The first visual impressions of this car wasn't really too good at first because I had previously a sleek stylish looking 206 compared to the more bulky rounded look of the Almera. However my opinion was quickly changed once I had a look at the inter...

Just bought mine 2nd hand ,loads of gizmo's for little outlay ,nippy motor with plenty of storage space ,the reversing camera is a godsend for the missus. Being an auot the mpg is not that great but its the same on all auto cars i guess. Rear seats a...

Don't like its shape but I put up with it.
One day I was overtaking and all the sudden the engine stalled. It nearly killed me. This problem is called by a "Timing chain" defect which Nissan are refusing to fix. If this happens to you you need...

Bought with 8000 on dash, faultless, powerful diesel car, much quicker than pug 306 td. Serviced at 12,000 which cost me £165.00 Smooth drive; drive superb on motorway, plenty of power so much that have to watch for speed cameras. Around town a...

I got the 136 bhp model, what a car for a diesel. The power is there when I need it (impudent boy racers in there converted 1.2 corsa's) and on average 50 to 60 miles to the gallon cruising. This car has everything even SAT Nav. I can only say one...

Great value for money car although i have been having a problem with fuel consumption

The Almera never came to my mind when looking for a car, not even slightly. I noticed the car at a dealer forecourt after looking at an 'X' reg Ford Focus and tapping the rather extensive rust on the door sill, i knew then i was not buying a Ford. I ...

I have had this car for three years from new and have just passed it on to my daughter. It has been 100% reliable. Not a sporty car or good looking car, in my opinion, but if you want a safe, reliable car then I would recommend an Almera. The only...

Purchased after reliability problems with VW and Audi cars I had owned in the past. Bought Almera in 2005 and not a single thing has gone wrong. It drives and handles well, is reasonable on fuel (for an Auto) and everything works. Some negatives: a v...

Update: Purchased in 2005 with 32000 miles and by Jan 2008 had 60000 miles. In that time there have been no problems. I intend to keep this car until it totally collapses, which I expect to happen around 200000 mls. It handles well and the automatic ...

Nice and comfy seats. Annual services aren't too expensive, and it's never needed any other attention. Easy to drive.

Easy to drive car , but much too noisy while driving on motorways for any distance , the engine is none too powerful for a 1500 . My prevous car was a fiat Punto which I owned for 3 years which gave me absolutely no trouble , ( unusual for a Fiat !)...

You can't fault it really. I've had my Almera about 2 years now and it's never needed more than the usual service. It's parked outside all year round, used every day and never gives me any trouble. The only downside is that the rear legroom is a bit ...

I love this car It wasn't on my list of cars to look for but as soon as I tried it... I loved it. Its amazing value for money and I love the extras. All electric, AC, CD, power steering etc It's extremely comfortable and great to drive. The storage ...

Great car. 8 weeks on, I have not found a single fault. Very quiet for a diesel while travelling except for the first 2 or 3 miles when cold. Comfortable seating and position. Well done Nissan

Good runner, economical and comfortable. Loads of room in the back when seats are down and low maintenance.

It has been a really good car. Only once ever had a problem in 6 years when the alternator went and needed replacing. Otherwise it's been very reliable. No isofix though and doesn't fit Mamas & Papas car seats. It's a bit noisy, but probably not much...

A great car! Smooth, comfortable, powerful, quiet and refined. It drives and pulls as if it has a much bigger engine while still giving 500 miles to a tank full. If you want a smallish family car that is a great drive, and so much better value than ...

Great car. Had it over a year now and all it has needed is a service, and MOT and usual maintenance (brakes changed and a couple of bulbs). Fantastic city car, even better on motorway although a little noisy. It's pretty speedy - keeping up with cars...

Owned by me from new, the almera has been a good car overall. Reliability has been good, the car has only broken down once. The only parts being replaced being brake pads(twice) and disks(once), one c.v boot, MAP sensor and two sets of tires. The ...

At first my wife and I were very pleased with our Almera. However within the 3 year warranty period we started to get regular and reoccurring problems with the brakes. They kept seizing on for no apparent reason. One time this occurred was only three...

I've bought my Almera Sport about a year ago, 55,000 on the clock. Since then it has gone on and on and on, no problems. They do get slated by motoring journalists but I have found the Almera to be great. It's cheap, it's safe (4star NCAP), it's pret...

Economically sound, good runner and low maintenance required as long as regularly serviced.

I have had a nissan almera for 7 years and done 70k miles in it. It has been great car. The dashboard and storage make it easy to live with. I Like the fact th coin holder in dashboard and the storage nets in the boot. The car is easy to drive and ha...

Bought our car 2 and a half years ago on 16000 miles now on 30000 and (touch wood) not a problem. Only 2 new tyres and u can live with that! Love my car and can sleep easy with it. Good car

Quite dull to look at and interior is more 80's than 1999. However handling and performance is surprisingly good. I've done over 20K in 11 months driving - reliability is faultless. Boot is quite large but not good for big loads hatchback would be be...

Although the `older` shape I still think it looks nicer than the newer model. Mine is the range topping GTi. This sadly wasn’t carried on into the new range It shares the same engine as the Primera GT., so pushes out 150 BHP, but this car is 2...

I purchased the car at 6 months old with 7,000 miles on the clock. The car now has 31,000 miles on the clock, so its has not been too stressed Apart from scheduled servicing, the only other time the car have been in the garage was to fix a rear whee...

What can I say about this car? I bought it at 3 years old and in the 2 years I have owned it has done 23000 miles with no problems. It is the best car I have ever owned.

Bought the car with 29000 miles on the clock, 3 years ago. have just hit 52000 miles and the only problem i have had is the base idle speed needing to be reset. reliability is very good, and it is a nice drive. good fuel economy and enough power when...

We bought the car in 2000, with about 9,500 miles on the clock. It was used as a daily commute to work for my wife. This varied over the last five years from 2 miles of A road up to 12 miles of Motorway. Without exception the car never failed to s...

Overall, an excellent car!

We've had the Almera in our family for 4 years now, and its been totally reliable. It is a car you can depend on, and wont let you down mechanically. The only expenditure needed is servicing, which is expensive fro...

Had the car since 1999 and 44,000 miles later I have not had a single problem. The only expense has been route servicing and new tyres.

Brilliant car but needs regular servicing. Nothing too difficult, just oil filter, air filter and spark plug changes. Brakes are much better than other cars I've driven (eg VW, Volvo, Astra). Economical.

One bad point (maybe it's just my car...

Excellent reliable car. Cheap to run, bags of power, comfortable and no repairs over 3 years and 50000 miles. I'm sticking with Nissan now!

Cheap to run and service,nothing ever goes wrong.
Would buy the same again!

I had this car in 1999 when it was 4 years old from our main Nissan dealer in Derbyshire and can honestly say that, looking back, it was a true gem of a motor The only thing that really went wrong on it was the timing chain and that was probably due...
