Nissan QX 1995-
  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    As a second-hand buy, this cannot be beaten. Top of the range luxury at clapped out Fiesta prices.

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Cheaper serviciing than any of its rivals. A bit thirsty but you can buy a lot of petrol with the savings to made in buying the car in the first place.

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Smooth, quiet, comfortable ride; excellent long distance cruiser. If you are used to one of the German rivals then you might find the ride a bit soft and not quite as positive, but many would prefer this. Not a 'nippy' car, women seem to hate it.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Effortlessly powerful V6 engine.

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Absolutely no problems at all.

    Image

    3 out of 5 3.0

    I think the car looks impressive, but many people, conditioned by German styling thin the car is bland. Not a car for show-offs or the style concious but ideal for wolves in sheep's clothing. In the US the image is rated highly and on a par with Lexus.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Seats have height and lumbar support adjustment, lots of legroom, quiet interior even at speed and smooth suspension. Makes for a comfortable and non-tiring ride.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Has a good security system fitted, but anyway this isn't the kind of car that thieves are interested in.

    Service

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Parts are quite inexpensive but dealership labour is expensive - go to an independent.
