Run, Run, Run. stupidly bought one of those, and the CVT became noisy soon after, needed a rebuild. They must have the correct Nissan CVT fluid, if you do buy and want to service it, NZ CVT sent me a package of 2 filters, genuine Nissan Fluid for a reasonable price (about $200 from memory), easy enough to do at home. Apart from that bloody CVT, it was a really economical an comfy car. but personally I'll never touch a Nissan CVT again.Ruined a really nice car.

Cheap nasty cars with short lifespan. hence not sold new here. 2 airbags in 2006! That's just ridiculous and unworthy of your family frankly.

IMO -as a 7 seater they fall short compared to anything else out there. Fuel economy is great and as a 5 seater they are a comfortable vehicle. Unfortunately they basicly share the transmission with the 2.0l Primera so its a bit of a lottery if you get a good tranz or not. They are now on my list of cars I won't stock. I KNOW you won't believe me but the Toyota Sienta is MORE economical on fuel and has a LOT more useable space inside.

PLEASE make sure you do FULL due diligence. As a model they are fantastic. But that doesn't mean one abused car will be reliable.

I appreciate that mate but it still sucks. I hate hearing that stuff and not because of any potential fallout. --Its a pride thing.
