    This is our two year ownership review of this vehicle. Firstly, the vehicle has been faultless over 20000 miles. It hasn't seen a Nissan dealer since we bought it. Running costs are very low, where Whatcar got their "running costs likely to be high" phrase from I'll never know, as we have averaged 40mpg over two years, road tax is £165 and a two year service ie, an oil & filter change was £95.00, by my local trusted garage. Tyre wear on the 18" wheels is very good, we shouldn't need to replace them before 35000 miles. It handles large loads well, tows well and can carry 7 people in comfort, as illustrated by taking 3 couples out to dinner last week. All the electrical equipment works faultlessly and the paintwork is still excellent. It is only front wheel drive but many assume it to be a 4wd. We fel we have made the right decision buying a vehicle made in Sunderland and we plan on keeping it for 5 years, so hopefully the next 3 years are going to be as faultless as the past 2 years. Well done Nissan and the lads and lasses at Sunderland.

    My car

    I have just passed 12 months of owning this vehicle and it hasn't put a foot (or wheel) wrong. I bought the 4WD version just in case I ever needed it. When the snow arrived in December mine was the only car that could get out of our road - without any un-nerving moments either! Very comfortable, very dependable, very nice to drive. Obviously, the driving style had to change in respect of corners, etc, but I am used to driving 4WDs so it wasn't an issue. The only small gripe I have is that the MPG isn't as good as I expected, but that's probably my heavy right foot. The diesel engine is really nice and punchy which surprises most people at the lights - including me. Hence the comment about my right foot. A fair bit of clatter on starting up, but it soon calms down. In short, a really nice car and I don't regret buying it one bit. Oh, and the satnav is the best I've ever used. I’ve just paid for the first annual service, which cost 250. A set fee it appears.

    My car

    I've owed mine for 18mths now and found it to be reliable, extremely comfortable and flexible. The 2 seats in the back are definately for small kids only although they are handy to have if you need the occassional use of the extra seats. Fuel consumption seems okay, I wasn't prepared to pay the extra for a diesel for the milage I do and insurance group is reasonable. Overall though I've been really pleased with the car, didn't enjoy the buying experience as I was messed around by the Nissan dealer, would have walked away and gone elsewhere if it wasn't the fact they offered me a huge discount which I couldn't get elsewhere, right place, right time (end of Jan with stock to shift - paid £12500 for a unregistered showroom model).
