1986 Nissan Bluebird Universal 2.0 diesel

Summary:

Great car, but look for high running costs

Faults:

Power steering had leak.

Generator has been too weak for winter conditions.

Oil consumption a bit too high.

General Comments:

Very comfortable car.

Powerful and reliable engine.

Lots of space for whole crew and luggage.

Fairly economical - round 7.5 liters of diesel per 100 km in mixed environment.

Expensive service and parts.

Good and reliable car, but loud diesel engine sound is annoying, especially in a long trip at speed over 60Mph. Or maybe there is something wrong with my car?

I have a Nissan Bluebird Diesel and I also have a lot of noise at 60 mph. Am not sure at the moment if it's the engine or the gearbox, will let you know when I find out.

Apart from that, I do enjoy driving the car, it's now got 204,000 on the clock!!!
