Nissan - Pao - Pike factory - op basis van Micra - 1989

A small but spacious car was designed with a retro look in 1987. The Nissan Pao, a very cute but also cool 3-door hatchback, from 1989. It was designed on the basis of the Nissan Micra K10 and had therefore many of the same parts. It is in good condition, with Dutch periodic vehicle inspection, start, drive. And what an attention! A RHD car but this gives you a safe feel and a good overview of cyclists and pedestrians, especially in busy city centres. Repainted 7 years ago, the paintwork is still in good condition although it has three spots of rust which require some attention. Some surface rust in the spare wheel compartment (see photos) . The bottom is hard. Everything is original. The sliding roof is a year old. The car will benefit from new door rubbers. Built in 1989, but DET (date of initial registration) in the EU was in 2009. This Pao falls in the classic car category in terms of Dutch insurance and vehicle tax. But even without that, the car is inexpensive. 8-valve, 1235cc. Maximum speed 140 km/h. Turning radius 4. 5 m. Consumption in the city 11 km to 1L, outside of the city 13 km to 1L. The odometer reading is almost 158,000 km, it has a new Dutch Periodic Vehicle Inspection valid until 8-6-2020.
