Help with Finding Navara

scwazrh

I'm looking to buy a Nissan Navara 07/ 08 . It needs to be one with a few trimming s leather etc but I cannot find one for reasonable money. I started looking last October and 07 where making 10 - 11 k . Now that I'm ready to buy I can't find one with the right spec for any less than 13-14 k . Does anyone know where is a good place to look for one for reasonable money?

For Why?

My friend has a boat called "The Naked Lady" You're less likely to feel sea sick in her than you will in a Navara. FACT.

Some say that a God invented a Navara just to test the will of the people and if he was back on Earth and needed an excuse to laugh at people, it would be at the expence of those handing over actual cash for one of these God awful dogs. :P

Try up north op. Cheaper up there and better specced.

As you had one before you don't need me to tell you about the problems with the 2.5DI. Don't think it was in the newer shaped ones anyway.

Arn't they limited for commercial taxing, need a business with 3 employees? Open to corrections.

Those yokes and people using them privately f*cked up commercial taxing for everyone else. Bastards :mad: :mad: :mad:

It's either hilux , navara or isuzu and I would sooner eat my kn*b than listen to a tractor Isuzu everyday so I'm pretty limited when looking for a crewcab

I think the OP is looking for advice a little less vague than that!

Much as I love your rant's Ed, seriously? When my Ford dealer's flooded last year (or the year before) he said he'd rather wear wellies and walk than drive the Ranger demo they had.

We have a few Navara's doing huge mileage out west, and I don't think we are having any issues - they are 08/09 models. One of them is doing roughly 80k a year, and it's not all road use.

Did have some engine issue with an early 08 Pathfinder, last year. Felt like it wasn't getting enough fuel under heavy acceleration. Got it "fixed" by our local indy, untlil I buried it in 3rd on the way home and the issue re-occured. Sold without bothering to fix it again.
