Nissan Sunny SGL ("Baby") sold 21 November 2001

Nissan Sunny SGL (Baby) sold 21 November 2001

Ah, there goes my lovely Baby, my Nissan Sunny SGL...

 

It was my first car, I had it for 2 1/2 years, and I don't care what everyone says, I think Nissan Sunny's are great.

Here are the cool things about my newly departed car:

  1. Its a coupe.

  2. Its got 3 letters in its name, S, G and L.

  3. It had some really cool levers to open the windows with (click here).

  4. The only time it ever broke down on me, was in the middle of nowhere in the countryside.  Some how or other, it managed to come to a standstill right next to a public call box so I could phone for help.

  5. No matter what people say about Sunny's, its related to the Nissan Sunny 2.0 GTi-R which can do 0-60 in 5.1 seconds (that's the same as a Porsche 911 3.4)

 

The only reason I got rid of it was to get this slightly posher looking Rover 820! 

 

 

Anyway, back to the important thing around here: Here are some pics of my lovely li'l old Nissan

(If you want to see what other people think of this car, try this site)

 

poor baby looking sad

doesn't it look sad? 
It knows I am about to send it away :-(

the nissan with open boot

Yes, the boot stayed open all by itself !
(which is more than I can say for the rover, I'm afraid!)
NEWS! Jan2002 
- the rover has new boot struts! hurrah for motorbitz!

rear view of nissan with open boot

Ah what a sexy little bottom!

the radio etc 

One of the cool things about it was its 
completely
manual, lever driven everything
(except for the choke). 
Here you can see the radio etc 
which had both AM and Long wave!!

Oh how I will miss sitting down on those comfy seats...

more seats

Of course, if you were a passenger...
you would have seen this view first


 

window-opener lever 1

Absolutely the COOLEST thing about the Nissan were these two levers.
They sat between the 2 front seats, 
and you used them to open and close the rear windows. 
How cool is that?!?

And here is the saddest thing of all...

boot light

Today, as I was cleaning out the boot of my poor ickle baby for the very last time, I found a light in the boot that I never realised I had, and never turned on.  I switched the switch and it worked beautifully *tears in the corner of my eye*...

Anyway, that's all there is to say about my baby for now... 

 

Bye baby, baby bye bye.
Bye bye baby, don't make me cry
Bye baby, baby bye bye.
