Excited P11 GT-LE

:D
Very excited, just about to get my first P11 GT-LE and own. Have been looking forward to this moment since I was 18 and first drove a P10 GT some 7 years ago.
NOTE: Don't lend you car to your children!!!

Stupidly I took it round a country road corner @ 110, thankfully it stuck to the road. Needless to say, the guy in the BMW M3 behind suddendly dissapeared at that point.

hey nice one man...cool to see more P11 Primera owners here...:)










ps pay us a visit at www.npoc.co.uk primera owners club....

Got the car, a few things to sort.

1. Limited Edition 16" Alloys need re-working (As with all of these that were produced, the final paint finish is crap and has bubbled and pealed of. If any one knows of a good cost effective place to get these re-coated please advise
2. Misterious vibration above 110mph. Something somewhere is not in balance. All suggestions welcomed.

cheers for the support ragt!! will check out your site

WTF are you doing going 110mph??? :eek: Glad you hear you have a Primera again though. I would try google-searching for the wheel thing, as I have seen sites here and there that will redo wheels.

110 is that all:rolleyes: ...hehe...:D

anyway are you in the UK, I assume so from the model of the car.....

if you are in the UK there are plenty of places that would sort out your alloys from around £25-£30 per wheel....

NPOC.co.uk ain't my site, its the UK primera owners club site, so any problems ya have I'm sure someone there will be able to help ya out.

look forward to seein ya there..:)

'G'.... I just checked his profile... and he's either a Brit abroad... or another victim... I mean friend... to join the 300+ other Nissan Primera owners club members in the UK..lol

what colour and year is your GTLE Jon ??

Firmly in and from the the UK.
Car colour is the same as most GT-LE's, Nordic Blue.
Another member of my family has the same car. A little newer but identical in every aspect including colour.

When I get round to it I'll stick a picture or two up on my website.

Welcome to the club, had a P11 GT LE for 3 years and still love it! :smile:

I'll be getting my alloys redone (front 2 anyway) for £30 each. It's a powder coating company in scotland (forget the name), but any company like that should be able to do it.

I thought most GT LE were silver?

actually they're more common;y known to be in the Nordic blue....top colour

It's a pity Nissan selected a duff third party for the wheels, the original finish seems to be appalling.

learn something new every day :smile:

hey how come I ain't seen you guys over at www.npoc.co.uk the UK primera Owners club....loadsa stuff for you to find out there....

I've no idea, but in the 3 weeks I've had the car I've had no end of enjoyment.
Athough I still think an extra 30bhp to the stock 150 will make the car just spot on and match its superb handling.

Hi All.

I have a 2000 Nordic GT. (v reg)

How do you tell if it's an LE.

It's fully loaded with Leather, aircon & sunroof.

Also, Is the Nordic worth more? ie. more rare?

yup if its full leather with Enkei 16" alloys, momo gearknob iirc it will be a GTLE...yes there were only 300 odd nordics made in GTLE flavour iirc...

worth more, nah not now, aye maybe a little extra if in good condition etc...

Thanks for that RagT.

Looks like mine IS an LE after all. Not sure about the wheels but they were 16" and they were rubbish. Very fugly and they shed their coating. (Still got them but running on 17" now)

Nice to have a bit of a rarity. It's only done 60K

needs good repairs, get some
