What kind of money is one of them?A iveco daily 4x4 makes most pickups look soft
Haven’t a clueWhat kind of money is one of them?
Many people who had a navara liked them, I have one and a Toyota invincible and the navara engine leaves it for dead.Doesn’t surprise me as virtually every model they have released has had a fatal flaw and you cant go on shafting your customers indefinitely. D22 popped engines for fun, Nissan denied all blame until embarrassed on Watchdog nationally but most buyers were left with a worthless pickup even if the engine didn’t blow because of its reputation. The d40 had chassis snapping problems again although they stepped up to their responsibilities better that time, their reputation was severely damaged. A lot of people wouldn’t go near them and theor residuals are the poorest of the sector because of this.
What sort of money? Pm me if you likeI’m glad I’ve bought a new Amarok today reading this thread.
I’m also hoping to get the option to buy my current one once the lease finishes in a couple of months, if anybody is interested? 18 plate highline 3.0 v6, auto, tow bar load liner, metallic grey, 35k miles.
4motion is a pretty poor 4wd system from what I've seen/heard Was pushing my elderly neighbours tiguan out last week in snow and only front wheels ever turned.Farmers will then buy Panel Vans, like their european farming cousins
VW T6 4motion anyone?
A van wont do the same work as a pickup. Like to see a van out through a muddy field with a quad trailer behind to gather up a new born calf or pullin a tri axle fully loaded with heavy cows

Vivaro is renowned for injectors welding themselves into the head and needing a new head as an example, isn't the Trafic the exact same beast?
Buy new and replace when warranty expires or buy used on the understanding a big bill is very possible. Just the same as pickups.
I have a Navara and a Vivaro, repairs on the Vivaro are equal to purchase price. Navara hasn't broken yet
Perhaps this is the nirvana for the pick up as we know it! Unless the electric ones can cut the mustard and attract new customers
Iveco can tow 3.5 ton but the 4x4 sprinters I'm fairly sure are only rated at about 2 ton.What a load of rubbish
Of course it will
The big Sprinters and Iveco can pull some gear
Plus you can get them in 4wd and with diff lock
Similar list as with all modern vehicles, gearboxes and engines mostly. Vivaro is renowned for injectors welding themselves into the head and needing a new head as an example, isn't the Trafic the exact same beast?

Renaults are unreal how easy they are on fuel. Know someone with a opel van. He says it's a Renault engine. Extremely easy on fuel. Same lad has a Toyota land cruiser that physically is smaller bur 12 mpg worse on similar runs nó matter how easy you drive it.
That the newest shape barbarian or the one beforeI had a naff-arra for a month and then sold it because it was absolutely abysmal. I then got a barbarian. Kept the barbarian but also treated myself to a raptor last year.
The raptor has spent more time at the dealership getting repairs than it has with me. (Its in dealership now).
Me and my barbarian however have a sub / dom relationship. I kick it in the balls and it says thank you and begs me for more!
Yep, got a New LWB RWD 150hp Master at the beginning of November to collect from Glasgow daily for Leeds. It's doing 30+MPG ! Got 35,000 miles on it now..
Its 2018That the newest shape barbarian or the one before
