He means Nissan Stanza, nasty little hatch from the '80s ;-)

No I found the correct spelling Stagea having done a quick google search looks like it was in GT2 on the play is anyone has a copy lying round. More pics here:

Did the Stanza have the Skyline engine? That would be fun.Looks like they only went up to 1809cc.

Could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure they didn't have a Nissan Skyline engine in them, heh.

From the looks of that Stagea thing, you could get a whole Stanza in the boot...

Ex taxi the rear doors on Japanese taxis are normally remote operated and open or close at the push of a button from the driver. Stops people just getting out without paying. (Worth remembering if you are ever over there.)

Andrew Kirby raved thus:

:: I've always wanted a Nissan Cedric. I don't know anything about them :: either, but I like the name.

Followed a Mitsubishi Chariot up the M1 today.

Or even if you're in a proper black cab in the uk....

I don't remember ever having a UK cab door open for me (not just lock unlock) they must use some form of rams.

Oh, right, they actually _open_, black cabs just have locking.

Yes it's quite cool the first time you see someone go up to one when they don't know about it.

Definatley looks a little bit Legacy Estate to me, and that is no bad thing.

Is the front end /really/ made of Lego, or does it just look like it? Blergh!

Agreed. Although they're still pricey, and being FWD, I can't see it being much of a step up from the TI to be honest.

Touch-wood, the TI has been very reliable in the 18 months I've owned it. And it drives nice :)

No, not a must. But the Galant and Legacy both offer it :)

Big miles, but I'm impressed. I do like those actually, although I don't really want an estate.

But when I do need some parts, I'll need to remortgage. I think it's prolly too big to physically fit in my front garden's parking space !

Only the newer ones are 4wd, and you can't pick em up for 8K :/

Having had a quick squint at Supras yesterday on Autotrader, there are a couple about for reasonable money. What's the performance of the non-turbo cars like - bhp etc. ?
