UK buyers have taken a long time to see the merits of the Nissan QX. Perhaps it was tarred by the same brush as its unremarkable predecessor, the Maxima, sales volumes of which were distinctly Minima....
Now here’s one that you may not have considered for quite some time but which is not altogether unappealing. The Nissan 100NX offers something a little different if you’re after a budget used coupe an...
This is one of the best little shopping cars on the market and the good news is that it's now one of the best value used cars you can buy. Seen by some as the 1990s version of the Mini, the second gen...
To be truthful, the Sunny name dates from another era. It was originally applied to a family Datsun range back in the late Sixties – one of the products that really gained the Japanese a foothold in B...
Whilst most acknowledge that Renault has done more than any other manufacturer to popularise the mini-MPV sector that hasn’t stopped several other car makers wading in with their own wares. The Citroe...
If there is such a thing as a 'British' Japanese car, then Nissan's Primera is the original article. The first one rolled out of the company's Sunderland plant in 1990, built with European steel, scre...
Nissan has developed quite a reputation for sports coupes and the car that put it back on track was the 200SX. Coming after a generation of increasingly lardy Nissan coupes, the 200SX was a breath of ...
Word of mouth is a strange thing. Certain products can, with little or no promotion from their manufacturers, rapidly build into items of cult status. Credibility counts here, and in the case of the N...
No mainstream car maker has reinvented itself quite as radically as Nissan. You don’t need to wind the clock back that many years to find a me-too company producing dull but worthy and good. The Prime...

Have you ever paused to wonder why the UN peacekeeping vehicles that you see in far-flung global trouble spots always seem to be Nissan Patrols? Watch any news programme and you’ll spot one before too...

There are default names that car buyers turn to in any sector of the car market. Clio and Corsa make safe supermini bets. Focus and Golf always command respect from family hatch buyers. Fortunes shift...
This is the vehicle that many people unfairly overlook when considering a used people carrier. As recently as 1996, however, the Serena outsold the car that started the European MPV ball rolling, Rena...
Although the Qashqai probably wasn’t the innovation that Nissan would have us believe, it’s still a very interesting and capable alternative to the usual family hatch. Throughout the line up, there ar...

The rise of the so-called ‘soft-roader’ has been one of the key motoring trends of the last few years. Largely kicked off by the success of cars like the Suzuki Grand Vitara and Toyota RAV4, the secto...
Ever since the introduction of the 240Z in 1970, Nissan - and formerly Datsun - ‘Zed Cars’ have been the company’s sports coupe staple. There have been great cars, like the 240Z, very good cars like t...

Of the four Japanese super-coupes introduced at the start of the nineties, the Nissan 300ZX enjoyed the most success in the UK. The Mazda RX-7 was a bit too uncompromising, the Toyota Supra twin-turbo...
With the Escort-sized Almera, Nissan set its stall out to attract younger buyers. This was a Sunny for enthusiastic drivers – a Nissan with attitude. That was just as well because the styling was unus...
It's a tribute, both to Nissan's dealer network and the company's marketing skills, that the Terrano II has done so well. The product itself was virtually identical to Ford's Maverick, both cars being...

Nissan’s third generation Primera was a car that very much underplayed its hand. Beneath the somewhat dowdy styling was a package that had a lot going for it, and was well screwed together by the staf...

Since the inception of the Skyline GT-R in 1969, the model has become something of a cult. Motoring enthusiasts refer to the Skyline in the kind of hushed reverential tones once reserved for Italian e...
If Nissan doesn't instantly spring to mind when someone mentions sporty coupes, it should. It's easy to forget the company's proud reputation as the very first Japanese volume sports car maker. Only p...
The Nissan Patrol has never managed to embed itself into the British perception quite as its makers had hoped. It lacks the leviathan image of Toyota’s Landcruiser or the class of a Land Rover product...
Few cars have built up quite such a mantle of invincibility as Nissan’s Skyline GT-R. Founded on saloon car racing dominance, almost implausible lap times of the Nürburgring and an underground followi...
When Nissan developed the second generation Almera, it had to not only counter the threat from increasingly sophisticated European hatches, it also had to prove itself attractive in the face of compet...
Looking more like something Harrison Ford would use for transport in Blade Runner than a lifestyle 4x4, the Nissan Murano was tough to fit into any accepted category when it beamed down in the UK in 2...
