Hello everybody!
Just wanted to introduce myself!
Cut a long story short im a student in 2nd year at university and i work part time at BT call centre! at the moment I dont have a nissan primera but hopefully will do very soon!
I bought my first Nissan Primera last summer in June from my dad, It was a stunning car but unfortunately It was written off within three days of getting it, I was hit side on by a bus and to this day im gutted but what can you do!
 I cant figure out how to put pictures up from my hard drive!
Im looking to get an N reg Primera 1.6 Sri very soon

Feck that looks nasty. What a big shame as that looked like a real nice motor (before bus modification lol). Big welcome to NPOC mate and hopefully welcome to the 1.6 army aswell -------------  |

As promised here are the pics of the new car! it has a few problem spots maybe you could help me with, a bit of rust here and there as shown in the pics and also a dent/scratch! also any ideas as to what to do with the car in terms of styling would be great. thanks

Welcome to the club. You got a cobalt blue one there, they are awesome and don't see many around. A set of multi-spoke alloys would look great on there. ------------- 2023 Tesla Model 3 Performance Member of the Month: Jan 2014 ex P11 Si, P11 GT, P11-144 Sport+, P11 GT Turbo, P11-144 Wagon, Subaru Legacy B4 RSK, 350z, Type R |

thanks for the input man! i think i might have to start looking for some alloys, ive aso got some other ideas for the future......i would like to tint the windows, get a nice backbox on and maybe lower the car although im not sure if that will be neccessary if i was to put on 17s?
thanks

You'd possibly notice the arch gap more with 17s, it seems more prominent and you get the '4x4' look.
I always remember a few years back, the cobalt I seen which nearly snapped my neck getting a second look. It was a saloon of course, beautiful shiny condition, beautiful shining multi-spokes and the windows were tinted with that blue colour which matched the car colour really well.
I'm a P11 man really but I'd have taken that car like a shot, it worked so nicely. ------------- 2023 Tesla Model 3 Performance Member of the Month: Jan 2014 ex P11 Si, P11 GT, P11-144 Sport+, P11 GT Turbo, P11-144 Wagon, Subaru Legacy B4 RSK, 350z, Type R |

Thanks!
Yeah i can imagine it would have looked good!
Im gonna have to give it a good clean and sort out the rust and the dent/paint first then take it from there!
Do you think it would probably be best to get the rust sorted out professionally?

| Just took her out for a proper drive today! very impressed with the handling and general driving although it didnt overly impress me acceleration wise, now i say this whilst comparing it to an astra 1.6 Si 8V i had last year which seemed a bit quicker but that could be because the astra was lighter but overall i dont have any complaints! |
