Test Driven - Nissan Navara Double CabIve been looking to change My Racing Caddy for something a bit different, and i think i have found it.
at 174 BHP and loads of torque kcking in at 1500 rpm its rather a quick runabout. To be honest i was surprised at the Drift potential of these pickups. I didnt know what to expect on collecting from Desira Motor Co. As being used to Low Profiles and Modded everything on the racing caddy i wasnt sure it was my style. But as soon as i hit the back lanes, opening it up its great fun. Easy maintaining 80 in the twisty B raods, and 120 on the Southern bypass. It fits the bill for me I was surprised of the handling i was expecting terrible body roll, and bouncy bouncy. But far from it, it felt planted and not bouncy at all. It looks massive fromt eh outside, but from behind the wheel it doesnt feel that big, if anything it feels long, speacially when reversing. For a Off roader they have got it just right. Still deciding on the options, i am close to sealing a deal. some people will ask - why spend 26K on a Pickup truck ? Well you can claim back 40% in the first year (offsett against my TAX Bill) Tried it out on a very muddy field and had a bit of fun with it in 4wd. Its ideal for the Growing Family as we have a Son on the way (February) So 4 year old Daughter will have a brother still deciding on options......... Sat Nav/ electric leather seats/ heated / MP3 player head unit with blue tooth for phone. ???? THE WR1 RR DVD http://www.scoobycity.co.uk/wr1/phpBB2/ ... highlight=
Go for the Aventura brian, its very similar to the our discovery inside, there is no other pickup anywhere near at the moment.
Number 12 back with me after a 6 year break.
i bet there is a lot of bog down in that brian, 120mph, good job you did'nt see any of your friends out
Your daughter looks a little too short to drive it mate, best buy her a cushon
Oh, and i'll move the thread to the right place for you. Too petty to be a traffic warden...

Had the opportunity in a former life to go with Toyota to the Sahara for a week and test all their 4x4's. The pick-up was really fun to drive, despite the fact that it did not have the same power at all as the others. Drifting it over the dunes was just fenomenal fun ! With 174bhp and that huge torque, it must be great. Go for it !
mm got one on demo (again) at teh rooling road weekend -
so chice bring the audi or the navara ? THE WR1 RR DVD http://www.scoobycity.co.uk/wr1/phpBB2/ ... highlight=
Bring the Navara. Wear out the dealers car plus you'll see if you really do like it on a long trip.

How times change... ... i'm now negotiating on a Navara! Too petty to be a traffic warden...
yeah whatever. I'll believe it when i see you actually have it!!..what happened to the merc plan? you buying a new car is hilarious ! I think i've had 3 different cars in the time you;ve been looking
If any of you chaps are company directors running double cabs through your company, perhaps you can tell me the pro's and cons of it ?
Im currently running a car private, and just claiming mileage from my company, ive always thought this the best tax option.
The cheap tax rate for double cabs is due to end soon. You also need to prove to the tax man you need a double cab for work use, otherwise it will be taxed as a car on its CO2 output. Too petty to be a traffic warden...
Bollocks! I'm going to have to buy a Navara now to show Dan... Too petty to be a traffic warden...
The Merc went out the window when the salesman won't phone me back to take the order. I left 7 messages for him to call, then gave up! I know my car search must be the longest running joke on here but i hope to buy something soon. I'll even take the odd bet on it! Too petty to be a traffic warden...
