Nissan 200 SX (94-01) - Review

Review by Ben Wall on
If this sleek coupe suffered from one thing, it was that it was too anonymous looking, although it does offer a taste of the Skyline supercar. It's good to drive with a refined 2.0 turbo unit, responsive handling and because it’s relatively unknown, it’s great value. Touring pack includes extra airbag, body kit, CD autochanger and leather seats. Both models received a twin air-duct grille, redesigned front bumper/fascia and remote audio controls in Oct 96 and look considerably better for it.

Running costs

30mpg is perfectly reasonable to achieve and insurance is group 17 which is acceptable for the performance. Parts can be expensive but it is a Nissan, so you shouldn't need them often.
