Would I get a good deal on a Qashqai?
Hi have a tight budget say 14 -15 which includes trading in toyota corolla automatic2005.Looking at Nissan Qashqai would i get a good deal at this price range.Does it have to be diesel and what engine size can i live with which wont effect performance.
Our answer:
Hi Derek,
It doesn't have to be diesel but to be honest that's probably what you'll end up getting - there aren't many petrol Qashqais on sale and anyway, the old 1.6 Qashqai was not a great car - too slow and too thirsty. The good news is that the 1.5 diesel version is peppy to drive and very economical so it's win-win.
