    It should not have a space saver according to information i have found. I need to remember to check if the "normal" steelies would fit in the spare wheel well. I had thought about nissan note alloys but like you said finding anything second hand at decent prices atm is pretty shocking. Car...

    Nissan newbie buys first Nissan... the journey begins!

    Had a look I like the SR160 models. The front bumper looks similar to Ntec models sold in the UK toward the end of the models life 2008-2010. Wouldn't mind finding an Ntec front bumper for mine as it should bolt right on (i hope).
