Nissan Primera (2002 - 2006)
2.2 sve turbo diesel
A very good economical performer, which has been extremely reliable.
I bought this car from Ancaster in Croydon. It had belonged to one of their representatives and had done 29,000 miles in 11 months. It has now done 125,000 miles. It required a new turbo a few years ago, which was quite expensive at £1,450. I have found this car to give good performance and it has been very reliable. I have the vehicle serviced annually together with the MOT at Dicksons of Inverness. The servicing costs are reasonable and proportionate.
I required a car with a good sized boot to carry my golf clubs and electric trolley. It had to be a hatchback and not an estate for my golf equipment insurance. Unfortunately Nissan no longer produces a hatchback, so I will probably opt for a Skoda Octavia or Superb, when this car gives out.
