We only went in the cafe today (which is very good) I’ve been in the museum a few times now & it’s definitely worth a visit :thumbsup:

One of my favourite cars after the Nissan Cherry we also had. :thumbsup:

And the Primera? Oh and not forgetting the Almera, though that was not so good as the others. The engine was made by Renault and was a bag of bolts after driving proper Japanise designed cars. :P
