The Nissan Almera Tino 1800 SE is an good allround car, unless you want to break the sound barrier,
reliability: v good, this car has excellent build quality, and is very comfortable, the gear change is very precise, and will cruise all day at 70+MPH and will return MPG figures of 43 if driven with a modicome of intelligence.
I have owned a tino for over four years and have done most of the ongoing maintenance myself.

Since buying this car I have been pleasantly surprised by the way this car handles, it is very reliable, very comfortable even after driving for a few hundred miles, and the body work is well put together.
An excellent family car, with very good engine and gearbox, the brakes are 9 out of 10.

I bought my Nissan Almera Tino in 2002 when it was just under a year old.
It is a lovely smooth car to drive with a good responsive engine. a fairly smooth and positive gearbox and exceptional brakes. Even for a short driver like myself (5' 6") it has good visibility all round and is easy to drive.
I dislike the body roll and the excessive "dive" under even moderate braking. Also, I find the front seats unsupportive both laterally and in the lumbar region. I can't relax as a passenger in...

I bought one 2 weeks ago and i'm really pleased with it. Don't agree with the body roll opinion, mine is fine and stable in corners. I like the seat height even though it seems weird at first but it's comfortable and increases visibility more than you realise. I do predict having to do something about the thin layer of scratch easy paint, maybe a blow over in the same colour in a few years with kids being kids. Only other thing is not being able to see the front of the car at all, not even any part of the bonnet, just makes you more likely to reverse into parking spaces and make use of the dashboard tv screen and rear camera, I think the local bin men have the same thing in their lorry!

I've just bought one. Agree about wheel arches but not harsh braking - that's about right on mine. Main objection is the wind and tyre noise. Diesel is also quite noisy.
