2008 Nissan Versa consumer reviews

Good sub compact vehicle. Economical, has decent CD player and good leg room in front. Interior in two tone colors aesthetically appealing.

a basic car... not much for extras or bells and whistles but it went forever. drove it for ten years only changing oil, brakes and tires. I drove it into the ground and did no preventative maintainance yet it still purrs like a baby. best gas mileage ever

Sweet little hatchback that gets great mileage - 32mpg/hwy. Very comfy for it's size, provides a good ride on the Interstates. Three relatively large adults, and their luggage, did a round trip from St. Louis, MO to Boca Raton, FL without cracking our spines!

It is by far, on a list of many cars that I've owned, the worst of my personal ranking. I thought a Nissan would be at least more likely than most provide the basics: reliability, safety, durability, and hopefully a bit of comfort. It doesn't. My husband has taken to be a regular "Mechanic via YouTube videos on How to fix..." A concerning trend all on it's own. But, between enormous school loans between the two of us, a toddler and other expenses, we are stuck with this now pieced together "hope it makes it" gem. Regrets all around, and I'm in need of a car for myself and our son...it won't be a "Nissan Anything!" Terrified, however of beginning this process again and having to settle for the best of the barely drivable bunch.

Good value. Not great at anything, not bad at anything. Actual gas mileage is probably around 25 city + highway - below listed. But, I do feel safe, and I think the seats are comfy.

Great little car for the money. Bought used, and love the 32-34 MPG that it gets. Drove it from St. Louis to Boca Raton and back (apx 2,500miles), plus a week there (another couple hundred miles), and only had to top up (3/4 tank) seven times. (so, a little more than 5 tanks of gas).

In a car accident that is called a Tbone. Car front driver side was hit and front of car hit a light pole. Cut out of car. I thank God for protection. It's was a great small car. Low gas and maintenance cost. Roomy interior. If windy it drives better with more weight in car.

I just bought a used 2008 Versa for having 87,000 miles the car runs smooth and it picks up pretty quickly. We rented a 2014 Nissa Versa and I and my wife fell in love with it. We took it to California and only spent less than 80 bucks. So we had to get one great car to have would recommend to anyone looking to save on gas and for the money!

My wife and I bought a Versa SL hatch with CVT new in 2008. She commutes quite a bit for work and there is now 166,000 miles on the car. We keep good care of the car including a recent tune up and CVT fluid change. Any maintenance has been routine and regular wear/tear issues. We expect it to easily hit 200k. It's peppy and cruises the highway well. We live in New England and put snow tires on for the winter. My wife laughs as she blows by 4WD/AWD vehicles. Inside it is both small and roomy. For example, I am 6' and 225 and feel a little cramped when driving, but the back seat has a lot of leg room for a compact car. We can fit 2 car seats in the back seat plus a lab and retriever in the hatch area. I highly recommend this car.

Held out until I found the perfect model with all the features I wanted. It was worth the wait. Rely on Car-Fax. Don't settle for a used auto that is just okay. Take the time to find your ideal vehicle.
