Nissan Qashqai Visia with 12 months MOT and Full service history - Brilliant Car
£4.430
Description
We bought the car pre-registered, but it only had around 40 miles on the clock when it was delivered to us. So we are classed as the second owner, but basically had it since new.
This has been my favourite car to drive out of the 3 previous cars I owned (Corsa, Escort, Megane) mainly due to its reliability. It was my wifes first car and is the reason she now drives a Nissan Juke (we would have preffered another Qashqai but it was too costly). For a car that is relatively high off the road, when compared to my previus car the Renault Megane, it handles just as any smaller car would; sticks to the road, doesn't lurch from side to side and accelerates well. Also, having the extra height means you have a better view of the road around you and if you are a bit frail, it is easy to get in and out off. And because it is a bigger (croosever type) car it has extra internal space which is great, especially if driving a long distance; like a small living room, with more storage space (boot) than our living room.
It has never broken down on us, or had any problem that wasn't wear and tear, unlike that ******* Megane. Although it is now 8 years old, we had planned to keep the car until it was atleast 12 (purchasing a new car every 6 years) but our circumstances have changed. The vehicle is cheap to run with road tax at £160/year, an average diesel consumption of around 44mpg and it cost £160 this year for insurance from Endsleigh.
We mostly used the car to go to the train station and back (5 miles) and weekend shopping trips. Prior to me leaving my work due to ill health, it was driven for about 6 months going back and forth to Glasgow. The car has also seen Wales, England and the North of Scotland from yearly road trips. In the last year the car has only been used intermittently, but has always been taken for a short drive most weeks.
We were always hoping that I would be on the mend, however, now it seems I wont be using the car for a while, so its a shame not to let someone enjoy it while it is still young.
The car has never been in any serious accidents, but has had a few scrapes; a slightly nervous high kicking cow (small indentation in front panel), the tightness of the Elliots car park with awkwardly build fence in Prestwick (scrape to the front light) and some mysterious seemingly uncontrollable door from an adjaced parked car (dent to passengers door). Of course none of them were my fault :).
As the car wasn't being used a lot lately we took it to our local garage, McKinnon Brothers, Dalry, who have both serviced and MOT'd it. It had new front disc brakes and pads fitted, a new front tyre and a new fuel primer assembly and fuel filter fitted. This will hopefully give someone who is buying the car some further piece of mind that it will optimistically last forever. The car has a full service history with the Citreon Arnold Clark garage in Linwood, which was previously Nissan. I am the registered keeper and owner of the car and there is no finance registered against this car.
If you have any queries or would like any more pictures please email, text or WhatsApp me. Please do not call, as I can struggle to answer questions. If you decide to view the car, it is at my parents house, where my nephew will happily let you see/test drive the car. If you feel you wish to talk to someone for peace of mind I can get my wife to call you and hopefully I can meet with you when the monies are being transeferred. The valuation is based on Whatcar's valuation service for our car in Average condition, this seems to be accurate, or of a lower price when compared to similar models on Gumtree. Therefore, we feel this is a fair price, but you are welcome to make an offer around this.
We also have a Nissan 64 plate Nissan Juke for sale, as my wife and I need to sell both, to free up some money to make the adaptations required to our house.
1.5 dCi Urban Silver Nissan Qashqai Visia comes with a trip computer, Bluetooth, electric windows, air conditioning with a glovebox cooler, six airbags, alloy wheels and a CD stereo. 16-inch wheels, metallic paint finish, black finish to the door mirrors, door handles and front grille.
