Hope To Buy Nissan Primera P11

[sanny]

like to get advice about fuel consumption, maintenance and is it semi luxury car?? n we have to pay tax??

Since the 7 years are up for this model, you do not have to pay tax. However if the previous owner has not paid, then you will have to pay at the time of transfer.

I had a 2 litre manual 1997 model. Simply the finest car I have ever owned. It does around 10kmpl. Parts are available, however suspension parts are expensive. In 2007 it cost around 80K to fix the front only.

Pinoeer Motors and Delkanda places have most of the parts.

If your car has the SR20DE engine, you are all set to own one of Japan's finest cars.

thnx VVTi pro,, n wht is da CVT box case (i dunno about it ). i ll buy 1.8l manual car.

this 1 :- http://autolanka.com/ad.asp?ID=76563

That seems like a good car. Stick to the manuals. Less trouble than a CVT.

That car also is a manual.

[Crosswind]

It's a manual car. CVT box issue is not applicable.

If the registration book has 1798CC or 1799CC, then there is no luxury tax for this car. However, if the registration book also indicates 1830CC, then you need to ask the luxury tax reciepts from the seller. Pls note that there's a penalty for late payments of luxury tax.

All the best.

Penalty for late payment is half of the value+Tax value Ex: for Rs.25000 Tax value if you late for that you will have to pay Rs.25000+12500=37500

Total of Rs.37500

[sanny]

VVTi, crosswind n malaka 2. thank yo ol.

my budget is 1.2mil, so i got

1994 (18-) single carb EG8 foe 1.1mil (have to paint it n cost will be 75k)

and this nissan primera p11 for 1.2mil.

(those car 2 different cars). um not worry about fuel consumption if its done 10kmpl. but i think about maintenance cost, suspension case, tax case (if P11),

please now tell me better 1.

n malaka2 tax have 2 yearly.

Look, if the car tax issue is sorted, the P11 will be a far superior car to own than carb driven EG8. Youa re not going to get any better fuel figures from your EG8.

But then in the end it your decision.

I didn't remember the exact amount but sure it below Rs.30,000. Some guys will say that you can wave off penalty chargers by talking to the authorities in DMV. But please don't go to that option. may be you could wave it out but later some day if inquire or auditor catch it definitely it will be your fault of misleading them. The seat who wave it off never get the responsibility.

(10000+5000)+(7500+3750)=26250

If I'm not mistaken this will be your charge for tax.

Ur going to buy one of the best cars in the world, good Luck!! One of my friend had a Nissan Preimera It did a about 10kmpl(Auto Transmission). It's a very reliable and driving pleasure is good, specially if ur buying a Manual One.

[Schiffer]

[CyRaX]

Im too a small fan of the P11, I think there was a manual black SR20DE on A/L

[The Stig]

Are you a government worker malaka2 or 5 what so ever???? Let the government do the calculation... coz that's not true.

Sheesh someone is pissed yelling on all the threads, is it that time of the month ?

Excellent Car. But, Better stick to manual ones, as CVT gear boxes are troublesome... and costly to repair/ maintain..

Taxes wise, agreed with 'The Stig's' post. let DMV do the calculation...

I did a favour to the person who asked? Nothing personal, I calculate it correctly.

[nadsa]

Is it still worthy to buy?

Found an auto-gear one.

There were three different engines close to 1.8L?
