Going to view my first 4x4 tomorrow (D3 HSE). |
|
Going to look at a D3 tomorrow. I've never owned a 4x4 before and the nerves are starting
We've looked at and test drove quite a few, but this one looks the best candidate for our new kid mover/mud plugger.
Anything I should look out for.
It's a Black D3 2008 (08) HSE Ebony Leather. I can't wait (I'm starting to twitch). hehe.

It's got FSH, but thanks for the heads up about the software updates. But, what updates? What part of the car are they for? And why are they important to get done?
Excuse my ignorance, but this is my first Non-Nissan ( ) car. All my previous have just got an ECU with nothing else (no sat nav or anything). Basically running 2 x Primeras at the moment (1999/2000) and got an S15 Silvia being stripped in the garage ready for acid dipping and roll cage etc etc .

Man I can't sleep. I'll post more details after the drive tomorrow. Hopefully it'll go well.
I'm a modder at heart as I'm already having a look at BAS/BBS remaps LOL.
