Spykes Jerky 5 Door

Right, so I brought this after I sold my very thirsty Audi A4 1.8T Sport I was using as a daily motor.

I wanted something comfortable, cheap to run and cheap to fix for use everyday. I really didn't want a 5 door, but this came up and was very close to me and I managed to knock him down alot so got it cheap.

It has a few issues, the passenger side headlight is cracked, the heater card is faulty and the rear arches have bubbled.

The good thing is, it has a full GTi/SRi Interior, GTi/SRi front bumper with Fogs, Electric sunroof + mirrors and 4 Electric windows. Both sills were replaced last year and it has full Nissan Service history. It drives like a brand new car and the interior looks brand spanking new aswell.

At the moment it is proper grandad spec, feels like I should put a box of tissues on the parcel shelf along with a tartan blanket. I have a few bits to make it look better ready to go on. Arches are being repaired tomorrow morning then I can start fitting some shiney bits to it.

So yeah, heres the pics:

Well it seems to be very good on fuel. Much better than my GTi was. Also, the fact that it's slow as fuck means I don't want to drive it fast.

Its gonna be pimp. Said this afternoon, surprised how clean it is. You'll have to wash it more often (says me) :whistling:
 
Yeah it looks ok, doesn't look as good as that Pulsar that keeps getting in the way in the pictures though.
 
SNAP!
