Nissan Primera Saloon 1.8 16V Sport 4d (2000/X) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Novice button pushers will like this, and with security features a bargain. But do Haggle more with the salesman. I wish it would have electric seats, I find knobs a pain.
Costs
Going from a diesel to petrol again noticed the running costs (doing about 500 miles a week). But reliability hopes to prove to be cost effective.

On the road
Driving
Only owning 3 cars, and driving 5 this is the best so far, just not impressed when I've gone the wrong way and need to turn around.
Performance
Well it's no GTi, but it does ok for a tank on wheels. Fourth gear seems to be useless.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems so far mechanically. Only the stereo is crap, and the multichanger was replaced.
Image
I like the saloon wannabe coupe image it promotes. I can look Great from some angles, and poor from other angles. Hidden exhaust and colour coded almost everthing. Only looks good in sporty colours, otherwise all angles look bad. Any green looks crap.
Comfort
Plenty of space is always a neccesity for me, in which this does ok, but the seats are a little harder than I like.
-
Security and Service
Security
Well it seems to have good security features, not had them tested thank the Lord! The extra security touch on the remote locking can get annoying.
Service
If service is always like this from a main dealer, then I will always buy from one.
