Thank you for the video! I hope you enjoy watching it. My P10 2.0Tm MT. I started driving it in 1992. It's been 370,000km since I started, and I still use it to commute every day in Japan! Run, turn, stop. Its straightness feels good. Multi-link suspension. Toughness of SR20DE. Exhaust sound from the muffler. You'll never get bored with it. Excellent design, by Mr. Maezawa. It’s a style called "temporal durability" . I am in love with the quality of the engine! I will continue to use it carefully. I will keep going!
That's great! Thank you for watching the video. It is really nice to hear from someone in Japan who has a P10. The SR20 is a great engine. "Temporal Durability", I did not know about that. It is amazing you have been driving it for 32 years!
Wow, that is a lovely piece of automotive history right there. Grew up seeing cars like this and now I love them. Those were the days where you'd get lovely cloth seats whereas now everything is leather and you have no option! Hate leather. This owner has kept it so pristine looks like it's just rolled off the production line, mint 👌🏾👌🏾
This was our family car. It was in dark blue color and had the 1,6lt engine. Very comfortable and reliable car. Thank you for this video, it brought me back some good memories.
I bought a brand new P10 eGT 150hp in 1990, when they just came out. It was a wonderful car to drive, going strong and hitting 138mph without any problems. Actually I think it could handle 100hp more to be honest as the chassis was quite stiff and suspension well thought out. Well, I did upgrade the wheels to a bigger rim and larger tires and lower the springs. This was in Belgium and I’d cross the border and go to the autobahn to fully enjoy it. Great memories…
Cheers Lee. The P11 is a great car too, I drove the one pictured in this video up to Scotland and back, it was a comfortable relaxing drive and yet a hoot in the bends too.
I really miss my '92 P10 Primera eGT Saloon. More than I miss my E30. It was the first car I paid for and at £600 for a car that could hit 138mph it was pretty great. Lovely high revving red top SR20DE motor circa 150ps and superb handling for a car that looked like a taxi.
@@JJonCars yeah I mean it had done 140k when I bought it, and it was 14 years old, but still, great for the money! Cost me double to insure it at that time... Now I have a Mondeo I bought for £5k, 5 years ago, also proving great value for money but, while faster (it's the 2.5T Titanium X Sport) and still engaging enough to drive, you can feel the difference in weight - over 200kg difference... The Primera just felt more agile and the closest I got in more modern relatively practical cars is the gen 1 BK Mazda 3 2.0 Sport Saloon. Same horsepower, revvy chain driven engine etc. It wasn't perfect but it got me through a 3000 mile road trip. It was also more reliable than the Mondeo is!

Great video! I can't believe I gave a Nissan video a thumb up, I grew up in a small town where the only car dealer was a Nissan showroom, and hence the streets were filled with various, less-flattering variations of Nissans. Also, a lot of folks from local steel mill traded their old Ladas into Micras back then, thus the brand got a bit of bad image in my mind. Driving a few of Nissans of that time didn't improve my impression either, LOL! Ironically, I now drive a T31 X-Trail. However, I like seeing these throwback videos, with the car media nowadays focusing FAR too much on electrification of the powertrain and fancy apps via massive touchscreen. If you ever get to test a Mk8 Mitsubishi Galant for example, I'd definitely watch it! ;-)
Thanks Janne! Very interesting. I don't remember the last time I saw any form of Gallant on the road here in the UK, but would love to if I got the chance :) it's really nice to drive cars that aren't full of distractions. Steering wheel, pedals, a few buttons for heat controls and music. All you need 😄

i’m owning a p10 hatchback with carburated 1.6 with manual gearbox. It’s absolutely gorgeous and amazing car, I really really love it. It’s such a pleasure to drive it. Unfortunately the car is in a bad condition. I swear to God one day i’ll get enough money to make this car beautiful like from the factory. Honestly i’m thinking about getting a sedan to make it 2.0 gt version
@@JJonCars Splendid it's the right word cause to me, it was. No problems at all for almost 4 years. A friend saw it and buyed it, even tho i didn't want to sell it.
There might be a lot of these first-gen Primeras somewhere in the rural areas of Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Senegal, The Gambia etc. as bush taxis that transport people from villages to market towns via dirt or muddy roads. The cars which have been deemed to be not roadworthy anymore due to accidents or failing to pass MOTs in various European countries, might find a second life in Africa still being driven in various conditions or as refurbished spare parts for Nissan models that share the same platform as the Primera.
@@JJonCars True. That's probably bcoz Toyotas are most common car brands in all African brands. Beat-up Corollas, Hiaces, Hiluxs, Yaris are commonly sighted over there.
@@JJonCars I think only in Cameroon where there are several old Nissan Pulsars being used as taxis. Not sure if they are brought in to the country when they are fresh & brand new, or brought in as refurbished/reconditioned fleet cars
@@JJonCars was a run about for working on sight up and down to london from yorkshire that's all filled it with tools and the lads save ruining my daily drive payed next to nothing for it 2 years later after getting stick from every one becuase it looked terrible I got shit but it was comfy nippy ish and just a tank. Oh yeah it became my daily drive.
Not very sharp steering, have a feeling maybe something is wrong with it. Had 2 P10's back in the day, one was a 1.6 1992 fitted with a carb and it wasn't fast, but the steering and handling were really good. The car was way better than the Mondeo, Vectra, Avensis or whatever back then. Because of the handling. The other one I owned was a 2.0 eGT 1995 hatch in white. Paid 3.5K for it at 5.5 years old with about 50K on the clock. Just a fantastic car, the handling was pin-sharp. Tried the later P11 GT, just not as good, soft compared to the P10, then again think it had beam rear suspension unlike the P10's independant. Haven't a clue in this day and age what I could get for as much fun for that price (including inflation), doesn't exist, maybe an MX5. Modern cars bore the sh1t out of me. 90's Nissan's were superb, also had a 200SX S14a, loved that. Had a K11 1.0 Micra as a second car, paid £2050 for it, had it 8 years and only a fuel pump went on it. Had 130K miles when sold it to my sister-in-law for £250, was costing money to get welded every MOT, but the mechanics of it were A1. Best car I've owned the K11, cars are just not as good anymore for cheap motoring. Really miss the P10 too. The Almera GTI was great fun too.
Ah yes, perhaps you are right. It did seem especially woolly - it still handled well though despite the steering. Agreed that 90's Nissans were superb (and 80's too, though not so much in the handling department). I drove a P11 for a while and it was excellent, the skinny tyres meant you could hit the limit of traction quite easily but it still felt great in the corners.
The old nissans are one of the best veichles , so reliable. You can really drive them so long till the freaking pedal goes through the floor 😃 still have my Micra 2003 1.0 petrol. Which is gonna be sold soon. One guy at work has a new 2018 Micra. I asked how is it. He said its shit, bulbs of headlights fails and fails every 2 months so he just needs to go to warranty repairs. And said Nissan dont know how to make good cars anymore…
@@letitflow6486 in family we have the all new 2022 Qashqai, it's soo good, great quality interior, doesn't seem a Renault. I think that Nissan is back since 2020. They improve a lot quality. I'm agree about the Micra, it's the "oldest" model sold in europe. It's just an alliance, not all Nissans are just Renault in every single thing
@@ChrisJamesUK1 I remember my mates dad bought one new in '02 and even then as a 15ish year old I remember the ride seeming firm 😆 cool spaceship of a car though
Haha we bought one of these for £500 off a relative then we traded it in the 2009 scrappage scheme to enable us to buy a brand new VW Golf 1.4tsi for only £13,000.
You reckon? I think they've gone through a lot of changes over time. Modern Nissans are unrecognisable compared with the older stuff. They used to have a 'boring but dependable' image. Not sure what their image is now, tbh

