Hi has anyone driven a Nissan Pathfinder, would you rate it? Need to chop in my Espace and have a 4x4 itch to scratch! Also like the disco 3 but Nissan seems much better value for money.
Cheers,
Jon

I think it's Swerni who has a 4.0 Pathfinder so it may be worth getting in contact with him, I can tell you about the Navara, but I don't know quite how similar they are drive-wise...

I love it!!!!!

The petrol one is as rare as hens teeth.
It's got the engine from the 350z but enhanced to 4l.

Generally very well made.
Very well equipped - parking cameras etc
Reliable
Tonnes of space. We took it to France last year. 4 people and all the luggage you could ever need. The bags weren't even above the level of the rear seats.
All the back seats fold flat giving circa 6 ft of load space.

I've done 16k in the last year in mine and can't fault it.

At the end of the day it's a Datsun so cheap as chips to service.

Mine does drink rather a lot but I don't pay for the fuel wink
Snowdon and back this week end should be about £130

ps if you want a have a look closer look and play with one you are more than welcome to pop over

Thanks Swerni, thats what I hoped someone would say bounce, although the petrol is very rare I would go for this if I find a good one. We have a smaller car for the local trips (& TVR for fun smile ), so this would be for the longer family trips and weekends away etc

I still like the Disco 3, but they really seem to be holding their value at the moment.

Where abouts are you as I wouldn't mind taking you up on the offer to take a look, I am based near Wokingham.
Cheers,
Jon
