    I was laughing at the whole rear view camera bit, but this car happened to be 6 years older than I though.

    I always liked that P12 Primera, and even at today it looks bold and modern.

    Wow, very nice to see this. I have a 2007 interior facelift version, fully equipped 2.0 manual. Just perfect to this day

      2006. is the last production year and it was sold until 2008. ....I have 2.0, not perfect, but still more than ok condition for its age.

    I got one of these! It's a T-Spec 2.0 with the cream/tan leather. It's comfy, nice to waft around in and has a much more luxurious feel than the Nissan name suggests. Excellent motorway munching ability too, being quiet and smooth. I mainly it bought it for the Star Trek vibes of the interior. The exterior grows on me more and more the longer I own it. Must have been pretty badass having adaptive cruise control for under £20k in 2002. It tends to drink fuel on short journeys, but gets 35-40mpg on the motorway. Underrated!

    Why do car reviews not mention important things like does it have a timing chain? does it have a dual mass fly wheel? does it have disc brakes all round? does it have independent suspension?. These seem a good used buy, and the styling still looks pretty fresh. A current Toyota Auris or Prius doesn't look much more modern.

    Shares some switchgear with my N16 Almera. Even has the same (now retro) sat nav. No rear view camera though. The centre instruments are a great idea. Begs the question why Nissan didn't carry on with that in their future models. 🤔

      CockatooDude yes very unreliable since day one. And at 80kmh it started to shake like crazy. It wasn’t so nice in long journies. The problem was never solved and after four years he changed to toyota.

    • @CockatooDude
      @CockatooDude 5 років тому

      @@TheLeewi98 Usually when a car shakes at speed, all you have to do is get the wheels balanced. Was that the only real issue with the car, or were there other problems, like things breaking on it or engine components failing?

    • @TheLeewi98
      @TheLeewi98 5 років тому +1

      CockatooDude Well I believe that the wheels were aligned multiple times. Because even the factory wheels and tires were replaced by the factory but the shacking never completely stopped. The car seemed to have other problems but to be honest I don’t remember everything it had wrong since I was so young and my dad doesn’t talk alot about that car.

    I often drove these from a hire company. They leased cars that dealers couldn't shift and this nissan was a dreadful car. Horrible menu based control over everything from fan speed to radio control. Felt like sitting in a bath tub. No wonder it was a flop.