Not very sharp steering, have a feeling maybe something is wrong with it. Had 2 P10's back in the day, one was a 1.6 1992 fitted with a carb and it wasn't fast, but the steering and handling were really good. The car was way better than the Mondeo, Vectra, Avensis or whatever back then. Because of the handling. The other one I owned was a 2.0 eGT 1995 hatch in white. Paid 3.5K for it at 5.5 years old with about 50K on the clock. Just a fantastic car, the handling was pin-sharp. Tried the later P11 GT, just not as good, soft compared to the P10, then again think it had beam rear suspension unlike the P10's independant. Haven't a clue in this day and age what I could get for as much fun for that price (including inflation), doesn't exist, maybe an MX5. Modern cars bore the sh1t out of me. 90's Nissan's were superb, also had a 200SX S14a, loved that. Had a K11 1.0 Micra as a second car, paid £2050 for it, had it 8 years and only a fuel pump went on it. Had 130K miles when sold it to my sister-in-law for £250, was costing money to get welded every MOT, but the mechanics of it were A1. Best car I've owned the K11, cars are just not as good anymore for cheap motoring. Really miss the P10 too. The Almera GTI was great fun too.
Ah yes, perhaps you are right. It did seem especially woolly - it still handled well though despite the steering. Agreed that 90's Nissans were superb (and 80's too, though not so much in the handling department). I drove a P11 for a while and it was excellent, the skinny tyres meant you could hit the limit of traction quite easily but it still felt great in the corners.
The old nissans are one of the best veichles , so reliable. You can really drive them so long till the freaking pedal goes through the floor 😃 still have my Micra 2003 1.0 petrol. Which is gonna be sold soon. One guy at work has a new 2018 Micra. I asked how is it. He said its shit, bulbs of headlights fails and fails every 2 months so he just needs to go to warranty repairs. And said Nissan dont know how to make good cars anymore…
It's definitely the case that Nissans are not what they used to be!
@@JJonCars am i mistaken or Nissan is now made with Renault help?
@@letitflow6486 you're right - Nissan and Renault have an 'alliance' and share a lot of parts
@@JJonCars and thats the Problem. 🙃
@@letitflow6486 in family we have the all new 2022 Qashqai, it's soo good, great quality interior, doesn't seem a Renault. I think that Nissan is back since 2020. They improve a lot quality. I'm agree about the Micra, it's the "oldest" model sold in europe. It's just an alliance, not all Nissans are just Renault in every single thing
I have a 03 Primera P12
Nice. I like those but they're quite unloved cars at least in the UK!
@@JJonCars loved my 4 P12s although didn't ride or handle has well has the P10 but was more roomy and very modern for its age
@@ChrisJamesUK1 I remember my mates dad bought one new in '02 and even then as a 15ish year old I remember the ride seeming firm 😆 cool spaceship of a car though
Bro... 404,000 miles???
Haha we bought one of these for £500 off a relative then we traded it in the 2009 scrappage scheme to enable us to buy a brand new VW Golf 1.4tsi for only £13,000.
The good old days of functioning £500 cars. The scrappage scheme did get rid of some really nice useable stuff though which was a shame
Is muy car in 1991-2004 .

Nissans are all the same, even the modern ones
You reckon? I think they've gone through a lot of changes over time. Modern Nissans are unrecognisable compared with the older stuff. They used to have a 'boring but dependable' image. Not sure what their image is now, tbh
@@JJonCars I think modern Nissans are very innovative, unfortunately they have a very Middle Aged Karen and Dave image, only a few steps from Honda
@@oliverstemp9132 Lol, yeah I think you're right
yeah cos a juke looks like a Bluebird
I have a similar one in Egypt, but the hatchback version ♥️
