 dingleberry's recommendation | |
towing , off road .
non mechanical parts build quality .
The Nissan Terrano II 3.0di Turbo SVE 4x4 can pull 3 tonnes trailed weight from standstill at TICKOVER! Eat my shorts Disco diesels! I have used 90's, rangeys, discos', citroens; nothing in its class or many dearer cars can touch it for slow or motorway pulling .
I love a bit of off road too . I have pulled a freelander and a fronterra out of mud and ruts . Rock crawling is only bettered by the landy 90 / 110 . X5 owners don't count ..they think off road means parking on the kerb !
It was cheaper than a landy and came with leather, (wipes clean more easily than normal material) a/c, 6*cd changer, met paint, alloys, 3 yr warranty and a better engine.
However every silver lining has a cloud !!
Non mechanical build quality is suspect:
11 months cd changer replaced (2 visits), 18 months radio replaced (2 visits ) 7 visits to sort airbag warning light inc. @4th time bag replaced, on 7th all contacts SOLDERED.
some interior trim loose, one leather seat cover replaced (2 visits)BUT the dealer always supplied a free micra or clio.
When I needed to tow and they had nothing suitable they refunded me the cost of my hiring a fronterra for the day. I won't buy another one because when the warranty runs out on this one I will be raising it, fitting a winch, widenning the track, spotties etc....
