Brodex used to have a Navaro as a show vehicle. Nice paint job and all.

Didn't see it at the NEC so I bet they've sold it now.

Worth a call as it looked great  :)

youd need a fuel bowser to tow behind it.   big japs ALWAYS drink fuel like no tomoro.

Can't disagree with that, getting about 20mpg!! Can get 25 on a run when back is empty and being very careful!!
If I was buying now when window cleaning is my main business, I would probably go for a van.

Yeah, I am tempted as well. A mechanic mate told me the Ford Ranger is a much better buy tho.

 Hi
  I am thinking of a navara, great alrounder and get a tow bar and a trailer and you can go pressure washing with it as well.

  i know there thirsty, but so is a vivaro or tranny.

  i ve heard the new model is much better on fuel as well. but 20,000 gulp!

 cheers

Mine is the D40  Dec 56 plate, so I think it is the new model.  Mine's auto so the manual might be better on fuel

Dont know owt about the Warrior but be careful with Navara's .... read up on the Navara Forums.

Sold a few of these when I was a car dealer NIGHTMARE.

Conrod thru block
Head Gasket
Gearbox
Driveshaft / Axle

and this was just all on 1 Navara

Hilux worth looking at

  Hi
  I have only been told excellent things about the nissan and how bulletproof the engines where.

  mind you i have heard the same about the toyotas and jeremy clarkson didnt manage to break the top gear one.

  i have had heard the l200 blows its head and valves every 50 000 or so.  i also now several who have had both warrior and navara and say the nissan is miles better drive and cab comfort.

 all second hand knowledge though!

 regards

 cheers roger

 i thought a 6x4 with caged sides and ramp would be ideal, pressure washer,  tank  hose lances whirlaway.

 should just about go in on the back of a navara perfect set up i think
