I've just ordered as a replacement one of the few remaining Nissan Navara Dual Cab V6 Turbo Diesel STX 4x4's. As posted earlier, I was really wanting a V6 engine and managed to get a Turbo Diesel with this choice. These days the choices for a V6 TD are very limited. Having said that, happy with my purchase here as the next best option to a WK2 which I loved as a general purpose 4by, but I want to explore a bit further and deeper than I was prepared to drive the WK2.
To everyone on here, enjoy the rest of your Jeep journey. Who knows, one day I may be back

Mmmmmm. Not sure whether I would have chosen Nissan.
I know of 3 people that have had them and would never go there again.
Stuffed diffs, clutches etc etc etc.......
Hopefully you get a good run out of yours.
Cheers, Craig

Yep, the clutches on the manuals were known to be flakey, but I'm guessing this is an auto with the renault engine....

Thnx Hutch, not much at all. I've seen the same pics.
One of the reasons I'm going with the flat hardtop (no canopy or roof rack).
So just the Waeco 50l, a dual battery and a swag.
The on the back a well balanced off road camper trailer.
