Nissan Primera Hatchback (96-99) rivals
Overview
The second-generation Primera carried on where the old model left off, which means comprehensive abilities and good value. The way it performed on the road was polished to the point where it was one of the nicest cars in its class to drive. The stylists didn’t get too involved in its development and as such its bland design makes it easy to overlook.
But it is a very credible alternative to the Mondeo and Vectra and as a former fleet favourite can be picked up cheaply.
