"A hugely underated RS KILLER"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

In the space of time I have had the car the pistons have gone and the turbo has packed in. Fifth gear on the gear box went, the starter packed up plus many other faults.

Despite these faults which have all been rectified as and when they occur, the car still drives like new.

General comments?

This car is hugely underrated in all respects, it is faster than anything in its class. It handles like a dream, and apart from wear and tear the car is hugely reliable now.

I can't see my self ever selling my car as it is in good condition and I think it is worth restoring!!

I am a proud new owner of a Nissan Cherry "Milan" from 1985. I am glad to read such great reviews of the Nissan Cherry. Being of female persuasion, I am not privy to all kinds of technical data - but the car sure eats the highway here in Denmark.

I have been scouring the net for any information about this model - the Milan - but can't find any. Is the ZX somewhat the same model?? I know the Milan has a 1500 cc motor.

The perfect story - I bought this car, which is in mint condition, driven by an old lady for 15 years - for an amazingly low price. Any hints on maintenence?? I have only had the car since June 9th, but I love it... Colour is a really neat yellow and black, electric sun-roof, bucket seats, snazzy steering wheel - and thick pile carpet (still intact!!)
