2001 Nissan Almera Tino reviews

Nissan Almera Tino S 2001

I’ve had this car for over a year now and I have replaced almost every electrical sensor on the damn thing. From the cat back exhaust, which only lasted around 18 months to the O2 sensors playing up repeatedly even after changing them twice. The parts are expensive and no one seems to stock them not even Nisssan, so if you break down you have a 2 day wait to get it going again. Nissan could have changed the wipers over so they didn’t back swipe water in front of your face as you drive. The front cross member rots through after a few years and is expensive to have replaced; I did mine myself for around £150 so I wouldnt want to guess what a garge would charge! A good car to drive when it is running ok, but there is a lot of body roll around corners due to it being a high sided car. The fuel consumption leaves a lot to be desired, I’m lucky if I get 30 mpg. It does have good acceleration though and will keep up with most things off the lights. There is loads of space in all its little storage holes and excellent boot space, with the storage nets being so handy in there.
