I am moving to Napier at the end of the year so my 2002 Nissan Tino is up for sale.
This car has been a great run around for me while I finished my internship here in Christchurch.
Reliable and economical 1.8L motor, 5 seats and plenty of boot space. The car is kept tidy and is well maintained.
I bought this car from an older lady who was upgrading. I believe she was the only owner in NZ.
Perfect first car, easy to drive and park.
Car starts first time every time. Vehicle will be sold with a current warrant of fitness and registration.
Had the head gasket worked on earlier in the year and has been great ever since. The fuel/Air sensor needs replacing but this does no effect the cars driving ability.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
