The new pride and joy, it would seem. Nice one, and good work sourcing a manual.

Nice one, I like the high rear spoilers they look smart IMO

We have just got Simon another wagon too ready for pick-up on Wednesday. I think its ugly, but he likes it. Also silver and fully optioned. I wanted him to buy a Subi GTB if he was going down the power route

Nissan Stagea>> Edited by kylie on Monday 20th February 02:49


yeah my Dads just trying to sell his Stagea actually, '97 2.5 neo n/a 4wd. very very thirsty - makes my old Subie seem like a Toyota Corolla (talking 13+L/100km around town, maybe 10-11 open road being gentle). last time he came down to visit he brought the work commode instead, it used $20 less fuel for Timaru-Dunedin and back with a bit of pootling round. does go pretty good though, but for that fuel economy you may as well be driving a GTB, and going faster.

www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Cars/Nissan/auction-47459355.htm this is his.

Nice enough cars, but I still prefer the Subies.
