    Yep but it's a 13 model I love it.

    I think there may have been issues with the earlier ones I will check with DH and get back to you

    My parents have had two but both were older models than what you're looking at. They were happy with them, good all-rounders, handled off road okay. Mum had an accident in one - a big kangaroo landed on her bonnet but the car held up with minimal damage. Mechanically they were fine, they ran up over 200,000Kms in both and all they needed was regular servicing. They downsized from a Patrol and other than noticing them being a smaller car, I don't think they really felt any difference performance wise although the pathfinders weren't put through any serious four wheel driving. HTH.

    We won't be doing serious 4x4 stuff but it will be towing a small van. 1500kg.

    2008 is out of our budget, and this one is just out of it but we can get the extra together for this model

    We've had ours for around 12 months. No issues to date *touch wood*. It's a 2006 model. We went from '96 hatchback, to a patrol that was older than me! Then got the pathfinder. I love it
