I used to have a 86 sentra.  I beat on that car rather much.  Such as,
when there was a two foot tall snow drift accross the road, I just ran
straight through it at a good clip (I really wanted to get home rather
than being stranded somewhere).

What did the car in was driving in 4 inches of slush at again a good
clip.  All the slush beating the underside of the car from the tires was
too much for the rusted floor to handle, so 6" of slush got packed
underneath the carpet on the passenger side of the car.
