changed twice in the first year and a half of ownership.

Gas consumption for this vehicle is rather high.

The car is rather sensitive to potholes and rough road, and the alignment has to adjusted ever so often.

I changed the drum brakes at 45,000 km, which is ridiculous.

General Comments:

The car is a great looking car, and has great performance and features, especially the comfort. However the maintenance cost is rather high.

I would not recommend this car for the person who drives a lot, because maintenance and service would come every month, as in a case where driving per day equals 100km per day.

The car did not come with mats and splash (mud) guards, as well as the scuff guard for the rear bumper.

The original sound system cannot play MP3, so I changed that system and added in one with USB capabilities in the front, as well as all the other options that I mentioned were missing.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
