Have sparked an interest in this recently, good/bad?
Does it seem like a decent price?

eco plus. 2.0 petrol!

its a 2.0 sve.

co2 emissions are 199g/km which means it's not very eco at all.

Selling it very soon. tbh the whole thing stinks of pi55 to me. pure flannel calling something like that economical. you will never see 50mpg. even official figures for that model are 34mpg optimistically.
if seller lies about this then he's probably not the kind of person you want to give your money to.
besides. nobody wants 2.0 qashqai. 1.5 and 1.6 are the reason they sell.

You are looking at mid 20s town driving mid 30s motorway max on that car. Plus it won't be exactly a sporty refined drive so why bother with a petrol, it won't be particularly fast either.

The 1.6 diesel is suited to these things. I actually hate the Qashqai but I see the appeal for many.

As a side point, the seller would say mass to sell it based on his claims.

If it is a 2008 why is it 710 motor tax annually? That is the rate on old cc system for pre 08 2.0 engines or does it correspond to one of the emissions bands?

Car tax changes only took effect during 2008 so there will be plenty of early registered 2008's on the older system.

Ah that's right actually, thanks,I remember something now. Didn't it change on 1 July 08 or something like that?

Cars registered between Jan 1st and 30 June 2008 can be taxed on whichever system is cheapest.

There is no point to buy a manual 2.0 Quasqai here. Only appeal of 2.0 lt engine is automatic gearbox.

And the auto in the Qashqai is a CVT box rather than a torque converter.
