Had an ex demo in 2001 up until 2016, apart from brakes, exhaust and tires never had to do anything, absolutely brilliant car.

I have the same car in gray. Year of manufacture 2004 manual transmission. The problem for me is the speedometer instrument cluster flickers and sometimes stops working when I start the car. But while driving for about 10 minutes the speedometer works again sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

I think all things considered not bad if that's the worst of your troubles.

Big review......next stop top gear 😊

[@sutsi]

Lol. I don't think I do fancy enough cars for top gear 😂

[@YT_Gopnik_Mario]

my dad has also Almera it is unreliable like sometimes it wont start like WTH you told its Reliable

[@sutsi]

Sorry to hear that. On the whole they are good cars but no vehicle is immune to issues and when we classify reliability it's according to how few as a percentage of the whole are troublesome. So a renault you'd find say 20 out of 100 cars are troublesome whereas only 5 out of 100 almeras are troublesome, so therefore it's deemed more reliable. Additionally It may well be a service item that's just reached end of useful life - they have to wear out at some point. or a reflection that previously it was not maintained to manufacturer recommended intervals.

@@sutsi i mean by not start by Sometimes Kranking over but it wont start and sometimes Starter is not engaging so prb Anti Theft Immobilizer is faulty

[@sutsi]

@@YT_Gopnik_Mario yes immobiliser issues are common. I had similar issues with an Almera...I did a video on it..see link below. My one it turned out to be the starter motor on that occasion. www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D-RIAi_InEhs&ved=2ahUKEwiK3tb5pa2FAxUdUkEAHU4rCm8Qo7QBegQICBAF&usg=AOvVaw3dp-hQLGXF_y6ciToyJ4A5

This is puzzling. I have a 2004 Nissan Almera Tino (manual) and it is ULEZ compliant. so far anyway, 58,000 miles . I have been looking for an automatic of this model due to knee problems when driving a manual, especially in stop start rush hour traffic which we have to do occasionally. I thought the automatic was also ULEZ compliant. Shame as I was on the verge of making a big mistake with a different car.

[@sutsi]

It's weird on this one....the base spec on some are ULEZ compliant I think like a "S"....but only way is to run the reg over on the ULEZ checker

[@Aerobob42]

@@sutsi Yes, I guess so. The car I had my eye went today so will leave chasing anything for the moment. Ours in in for service & MoT next Tues and a bit of work needed (torsion bar) so hoping they can fix it. It's been a good car overall though. Thanks for your reply.

As long as the auto box is good it'll sell!

[@sutsi]

It drives great just a shame not ulez compliant

[@Toby_the_Glen]

@@sutsi .... have a day out at the seaside with a 'for sale' sign it. It's an auto MPV, it'll go. Sometimes you have to take "the mountain to mohammed!"😁 People don't buy these cars because they 'want' them, they buy them because they 'need' them. It doesn't do 200mph, it cant 0-60 in 4secs, it won't win any beauty competitions. But as a workhorse, for shopping, days out, kids, school run, Costco washing machines. everyone needs one but they are not sexy, so they get neglected. Scenic's, Picasso's, everyone hates them, but.......?
