2000 July:
The new Nissan Pulsar is bigger and better,
although we are not sure about the looks.
A driver's airbag,
remote locking and engine immobiliser are standard on all new Pulsars.
The Ti models also get a passenger airbag, front seat-belt pretensioners, and
ABS brakes.
The `Q' model is supposedly `sporty' -
alloy wheels, side skirts and spoiler pose gear.

Holden Astra Convertible Turbo(Highly recommended sports car), from $49,990
This European convertible is a stunning car in so many ways. It's a great drive (with high performance 147kw Turbo). It's practical and apart from a small boot has abundant room for 4 or 5 at a pinch. It's loaded with standard features: air, power windows / steer, cruise, 6 speaker CD, ABS, traction control, airbags & more. It also looks great! My Managing Director's lovely wife owns one of these & I have no hesitation in recommending this car to you. A true bargain for a high performance Euro Convertible.
