This car has not been produced for more than five years, but in the secondary market it shows genuine interest. The main reason for the increased attention to his “person” is the avant-garde and stylish design. Since 2002, Nissan Primera was produced for Europe in the UK, and it was from there that the cars came to Russia. It is interesting that the Old World did not accept the “Japanese” - the Europeans were pushed away by the too bold design of the machine. But our compatriots made Primera one of the leaders in sales, and the car was one of the three most popular and best-selling cars for three years.
Despite the rather modest technical specifications and capabilities, Nissan Primera is still successfully sold and “started” by the owners of various electronics and security systems, because the appearance of the car creates an image of an expensive and respectable car for him. By the way, the Primera interior is no less vanguard than the exterior: the instruments are located on the front panel (in the center), and the console looks like a horizontal ledge equipped with handles, controls and keys.
The car was produced in hatchback, sedan and station wagon bodies. The Russian market is dominated by gasoline Primera. By the way, cars of this brand were recognized not only as one of the best-selling, but also among the top five stolen cars. Therefore without it’s better not to try to leave the car for a long time unattended. In 2004, after modernization, most of the “inborn” defects of the car were eliminated. The modernization affected the engines, transmission, rear and front suspensions. At the same time, the Nissan Primera has not lost its practicality, especially for the station wagon and hatchback.
The used car is quite generous, regardless of the type of body. It can only be supplemented by a reliable gsm alarm system and a good sound system. Dealer versions are available in three versions: Elegance, Comfort and Tecna. Basic Comfort with warm mirrors, front power windows and a pair of airbags. The Elegance was complemented by cruise control, a rain sensor and alloy wheels. And the flagship Tekna was originally equipped with a tire air pressure sensor, CD changer and xenon headlights.
The weaknesses of Primera are unreliable engines of 2.0 and 1.8 liters, capricious electrics, original service and relatively expensive parts. In the suspension, ball bearings and stabilizer struts quickly wear out, although the remaining details can be called "long-livers." In the brake system, the rear calipers often wedge, which will need to be replaced with new ones.
