    We will only let you continue to hang around here if you fix up your use of commas!

    A space after the comma, NOT before, please!

    We have a Navara at work, and I'm sorry, but I reckon it's a POS. No room in the back, useless engine braking, and totally gutless takeoff in high range on hills. Maybe the new ones are better.

    Bloody well better not, tis a pretty penny that has been spent towards this unit, and it better not have any probs for quite a few years or it will go

    And yes, i agree with the rear space issue, but as someone said, how often are the kids in the back, and the oldest boy should have his licence by the end of the year, so if he dont like it, take his own car! This newer model thus far seems quite pokey, has good take off, is fairly responsive, but as this is my first diesel, cant really compare with anything else, although, it has better power in some spots that had ole thumper changing back a gear or two

    And Ron, I shall endeavour to fix my comma problem, am only a two finger typer, and sometimes the thumb hits the space bar, out of habit, before i have hit the comma button

    And unfortunately that's about my impression of them as well, after 2 years with one as the work vehicle (2005 edition).

    Hey Mate,
    Just for interest I used to live in Rosewood for 10 years. At least you went Nissan and not another brand we will not mention here. Horses for courses but the old love/hate with the Landrover, you know..

    Live in two worlds I say.....

    I have noticed a bit over the last couple of years a few Aulro'ians have drifted towards the dark side and not replaced their 4wd's with Landrovers, when the time came to get into a new truck.

    Maybe it comes back to price I don't know. Just hope it doesn't turn into a trend here.
