 kawasaki2's recommendation | |
Reliable engine and mechanical parts
Interior wears well
Engine servicing is cheap
Parts are expensive
My Nissan Sunny 2.0 GTI 16v Mine has a full dealer service history to 65k and has cost buttons to get up to 83k. The wheels are small so it turns quick but is skittish in the wet and not so good over pot holes. Also it does not rust easily and my mechanic says mine has no major rot problems and may go on for many more years.
Parts are expensive eg £87 for 5 or was it 7 rubber exhausts mountings and a simple bracket and £100 for an electric window regulator but servicing is cheap as long as you don't go to a main dealer. Front tyres don't last long eg 5000 miles but rear ones seem to last forever. I reckon if you shopped around Nissan dealers you could probably get parts cheaper, as I buy from a dealership that seems to have a stranglehold on the Scottish market, which is quite ironic as while franchising might counter monopolic manufacturer competition, it can create a lack of competition in the distribution side of the business, apparently.
I reckon it's a bit of a classic cause it's reliable, rare and goes to 6 in about 6.5 secs and cost little on servicing. It's also understated and can be tuned if that's what you want.
