    Almost everyone knows an uncle's brother's girlfriend's twice-removed cousin who had <insert disaster here> with <insert car marque here>. It's not exclusive to European cars either, people would try and spin me the same story about my previous car whose transmission was guaranteed to explode the moment I looked at it sideways.

    Owned three of them over eight years, two of them with the allegedly susceptible automatic transmission. I experienced no such failure. A friend owned a Nissan Skyline 350GT which did experience a transmission failure and it cost several thousand dollars to replace.

    Does this mean I think all Nissans are shit? No of course not.

    If your worried about transmission.... Took the landcruiser in to get transmission serviced as it was a bit jerry when changing, picked it up and he guy said it still had factory filter and suspected factory fluid as bolts were locktited.... Only 360km on the old girl
