Hi all. :naughty:

I have a question for you all primera owners in Europe.

I have seen that the P11e 144 sport version have an "SPORT" emblem on the back, have anyone seen it? here in sweden it dosen´t exist. But I know that it dose. So if anyone have it or maby have the Nissan serial number please give it to me :smile:

Thanx all.

In England we have the Primera Sport and the Primera Sport+.

They both come with 16" alloy wheels, 6 speaker stereo system, white VDO gauges, sport seats and upgraded tighter suspension, but the Sport has 140BHP (I believe) and the Sport+ has the 150 BHP SR20DE engine.

Also the Sport+ comes with the CVT-M6 transmission (automatic with 6-speed tiptronic manual) but I don't know if the Sport has this transmission as well..

There may be other things, but the main difference between the two as far as I can tell is the Sport+ having the higher power output.

The Sport+ seems to basically be a newer version of the good old GTE.

Hope this answers your question.

Not sure this is correct. I had a SE+ before I bought this Sport+ and I would say that in terms of performance, handling, etc the cars are identical. I think the difference between the other models and the Sport+ is probably just aesthetic.

Unless the SE+ also had the same upgrades... they both have very similar performance up to 60, both top out at 135 indicated* (which I think the extra horsepower would affect?), both have exactly the same handling (the Primera was the first car I mastered lift off oversteer in, and both of them carry it out very similarly),

Also the Sport+ comes with the CVT-M6 transmission (automatic with 6-speed tiptronic manual) but I don't know if the Sport has this transmission as well..

This I can definitely discount. I have a lovely 5 speed manual gearbox.

The Sport+ seems to basically be a newer version of the good old GTE..

I never had a GTE but the owners I've heard from spoke highly of it's performance compared to standard primeras and I don't think the Sport+ could claim to have the same performance distinction.

* Since I bought a SatNav I have discovered (as I always suspected) that my 135 indicated is nearer 120mph in real terms. Even at 70 indicated, the sat nav reports 64mph. The speedo is VERY 'optimistic'.
