pixel8r Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 I bought my S2 from motorvation back in March '06. In general they were great to deal with and very helpful - even picked us up from the airport when we flew over to buy it. My advice would be to get the car checked out by a mechanic or some kind of vehicle inspection people asap. We got the 12 month warranty with ours but dont put much confidence in that one. The list of what it covers is mainly engine, gearbox, drivetrain, all of which nissan cars are famously good for. If something's going to be faulty its more likely turbo or suspension IMO. Actually my car had issues with both of these. We had the rear shocks replaced but this was only covered by the dealer 3 month/5000km warranty NOT the 12 month warranty - so thats why I said get it checked out ASAP. As far as the turbo goes, the warranty only covered up to $700, which wouldn't even have paid for a replacement 2nd hand one. In the end we upgraded the turbo at our own cost. To get warranty you have to use the mechanics listed with the warranty network - and most of those dont have the first clue what a stagea is, let alone a turbo. We decided that something as important as the turbo would be best done by a specialist. In all though, 20 months later the car is still going great. The front suspension should probably have been fixed too but wasn't noticeably bad at the time we bought it. From what we've experienced with the car and the condition it was in when we bought it, it is quite likely the kms were genuine (or at least very close to) and that the car had been sitting in a caryard for several years. And I'm now thinking that its possibly better to buy a car with higher kms thats been driven regularly than one thats been sitting around for years...but we haven't done too badly. Still very happy with it, driven to brisbane and back in it, and on several short holidays in SA (i live in adelaide), and its still purring along. so aside from the initial issues with turbo and suspension, its not needed anything else done since, other than the usual servicing.

jippa Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 got a new pic of my stag and was way hapy untill i noticed that my eyelids had been removed. they said it was for compliance and would try get them back but dont like my chances, the warranty on offer at the moment is 5 years and lucky for me i have a good mechanic that is awn registered an auto sparky and a gearbox place. they chose the base package but am going to upgrade to the premo package for a few extra $. u might want to look at doing the same rusy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/191923-my-new-stag-will-be-her-in-2-weeks/page/2/#findComment-3456707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusy82 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 yeah i may upgrade the warranty depending on the extra cost. thats crap about your eyelids you should definitely get them back imo. i didnt end up getting photos today as they said "the camera ran out of battery" ?
