Hi,

What do you guys make of the Nissan 200 SX. I have just sold mine and downgraded to a seat Ibiza (Damn credit crunch). I miss her so much!!!

Except the MPG!! LOL

200 BHP and LSD RWD as standard!! Can be picked up for buttons. By far the best car I have ever owned.

Why did the credit crunch (I hate the expression so much I can hardly use it) make you down grade? Anyway, moving from anything Jap, even from a Lexpuss 4,000,000.32 to a 1982 Polo 1.3 C bread van is moving up in the world.

I blame the credit crunch but in fact it was a mixture of rising fuel prices, and a change of job with further travelling etc etc.

Can't fault the Nissan in terms of reliability - however I do agree with the notion of better build quality of the Panzer Wagens!!

God I miss RWD tho!!!

Don't count on the build quality being better. My 96 Honda Accord's was much better than this 03 Passat. I admit the interior looks better on VW, but for rattles, creaks and flimsy door panels on the VW are unbelievable. I know not all VAG's are as bad though ;)

I like the 200sx, the SR20 engines are a really tuneable lump. Shame she had to go, should have bought a 'dub' though. ;)
