Look better than the regular bland Almeras. Prefer the Primera GT though which has the same engine just slightly more powerful.

Primera is better, like mark said, and touring car replicas on the road are
Almera is a decent car, engine is tough, and they dont look TOO bad

i've got me an almera... meander over to www.almeraownersclub.com, its worth a gander. I find mines a definate petrol guzzler in comparison to the corsa; i only get 360 miles to the tank - which is usually cumbria to tyneside and back, plus a few town runs so its not too bad!
