They don't make 'em like this any more may be a cliche, but it's certainly true for this most excellent sports car which offers, in its class, pretty unparalled performance with a dash of practicality. I hadn't seen this model until it was recommended by a friend who knew what I was looking for. My criteria were something sporty; had to be very good looking, fast, reliable (so that was a TVR out then!), and more than 2 seats (to stop friends sulking). The 200SX fitted this perfectly, and the fact that a 6 year old model (as was) was within my price range certainly helped. Nearly 3 years on I'm a very happy camper. The car's not ...  Read the complete review

For those of you who have,and you have my undying gratitude,sat through my painfully long and meandering rambles before will no doubt have realiesd two things about me. 1. - I love cars. 2. - I love Fords and Vauxhalls. You'll have read me wittering on about Sierras I've owned and Sierras I want,about Cavaliers I want and Cavaliers.......so on and so on etc. Well it might suprise you to know that in amongst these many Dagenham dustbins and Luton litterbins I've actually owned not one but three Nissans though not always by choice.I confess now that these are the only three cases of brand treason I've committed and ...  Read the complete review

My late Mum bless her always wanted to own a sporty car with flip lights,luckily she did get to own a 200sx. To which we was given after she past away,the car was great,We were already a Nissan fans and this added to our Nissan experience. The look on this late eighties model still turn heads and the flip lights add to people taking a second look.With friends and some strangers asking how could we afford such an expensive car and comparing it to cars 5 times what it was worth at that time. The s13 model changed design in the UK to the s14, but in Japan they added the new s14 s14a models but kept this model under the 180sx title until ...  Read the complete review

I had a 1991 Nissan 200sx 1.8 turbo. It was visually standard on the standard tear drop alloy wheels. The arch ways on these cars are huge, so for looks, the cars do benefit from aftermarket alloys of either 18 or 19 inch. Standard 170 BHP, 0-60 in 6.9 seconds. Power figures of 250 BHP can be achieved with a few minor modifications. More is attainable depending on how deep yur pockets are! There is plenty of info on the internet, but check the SXOC, 200sx owners forum for owners and advice. The 200sx is probably most famour on the drift circuits. Due to its limited slip differential you can drift this car easily. In my opinion its ...  Read the complete review

I have owned my Nissan now for six years. That is a long time to own a car - for me anyway. The thing is I have never got bored with it, and as time has passed and the value decreased the problem has increasingly been, what do I replace it with. I have gone through the marriage and babies thing, so another car has had to be purchased for the family. Thus the Nissan is now the second car - so money for this second car is less than I would like, so there is absolutely nothing to compare - even with another 2 or 3 grand in part ex with the Nissan that would compare. The performance is excellent - once that turbo kicks in look out. And it still looks as good today as ...  Read the complete review
