1996 Nissan QX SEL review from UK and Ireland

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing, to date. The car still feels like it rolled off the production line this morning.

I've searched all over and I can't find a single fault - not even a bit of loose trim.

General comments?

I'm very impressed. Its not as quick or as comfortable as my SAAB was but it is very refined and very well built. I only bought it because I couldn't find a decent replacement SAAB (where have all the good ones gone??).

V6 is a Japanese marvel. Not brilliantly quick but so so quiet and refined. Arguably the best I've ever come across and I've tried the usual stuff (M-B, BMW, Lexus, etc).

It is anonymous but that doesn't bother me. Depreciation? Who cares. I bought it for less than 10k. Not bad for a 3 year old car that costs 30k new and has done less than 12,000 miles a year.

Equipment levels excellent and the CD system is the best I've ever heard. Quality of the leather is the best I've come across too.

Nissan approved used scheme is brilliant (good warranty, RAC cover, free MOTs, exchange scheme, etc). I feel like I've bought a new car.

Any downsides? Haven't really found any yet. The interior is a bit sombre I guess and the boot space is not exactly class-leading. Whoever styled it had very little imagination, though its overall size gives it some presence.

I thought SAABs were the best thing since sliced bread but this is quite brilliant.
