| Description |
| Recommended. Nissan's new look started with the Primera. It's the funkiest saloon around and there's a wide range of models as well as high equipment levels. |

| Road Test |
| Nissan has gone all out to be different with the latest Primera. Which other car has a TV camera at the back to help you park more easily? Gimmicks aside, this is a fine family car with lots of clever touches. Inside, there's plenty of space for five passengers and a well designed dashboard. It's fun to drive, too, with sharp handling and a good turn of speed, especially from the 2.0 petrol models. Unlike the smaller Almera, this Nissan is nice to look at, although the estate version is less attractive. |
