LeeRoyFC Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Hi all - nice to meet you. Been looking for a new car, and have settled on a Qashqai+2, picking it up tomorrow. Its £2,600, after part ex, and 111k miles. Just wondered if there was anything particular I should look out for before handing cash over? I've read about the fob, making sure it unlocks all 4 doors plus boot, but anything else? Look forward to being a member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Hi, welcome to the Club Just general inspection of anything you think needs checking but see if the wiper mechanism clunks when in operation as the joints wear on them Otherwise, look at service history and how clean oil is, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeRoyFC Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 Hi Trevor, thanks for this. Ended up buying the car yesterday, 2.0L Qashqai+2 Acenta. Drives real smooth, lovely and quiet, decent power, overall, very happy with it. One thing my wife has ordered is a new gear know as the other has worn - are these easy to replace? Gear knobs of old simply screwed off, but this has the lift handle for reverse, and I'm wondering how much trouble this may cause? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I believe it is a case of lifting it up from the shift lever but watch your face as it flies up .... been there and it hurt 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
