X class 350d

So has anyone ordered one?

The whole Nissan components / platform sharing doesn't bother me as it shares chassis and a few parts. Most of the x350d will be Merc.

Currently had my hand forced as lease on 4x4 went back and we ended up with 2 Convertibles going into winter.

Had a drive in x220d which was way too slow but the 350d would mirror the performance of the last 4x4.

Seems a no brainer to put this commercial pickup through the business due to the all the associated benefits.

Thoughts (keep bhing to a minimum....)

Well you would have hoped so with a brand new chassis for the Navara in 2016 that has been strengthened by merc. That was the last ten Navara.

Well test drove the x350d today, can’t say the extra 8k for the engine seems worth it to me. It had more power and was smoother but just not sure..... back to the drawing board.

Sounds a bit disappointing from here! What are you not sure of? The cost, or the performance/overall package? Sounds like it didn’t exactly leave you overwhelmed

The whole package , cost v what you get. 42+vat for a pick up just grates on me. Think i’m Going to just buy a cheaper pickup for 15-20 k and see if a pickup is even right for my needs as we are all different....
